mate :)
i have fished and hunted downstream from there most of my life.
mostly you catch are carp, yellas,silvers and cod in that order ;)
shrimp and yabbies are the best bait, garden worms are good but not the best bait.
a small shrimp trap is a must and place the trap near a tree in the river with some meat or fish gut.
when fishing i use a running sinker rig and cast near any log in deep water.
looking forward to some pics from your trip :) :)
