I heard there is going to be another weir built to help the migration of bass upstream and some re-stocking of bass in that area anyone heard of this
tony
thanks rod , we are staying at a b&b just down from the boat ramp and after talking to the owner she said a lot of people fish the around the bridges and there maybe a chance of a jewie but bream seem to be the main target but if thats no good pullbah island looks pretty good for a drift , just hope the wind stays away or we stay in the creek
cheers
tony
great pics , hope in a couple of weeks we can do the same , have you ever fished dora creek cause thats where we will be staying is it worth going up the creek for a fish or head out into the lake , and your right we went for a drive up there to look at some accommodation today and the weather was awful , fingers crossed for better conditions on the 22nd
cheers
tony
thanks guys , boats to small to go to moon island will try swansea and belmont , as for what i am targeting bream. flathead , maybe a bit of trolling , but anything will do
cheers
tony

g'day fishraiders,
looking to go up to lake maquarie around the 22/8 with the boat , anyone heard how its fishing and any tips where to go as i haven't fished the lake , only outside , we are possibly staying at belmont , but if anyone can recommend any good cabins on lakeside please give me an idea
cheers
tony
hey aaron,
mix ratio should be 50:1 ( say 20ltr tank would be 400ml of oil ) any standard unleaded fuel , and I usually flush my motor with fresh water and spray motor with WD40 ( around linkages or moving parts )
I would suggest a mechanic or someone who has the equiptment to do a compression test and at least a service .
metal tank should be fine as long as there is no rust or crap in the tank
tony
thanks phil,java script:emoticon('', 'smid_18')
I had to ask the question because I told some people to go there and a local told them there hasn't been fishing there for ages
could anyone out there clear up a rumour i heard at the local club that fishing is no longer allowed at wentworth falls lake , and if so for what reason if anyone knows
cheers
tony
looks like its going to be a hot one so surface lures should work go past the narrows and look for some rock walls on the right side near the 8 knot signs , worked for me about a week ago , just watch out for the dipshits in wakeboats , hope you get some
tony
haven't fished much with lures but my stump jumper has bagged 60cm + tailer , and a 60cm brown at lake lyell trolling mainly but retrieving has worked too , deep dive bib seemed to work better on retrieve
hey guys,
If you don't already know appletree bay boat ramp will be closed to public from mon 26/06/06 to fri 30/06/06 .
looks like they are going to replace the old pontoon going by the sign at the ranger station
cheers

my missus ties her own lines baits her own hooks and takes her own fish off and that goes for my kids too they know the rules if they want to fishin with me but there is help at hand if they really need it
fished a family day there about a year ago we got nothing but saw carp , catfish and yellowbelly being caught , last i heard only allowed to fish tuesdays but nepean community college has a fly fishing course
Heading to port stephens next weekend with me new boat and just wondering if any of u guys have fished inside and could give up any secret spots and whats u would consider the best baits to use , will be launching at soldiers point (probably) as we're staying at anna bay
glad i'm not the only one put in at Brooklyn tried various spots between milson island and berowra and couldn't even lose my bait , still beats goin to work go the swans and tigers
I got my boat 4.5mtr quinnie estury angler 40 hp merc from TR marine and they recommended club marine for $18,000 cover for boat , motor and trailer with $10,000,000 liability , $20,000 injury is $380 per yr and only $100 excess for claims
g'day guys,
I was talking to a auto elect down in batt st penrith and he has rigged his trailer and boat with LED lights he reckons he'll have no problem with lights any more as he said no bulbs to blow and completely water proof , one drawback there not cheap
