hi mate, u landbased or boat? I would use live bait.. catch a few shrimp using traps. Otherwise, probably spinnerbaits or hardbodies (E.T. cicada range, gidgees etc)are the way to go..

As for a good spot?? trial and error, heaps of persistence pays off.

im land based fishing. i dont have any hard bodies so might have to go out and buy some. thanks for the tips ill just have to walk around the dam untill i find a good spot. whats a good time to head out there but?

early morning around 5am til bout midday, then from 4pm til night.

fish around lilly pads, and right into any other structures.. you should pull in few. Have a look at Dino's landbased reports.

Good luck mate and hope to see a report soon.

where abouts is the pine rivers park? i wouldent mind going out and getting rid of a few talapia. i was fishing there a few years ago for that talapia killing contest they had a few years back and me and a mate pulled in about 200 while we were there, as soon as our lines hit the water we hooked up, we used a small sinker and live worms

hey everyone tried the north pine dam for an hour but didnt catch a thing, got bitten by heaps of mossies and the water down there is soo bad. there was dead eel tail catfish floating on the water and had red marks all over them. so decided to go to the woody piont jetty and a fella there landed a nice 3 foot bull shark
