Make the first trip simpler.
Got a few hours to take someone fishing? Choose a rough area, a time and a target. Nibble will carry those choices into a current Plan. No account is needed first.
An adult must supervise children around water, hooks and sinkers. Check the place, weather, warnings and your own ability before you go.
One simple rig. Current rules. Nothing left behind.
The running sinker rig
The Victorian Little Anglers' Guide describes a running sinker rig for flathead and bream. Thread the sinker onto the main line, tie on a swivel, then add the leader and hook as shown in the official guide.
Flathead bait
The official guide names pilchards, whitebait and squid, fished over sandy bottom with a running sinker rig.
Bream bait
The official guide names sandworms, bass yabbies, crabs, prawns and shrimps with a running sinker rig.
Nibble is a fishing forecast, not a safety assessment or a catch guarantee. Conditions change.
