Welcome :welcome:

Welcome to the site I usually fish saltwater from a boat but in the past have fished pykes creek, bostock , hepburn , newlyn, dean, cairn curran, lauriston, eppalock, talbot all pretty good spots within a nice drive from the western suburbs

Wendouree is a great spot for Reddies! Always hear good reports from there. I've never been there myself. But I will be there soon!

Welcome mate,

I'd recommend Auravale Lake with a pink tassie devil for starters lure fishing, doesn't really get any easier in my opinion.

Hi
I am from the Maldives and moved to Australia two months back.
I do a lot of Saltwater (trawling, popping, casting, jigging) in the Maldives.
I am totally new to fishing in Australia and would like some pointers from the pros here.
I live in Glen Waverley and am interested in freshwater fly fishing.
Any suggestions?

[DougieK]

I'm in Glen Waverley as well Shareef.

No idea at all about freshwater fly fishing, but there is a fly club up near warburton somewhere that is probably a good place to start.

As I already said Auravale lake, which is at the far end of Wellington road is FULL of redfin and a good place to flick some lures around.

I've also had recent success in Rowville on lures, and the Tim Neville Arboretum on bread.

Thank you
That was quick. I was looking at Yarra Valley Fly Fishers, Will update my experience soon.
Thanks again for the quick response!

Let us know how you go, I wouldn't mind trying it someday.
