Sea of red

Some nice snapper have been slowly making their way into the catches of local anglers.With some warmer weather on its way the fish should be making their presence felt around the Eastern shores of the bay. The top end around Brighton and Port Melbourne have been holding good numbers of school fish running up along the edge of the main shipping channel. Rough weather brings these fish in close around the vast grassbeds and mudflats of the top end where they can be picked off by using baits of fresh squid, pilchard and even large prawns. Customer John has been fishing the top end of the bay and has seen some nice fish to 4kg from the piers. Pilchard and squid have been the best baits for land based guys, with this particular fish falling to fresh squid.


Around the top end of Westernport the fish are starting to come on also, with anywhere from Warneet through to the back ‘finger’ channels worth a really good look for a red or two. Customer Joel had a fish close by to Joes’ Island during the week to land fish to around 4kg on fresh baits. Freshly caught couta was the pick of the baits, and good because they are normally about in numbers through the top end at this time of year.
