Is the water pretty clean?

Caught a carp late yesterday but I had three break my 12 lb leader. There were some monster carp busting the surface all day yesterday. Only thing they were interested in were scrubbies

Yeah the carp in the Murray where I fish love the worms. Hard to avoid them and find other fish as they’ll eat virtually anything.

Usually won’t touch yabby tails (Cod love them) but anything golden perch will eat carp will eat.

I’m guessing they’ll have muddied the water up a bit too.

Good to catch something regardless I reckon.

Yeah my first fish there in 4 years and my sons first fish. It was still a good day my old man came down and stayed the night as well

Well that makes it bloody good regardless of the fish. Good memories to make.

Kicking any carp to the kerb is worthwhile. Each one out helps our waters.

Yuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm

Finally ate the big trout I snagged on the charter

 

[Yakker]

Slipped out on the kayak this morning. Fished the bottom of the tide. Can’t complain

 

[Elton Johns Wig]

Pretty close to the goulburn so i’ll definitely be getting some fishing in

Where abouts are you mate, I'm very close to the Goulburn as well.

Nice place to throw a line in. Caught a big carp 2 nights ago before the rain came. Now that it's cleared I'm expecting big things over the next few days.

My grandpa always used to say ‘the fish bite least when the wind’s in the East’, and we’ve had lots of easterly recently.

Going off in a couple of days to Sandy Point. Will have a fish in Shallow Inlet (near the Prom) to chase a feed. Cannot wait.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Noice!!

What set up and tackle did you use mate?

Noice!!

What set up and tackle did you use mate?

I use a running sinker , number 1 and a number 2 hook. 8lb line with a 12lb leader. About 40 cm. I've got several cheap rods from BCF and one from Kmart but they go alright. I use corn for bait the carp can't resist it

Unhappily as well as for people, property, wildlife and stock the current fires will not be much chop for aquatic life along the food chain. Heat, ash and eventual run off from the E Gippy fires into streams and creeks may affect the health of that region's terrific river system.

These are very ordinary times.

Four nice bream caught on peeled prawn with a very light running sinker all within 5 to 10 minutes of each other. Caught them this time last year at Apollo Bay in the river. Heading out for another crack in a week or so. Bream are great fun and good eating.

Nice haul. Bait? Lures? Plastics?
