catching fish

[Scottie]

does anyone knowif there is there any where on the gold cosst/brisbane or near-by where you can catch cool fish like rainbowfish.....and thats legal?

Rainbows like clear running water
I think the best spots would be at a head of a river or stream
Most people I know use those small bait traps just put a half slice of bread in
And see what u get
But leave it in the water till u r just about to leave they don't survive to long in a buket a battery air pump would be a good idear there about 24$ at amart all sports
Good luck

Ok scoop nets are illegal traps are legal. So don't take your aquarium net traps are reasonably inexpensive and bread is definately best for bait it I have also been told cheep no name brand soap is good but never tried it.

Aparrently cheap soap is really good at attracting alot of diff fish and crabs as well though i think we should not do it as adding sopa and detergents to the water untreated can only have a bad effect on the water
