if your happy with catch and release fishing (not keeping for a feed)you have a great river only 10 minutes from home that being the nepean river bass,carp and mullet are the most targeted species there i gave caught all 3 on lure and bait great way to pass a cpl of hours if ya got nuthn better to do plenty of shore based spots from camden to windsor including penrith
a cpl of spots you might want to try the rowing club at penrith and opposite side of the river emu plains below the weir at penrith richmond plenty of land based access there around the windsor bridge is another good spot
google earth is a fishos best friend plenty of water to explore
bass=lures im against bait fishing for bass but its up to you
carp=bread or corn baits i find unweighted the best but a small sinker is fine to
mullet=bread baits float fishing
all great to target and go bloody hard an light gear
but if you go lure bass fishing i can not be held responsible for and sort of addiction you and your partner may get
forgot to mention if fishing for any of these species morning or afternoon by far the best time to fish or in the middle of the night for bass is the best but tht one a secret ok
just have to give the river a week to settle as all this rain we've had has it about 1 meter higher than what it is normally
