Local knowledge & spot details

Williamstown Gem Pier in Victoria is a popular jetty fishing location that offers a diverse range of species for anglers. Situated amidst the picturesque waters of Port Phillip Bay, this spot is especially fruitful at dawn, dusk, and during the night, with high tide often yielding the best results.
