Cox River after rain?

[Nuttynatty]

Gday fellow fishing friends

A quick question if I can.

I was going for my first Trout fishing session on Wednesday driving from the Sutherland Shire to the Cox River, I've got most things sorted in the way of gear and location but am completely clueless as to whether this rain will adversely effect the fish.

So just wondering if anyone has any info in regards to this.

Thanks.

Ill let you all know how I go.

The rain hasn't been too bad up in the mountains, the rain shouldn't have really affected it at all. You should have a great trip. I will probably be hitting it over the weekend too so if you see some guy casting lures into puddles it is probably me. Don't forget to say hi... I promise I wont use you as bait.

Cox is fine, they didnt really get all a that much late last week. Saw a few nice river fish, and caught a PB going 2.405 kgs. WOrth a trip

thanks guys

was gunna fish off the side of Jenolan caves rd and coxes river rd as its the 1st time ive fished here. have you any other suggestions or places to try?

cheers

thanks

i think anywhere on the cox is worth it. My only suggestion is to walk a long way before wetting a line. Try to get past the fish that have been spooked regularly

Hi Guys

Well I went the distance and it was awesome.

Fished Cox in a few places and pulled 4 Rainbows.

Largest went 40cm

Thanks for the help

Well done the cox's is an amazing river not as marginal trout habitat as the fish or turon as the fish have SAMs to drop in too if the water gets too warm and tou can hit a spawn run if timed right at close or open of the season! Or if your prepared to make the walk and camp in sub zero fish the big runs in the winter below the jenolan it was once said the runs rivalled those of the famous tongariro in the 80's. Well done again and congrats.

Congrats Natty, that is a nice bow you have there. Well done on getting into a few. What did you catch them with?

Howdy Jew Stalker

Got them on some plastics, small 2 inch prawn imitations that I cut the tail off trying to make it loo like a nymph on a resin head jig.

Its a pretty beautiful river, amazing to think you can catch such awesome fish in such a river system.

You ever fished the Wollondilly Jew Stalker?

[Jew Stalker]

No, I have never been out there, wouldn't mind giving it a go sometime though. Have you had much luck out that way?

Good work on the S/P's also, I wouldn't have thought to do that. It is good to get creative
