Yeah had to kill the fish because they are invasive and eat the aussie bass spawn

Yeah i had a spinner bait and flicked it around some lilipads for the best part of an hour but no success. I think ill get down there again and try a different part of the dam for some bass

Wow thanks mate so many options to try ill be sure to give it another go soon thanks

Went Fishing today at manly Dam aiming to get my first fish out of there. We were targeting carp using Corn on a weighted rig. Were waiting for about an hour when my rod took off with the fish. Put up a good fight on my 1000 reel and 2-4kg rod. Took a while to get it in but it ended up going about 45cm. Very happy with this catch. I know its not a very impressive fish to catch although it is one I have always wanted to catch. If anyone knows any ways to get any bigger ones let me know. If anyone has any other tips of good carp fishing rigs or bait, ect. would love to know because I will definitely be out there trying to catch another one soon. We were using a mixture of corn and breadcrumbs as bait.

thanks for that kingie chaser sorry im still trying to work out this website

Hey guys I have fished around quite a-lot recently on the northern beaches recently (mainly around manly area). Although I have planned to go fishing with my mate at narrabeen lake. I am thinking about going soft plastics fishing on the stretch close to the ocean to try get some flathead, although if anyone has been fishing in this area before and has any good strategies either baits or lures which work information would be much appreciated. Thanks.

awesome thanks guys rlly helpful. hopefully I can get out there and get some this weekend

Hey I have been fishing at Manly Dam a few times and never been successful with anything ( I have tried lures for bass and bait for carp). I am wanting to tick both these fish off my list but I am aiming to go for carp first. Does anyone have any tips for getting a carp out of manly dam. Thanks.
