Re: Port Melbourne Snapper

Great vid Alex!
That bigger one you got that got you in the thigh, how big do you reckon that one was? Looked like a nice fish mate.
Cheers

Re: Port Melbourne Snapper
Havent had a chance to check out the video in full yet, ill try to finish it later.
Even though i often launch from Newport i have only tried to fish that spot once with a couple of mates, unfortunately on that trip one of may mates was new to fishing and doesnt know how to cast so it only took a few minutes to realise that he was not going to have much fun in that spot so we took off down to Willy and bagged out on squid (IIRC) which he loved and he got in some casting practice too.
I really want to try it again.. does it hold pinkies all year round normally?

Went there a few weeks ago with a few mates, there are still fish there, most were just size and under but my mate got a decent model. Lucky he had 20lb leader as it was in the middle of it all and tried to brick him on a few pylons
