Back in 1997 I'd fish all along the merri creek between the old Kodak factory right up to the big rocking bridge near the vegi farm at Harding st. Used to catch heaps of roach and massive carp but since around 1999-2000 the roach seemed to have disappeared but still catching tones of eels and carp. But seeing you catch roach has made me wanna try again.
As an Englishman living in Australia, I never knew there were roach over here, especially in the rivers. You’ve made my day mate!!! Brilliant video. Anything close to a pound is a huge fish.
Great vid mate, eat the redfin if chose and don't worry about anything apart from having a good time and sticking to the rules as you did. Good to see healthy creeks on the outskirts
Why are you throwing back the invasive species? Redfish, Roach, Carp and all of them including trout should never be returned to the water. This is stupid fishing if you are talking about blackfish..... Stay home.
@@lukesfishing4921I've said it before, I'll say it again. It's idiots like you who are destroying out fisheries. You have no idea what you are talking about and your " I'll do what I like attitude", that goes against all conservation efforts is shithouse.
This video was so awesome. I loved every second of it. Well done. 👍👍
PS... I can never spit out the word Galaxias either. LOL 😢
