Re: Mealworms

Yep - Good for trout etc, drift 2 on a hook, unweighted, into slack water or just into the current at the head of a pool. You can also toss a couple into the area you are going to fish before sticking a hook in a couple - downsize to a 10 / 12 / 14 size hook / 4Lb line.

Re: Ice problem

Used to fly fish Lake Eucumbene a lot on freezing mornings = Iced up runners - East fix - Dip runners into the water you are fishing, it will be warmer then the ice / frost.

Re: Metung area?

Land bases for kids - There are 4 fishing platforms on the Tambo as well as open areas that you can fish from - Go for a drive and have a look around. Used to be able to buy Sand Worms in Johnsonville.

Re: Where can I get lead for sinkers?

If you have a mate or a mate of a mate, ask if you can get some of his lead flashing off-cuts. OR Bunnings, they sell rolls of lead flashing.

Re: 5ft6 1-3/2-4kg spin rods

Check out Ebay - Seems to be quite a few that may suit your needs. Really? I did do a check there and majority were the 5'6 (or 1.65m) rods that were in the heavy weight ranges. Tried searching using fishing rod + 5ft 6, 5'6, 1.65m etc for not many showing up in the light end. What key words are you...
