Very slow around williamstown and altona. I have 4 donuts to prove it
Was thinking about trying around there tomorrow!
Might give it a miss now :rf:
Have a sound around Fawkner beacon.

There were boats drifting in pitch black darkness at cardinal mark, they were drifting between the anchored boats.

Might try sounding around dumb Joe marker area next fish.

I was out last night again around Altona reef and Willy footy ground with nothing to show for it. Couldn't sound up a fish to save my life let alone catch one. I was checked by fisheries at Altona boat ramp around 9.30 last night and I asked them what they inspected and even they said its been a little slow from what they've seen.

Hey bowl,

Have you had much luck with the snapper around Dumb Joe before?

I was talking about that spot while heading back in the last time I went out with my mate. Might give it a crack next time I head out with the boat :)
Cheers :tu:

Not generally keen on crossing the shipping lanes myself but you cant keep doing the same stuff and expect a different result, I suppose good luck.

T11 is the green channel light on the StKilda side of the Channel opposite the Gellibrand shoal marker which is on the Willi side. You cant fish on the green channel marker so outside the yellow lights if that makes sense.

Look on the Navionics web app and it labels the shipping markers .
