Hey new here, I live around the Fairfield area and was wondering if anyone has fished any of the creeks around the area like “Clear Paddock Creek” or “Orphan School Creek” that run in and around Cabramatta, Canley Vale, Fairfield.etc And if so, what species have you caught?
If no one has fished there, what are some good spots around these areas to get into freshwater fishing? I want to target Aussie bass mainly.
Thanks!
I was born and bred in Cabramatta and have caught many good bass in cabra creek over the years up as far as the Cumberland hwy also in prospect ck up as far as Carramar rail bridge also caught ep,s at lennox bridge on rare occasion,s

Im usually landbased...i duno if it makes a difference, but casting it, it usually just flies of the hook anyways.
I duno...prawns and SPs do well for me
I have found if you buy lady,s hair net and cut them into small squares wrap around oyster and half hitch to hook they hold up well to casting

according to some researchers big female bull sharks give birth in the upper reach,s of rivers as the pups have no tolerance for salt water the pups slowly make their way down stream whilst building up tolerance to salt we have seen big bulls up in chipping Norton lake acting strange and have a feeling these are females having or just had pups

many years ago was only 17 at the time while deep sea fishing out Newport the guy fishing next to me became horribly sea sick whilst he was having a look at the ocean his false teeth went for a swim only to be retrieved by the guy on the other side of him his hook stuck between two teeth this is a true story I would never believe it if I had not been there

I cant believe how dumb some people can be after fishing the moons for a few hours on Monday night I was heading back up river and was very lucky when two fishos on the bank directed their torchs towards a three seater lounge floating in the main channel. further up stream between east hills wharf and kelso beach I counted no less than nine boat anchored all over the channel with only one displaying an anchor light luckily travelling at six knots I avoided colliding with any body but it makes me wonder our these guys ever get a licence
