I measured the carp against my net and took photo of that and measured it when I got home it might not be entirely accurate but the carp was def over 70

Good work champ! what did you get them on?

I live not far from those lakes and have fished them heaps years ago. Heaps of carp and small redfin in all the lakes. I've also caught some big eels!

Well done mate!

I've seen a few of your posts where you haven't had much success. You've persevered - the key to becoming a good angler - and it has brought you the rewards.

A 40 cm reddie is a good fish these days, particularly out of a suburban lake. When the weather warms up head down to the Yarra to target some other species.

Best Wishes

Very well done mate! That carp would have given you a good run for your money! Bet the redfin would taste better though ;)

thanks very much mate. I haven’t had much luck lately and hoping to get better with these local lakes which I have had a lot of trouble to catch in
