Mornington??

#1 Post by geezer1000 »

Hi folks, 1st post so be gentle.

I was thinking of going out to the rocks at mornington at the weekend for a few hours. Now im a complete novice to sea fishing so bear with me.

13ft carp rod & a selection of lures & spinners: yay or nay?

Whats the chances of snagging a bass or 2?

Thanks
