    • @FishBeyondBorders
      @FishBeyondBorders 4 месяца назад

      My videos are not for everyone but the Genoa is. Agree certain waterways should remain anonymous, but it is no secret the Genoa holds bass and a Google search confirms this. My favourite is the Victorian Fisheries Authority website and the Inland Angling Guide describing the "abundant" population of bass. A great public resource (vfa.vic.gov.au/recreational-fishing/fishing-locations/inland-angling-guide/areas/east-gippsland/east-gippsland-angling-waters#genoa). This happens to be the same publication I used in the 90s as reference. Add to this the fact that Mallacoota and the Genoa are the most popular fisheries in far East Gippsland attracting thousands of visiting anglers from all over, and there simply isn't a more popular waterway in the region. The bass have always been available for the angler willing to put in the hard yards. If anything, rising awareness, good management practices including stream rehabilitation works have only improved the fishery.

    • @FishBeyondBorders
      @FishBeyondBorders 10 месяцев назад

      Indeed a cool looking fish. Apparently the fish congregate below the weir and are caught all year. Not a spawning run and the warmer months are best for fishing. Some big ones amongst them! Unsure about the darker fish but they're occasionally caught in the area. Also some long nose / alligator hybrids.
