The fish continue to bite regularly, leaving plenty of anglers with smiles on their faces.

Lakes Entrance: Salmon are chasing metal lures throughout the lakes system, while prawns remain plentiful. Whiting behind Flannigan Island are biting on live sandworm and pipis. Lake Bunga Beach is producing decent-sized salmon and snapper, while offshore anglers are landing flathead, gummies, gurnard, and mackerel on a mix of baits.

Lake Tyers: The system continues to offer great fishing and prawning, with good-sized flathead being caught on soft plastics. Bream are taking vibration blades, and tailor are chasing pilchards.

Metung: Mulloway are being caught from the boardwalk, with the occasional kingfish also taking lures.

OFFSHORE: Cullun and crew onboard Dick H were rewarded for making their third trip to Lakes Entrance with this magnificent swordfish. (PS)
