I have caught an EP very much the same before, it's like they have stunted growth or something haha Not a long fish but big fish 😅 It's like they are already as built as a 45-50 model but the length is only around 25-30cm...
Nice one Michael! Great work, It looks so unnatural to be fishing there in a kayak, you see the odd person fishing off the bank in those sort of areas but i have never seen someone fishing out of a kayak there, you have gotta not wait until someone else does somthing to do it! There is maybe 4-5 hundred people employed where i work and i am the only one that rides a non-ebike to work one other bloke rides on e-bike it's about 17km out there so that puts a few off! It's amazing how there is still fish in such heavily populated areas, would the fish be any good to eat out of there or would they absorb to much pollution?
It's nice to walk to the beat of one's own drum Sandy. 100% This river is surprisingly healthy if the Perch population is ay indication. However, I release all I catch, as the Yarra's reputation is one of heavy metals, toxins and so on in the sediment. Decades of mismanagement have done that. E-bikes tossed in (including batteries) also had me wondering...
Seeing your line twitch when the EP first tapped at your SP. I rewatched that bit of the vid multiple times. gets the heart racing. Thanks for sharing
Yes, the tell tale flick - flick of an EP hit. Discrete yet evident.
Love the drift heavily accentuated features on that EP very cool
A very different kind of drift, under major city bridges. A bit different to what I usually do in the country.
Looks like a cross between a yella and a EP 😂
Nice fish! Keep up the great work!
Tight lines bro! 🎣🤙🎣🤙
Yep, this one had that characteristic 'hump' of a yella for sure. Pretty cool looking. Thanks for the comment.
You get around!
Tried to mix it up with some CBD trips in recent months. Change is as good as a holiday.

Yeah, the proportions are very different to the usual EP. Surprising to see, and cool too.
Looks like those bream youi were catching in the drain Bushy.
@@AndrewFishman they looked like snapper cross Bream 🤣🤣
Fishy fishy!

@Michael_Lane_Fishing yes those hire bikes, scooters ect are an environmental disaster!
Stuff fishing in there ! Your brave. Jee that water gives me the creeps
Heaps of people kayak the river in the city. No real dramas. All fish caught in the CBD are released.
Munted!
haha for sure.
