queensland N.P.D friday morning

[STU]

Went to the dam for three hrs this morning before I got to go to the coast for a conference in search of that elusive 60cm but I went to my usual haunt threw every thing at them there all I got was one that busted me off on a snag:evil: so running out of time I went to another spot got 5 bass in 5 casts first one busted me again:evil: on a snag but landed the other 4 three were just legal and 1 went 48 to fork:) all in all better than being at work:woohoo: They were all caught on plastics.

Nice one Stu. Good fish there.

I'm going to give that spot a few tries again next week.

[STU]

good luck mate hopefully you do better than I did there

[Gordo]

Nice report Stu, today is a great day for fishing. It seems like some people are getting success with sp's. Did you use berkley scented sp's or unscented ones?

[Oceandonkey]

Is the correct mesurement (fisheries if they want to fine you) to the tip of the tail or to the V point in the middle????

[Angus]

Nice one guys. I am going to try to get up there next week sometime.

Oceandonkey: DPI Measures it to the tip. Thus that would be the legal measurement.

Hi Stu

Was out the dam myself this morning. Did not see anyone . There was a couple of Vietnamese families.

Caught 6 legals with the biggest 40cm amd also 1 small yella. But you can pass on to plasticman that I tried the baby bass plastic and got a fish on my first cast.

Going to leave the spinnerbaits and jackals at home for a while and practise with plastics.

How light is the gear you use? Any clues would be appreciated.

Cheers

dino i use 6lb main line and 10lb leader and a 1/4 jighead thats been working for me also good work stu for me they have been hard to get on the spiners and crankbaits plastics are the go now i think il be there sunday to try for that 60 plus

[Dinodadog]

Good luck but I will be trying to.

Cheers

Dino HA HA

Stu,

Are they those revhead jigheads with the spinny thing on them?

[Tim a]

Nice bass,

What retrieve do you do for sps? slow rolling or does it have some hops in it? For jackalls I usually use a slow rolling and same for spinner baits but I'm having trouble with sp's on bass. So far I've tried all my bream lures + 3\" mullet(gulp) and 3\" pogy. Still nothing has worked.

Any Tips master?

[Plastic Man]

yeah mate i fish with stu all the time try a really slow retrieve with stops and little hops we use the slider grub in the baby bass colour with 1/4 jighead and as light line as you can and aaron they are those jigheads you are talkiong about good luck

[Tim a]

Thanks ! karma to you!

[Plastic Man]

thanks mate you have to share the things you know around no secerts here mate

[Plastic Man]

thanks mate you have to share the things you know around no secerts here mate

[Plastic Man]

sorry about that someone take it off

[blue_mako]

Next time I'm out there I'll be leaving the baitcast outfit at home and bringing the Bream stick. 3lb Crystal Fireline, 8lb leader with noodle rod equals extreme fun! :woohoo: . Plus it's not as costly with plastics so I can afford to fish light . Used plastics on the bc tackle on the weekend and had a bit of success so I'm keen to try it again.

Sounds like a fun plan Troy. Hope you got some loot for replacing that fireline if you do get onto that mythical 60cm plus bass, coz he's going to see how far across the dam he can get it!
