👤 Davecloudy day at gippsland today, didn't catch as much as I hoped. just a couple of undersized bream. tried a few spots but they were not biting well at all. maybe I need to switch up the bait or something. will try again next week!

👤 Nikkiwhat a wet day! went to the lakes and had some heavy rain showers, but the fish didn’t mind! caught 6 bream, they love the rain! was using small soft plastic lures and they were smashing them. got soaked but totally worth it.
Report #3
👤 Tomtoday was rough! patches of rain rolled in but we kept fishing, ended up catching 2 solid cod. using live bait really helped, but the wind was a pain. still, these cod were hefty and made the struggle worth it! love that feeling when they bite.

👤 Mickgot out to the lakes again, gloomy day with the patchy rain, felt like the fish were hiding. finally caught a solid 40cm estuary perch after trying all morning. using a spinnerbait, it was like a miracle! just need those fish to get hungry more often.
