Those willing to venture out have had some luck with big schools of morwong off Haycock.
For those on land, beach worms are working well off Merimbula for anyone chasing whiting, bream and flathead.
Candelo’s Lachlan Bassett landed a whopping 5.4kg Australian salmon off Tura Beach last week.
Estuaries have also been fishing well, as proven during the tri-estuary challenge last weekend.
Event organisers said a good number of flatheads ranging from 60-80 cm had been caught and released.
The club also urged all anglers to return dusky flathead.
Bream had been a bit of a harder target to find, with members suggesting it was due to the run out tides during fishing hours.
Schools of trevally are active in the Merimbula Lake and there is reports of luderick biting near the bridge.
With the festive season looming, the club was delighted to announce its upcoming Christmas party.
Members and friends are urged to head along on December 12.
The club said a salad or plate of sweets would help, with everything else provided.
Everyone is also encouraged to take along a $10 maximum gift for a fun round of secret Santa.
Parents are asked to supply a small labelled gift for Santa to give their child.
