Mornington Peninsula, VIC

[Reef Raider]

I noticed quite a few people asking were some good spear fishing spots are with lots of reef and fish on the Peninsula, but no one really answering there questions.

So I put down some of the spots that I go to, and the regular types of fish you’ll see there.

And if you read this and know of any other reef spear fishing places that I don’t have, that you know of that are good, then add a reply to this topic and let me and other people know, because I’m always looking for new places to go for a dive and hunt fish



A few good spots are:

OLIVER’S HILL = Goat Fish, Butterfish, Flatheads, “LOTS” of Leatherjackets

Mt MARTHA PILLARS = Flathead, Parrot Fish, Leatherjackets, Rock Cods, Abalone

ALL ALONG ESPLANADE = Due Fish, Mullet, Salmon, Abalone, Leatherjackets

FISHERMAN’S BEACH = Boarfish, Leatherjackets, Sweep, Flatheads, Goatfish, and the odd Due fish, and Luderick (hard to get tho)

ROYAL BEACH + SNAPPER POINT = Leatherjackets, Goat fish, Butter Fish, Cuttlefish

BIRD ROCK = Leatherjackets, Flatheads, Rock Cods, and Red Rock Cod (watch out for Red Rock Cods tho, its spin pricked me in the finger when putting in my catch bag and my whole hand swelled up and it really really hurt for ages)
