The whiting and rock cod was caught near the bridge. The trevally, salmon and flathead were caught at sheepwash oposite the boat ramp on the outgoing tide. All caught on freshly cut strips of raw chicken. Try some raw chicken about 35mm long about 10mm thick at the Barwon River. |

Was fishing off the bridge between the 3rd and 4th landing, caught the large salmon at the end of the inflow. Using light tackle so couldn't lift it out of the water. Had to walk it to the the sand and beach it. |

We went to black rock at Barwon Heads and caught parrot fish. Moved at a sandy spot and caught the shakes there on a little tinney. Hell of a night. |
