Aussie Bass

[MrEvolution]

guys i was just wondering i know that we can get bass in the locals creeks and dams in nsw but i have a mate in melbourne that has been fishing fresh water for a long time but has never taken to a aussie bass. i have a book fishing in nsw at the end of the book its got descriptions of fish and in a little picture it shows you can get them down in vic. would any1 know if you can catch them down there i know it maybe a long shot question but its for a mate hes a freshwater fisherman. thanks
any help and/or information appreciated

Being from vico I havecaught them in Bullen Merri near Camperdown in Western Victoria. They are really only active in the summer months, which is great because it is when the trout and chinook salmon shut down in the lake. There are probably a couple of other impoundments that are stocked, check with fisheries in vic to find them. There are also heaps of estuaries in western vic that have good populations of estuary perch, which are relatives of the australian bass. The lower Glenelg River is a good place to target them.
hope this helps.
