About Blue Lake
Blue Lake, in South Australia, Australia, is the kind of lake where a careful approach pays off. Shore anglers do well casting parallel to the bank along reed lines and overhanging trees, where ambush predators wait. Boat anglers can fan-cast points and submerged humps — anywhere the bottom changes depth quickly. Lure choice at Blue Lake usually mirrors the local forage: small baitfish imitations in spring, larger profiles through summer.

Fishing Techniques
- For Japanese meagre
Target Japanese meagre during low light conditions or at night, and work lures slowly and methodically near structure.
- For Southern black bream
Use light line and fluorocarbon leaders for stealth, as black bream can be easily spooked in clear water.
- For Striped mullet
Use a slow, steady retrieve when using lures, as mullet are not aggressive strikers; Chumming with bread can concentrate mullet in an area.
