Fishing slows down

by
12 September 2024
in Local News

Fishing is beginning to slow as the September winds create havoc, however there are still some nice stories around if you can find the right spot.

Marlo – Even though fishing is also on the quiet side around this system, there’s the odd bream and mullet to be had. Head offshore for flathead.

Bemm River – Try the channel for salmon using lures, bream are in the lake, taking local prawn. The entrance remains open as at the date of publication.

Mallacoota – The bream classic was recently held with a quantity of decent sized fish being landed over the weekend. This is a catch and release event.

Lakes Entrance – Fishing is still slow around the area. Surf beaches for salmon chasing lures. Dolphins and seals are starting to be seen in the entrance.

Lake Tyers – Salmon are being landed off the surf beach, using lures. With the colder water temperatures fishing is slow in the system. The entrance is still closed as at the date of publication.

Mitchell River – Bream are around the river mouth, biting on local prawn and cut crab. Try from The Cut to Shadoof Lodge for mullet using sandworm and along the Silt Jetty at Two Bells for bream and flathead with fresh white bait.

Tambo River – Around the mouth of the river for nice sized bream, best bait being mussels, and soft shell crab. For mullet try worm, shrimp, glassies and lures. Nice sized bream are being landed all along the river.

Nicholson – Best spots for bream are around the river mouth, and the two Bridges, also give the jetties a go using local prawn and sandworm.

Metung – Chinamans Creek and Boxes Creek are showing good results, also try around the town jetties.

Paynesville/Hollands Landing- Hollands Landing is producing nice bream, preferred bait being spider crab.

Omeo High Country – Trout season reopens for all Victorian rivers and streams from Saturday, September 7.
