Port Phillip snapper roaming

 | By Seamus on 4/24/2014 1:15:32 PM | Views (120)

Snapper reports in the bay have been quiet at the moment, but there have still been some fish roaming about. The areas off Mt Martha, Black Rock and around Williamstown have been worth a look for fish to about 3kg. Customer Benny caught a lovely fish over around 3.5kg in the Yarra last week while fishing for other fish. The hungry red smashed a mullet and took off like a train. The lower river around Williamstown has been holding a few reds in the 1 - 2kg range, but the schools have been moving around constantly. Customer Ferdi has been catching loads of pinkies from the shore around Mordialloc. Most of the fish he has been catching have been in the 25 - 35cm mark, but he has landed fish to 48cm like this one using whole pillies. Casting out a long distance has also been the key.

James from Unreel Fishing Charters has been getting into a few nice pinkies with customers during the week. James has found plenty of smaller fish but he is also getting table sized fish amongst the schools. Up around Black Rock there have been loads of fish in the 30cm size range, with a few of James' bigger fish in the 3kg mark. Baits of pilchard and squid have been effective, also moving around constantly to find the schools of better size fish can be the key.
