Re: Local knowledge needed.
Back in 2013 (on this forum) reports of big redfin & that it has been stocked with yellowbelly.

Can't find anything on DEPI site,that the area has been stocked.

That's it Texas.I have just taken my grannies for walk and found it.It is fenced ,but I found a opening that others use.A father had is 2 young kids fishing he said he has caught a lot of small Reddies at times,but has been quiet recently.It is quite deep and a lot of weed on the bottom and the kids get snagged a lot.being a quarry it would also have rocks on the bottom.Taken some pics so will post them later.Texas wrote:Back in 2013 (on this forum) reports of big redfin & that it has been stocked with yellowbelly.

Gus, that looks like a legit entrance in the fence :lol: :thumbsup: cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them

Hey Gus..You must be the supreme optimus.
Anybody who takes a shopping trolley, to bring home a fish, must be one.
