queensland North Pine Dam Survey Day 2.

Not as many fish today as we ran out of bait with 130 bass boated so we really cannot complain especially as I took pity on my son and gave him a couple of handfuls of shrimp as he hardly had any.
Basically we boated a total of 280 bass in around 8 hours fishing time over the 2 days.
50 bass tagged,weighed,measured and released.
230 bass measured,weighed and released.
10 bass recaptured that had been previously tagged.
Cheers

Did it a bit tougher this year. Last year we used all our tags 20 foot from the ramp, didn't even turn my motors on.

This year we had to travel a good 200 metres.

Thanks to Ray for topping up our shrimp supplies today, his generosity resulted in a new record number caught for my boat in a day.

We fished 2 hours each day before running out of bait.  Couldn't give a lure or jig away, tried for 2 hours yesterday., didn't bother today. Some of the blokes cleaned up on jigs, I don't know how they are using them, but obviously not any of the ways I tried them!
