Fishing Victoria Forum

Budget info would be helpful. The little stradics are tops.

Thanks for the tip guys. I’ll definitely grab some and start trying them out. Blows my mind, anywhere you drop a line there is a bite, a catch some action. And then I think, I can go to the piers here and Vic for weeks and not even a bite. I blame the piers in vic, but it’s just probably me who can...

Mate, there is some seriously good fishing in that area.

Balcombe Beach Mt Martha.

Some guys got a decent one a few years back.

But in seriousness, any unobstructed Surf beach is a reasonable chance, or if you get a reasonable day any of the assorted south facing rock ledges.

Drifting amongst the moorings just out the front of the boat ramp for KGW / squid / flatties.

The allegience II is an excellent rod and extremely good value for money. I've not used a defiance.

Nah that's on the other side out near Ventnor but it's the same deal. Cast a spike about a metre and a half under a float. Wait. Squid.

Not a complicated game at all.

Yeet out some squid spikes at Cleeland Bight if the wind is ok for it. This is great for monster squid Also whiting are Cat bay / ventnor on the other side of the island Ok cool I'll bring two setups. 11ft rod for squid. 1m under float you reckon? And a 9ft medium light rod for whiting. I picked up...

Medium overhead, bait/trolling/jigging: Daiwa Demon Blood B56-6/8 ($389.99) 2-speed Talica 12 ($695.00) 65lbs braid How would this outfit go for Vic/NSW shelf fishing? A fair bit undersized for marlin, swords and barrels? the lack of line capacity for swords would struggle too? Carl uses the Talica...
