Hey guys, something a bit different this time, running through an easy way to get into fishing lures around melbourne. Fisheries victoria have just stocked a bunch of lakes across victoria with catchable size Rainbow trout including; Albert Park Lake, Karkarook, Eildon Pondage, Lilydale Lake, Pakenham Lake, Yarrambat Lake.

Another great video mate. A couple of nice little rainbows there, that last one was a bit feisty.

If you are game jump over the fence of silvan resevoir. The brownies average about 3 to 4 pound. My best was a 76 cm jack brownie. Awesome fishing but its illegal. My advice is to run into the bush when the water guy is driving at you. He wont chase you but he will try and get you when you go to your car. Sometimes you wont be bothered but sometimes you have to run! i cant resist because the fis are in great condion. no fin clips. i think yhey spawn in the 2 creeks that run in and out. I sometimes bring the fly rod but mostly the spin rod.. its absolutly brilliant and i wish they would allow the public to fish here. ps. its best spring and autumn and a bit of wind and chop brings those beautiful brownies in clse.

I haven't seen anything caught on a tassie there but have no doubt they would eat them. There's not many of the big ones left but I spotted one the day this was filmed
