Hello all,
 

I am new to this site and just wanted to share that Lower Molonglo River in Canberra is an excellent fishing area. I have been fishing this area for a while now and have caught several good sized Murray Cod and many Carp of course. If you are ever in Canberra then fishing in this area is highly recommended. The map below shows some of the good fishing spots that I have caught fish from:

Hi KMS. I have family in Canberra and come there occasionally. What are the names of the roads and are they accessible by 2 wheel drive vehicle? Any chance we could catch up for a days fishing over the Summer? I normally fish the Murrumbidgee River for Murray Cod, Trout Cod and Yellowbelly.    bn 0466853633.

Hello Neil,

Yes, this area is accessible by 2WD. You can park on the roadside somewhere near the crossing between Uriarra Road and Uriarra Loop Track as indicated by the labels #1 and #2 in the attached image. This place is awesome because you have Molonglo River on one side of the road and Murrumbidgee River on the other side. I call this place the Uriarra Fishing Corridor.

Sure, we can catch-up over fishing when you are in Canberra next. I will text you later today.
