Port Phillip slowly starting to produce

 | By Seamus on 8/21/2014 8:05:20 AM | Views (92)

Port Phillip is starting to see a few boats out searching for early season snapper. From lots of reports there are good numbers of fish starting to school up from 14m through to 21m of water. Most of the early season fish will hold on structure for a while, but still take a little bit to bite well. There have also been anglers landing a few of these early season fish, like customer Danny. Danny found a patch of nice fish marked up off Frankston in around 19m of water. After waiting for a while a few fish turned on, and Danny managed to land a couple in the 5kg range on squid heads. 

Customers Ben and Jacob headed out from Carrum to look around for a few snapper. While they did find some fish, the schools were bunched up tight 'christmas tree' style - which normally indicates less active fish. While the did put baits down they ended up with a few smaller pinkies, flatties and a 6ft sevengill shark - an indication that the water temperature is still quite cold.
