Georges River - 28/2/14

This is my first fishing report on fishraider.

I decided to take my little brother fishing after he finished school at 4.30. We drove to Georges river during peak hour traffic, took a lot longer to get to our the spot. We took a piece of frozen chicken with us for bait. We got to the river by 5, and started fishing, off my second cast I got snagged and was forced to rig my line again. Then, my little brother also got snagged, and I had to do his line too. On top of all this it was raining. I was thinking of giving up early, however, we decided to move spots. At this new spot we were'nt getting snagged anymore. By sunset we had a few small bream. We kept fishing past the sunset, however, all bites stopped. My brother wanted to leave, however, I told him to be a little patient and wait for the bigger fish to come out. Then a while later, I decide to reel in my line, and I notice a heavy weight on it, it puts up a nice fight, I bring it in and its a 33cm Bream which has swallowed the chicken whole. We leave shortly after. Not bad for georges river, considering everyone tells me its pointless fishing there. This has got me thinking of fishing more often at the Georges.

sorry for the bad pic, ill try better next time :P

Hello , Yes the Georges river is a good fishing spot at times , I QUOTE I would never eat from there, It depends on what part of the river. Example MILPERRA bridge. Its good to hear reports like yourself, Is it possible to give a general idea/area on what location you were fishing.
