Want to find rifle shrimp at Coffs harbour

[FishBeast]

I am on holiday at the moment and snuck a net, holding tank and air pump in. :)

I would love to catch some rifles as I have wanted some for ages.

Does anyone here know where I can find a great shrimp catching Creek or river?

Yep they are in the two creeks mentioned. You just have to look in the right place - riffles. Look under rocks at the edges of the fastest flowing sections and in areas where there is slack water or back eddies within the riffles. They will be there, and if you find one, there will be others very close by.

Excellent - thankyou, and just scoop them with a little hand net im guessing.

Yep hand nets.
