Hi Everyone, its been a while since my last report due to being overseas and 12 hour days at work, so i figured a contribution is long overdue.

This post is in addition to Rayke1938's recent NPD 29/06/2010 report, link below

Sorry Ray, i thought id include the below photos in this seperate post

Ray, a gentleman as always invited me for a fish at NPD on Tuesday to make use of my last day of holiday. Believe it or not, it was my first Freshwater fishing trip in 10 years!!

The day started off with a chill, but fresh. There was a very light westerley but the conditions were glassy and all seemed perfect, and perfect it was to be!!

The sunrise says it all... a perfect start to a perfect day

glassy conditions.. Im finally converted to Freshwater fishing after 10rys of being salt poisoning!

Well, our plan was to hit the pots for a haul of redclaws first then off to Spot x for a fish.

It wasnt long before we filled up the buckets, but geez, i couldnt believe how big some of those redclaw monters would be!

Then off we went and picked up a few live shrimp then straight to spot x where we also bumped into Dinodadog and also Feral (Rayke1938's son) and his daughter. It was a pleasure to meet you both!

It wasnt long before Ray landed this beauty

Ray was quick to rebait

5 mins later...

a few moments later then i was on

and then this... a yella which smashed the small shrimp like a steam train

After that Ray and i were constantly busy. I lost count around 15 fish but i think total was around 24 for the day.

Dino came over to say gday and showed what he had caught at spot D

I couldnt have asked for a better day to end my holiday. Ray once again, thank you for a wonderful day. Its always a pleasure fishin with you.

Cheers,

ty
