After spending Saturday doing this

the following morning a couple of strangers (some stranger than others) followed me down to a spot I sussed out on the way to the dam.

We soaked some unweighted worms and found a fish or two

Fisherman X with his biggest for the morning

Then Fisherman X hooked up on a monster eel and I called dibbs on it for TerryH's shark bait but the eel was too much for X to handle

Dassa even got in on the action, and suprised everyone by actually catching a fish all by himself!

KAF found the sweet spot and pulled a couple

Then to show us how its done, he hooked a 5lb leaping saratoga that took off and bricked him in a snag, then when he finally netted it, it had metamophisized into another crap :pinch:

Soon enough we were starving and having done our bit to clean up our waterways headed into Boonah for breakfast

My boat was running good when I first arrived at the dam so I shot up the back and fourth cast with the tn60 I got this little fella, 32cm B)

I made my way back to the basin where Grant and I had some luck on our previous trip. On my way out of the bay the oil pump decided to fry so I dropped the pick and had a nossy at the motor, not that I have any idea whats going on in there. While sitting there I had a worm out the back and got this fella at 36cm B)

They do go hard Henry. While the boys were ginning about up top I had one hit me on fly and got owned in about half a second. Yet again a massive fail in the fresh gor me with the wand, might just stick to chasing gt's with it :blush:

Grant, catching 1 bass doesn't make you the master :unsure:
