Thanks for the feedback Domenic. Unfortunately, I'm not in a postion to offer guided fishing tours at this stage.

Mozzy - No, not me or Brad in the Skeeter, although we have fished / still fish the system reasonably often from 5m aluminium bream/bass boats.

Have you been doing any good?

havent bothered the last few weeks due to the rain water in the system but prior to that been getting some really nice pinkies, have boated a few near the 2kg mark. plenty in the 1 - 1.2kg area. few salmon also down the bottom end of the yarra. once it cleans up a bit i'll be on the hunt again.

its funny because i drive down to lake tyers, bemm river and mallacoota for quality fishing but its been just as good 10 minutes from home this year. its a hooter....

c ya on the water some time! does your boat have decals? if so what are they so i can throw you a wave next time im there! i just got a little white quintrex. keep an eye out.

Latest report filed - admin should have it up shortly.

Mozzy - my boat is a black Polar Kraft with Honda Marine and Berkley decals. Sections of the river were just starting to clear but it will take a few more weeks after all the rain over the past two days.
