Fishing Victoria Forum

Gday all, I'm looking at heading off somewhere for the weekend trout fishing for the opening, and Just wondering if any has any ideas that are within 3 odd hours of Ballarat, so Far I'm thinking some of the creeks running of Eildon, or around the Otways. Also, I got stuck into getting Redfin off the...

Lunker City have some nice plastics for a trailer. Also Zman are great, just be careful when storing them.

Campaspe Near Rochester is had some great fishing. Usually get a few yellas around.

Heads up, Awesome sale going on at http://www.weflickfishing.com/ at the moment. Brands like Pontoon, Ecogear, Fish arrow and keitech all discounted.

Went out again last night to a local lake, no luck talked to some blokes with boats and sounders and they said they couldnt find any schools, guess ill go back soon and have another crack.

Might head out tomorrow arvo/Evening and give it a crack, I have got a pack of the White and pink Zman Grubs so will have a throw of them too.
Should I be varying retrieve speeds or will slower be better with the less activity?
Thanks for the advice, will post how I go.

Cheers

Will defiantly have a go in that deeper stuff then, got a few TN50s cheap off buy swap sell, might be a good option I guess. I have never fish deeper water with much success would trolling or flicking be more productive?
Thanks

Gday All, Went out for a flick tonight down to a few local spots where a month of 2 back I would be catching 10-15 Reddies a session all be it most small in less that a meter of water, went out today not a touch or follow. This made me wonder if they are schooling deeper now the frosts have hit. Alt...

Small Yabbies seem to be gun on reddies, also don't seem to get too many carp on them.

Hypothectically if Trout were not stocked and classed as noxious, populations declined, would larger natives take there place? Or more Blackfish and Galaxis? Ive always wondered what was in those smaller creeks pre introduced species.
Cheers
