help with red fin


Recommended Posts

Did catch one once from sturt reserve at Murray Bridge on tiger worms......Only one I've ever got from the Murray.

 

Adelaide Hills would definitely be a better percentage option for Redfin, all the main rivers and creeks that have water all year round hold reddies. Most dams have redfin aswell if you have access

Warren Reservoir has redfin, though you will need a permit from RecfishSA to fish it.

Quite a few small fish to persevere with, but the bigger redfin still turn up.

They love crawlers and glow worms up there, tiger worms also work, but not so well.

Small spinners are dynamite, but small metal blades also work a treat, as do small vibes.

You might need to move around at times to locate the fish, which often school up together, so if you catch one, you will often catch more til they move on.

Very early morning or late arvo are best times, but they can still fire during the day.

Also, if using lures with trebles, trail some red fluffy wool from the hooks, stimulates redfin to bite....they love the colour red.
