No. Water is cleaning up now the rain has stopped.

Not even around Paynesville and water is clearing up throughout the hole system

Thx for the reply guys,sounds good

Just to get back.on topic. If you want to catch kgw at the moment my advice would be to fish the shallow flats within 100 m of the red markers east of Raymond Island. Hard work and a few moves but hooked 16 today landed 13 on light gear including the 4 m trusty UK carp waggler rod n prawn.
Fish for T as I write.
Tight Lines
Pirkz

I fished around the Barrier Landing and Fraser Is today and managed 2 KGW at 35 cm and lost a much larger one next to the boat. All caught on prawn. At last, finally, a couple of KGW! A few small salmon gave me false hopes but good gummy bait.

really appreciate the effort some people are going to find the KGW this year as it's been a bit of a mystery as to their whereabouts. these last posts give me hope to return for another day. Thanks

This may be a silly question but do Whiting eat shrimp

Short answer yes if it's local shrimp.
Please don't use anything from other areas that will introduce disease to our system.
Eg: supermarket prawns.
