Ep 13: Victoria's Bluefin Boom & The Shark Subject

The Fishing Podcast

Show Notes

Joel and Lee kick things off with a reel idea, a snapped rod, and the stunning shift in bluefin activity along the Victorian coast — top-water tuna, smarter fish, and why more anglers are ditching the troll for something more dynamic. From there it's straight into Blue Marlin World Cup talk, before Lee's own story drags the conversation into the shark subject that's been blowing up on socials this week — sharks following boats, and Australia's ongoing love-hate relationship with them. No guest needed. Just two blokes, a broken rod, and a lot to talk about.
