I went there just once and never again...

Plenty of carp there, seen people fly fish for them.. Must put up a good fight

Other then that, i managed to score a couple of EPs or BASS, cant remember as they all look alike

Land based its ok, but if you have a boat that would be better..

Monster carp in there mate!! Burley up with corn kernels and just wait for it! I've pulled 3 monsters out of there recently biggest went 18 pounds and watched some bloke in a yak getting towed by something much bigger

Where you find people feeding ducks are always the best spots to fish for carp. Fish light (no more than 6lb) and fish unweighed with bread or corn in a berley trail and you'll do well if you are fishing for them on bait. Carp are great fun on fly and pull very hard you can fish the same spots with bread flies if you want a challenge.

Carp are a pest an make sure you bring some thing solid to dong em on the head with. They make great fertilizer, so take em home and bury them.
