I was wondering if anyone knows if there are Channel Cats above the dam in Galetta ? The reason I say above is because I imagine anywhere below this time of year would be moving too fast.

Should be!!!

Try shore fishing off the boat lauch at fitzroy harbour near sundown, caught few cats there.

Thanks guys. I think I'll try above the Galetta dam till 5ish then head over to the boat launch. If this fails, I will be in the seafood dept @ Loblaws for 830ish....

Nah the bite at Lablows does not start till around 10am or so...

Not necessarily and if you are fishing at Fitzroy you will be directly below a dam that is just a little bit bigger than the one in Galetta.

Channel cats aren't adverse to current. They hang out in the holes and behind breaks and they will come and get your bait when it's time to eat.

Just did a quick inventory of my gear. Heaviest weight I have is a 1-1/2oz egg.... Will this suffice? Thanks guys

There are lots of pools that you can cast to below the dam that are out of the current....walk down to the water and stay beside the left of the generating station...

Anybody wanna go tonight?

Me and the wifey will be there, or atleast in that area....

Cool!

What time? I am free after 6:30...
I can bring worms etc if needed.

Regardless of fast or slow current... no fishing below the galletta generating station til 3rd Sat. in may... sanctuary

We've got an arse load of worms. We will be in the area for around 5, just look for the couple that almost look like tourists. I will be in a Dickies jacket to try and compensate.

Looks like above the dam it is. Or the boat launch. After a quick double check of the regs....Thanks Con....

I have the regs out, with a copy of the backroads mapbook and I cannot find the sanctuary you speak of.... Wonder if this would hold up in court.
