Western Port Bay Fishing Charters
About Us
I’m Hooked Fishing Charters is run by Mal, a qualified charter operator who began fishing at a very young age with his Grandpa. Mal would fish at Carrum while his Grandpa collected boat launching fees. His dad would also take him to local creeks to catch bream and mullet. Mal’s journeys have taken him up the coast where he lived in Merimbula where he started fishing from Eden to Tathra catching his first Marlin off the coast.
Mal is extreme and passionate about his fishing. At the age of 18 he caught his first Snapper which took his fishing to another level. Fishing Port Philip Bay, Western Port Bay’s, Port Albert, Warnambool and Portland and living locally, his passion is to target Snapper, Gummy Shark’s, Flathead, Sharks, Kingfish, Tuna Whiting and Squid.
