After giving the SPs another crack yesterday afternoon on the Yarra....and having many follows from Redfin, just couldn't hook on up, I thought I should keep trying.
Figure Redfin weren't a bad target species, however short of a few spots along the Yarra I don't really have any solid leads on metro Redfin.
So figured it might be worth asking for the wisdom of the crowd to come up with a Top 10 locations.
As always, not looking for spot on locations but rather general ideas to go towards a Top 10 list.
Top 10 metro redfin hotspots ?

Karkarook lake used to be swarmed with them, but I haven't caught any for a while. Unsure where else in Melbourne that holds redfin. Carps everywhere.

Best spots along the Yarra that I have found are - Yarra Glen, Worri Yallock and Millgrove.
I'm sure they are throughout the Yarra but I have been unsuccessful tracking them down anywhere else so far.

Re: Top 10 metro redfin hotspots ?
Caught my PB reddie at Karkarook and used to see people pull them out one after the other down there, although that's going back a few years now. Can't say I've caught very many within the boundaries of metropolitan Melbourne, but I have been catching a few at the Upper Coliban Reservoir and the Coliban River, both of which aren't too far beyond city limits.
