  1. Hello All,

    Starting a new thread as the previous one was specific to Molonglo River in Canberra. I have been fishing on several spots in Canberra and wanted to gather all my fishing reports in one thread. For those of you who have not seen my fishing reports from Molonglo River, please view this thread first:

     

     

    More reports to come below. Stay tuned!

    Hi Khalid. Another quality video from Molonglo with a good, healthy Murray Cod caught. I see what you mean about the steep bank... I fish a couple of steep banks when the water is low enough. I am a lot less steady on my feet than you are, so I compensate by tying a long rope at the top of the bank and use it to move up and down the bank. I put knots in it (every metre} and that allows me the ability to move up and down without falling. I wouldn't be able to go there otherwise.

    Is the Molonglo still at that height? The Murrumbidgee is right up on the bank, and has been for months.

    Cheers, bn

    Thanks mate.
    Amazing that you use a knotted rope to access steep banks, shows the level of dedication.
    Yes, Molonglo is still at that height and has been like that for a while now.

  3. This happened to me recently on Wallaga Beach near Little Tilba Lake. 

    After a fruitful fishing session where I caught 3x Salmons and 1x Flathead, I was just finishing off by making some scenic drone footage of the area when a wedge-tailed Eagle struck my drone. I actually did not see the attack when it happened because the drone was flying around 100m high and sunlight was very bright making it difficult to see the phone screen properly. But what I did notice was that the screen went black for a few seconds which I thought was a normal glitch. When I landed the drone I was surprised to see that the recording had already stopped which I also thought was a glitch. I did see the Eagle fly away in the distance but did not make the connection at that point.

    It was after I came home and watched the footage that I understood what had happened. The impact from the Eagle was so great that the last 1 second or so of the video that was not saved to the memory card yet was lost and recording stopped.

    Anyway, I am happy that my drone survived the encounter and the Eagle seemed unharmed. Video report of the fishing trip coming soon.

    Here is some info about a fishing spot I tried in Tathra. Convenient parking at #1 with easy short walk to the fishing spot at #2. Take heavy sinkers with you as the current is super strong here, anything less than size 5 star sinker will cause too much drift and your line will tangle. Video report coming below soon.
