Local knowledge & spot details
The French Island Barge Landing, situated on the serene shores of French Island, VIC, offers a unique fishing experience from its jetty and the nearby bank. This estuarine location is particularly fruitful for anglers targeting a variety of species, including Snapper, King George Whiting, and the elusive Gummy Shark. Early morning and late evening, especially during tide changes, are prime times for casting a line here. The gently rolling waters can yield Australian Salmon and Flathead, making it a versatile spot for different fishing styles, whether you prefer bait fishing or lure techniques.
