Gales
have affected fishing conditions lately with weed coming
in from the rough conditions in Bass Strait. The channel
is reasonably good. Very little has been caught, only
a small salmon or two and one lucky fisher caught a
gummy about one metre in the middle of the afternoon. |

We
have had every type of weather this week but the surf
has remained amazingly calm. Fishers have not done very
well overall but a couple of lucky ones managed to be
there at the right time and caught a swag of salmon,
mainly small ones though. Fishers next to them caught
absolutely nothing.
Channel and water good, all we need is some warm weather. |
