Fishing Victoria Forum

Calling all trout masters or anyone. Trout rivers are closing soon for them to spawn and all (in Victoria it's the Queens birthday weekend in June), often a lot of people are out there trying to get the big spawning trouts with various methods. Trout can be picky at times but math the hatch often wo...

Why breams in Docklands and yarra (around Docklands) are so bloody hard to catch on lures! Making me so f*ckin angry! I work in Docklands, convenient to fish there. Bait fishing for breams are soooooo easy, then they're 1000x harder on lures. I caught breams in Docklands years ago on TT switch blade...

On calm days try bait under float. Its fun to see the float gets dragged.

But one repeated notion is sometimes the aggres...

Plus I have to have a few of each, to equip my kids too. I used to criticise the blokes who would spend mega buck...

If you're going in Nov Dec, have some elk hair caddis dry fly. During the day, I like nymph-ing in rivers. Get some br...
