Re: Albert park lake
The lake has been cleaned over the past decade. If not, it wouldn't be able to support populations of rainbow trout and silver perch. Surely, the gov't wouldn't stock the lake with ready to eat fish if it were polluted...we hope...... :fish22: :water:

Re: Lake Eildon carp fishing.
if I'm going to drive 2.5 hours, I probably want to target something tastier. However, hats off to those who take up arms in the war against carp.

Re: A day fishing--albert park lake , docklands and yarra river
that's a great read. You should go back to Albert Park. They've released thousands of perch and cod fingerlings. They will be a decent catch one day... but not today...

extra small hooks on the high tide at the Patterson river. You get whole schools coming in, plus beam and eel.
