OFF SHORE: Riley Palling from Cranbourne South recently landed his first swordfish locally. (PS)

There are still plenty of fish keen to latch onto a hook if you are dedicated and patient.

Lakes Entrance – Bream are still plentiful, biting on fresh baits, whilst for flathead give hardbody lures, fresh prawn and soft plastics a try. Prawns are still in the lakes but are declining in numbers. King George whiting are in Reeves Channel also taking fresh prawn. Offshore for snapper, gummy and mako shark.

Lake Tyers – For something different, try eel fishing, using rod and reel or hand line, early morning or after dark are the best times with pippies as bait. The entrance is still open.

Metung – Kingfish are around the jetties, whilst the boardwalk has salmon, trevally, pinkies and bream.

AWARDS: Tony Warhurst was the equal winner of the 2024 Gippsland Lakes Fishing Club biggest gummy shark, sharing the award with Luke Van Der Peet. (PS)
LAKE TYERS: Brandon Scott tapped into some nice flathead over the weekend. (PS)
LAKE TYERS: Neil Simpson was all smiles after landing this healthy specimen. (PS)
