Honestly thats a great Bream , it be approx 25yrs old . My best in the Maribyrnong is 43cm & they are far & few between , i noticed that once they reach 39cm it takes them forever to grow even one more centimeter . I been fishing the Maribyrnong & Yarra rivers for 30+ yrs now , started in 1983 . ;)

With the amount of pollution that been dumped in that river over the last 100yrs , i wouldnt be eating the Bream out of the Maribyrnong river or Yarra unless your pantry is empty & your starving .

I have lived in Sunshine all my life and have just recently moved in to a new house down by the river near the chinese temple.

Has anyone fished the river north of Solomon's Ford towards Brimbank park? I'd expect there to be quite a few carp but unsure if anyother species would there.
