Tackle World Cranbourne & Mornington Weekly Fishing Report For July 11th 2019

Shaun Furtiere from Think Big Fishing Charters didn’t disappoint for his customers in Western Port last week with some nice whiting caught by Dennis, Declan and John. Shaun also had a number of gummy charters that all produced some cracking fish.

OFFSHORE

Gerry Morsman and Julian Rennie fished offshore chasing some big gummies in 40 metres of water and landed 2 crackers at 16kg and 20kg each.

Chris Cassar fished offshore last week on a guide session and managed some cracking gummy sharks as well as a surprise catch of a saw shark.

FLINDERS

Mario Dugonjic and Bill Adamopoulos fished Flinders at first light during the outgoing tide and managed a few nice calamari in 7 metres to 10 metres.

Dylan Gussenhoven headed out off Flinders and managed a few solid calamari in 2 drifts, well done mate.

TORTOISE HEAD

Aaron Khor fished with family near Tortoise Head last week and managed some fantastic whiting and a thumping squid.

NORTH ARM

Kane Karayannis fished with Døm Giłlõt last week and managed a magnificent gummy that was released after a quick couple of photos.

TYABB BANK

Hux Fysh and a mate had a great session on the Tyabb Bank calamari in 3 to 4 metres on the weekend using Shimano Sephia jigs in 3.5 size and silver whiting under a float. Their biggest hood was over 45cm.

CARDINIA CREEK

Holly Palmer had a great session at Cardinia Creek catching plenty of mullet.

CORINELLA

Staff members Mark Keaveny and Brendon Cunningham fished the incoming tide on Friday night and were rewarded with a consistent bite from gummies and school sharks. The guys found mantis shrimp to be the most productive bait for gummies as well as freshly caught yakkas. The guys were using Shinto Pro octopus beak hooks in size 4/0 and it was important to have gummy burley pellets running to keep the bite going.

SAN REMO

Max Moulday with a 2.5kg squid caught at San Remo at first light on a black squid jig in 3.5 size.

Jayson Turner from Pro Red Fishing Charters reports in from a week of successful whiting and squid charters on Port Phillip Bay. It’s great to see there is plenty to be caught at the moment.
