Bit wet today. It was just starting to drizzle when we launched at 5.3 and by the time i parked the car and returned to the boat hughie sent it down. Reckon we would have had close to 2 inches by 9am. At one stage visibility was down to a couple of hundred yards.I noticed the boat was starting to plow a bit and when i turned on the bow bilge pump it took around 20 minutes before it started to suck air.
Shrimp were scarce with more small redclaw than shrimp in the traps. Final tally 2 forkies.1 tilapia that was foul hooked,1 yella and 20 bass.
Cheers

ps see the dam has risen by .3 % since midnight hopefully they had plenty in the catchment and more will inflow overnight.

well done braving the wet weather.  think all SEQ catchments will be that dry we need a fair bit more rain before we get good inflows.

 

hopefully the rain has cleaned off some of percy's leavings from the ramp?

only came up by .1% to 6am o looks like not much went into catchment. Ramp is a lot cleaner now but wont take long to pong up again. Cheers

Nice one mate. I wish we had that sort of rain down here. Cant complain. We have had a good amount... still want more but that is something I don't just keep to rain.... perhaps that is something I need to talk to someone about...
