Back to NPD this morning with Rick. When we were there yesterday we replaced 4 of our shrimp traps with opera house pots and the move paid off.

I thought we would do ok with the pots having only an overnight soak and the plan paid off with 85 redclaw out of 8 pots.

We still had plenty of shrimp left over from yesterday and headed downstream to Andrews dropoff whee he had non stop action. Glad we had a cuppa and something to eat on the way down as by 10 0clock we declared a break to have a bite to eat and a rest from catching fish.

When we first pulled up I was a greedy bugger and set bup 3 rods all at different depths and ended up with a triple hook up and a horrible tangle that I just cut away and went to just one rod.

We saw Ferg trolling around and invited him over and he was happy to immediately score a couple of 45cm bass which was a consolation prize after

losing a large toga earlier on.

The bite slowed down after our break so we decided we would have an early knock off and ended up with 95 bass and 1 tandan.

Cheers

Ray

@rayke1938, don’t forget  to do the peace sign thing for the Suburbs of Origin Comp. The southsiders are relying on you for the bass category.

Great report mate. That is a cracking day out. Wow that is so many red claw. If there are any decky spots next week I would love to come along. The pins come out of my foot tomorrow and I will be up for it by next week or anytime after that. I need a feed of red claw

fantastic work and thanks for a great read.
