I'm also seeing reports of barrels down there atm. Apparently 3 came in today with more spotted in close. Hooking one of them in shallow would get very interesting.wokka1 wrote:Reports on Fartbook today...Kings off the Lee breakwater.

That is very very tempting, I have a friends housewarming on Saturday though.FishnDive wrote:It depends sometimes its leave Melb at crazy o clock and fish first light, but driving down the night before is preferred. I'm driving down Fri night and staying in a motel to fish first thing Saturday. There is space if you were thinking of making the trip.4liters wrote:Jordo wrote: Do you guys just drive down for the day, or have you got a place to stay down there?

Re: Portland Offshore - First Timer Guide
Do you have any offshore experience? Where have you fished before? Maybe worth introducing yourself in the say g'day section
