Fishing near Manly, New South Wales

In Sydney, New South Wales, sits Manly. Water lies on more than one side of the place. What sits closest: 11.9 km out stands Kippax Lake, 12.5 km out stands The Duck Pond to the south-west, 19.4 km out stands Towlers Bay, 34.6 km out stands Simpsons Bay to the south-west and 37.4 km out stands Prospect Reservoir. Prospect Reservoir is worth a look when the shallow water elsewhere has warmed too far. The area trades in still water rather than flow. Where two depths meet, work the seam between them. There is no cold close season. Cool nights in the off season lift the fishing. Kippax Lake, the closest, runs to roughly 1 hectares. Kippax Lake has mapped parking, which saves a long carry. Open records for Sydney list mulloway, common carp and Australian sea bream. Weekday evenings are the quietest time on most of these. Kippax Lake is the one most people from Manly fish first....
