The gun club is not that far upstream from the heritage golf course I've fished the golf course a fair bit with pretty good results and fished near the gun club once with no bites but it was pretty low.

I'd recomend going behind the golf course with some scrub worms, bread or corn. I haven't fished there in ages but most times it is pretty good. Caught some nice Red Fin, Maquarie Perch, Carp, Eels and hooked up to BIG fish and nearly lost my rod a few times because I was sitting further down the bank.
PB's (most are estimates no brag mat) Carp 40cm, Redfin 35cm, Silver Trevally 27cm, Eel 1m+, Mullet 25cm, Sand whiting 20cm.
Wish list: Rainbow and Brown Trout, Bigger Redfin, Gummy Shark, Estuary Perch and Snapper
