Western Port

(Jan - May)

What We Target

From January through to the end of May, Western Port offers exceptional fishing variety including; sharks, whiting, snapper, salmon, trevally and squid

January, February and March is the ideal time to fish for BIG gummies, thresher, seven gill and school sharks in Western Port, although you will still catch sharks of good size, from January right up until July

Western Port is a haven for King George whiting up to 50cm all year round and even during the chillier months of June, July, August and September

Many anglers also look forward to the annual run of elephant fish in March, April and May
