I know someone with a charter boat around my area, I'm itching to organise a day in the future, know I know you and Mr T are interested I'll get my r's into gear.

Also love fresh water fishing . Nothing better than chasing a rainbow trout and having a good fight to get him. Just hope we get a lot more rain to fill the rivers back up a bit more .

I love saltwater fishing. Generally around Clifton Springs in Port Phillip Bay. I'm lucky in that swmbo also likes fishing. We go out in a little 15.75 foot fibreglass runabout. Flathead, garfish and whiting are our usual target.

Had a mad couple of seasons chasing snapper, they are good fun to catch however you need to put a lot of hours in and why bother when the whiting and flatties taste better. I also love catching and eating squid, the best part is dodging the ink as you drop them in the bucket.

i'd come i have only ever done it once fish that is, but ever since i moved here i have always wanted to learn.....you know being ozie and all that

bugger, repost

me and a mate were supposed to be taking his boat out in westernport on sunday then we saw the weather report

saltwater for me, grew up near the shore and my dad had a boat so that's where we went :bigthumb:

Don't think I ever been freshwater fishing so wouldn't know where / how to start

Yep, Saltwater for me too. My brother has a tinny and we go out on the Port Hacking when we get the chance {I live on the Georges River...but wouldn't eat what i caught, so no bother)

freshwater seems like too much hard work. There's no way I could get the swing of the fly fishing technique - tricky. Went once with a friend when I was living in Albury - we walked bloody miles along this creek/river. I thought we were going out for a relaxing fish , oh no - we walked continuously, sneeking (trying to sneek) up on unsuspecting fish.

Respect to you fly fisher persons!!!
