Hey Tommy.

Never fished the Mordy creek m'self but just looking at it I'd be amazed if there's not Ee;ls in there somewhere.
Definitely worth a try I reckon.

guess i will have to bait up with some worms and chicken livers one night and see if i can catch any. they just want wayyyy to much money for them in the bait shops. like 8 dollars for one.

Good bit of fatty red meat always works well also.
Generally blood + smell = eels.

Good luck Tommy.

ok thanks bill will give it a try and see if i can catch a few. i know they are great gummy bait but the snapper also like them. i caught my first big snapper from Port Philip bay using eel for bait. so i know they are great bait and they last really well when sea lice are out because the meat and skin is really tough.
