About Port Kembla

Fishing Techniques
- For Japanese meagre
Target Japanese meagre during low light conditions or at night, and work lures slowly and methodically near structure.
- For Bluefish
Bluefish are aggressive; use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs and retrieve lures at a fast pace to trigger strikes.
- For Australian bonito
Australian bonito often feed aggressively on surface schools of baitfish; target areas with visible surface activity.
