Looking for some tips - Box Hill Area

[bclayton16]

Hi everyone, I recently moved to the Box Hill area and I’m struggling to pinpoint good spots within a reasonable driving distance (ie. 1 hour or so). I’ve been to Rye Pier and Devilbend Reservior this year but not had a whole lot of luck. Just got a new lighter rod and reel, starting to look for good Trout, Bream or Whiting spots anyone can suggest? Not looking to steal anyone’s secret spots but just a general indication in the right direction would be awesome. Thank you!

The Yarra river is a good option your only 15 minutes away and as the weather starts to warm up anywhere between Templestowe and Warrandyte will be good fishing especially in the evenings.

Some good carp in Gardener’s creek

Docklands for bream snapper and salmon or yarra/plenty river for freshwater

Where did you move from?

I used to live in Balwyn so know your struggle

What fish are you targeting first of all?

I live in the area. If i am desperate for a fish, there are nice ones along Carrington Road. There are more in the nearby area.
