Hi guys,
a couple fo things:
Firstly, this site is great ~ loads of info and some fantastic stories ~ so glad I found it!!!
I'm just taking up fishing again after moving to Aus about 6 years ago and going into a self imposed (golf) exile after finding the fishing too different from the stuff I was doing in the UK (specimen carp, pike, tench, etc), but I'm just starting shore/estuary fishing here in Victoria and am loving it!!!!
I note that most of you guys fish in Queensland (moving there one day for sure) and NSW, but was wondering if you had any tips (other than move NORTH) for a novice sea angler?
Also, I need help identifying a fish I caught this morning from the rocks at Williamstown - it was similar to a bream in shape, had a mouth like a Luddrick, but had some sensational red shading on it's flanks - weighed about 1KG and fought like a maniac.
Cheers guys & look forward to fishing your turf on my next trips north.
