Good day at NPD today with Rick and Neil

 

Had to work a bit harder than last trip ending up with 99 bass,couple of good yellas and one lone forky.

 

Would have caught a lot more but Neil wished to tag some bass. He was not up to the task at one stage he had 4 fish queued up in the landing net so Rick and I had to stop while he caught up.

 

Best bass was around 47cm and Neils yella went a respectable 61cm and Ricks only 56cm

 

Bit of a drama on the way home as axle on trailer slipped backwards and jammed the tyre into the mudguard so the boat came home on the back of a tilt tray so looks like I have a project tomorrow.

Two respectable yellas, but only 99 bass. Hmmm

If you need a dogs body to help with the trailer, I'm free all Friday.

Thanks Brian Rick and I will fix it tomorrow.

Cheers Ray

Great day out there Ray and although the axle drama is a shame, I'm glad it didn't cause you an accident. Hope it is an easy fix.

Hi rayke1938

Great job on all the bass, and those are very big yellas. Roughly how big do they get do you know? 

Hopefully you can fix the trailer no problem as well,

Cheers Hamish

I run both motors at 9.9 if you use 10 it bypasses the maximiser the lower setting make no difference to top speed.

Adult golden perch can reach a maximum weight of 23 kilograms and 76 centimetres in length, however, they are most commonly caught under 5 kilograms and 40-50 centimetres in length.Adult golden perch can reach a maximum weight of 23 kilograms and 76 centimetres in length, however, they are most commonly caught under 5 kilograms and 40-50 centimetres in length.

 I personally Have not seen many over 60cm in npd as they get older they just get rounder the larger ones seem to come from southern states, the growing conditions must suit them more.
