try using a cast net. There mainly used up north but i dont see why that wouldnt work for the poddies down hear.

Cast nets are illegal in NSW if i recall correctly.

I assume you are using a poddy trap?

Shallow sandy areas work for me - not sure around wisemans though.

mate i have caught them in the macdonald river which is a tributary which comes off the hawkesbury river at wisemans ferry. Set your bait trap up in that area.
