where did you catch the gold fish? i might go get me a biggin.
It's not a spot I'm willing to give away on a forum. I'd say there's probably 1 or 2 lurking around the ponds and lakes of urban parks etc.

Kill them all imo, native fish pull just as hard and there's bound to be something native that tastes as good as trout or redfin.

Yeah for sure. But some suburban lakes there’s really no viable native angling target. Especially man made lakes.

Trout just sell lures, grow fast and taste alright.
That’s a hard battle to fight.

dam i never thought about that. if say a lake only has red fin and carp and every one who catches one kills it then eventualy there wont be any fish to catch. great point mate you really got me thinking for some reason :gj:
