queensland On Da Weed With Luke

[Dinodadog]

Luke and I decided to fish the edges in amongst the weed.It was to be a short walk, which turned into about 10 k around trip.Managed to have a good nights sleep, well good for me slept through from 9 till 3 this morning. It kills me but I just love fishing the edges in dam or creek.

Anyway the fishing was great, we would bunny hop each other along the bank fishing the gaps in the weed, Most fish would strike just as the spinnerbait reached the front of the weed, then it was on to get the fish threw the weed, best idea was to try and skim the fish over the top of the weed. We lost afew fish but still managed to land well over 60 bass and the one yella. That cheeky Luke said ah well I suppose I'll see you in a month when you recover to do it again.

one of the advatages of low water levels is that it makes it easier to walk the bank.

Good session.

That's quite a walk and quite a session.

Plenty of rest stops I guess. haha

What weight spinnerbaits do you use ?

[Drop Bear]

Great session mate well done.

You are an inspiration to us.

Nice one Dino. Skimming them over weeds reminds me of fishing lake k years ago. Find any lures ?

awesome Dino. Great exercise Do you think they might start hitting topwater on the edges as well? Is it getting warm enough?

and here i was thinking this was a post about a new pain management strategy... 

cracking session - 60+ fish landbased is awesome, well worth the walk and subsequent recovery down time.

Been using 1/2 oz, get a feeling how deep the water is in front of you and ajust  how high or low you hold your rod.

I will be trying the topwater next time first up and not walking as far.

If that heading makes you think about pain management Benno, you’re getting too old. Me, it took me back to my youth.

Hey Dino

Great session. 10KM is a massive walk but sixty fish makes it worth the while.

That's an average of about a fish per 167M!  

Cheers Hamish
