SPY 0 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 why did they put up the big fence we fish it all the time and get some thumper bream on plastics there but never tried to eat them not sure on water quality Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pescados 1 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Says SPY: why did they put up the big fence we fish it all the time I don't know as I never been to St Kilda but at a guess I would suggest that as per norm, the idiots and morons stuffed it up for those who do the right thing.I know an area which recently has been fixed up and sure enough the hoons were the last night and sprayed gravel everwhere.

SPY 0 Posted July 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 good point they probably did stuff it up it makes it harder for us to find good land based spots in any weather condition Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Del 245 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 going on what was said today at teh kayak fishing trip. bream should be released anyways... takes about 9-10 yrs of growth to gate to legal size.. but yes.. it only takes a few idiots to stuff things up for everyone else!!!

Highfly 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Sorry pillie ya trippin mate, lolBreambos are awesome tucker, better than snapper if you ask me. lolI was always led to believe that they took about 5 years to get to legal size. I wouldnt eat a breambo outta the Port, west lakes or anywhere called shit creek However I would glady keep any I caught out of clean water and I would take them eagerly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cal 480 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 G"day spy,where abouts have they put the fence mate,I assume near the boatramp area?Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kayakfisher 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 If its where I think it is its back befor the tram museum. Its just a concrete drain that goes under the road and is called shit creek because it runs from bolivar. I've seen some good bream and some monster carp caught by a guy outta there but I would never fish it and NEVER EVER eat anything from there. I would guess its been fenced off because its probably not a good idea for people to come into contact with the water running through it, or anything with water from the drain dripping off it.

snapperhead 523 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 When Ive been coming back from St Kilda Ive seen plenty of people fishing that area just after the tram museum and I always wondered what they were catching there.Personally I thought you would have to be pretty desperate to catch a fish to even contemplate fishing there but once or twice I thought about stopping just to see what was going on.Thats all though I would never in my wildest dreams think about pulling out a rod and trying cheerssnapps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SPY 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 yes the creek before the tram place. follow it on google map and it runs out to the ocean so cant be that bad water Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kayakfisher 0 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Yes it runs into the ocean but where is the other end??? It wouldn't be too bad if it was tidal but By the colour of the water not sure that it is. Even if the water is treated to a level to be flowing out into the ocean doesn't mean its clean.

Cal 480 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 I know the one,yes its an outlet drain that runs treated water from bolivar out to an outflow in the mangroves somewhere between st kida and pt gawler.Looked at the whole thing in detail on google earth.Its freshwater one side,but the tide pushes right up it.I"ve heard of even schools of mullies in it.Think of way better places to wet a line to be honest.Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
