New fishing custom plates a reel catch

10 March 2019

The State Government is encouraging anglers to go hook, line and sinker and proudly show everyone on the road how much they love fishing.

Minister for Roads and Minister for Fishing and Boating Jaala Pulford today encouraged anglers to get creative and develop a slogan for a new custom number plate for recreational fishers.

Until April 29, Victorians can visit the VicRoads Custom Plates website and vote for their favourite number plate design and slogan. Voters will also have the chance to win a $495 Custom Plates voucher.

The design and slogan options have been developed by VicRoads and the Victorian Fisheries Authority and reflect Victoria’s passion for getting out on the water and dropping a line.

The State Government’s Target One Million plan is investing a record $46 million to get more people fishing, more often.
