Maybe they were silver whiting? They have no size limits. I've caught whiting on small 2" metal vibes before, slow rolled. Maybe give that a try next time. Thanks eddyt, pretty sure they were juvenile whiting. Long, thin, silver, with a few spots - see attached pic (from a fishing ID site, not my p...

hi andybuck, do you have any pics of the whiting you caught? I only ask because Ive fished those exact rocks before and never been lucky enough to catch one let alone see anybody catch a KGW! Cheers for the report Hey shazdoggg, sorry no pics as I was wading in surf and didn't take my phone (risk o...

Any tips on location? I know everyone's keen to keep productive spots secret but without even a hint it's just bragging! I just had a fun whiting session down the Great Ocean Road on Dec 23rd, report (with Google Earth pics/location) here: http://www.fishing-victoria.com/viewtopic.php?f=160&t=17136 ...

Spent 3 days at Cumberland River Holiday Park just before Christmas. Thanks to some tips on this forum, took the rod 'n' reel down hoping to catch some whiting. Tips I'd gleaned were: Fish last 1-2 hours of outgoing/1st hour of incoming tide Aim for gutters/channels where the whiting will be feeding...

Cheers for tips I figure if I walk from the Westgate bridge to Sorrento I'll probably get at least 1 flathead, but would like to narrow it down a tad! May try Patto river thanks Gav. May also try around Mordi thanks Freakazoid. Any other location tips welcome (besides Brighton pier - I don't know if...

Hi all Now that the weather's fining up, I'm thinking about heading down the bay again. Have had bugger all luck from the various piers, despite following all of the advice on the forums. Repeated trips for donuts (or toadies/1 x banjo) to Station pier, Kerferd Rd, St Kilda and Brighton using squid/...

Thanks all Cunningham's on the to do list, but wanted to try the other spots first. Loads of people fishing/cars on Cunningham when I went past around 10am. Around St Helen's boat ramp also meant to be ok - may check next next trip This was another link I used - good info about fishing with SP's: ht...

Sick of the crowds and doughnuts in the bay, I made my first trip down to Geelong today to explore land based options around Geelong/Corio bay. Only had the morning off so had to cram in a few spots. A great find while researching online last night was the Geelong Fishing Show on 94.7FM, and replaye...

Moderate Southwesterly wind - check Overcast conditions - check Just past 2nd shelter, rods both sides - check 2 hours either side of high tide - check Pilchards & squid strips - check Running sinker and paternoster rigs - check End result - nothing. No bites No fish Untouched bait on hooks, all mor...

Nice catch, Just curious, what bait were you using? I've been down there a bit lately, with pilchards, squid, and even tried a bit of chicken, only caught 1 ray and one small banjo. Can also re-iterate, don't go when the weather's fine. Was down there on ANZAC morning, beautiful sunny still day, not...
