Thanks for the creds guys.
Another venue for bait bank angling would be Erina Spa, just below the Barrage.
Beware though the word Spa, is a misnomer. It USED to be, but is now three quarters broken down, with NO ameneties whatsoever. :unhap  The place was sold to developers 3 years ago and they seem to have hit a pothole.
 
Below the islands the river is wide with few snag places and some really deep holes not far from the bank. Day rates are not that hefty,E 20 pppd AFAICR.
Some REALLY big fish came out here in Summer, and with the flows stabilised , the right day in winter should produce at least a few fish. :-)
If we caught fish on every trip, it would be called " Catching". We don't, and that's why it's called "Fishing".
