Victoria not only has beautiful beaches, but also is rich in fish resources. As a sport and leisure activity, fishing seems to be a must-miss event during a leisurely holiday.
Because the sea water here is very clean, so fishing fish can also be eaten on the spot. Many tourist hotspots have professionals to take to the sea, sometimes can catch more than a meter of large fish.
Even if you don't go out to sea, hire a car and run along the coastline, stop casually and pick up a broken fishing rod.
If you want to fish, you can usually look for seaside breakwater or wharf, which is the kind of long trestle (Pier), extending all the way to the sea. Fishing in this place, there are often surprises! There will be many kinds of fish in the ideal place! Of course, no, the sun for a day to see the scenery, drink beer is also good.
Where to fish close and satisfied?

Fishing is very fun, and preparation can not be less oh.
First of all, we need to buy a fishing card.
Fishing certificate (Victorian Recreational Fishing Licence), Australia is a paradise for fishermen, however, goverment also has a detailed set of conservation measures for fish stocks. Australia's goverment first manages fishermen to protect fish stocks.
With the exception of minors under 18 years of age and over 70 years of age, fishermen generally need to buy a fishing card.
This is the chief fishing certificate:
The costs are as follows:
-valid for 3 days: $10;
-28 days: $20.6;
-valid for one year: $36.2 ($34.1 online purchase discount);

Purchase by:
Www.depi.vic.gov.au/fishing-and-hunting/recreational-fishing/fishing-licence purchase address: https://checkout.payments.com.au/rec_fishing
Relevant Authorization Authority-all Kmart
After the purchase, you will first get an electronic fishing card, the official card will then be sent home. No matter where you go fishing, take it with you.
Another caveat: if you go to sea with the fisherman's Charter, you don't usually need to buy a fishing card. Because Charter usually buys an annual fee, the guest can waive the Fishery fee, but remember to confirm with the captain. After all, no one wants to see the tragic scene of being fined.
Hello, may I have your fish card?
What are the fishing tools to prepare?
Australian sea fishing has sunken bottom and sandfish as well as boat fishing three mainstream fishing methods.
Simple to play and want to catch big fish suggest that we boat fishing, to rent a boat pole, basic people will teach you how to fish on the spot. As follows, the boat rose with a fishing rod in it, and was guided by a fisherman, and rarely failed:
Fishing follows the radar, what you want to fish.
Children can also catch big fish.
Rock Fishing is more complex, dangerous, people must face the sea and waves, require more equipment, lifejackets and nail shoes are necessary.
Correct way of fishing: wear a lifejacket.
From 2002 to 2012, 12 people in Victoria drowned while fishing. These drown people are usually 35-59-year-old men from non-English backgrounds, especially Chinese or Vietnamese.
You can't go fishing with your naked ass like this, sir.
No matter how stable the horse's step is, there is no use in it.
If one does not pay attention, he will be swept away by the waves.
In all cases, the deceased was not wearing a lifejacket. So, be careful. Be careful.
Bottom fishing can go to the BigW supermarket to buy condoms on the 29.9 will be fine. K-Mart also has a special area is selling fishing gear, you can go to see. Bottom fishing for different target fish, beaches, docks, reefs can be. Just a little play if you'd better go to the dock fishing bottom, safe. Bait can be used to fish all-powerful bait, shrimp, supermarket to buy raw cooked.
If you want to buy some professional fishing rod, you can go online to find new or second-hand. In addition, do not miss the beach fishing gear store, you can see, by the way, you can ask the professionals inside, where can catch what species of fish, which kind of bait, when is the best fishing time.
This is a piece of Trout, steamed. It's very delicious.
The choice of bait depends on the fish and tide. If you find it too difficult to grasp, here are a few chestnuts:
Port Melbourne port is suitable for Blue Bait as bait, the best fishing time is from 5:30 to 7:30 and 6: 30 to 8: 30 in the evening (mainly Snapper).
Melbourne Island needs Cape Woolami as bait for Squid, and Blue Bait for Wasser,Silver Trevally and Whiting.
Not only can sea fishing, Victoria can also have lakes to catch large carp, wish you to achieve their own small goals ~
Fish caught, there are limits.
The state's fishing manual, called Victorian Recreational Fishing Guide, is available for free in print by phone booking or at a fishing license authority, and can be received in about 14 days. Or download its app on your phone-Vic Fishing.. It lists in detail the species, names, shapes and living areas of all fish in Australia. Finally, the size of the fish or how many fish can be caught, these are strictly observed.
If you catch fish, but the size does not conform to the rules in the book, such as too small, or a species of fish caught at a time beyond the prescribed number, you must be released back to the sea.
Otherwise. If someone at the Fishery Administration finds out, or someone reports you, then. Another wave of fines was mentioned.
Hello, fish card, please show me.
Hello, your fish is too small to take away.
Hello, you are overfishing.
Hello, here is your ticket:)
So in the fishing kit, the must-have items include the fisherman's registration (easy to see the variety and size in time) and a ruler.
Now, the phone also has a variety of fishing manual applications. At this time, I can not help but admire the Australian goverment to make the management of the country so meticulous. Of course, this also depends on Australian citizens law-abiding consciousness. At the same time, the education of citizen's law-abiding consciousness is indispensable, both of them are indispensable. The contents of the manual are also available on the official website: https://vfa.vic.gov.au/recreational-fishing/recreational-fishing-guide/catch-limits-and-closed-seasons
