Well done, nice cod.
Good to someone is catching in the Yarra at present.

Just so Cornacarpio's thread does not suffer too much "thread drift" - I thought I would just start a generic Lilydale lake thread that we can add to with tips and tricks for fishing this lake. 4liters is right - the lake is mostly just a flat, featureless bottom, about 2m deep apart from the submer...

Well done mate :gj: - I have heard there are fish to be had in the creek,both up and down stream of the lake, but never tried myself. Lilydale lake is one of those places that has frustrated the best of us. It is a tough lake to get consistent results from. Fisheries is stocking it more and more, wo...

Correct still no carp.......might have to try further down river at some stage.

Better Yarra session this evening. Headed out to Yarra Glen, river still high and fast, but I managed to find some slower sections along the bank/snags.

River is wider here and the flow is not as bad as at Yering. I still can't get over the fact I can't even get a carp on corn....... Di...

Gotta wait for the water to clear up a bit I guess I think it is more to do with the flow at present - normally by this time of year the level has dropped and flow slowed - but with all the recent rain it just has not happened. If we get a few weeks of no rain it should start to pick up again. Alth...

Not a long session this evening but time to call it quits.
Not even a bite, can't even tempt the carp to bite.
Another guy fishing the same area, using worms and sausage, also zero bites.

Oh better luck next time hopefully
