With the upcoming school holidays many of the local family fishing lakes are worth a visit to get the kids out of the house, or just relax with a bait in the water. Wether it’s Rowville, Cranbourne or Moorabbin there are plenty of local trout lakes worth a stop at for a full list of stocked lakes be sure to click the following link.

List of stocked lakes

Up at Eildon the pondage has been dropped back to the old river bed and the trout have been firing. The various colours of Powerbait have been the gun bait when fished just above the weed. We also just received a drop of locally made Trout Dough that is absolutely A1 in any stocked trout lake.

Customer John had a relaxing session up on the Pondage at Eildon with some powerbait. John managed a trio of fit rainbows up to around 4lb which are prevalent around the pondage at the moment. With water levels currently reduced to the old river bed the fish have been confined to less water and worth a shot to land a couple before the water level is raised.
