Autumn is here, and I always find this time of year fascinating in Port Phillip Bay. The bay is quieter now, with much of the boat and kayak traffic really starting to slow down. However, March through to May are some of my favourite fishing times of the year....

Today marks the start of our Labour Day long weekend, and the weather looks amazing, so hopefully you can get out and wet a line and catch a decent feed. Good variety of species fishing well right now. King George Whiting remains excellent; however, the gummy sharks and squid...

Some great land-based fishing this past week at Portarlington break wall for King George Whiting. Also, a few gummy sharks, pinkies, and salmon landed here as well. There have also been plenty of good-sized pinkies biting land-based at Avalon. It’s a bit of a walk to the fishable grounds,...
