Went camping at Rocklands Reservoir last holidays, excellent fishing. The weather was good, only a few light showers for the time we were there. Got about 200 small reddies, about 5 keepers. Also culled 50 or so carp and got 4 pan sized trout. A few pics:
Note: Rocklands Reservoir has recently been stocked with brown and rainbow trout.

Re: Rocklands Reservoir
My first post
Went up there this weekend and did some fishing.
Fished the shore of Rocklands near the dam wall with no luck. Tried a bit just below the wall again with no luck. A few fish jumping about 2 ks below the wall but was unable to hook one on either worms or the spinners I had going.
I have only just started to get into fishing and my daughter is perhaps a little sick of me not catching anything but we will see how we go going forwards.
