Didn't go fishing for too long, but still would of expect an extra bream or two and a pinkie or snapper would of been nice! I threw in some crushed bread and within 2mins had a small bream on my line, 5mins after that we hooked a big flathead which was a great surprise! Bream was caught on chicken and the flathead on squid. Thankyou!

Started at the hotties, nothing there at all. My brother and I decided to go to the Yarra. Water was very clear and bream aggressively hitting the plastic. I'll be there in summer.

It was an alright time fishing. We saw the big bream around 40cm-50cm under the wharves near the fish and chip place but they weren't biting. So then we moved to another place where the fish were biting every second on the chicken and barramundi. The first place we fished was quiet for about 30 mins, then when my dad came back from getting a coffee they really fired up, but they were all undersize. Threw everything back.

All the small ones released. There were heaps of big fish there but they just wouldn't bite. The little fish got to the bait first. Good fun anyway.

A few bites but nothing hooking on. The tide was running out, so I was hoping for a fish, but nothing. Then went to Kerferd Road Pier, read the report.
