Are there specific bait recommendations for fishing at the Hacking River?

When fishing in the Hacking River, prawns and worms are excellent choices for targeting species like bream and flathead. Fresh or live bait tends to produce the best results. • If you're after something a bit different, try using soft plastic lures that mimic small fish or crustaceans; many local anglers swear by them. • It's helpful to chat with local fishermen or staff at nearby bait shops for tailored advice, as they often know what's currently working well in the river.
