Re: Carp Diem
Head north about 800m and fish Kororoit Ck near where the train crosses over. I used to fish it religously and pulled many stonkers out of there. Traditional waggler float with maggots for bait was my way but my mates got em on running sinker and corn or worms

Re: Fishing Maribyrnong river at Brinkbank Park.
Ben, I grew up fishing the Nong and Brimbank Park many moons ago and used to fish it coarse style. I fished it all year round and found that the carp wouldnt start biting until mid Oct. Plenty of eels in September but if I did get carp at this time they would be a good size. As Sebb said burleying i...
