Theyre everywhere in Gippsland lakes at this time of year? Or do you mean west of the prom
The Eastern Australia Current Pushes past the southern end of the prom towards Tassie so West of the prom its highly unlikely theres any prawns.

No worries it would be great to have prawns close to home. If your interested in hiking I imagine the creek at sealers cove if open would have seasonal prawns.

I have seen prawns caught at Mornington. So no reason they cant come west of the prom.

Can confirm zero prawns in shallow inlet. Zero that I seen anyhow.

Heaps of whiting as usual and plenty or gars and flounder to net/spear. Great night

Sounds like a top spot for some spearing. Will keep that in mind :)
