Great to hear of so many small Jewies and also the Flatties are going OK. Thanks for the report.

Ganguddy, I will drop you PM. Centrepin

Great post. So nice to hear of others chasing on the top. Much appreciated Geoff

Yes. You walk in from Narrow neck or Carlons farm, end of Megalong Valley to the lower Kowmung. A long way. ( you have to cross through Warragamba prohibited area to access this way) You can also walk in from Uni Rover trail on Yeranderrie road. A long way. You can walk in from Kanangarra walls and down First Top. A long way. You can walk in from Yeranderrie along Scotts main range and drop down. A long way Not sure why you would want to go in there, especially this time of the year. Last spawn run was poor even though Dam was high and river levels high. They did run but not for long and not big fish. I might have a look further up where access is better. Resident browns if season is reasonable. Very hit and miss though. PM me if you want more info Geoff

Fantastic Dave. Very jealous, Geoff

Chris, Trout in Summer? Yes they vacate. I have only found them in Winter during the spawn run. They run up from Warragamba and the water flow is fairly consistent as there is outflow from Wingencarribee dam. I have not fished it in winter for some years and then it was patchy. Very dependant on amount of flow in Winter and the height of the dam. The higher the dam the better chance the fish had to migrate. Designated trout water starts from the Tarlo junction upstream a few k's upstream from Goodmans ford. Regards, Geoff

Chris, Great to see you had a good time and the carp were taking lures. I really appreciate your post as they can be difficult on lures. They are a much underrated sport fish and great fun,especially when they can be spotted. Many thanks, Geoff

Jdanger, Wow 43 Bream on Fly is unreal. We have a lot in common. I will PB you with my Trout plans this year as NZ is off the agenda. If Australia trout cracks off I will keep you posted. I have some spies out on the job. Geoff

Dieter, Great to see you get amongst them. Longer traces are a big key to Blackfishing off the rocks. I have had the same experience as you with a guy suggesting a longer trace and that turned the day around, like it did with you. I start with at 1M trace and will shorten if I am losing baits and not getting downs. Sometimes you have to vary the trace length depending on the tide throughout the session, Well done, Geoff

Dave, Great you had a fun family time. Well done. Look forward to hearing about more advenrures Geoff

Great report and well done. So great to see you doing well.

Great to hear you are getting among them. Estuary is patchy at the moment. Perhaps I should look at the stones. Thanks for the report.

some very good fish, well done

Dave, Great to hear you are back at them and getting some fish. Congrats on the satan and so good to hear the bream are in presence. Thanks for posting, Geoff

Dave, Great stuff. The difficulties make the trip even more memorable. Good to hear they are starting up your way. Thanks so much for posting, Geoff

Good to see you getting into them. I drop you a PM on Flatties on Lures and Blackfish.

I did a trip into the Blue Mountains. I was looking for spawn run fish but none present (Too long after the big rains) Normally outside of the spawn run there are only small rainbows as resident fish. Fished further upstream than I had before into the next gorge. Fished some deep water with mayfly nymph and glowbug rig. Caught some good rainbows ( about 2lbs), all on the mayfly nymphs. Very pleased to see some better fish. Only fished 2 runs in this area as I had to get back out as it is an epic to get in and out in the day. Returned to top of mountain and took 3 days for my legs to stop feeling the pain. Right now not sure if the effort is worth it but after the memory of the leg pain resides I will probably reason there may be even better fishing further upstream and it is worth returning. There is always a another river to explore. Geoff

This is bizarre I am going in tomorrow. 4.30 am start . I haven't been in for many years and you bring this up at this moment. Un real. Stay tuned

Dave, Great to see you are getting among those fish again. Interesting the small blade did the trick at the start. You will be pleased when the bream and jacks re-appear. Thanks for sharing, Geoff

Lovely pictures. Thanks for sharing

Thanks for the report and well done on warning of the dangers. My greatest fear is encouraging people to fish the rocks and then hearing of incidents.

Great to see you guys are keen despite the weather. Well done

Dave and Amy, Goodness this is good fishing, and in winter. The sky was clear before the weather came in. How good are clear, still days in Winter? I can see a north coast trip coming. Perhaps the blackfish will be present. Only one way to find out. Thanks for the post. Geoff and Evi

Dave, It is great to still be getting regular bream this time of the year and then a jack as well. It looks a good fish The bream are shutting down around our way, you are getting me inspired. Thanks for the post, Geoff

Dave, I just love your posts. Your fishing with grubz is just what I love. Thanks so much for sharing all you contribute. Appreciated, Geoff
