Went and had a crack at Bouchier Channel (WPB) a couple of weeks ago and couldn't lose a bait....stopped of at Middle Spit for a couple of flatties on the way home.
Couple more weeks and I reckon they'll be on! :thumbsup:
A couple of week and they will definitely be on!
I mean it’s usually around that time I start catching them landbased. But this season will be putting in more time from the boat :)

I’ve been out 3 times so far with no luck yet Matt.
Yesterday got a few pinkies though.
Have you been out yet?
Might be going again tonight.
Cheers :thumbsup:
you got some pinkie that better then noting. :thumbsup: Snapper might come late September I think, it possible. You should try mount martia and frankston that where snapper mostly are the locals snapper while other snapper trying to get in to Port Phillp bay and western port for breed season. They are many possibility of snapper, are coming soon but we can't nail this accurate. The only thing would help is we would know this by word of mouth, report or someone is catching a Lb near CBD. that when snapper are ready in. Or mega Burley.
Thank you brother! :thumbsup:
I do usually give those places a crack :)
So you’re next trip out is on the 13th?

Yeah, I going get some Burley. this is have to work or may not be a snapper but there have to be something come see this burley tail that we make. Any thing would smell those 1 a way kilo. Hopefully someone show up 13, to help me for mega Burley adding they old bait and meat sausage block burley with tuna oil and my pallet. This would attract local snapper hopefully The plan will works

During period Full moon and New moon tides because those affect the fish more then anything. Also the high tides alway come at afternoon In theory new moon, would get some squid near coast line at night because of pier light attracting them, therefore snapper would follow the squid but Full moon i don't know how it affect the bait fish. Western wind is the best. the tides I like It depend on the fish some are like low tide and drop tide but snapper alway high tide and rising for pier fishing.

Thinking of having a yak session at ricketts point in the coming weeks, hoping for some nice pinkies and salmon. off chance of an early season snapper but from what i've seen they seem to start turning on during late october early november round there.

Pinkies are around in the reef areas of black rock/Ricketts pretty much all year round mate :)

Sounds good, will have a crack soon enough. Hoping that the forecasted rain passes quickly so I can get back out there :)
