Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
Reports of snapper movements have been slowly starting to pick up around both bays, as fish push their way in through the entrances. While the water temperatures in both bays is still cold, the snapper will continue to move in over the next few months, with the consistent fishing really kicking off sometime around early October. For anglers raring at the bit to get into them there can be long sessions involved finding fish and then waiting for them to eat, so the hot fishing isn't quite here yet but on its way. A few anglers fishing around the entrance of Westernport have been picking up the odd fish here and there as they pass through and hold up for a few days.
Customer Ferdi has put in a couple of sessions from the shore around the entrance of Westernport, with some mixed success. A few fishless sessions with runs and bites but no solid hookups had been frustrating until he landed a nice fish of 70cm on pilchard earlier in the week. Ferdi has now got the monkey off his back for the season and can expect a few more reds from the rocks over the coming months.
Customer Zac normally does well on the snapper and during the week he fished out around Western entrance in search of some leatherjacket and a possible red. Zac fished with pilchard and squid to land a feed of leatherjacket, a small gummy and also a couple of smaller snapper.
