queensland Borumba Toga :(

[Nog]

Well we got a few Bass on fly at least.

Trouty fly mate from Melbourne had a small Toga almost to the boat before it spat the fly in disgust.

Beautiful dam though even if the fishing was hard. Sorry about photos, all from the phone

Little fat Bass

Just one more cast before the sun sets

Beautiful Scenery Mate and a nice bass to go. I dont know about you, but if it were me and judging by the pictures, I would have just been happy to be in such a beautiful place. Beating a doughnut for the day would be a bonus!

Borumba such a great place. Maybe the water is getting a bit cool for the toga, I don't really know. I have done well there mainly at sparrows fart, just as the sun is cracking the horizon until about 830ish with poppers and Tomca has done well there at dusk with fly.

Can be a bit hard on fly to tempt the bass there, but its easier when they are schooled up in winter. I think I need to get up there for one last 'toga bash before winter though.

There were Bass schooling deep off the main basin points but they weren't in the mood for my fly.

Water temp dropped 4C in a week so that have made a difference too.

wow that is very nice scenery... ahhh fishing when there is a scenery like that is just relaxing as!

[tomca]

Barometer showing low pressure probably didn't help either. They can be frustrating little buggers at times no matter what you throw at them

Hi Norm - Got to love Borumba Dam. It is my favorite local Dam. I am still to actually land a Toga yet. The topwater strikes there are sooo much fun. Nice looking little Bass there. Did you camp up there or just the day trip?

[dassa]

YES nog it is the prettest dams I have fished but one is for sure it gets BLOODY cold in winter,very short days in the canyion around and bad luck with the toga did the same thing with my first one and only. :dry:

Hey pussca when are you looking at heading up if you tow we can take sea'n'thing's and give the electric a good run

cheers dassa

Stayed at the Deer Park overnight. All fish were late arvo fisrt day and early morning next day.

and yes a low barom 1014 didn't help much. But I think it was more the Southerly with cold nights previous that shut them down......I think;)

[crazywalrus]

The Deer Park is great. I always stay there, great for the kids and electricity to charge the batteries. Better luck next time with the Toga.

Those photos will get me back nog. It's a beautiful place.

I was there late August last year for the first time and I think just being on the water in a top spot covers for less fish. I stayed at the park near the dam. Fantastic.

Back again this year, same time.

Caught some bass 33 to fork on lure, but couldn't get a toga. Did it out of a kayak and it was bliss. Chucked all the little red/white pills away while I was there.

(I'm harmless).

Thanks for the reminder.
