I think you will find the gates at West Lakes are operated by DETI. The level has to be maintained Too low and some of the concrete structures around the perimeter will be adversely affected Too high and the problem is obvious. West Lakes carries a lot of storm water A lot of storm water enters from behind the tin fence at Trimmer Parade end a lot enters from somewhere near the rowing club at the other end. At times of big rains the gates are just left open to allow storm water to escape At other times the level is monitored using the incoming or outgoing tide and gates at each end. All this makes it almost impossible to predict the position of the gates unless you contact DETI

Should work. I do know a pro snapper fisherman who says he uses carp as snapper bait when his is able to get some at the right price

Great site lots of good information Will definitely try this method out
