On the other side of Kingsbury Drive is all good though. Let me know when you're planning on going, I live 5 min away from the uni and I know a lot of the guards through work.

At the lake across kingsbury drive (sports field lake), Google Map -37.726697, 145.040646
I've seen plenty of fishermen over the years as I go for bike ride down the walk/bike trail. Seen them catch Redfin & Carp, quite big ones too.
