There is some great fishing in Western Port Bay right now with king george whiting, squid and gummy sharks on the chew; however, the best fishing this past week was outside WP heads with school tuna, kingfish and gummy sharks fishing well. We have a warm week forecast and...

We’re finally getting some weather that resembles summer, as this week has quite a few days in the low and mid 30s. It will be a windy start to the week, but it should be very pleasant after that. Land-based fishing has been very solid in recent weeks around...
