Morning All, Wondering if someone could dumb it down for me(lol) and explain where abts u guys were actually fishing as I was looking at google maps and I thought maybe it was around the observation wheel/ docklands area or I see where it says waterfront city?? only reason is im driving there on sat and I know its going to be hard to park the car that way I can use the navman to lead me there.
Thanks Jason

All between Central pier opposite Etihad stadium, around to the NAB building, to the Docklands library, even down to the end of north wharf down Collins st. Don't know about harbour town but don't see why they wouldn't be there too

Great to hear that fish are still there!!!! Exciting! Will give it a go this Saturday. :victory:

What rod is that your using ?...
Yeah awesome having it basically in the heart of the City, the rod is a Shimano Catana 1-3kg (702xl), great rod, one of my favourites, I am actually trying to find more of them but they appear to be out of stock in australia.
Try Anaconda. I got one there a couple of weeks ago. Was pretty cheap too, like 70 bucks from memory
