Had one of those great days out at NPD this morning when everything went right. Trolling was great, jigging was great and shrimping was great, result 138 bass and one yella. I have been doing well with plastics, working out how to use them to get a strike. I could of got a lot more fish but the thought of missing out on lunch scared me half to death.

Are you casting lures or baitfishing.

A bit of luck involved in your day -

Lucky you only have two arms and

Lucky for the bass it was lunch time.

I would go to Macgavins to the picnic area up the hill, head down to the water and throw spinnerbaits. Each time you change spots, let the first cast go to the bottom, counting as it goes down, then each cast after count down but stop it before it gets to the bottom, that way you keep  your lure a little longer. If you dont have any trouble with snags then you can try throwing something different. Dont just prop in the one spot, keep walking and casting.There is an article in the PRFMA site under articles and contributions on landbased fishing and some reference spots.

Thanks mate. I do have the option of getting a kayak as well but since it's my first time out there and will be my first time in a yak I may just keep it land based

Just remember you cant use a yak out there unless you get a boating permit from PRFMA those are SEQ water rules.

Oh ok wasn't aware of that. Thanks for letting me know 

[Dinodadog]

Permits are selling now $110 single or $150 family will last you till August next year. If you learn fast its the best money you can spend. You get to fish the north pine  arm of the dam about 1/3 of the dam. 2/3 of the dam is earmarked to be opened to the public in the future, that could be one to five years  away as the cost is enormous
