    you have some great water at your doorstep if your not after a feed try out the nepean river

    boat ramp at tench reserve

    targeted fish

    bass

    mullet

    carp

    and the good old eel

    all can be caught on a big variety of bait

    mullet and carp prob the best for the kids just a simple float rig with bread or corn baits berly lightly thats it

    bass can be caught on bait but i prefer a lure might be something to look into alot more patience needed

    cpl of nice spots up river to pull up let the kids run a muck swim what ever

    if your happy with catch and release fishing (not keeping for a feed)you have a great river only 10 minutes from home that being the nepean river bass,carp and mullet are the most targeted species there i gave caught all 3 on lure and bait great way to pass a cpl of hours if ya got nuthn better to do plenty of shore based spots from camden to windsor including penrith

    a cpl of spots you might want to try the rowing club at penrith and opposite side of the river emu plains below the weir at penrith richmond plenty of land based access there around the windsor bridge is another good spot

    google earth is a fishos best friend plenty of water to explore

    bass=lures im against bait fishing for bass but its up to you

    carp=bread or corn baits i find unweighted the best but a small sinker is fine to

    mullet=bread baits float fishing

    all great to target and go bloody hard an light gear

    but if you go lure bass fishing i can not be held responsible for and sort of addiction you and your partner may get :biggrin2:

    forgot to mention if fishing for any of these species morning or afternoon by far the best time to fish or in the middle of the night for bass is the best but tht one a secret ok :1prop:

    just have to give the river a week to settle as all this rain we've had has it about 1 meter higher than what it is normally

    Fireline or Fireline Crystal

    if your fishing light plastics you might want to look at a softer braid iv completly gone away from fireline and iv used it all including the new exceed which i used for 1 session and it came straight back off just to stiff for me nitlon is very good for its price as is sunline range and if you dont mind spending some $$$ grab a spool of td sensor cant beat it

    the main reason for the softer braid is distance in casting alot better i reccon you can feel a lot more of whats going on to

    just my opinion

    have a look at the quantum range as bassboy has suggested i picked one up a month ago feels good with a 2000 sol but even better with a 1000 twinpower nice and light but has the power down low to appart from that go the trion 1-3 great value for money

    go the lighter outfit mate bream are around all year round especially in winter when the big girls come out to play yes a bit harder to target but bigger fish in winter if your a bit concerned about it being only a bream out fit consider bumping the reel up to a 2000 and loading it with 6lb sunline perfect for bream but will also handle larger species to (within reason)

    happy birthday to
