Big Salmon wantted

Post by Ferris » Tue Nov 29, 2016 9:58 am

Hey guys, I'm Ferris. I have been chasing big salmon for years around Melbourne, but haven't ended up with a decent size one.

Would anyone in this forum like to provide me some tips or famous locations for big Australian salmon (over 50cm).

Thanks a lot.

Artillery rock along the great ocean road is worth a shot.
Last time I was in Apollo bay on my way back stopped and saw them pulling in big ones :P
