Georges Bay
On the doorstep of St Helens, Georges Bay is a fishery that just continues to improve. On its day you can expect to catch a huge variety of estuarine species, the most reliable of these are probably Australian Salmon and Silver Trevally, both species attain good size and will happily snavel just about any lure you care to throw at them, a silver wobbler in the 20 to 30 gram range is a great place to start, birds are an excellent indicator of salmon while the trevally tend to hold in the deeper water around structure like channel markers.
