neilm Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 The lake is still closed at the moment and really needs a refresh from the ocean, so I haven't fished it in months. Talk is that the council may be opening it in the next coupla weeks. I haven't seen many people fishing down at the caravan park (I drive past at least twice a day), so that could be a good thing for you...! I scored a whiting off Warriewood beach last weekend, so they're about. Good Luck, Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of sand to move, so it'll be the council that'll have to do this with 'dozers - I saw a buncha kids up there digging when the lake was quite high due to the rain last week, but they were going nowhere fast. I wouldn't say the lake is green, but it's not the freshest smelling waterway at the moment. I've never night fished the caravan park, but I've had some good day sessions in the past with flatties, bream, the odd small whiting and a few blackfish and 'jackets. I hope it gets opened soon, I'm itching for a fly fishing sesh... Cheers, Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
