Hi guys. Just got back from lakes entrance and the fishing was so slow. The metung area was dead as other than small bream. Tambo not good either. Decided to hit surf beach knowing I'd get salmon. Caught 3 35cm in 5 mins at sunrise tuesday. On way back stopped at Reeves landing and had crabs taking bait. Decided to take some mussels off rocks. Wife has cooked them in tomato base sauce. So good. So I must ask. Does anyone know where a place is to get mussels close to moenington peninsula. Cheers.

Don't think you're allowed to collect shellfish etc from the intertidal zone in PPB so you'd be better off buying them

liters is right intertidal zone off limits in PPB, I buy mine from 6 to 8 bucks a bag at the fish mongers. or a large box when I'm at Portarlington pier early morning when the mussel farm boat docks.

I went for a fish u the Lake today. 1 KGW on the first cast, only 31cm, then 2 School whiting, then zippo . So just a sign of things to come as it warms up. Should be a few flatties around within a month.
