Has anyone ever hired a boat to target squid in the bay? im real keen to do this, as my only current option is landbased.
Ive read alot of reports from another site online, of ppl hiring boats from 2 well known businesses in Mordialloc and catching pinkies, some big snapper, salmon, gars and occasionally squid.
so i started wondering whether there were any hire boat services located between mornington and portsea, so i could gain access to some better squidding areas than mordialloc.
i havnt found any boat hire below m'nington so far, so if i end up taking a boat out from Mordi instead, id love to hear any advice from ppl on any good spots which are in that stretch of water.
i dont know how much fuel the hire boats use, but im guessing that they cant travel all that far. so itd be pretty insane to try and motor out too far, whizz past frankston and rye and then drift out to bass strait with an empty tank, never to be seen again;-)
cheers!
