Tackle World Cranbourne & Mornington Weekly Fishing Report For August 15th 2019

Congratulations to Rialeigh Mathe and Jordy Watts on your 144kg barrel tuna caught out from Port Macdonnell, you are this weeks’ Catch of the Week.

PAUL'S FISHING

Paul Worsteling and the IFISH TV crew headed to Townsville where they hooked up with local young gun Luke Neill and chased some Townsville brutes. The guys fished local rivers and landed some cracking barra and mangrove jacks using Squidgies prawns and shads. The crew then headed over to Magnetic Island where they jumped on board with Northern Conquest Charters for a spot of offshore reef fishing and were treated to some incredible catches including large mouth nannygai, spangled emperor, red emperor, golden trevally and many more. The highlight was hooking into an estimated 100-150kg spinner shark that came to the surface to do a number of jumps and barrel rolls. To finish off the trip they headed back over to Townsville where they jumped in a helicopter to a remote and private location and caught some fantastic barramundi to 75cm.
