Port Phillip bay in Victoria offers some of the most productive fishing waters in Australia. The waters are famous for the mighty snapper which migrate annually but also offer amazing fishing for whiting, squid, flathead, gummy shark and reef fish year round.

The natural shelter of the bay offers means there are countless fishing options even in less than favorable weather conditions.

Shark fishing takes place in Bass Strait where we target Mako Sharks also known as Blue Dynamite as they often leap clear of the water when hooked.

Thresher sharks also move throughout the area, and will test any anglers skill. The Thresher’s speed and acceleration is powered by a tail that is the same size as their body, used to stun their prey.

Blue sharks are often encountered, and it is not uncommon to see 5 or 6 sharks approaching the boat at the same time.
