Foggy Baroon Pocket.

[rayke1938]

We have been trying to get up to Baroon Pocket dam for a while and been thwarted either due to availability or the dam closed due to rainfall. We finally made it this morning to find the visibility near zero due to a heavy fog that did not lift until around 8am. We used the gps to find one of out usual spots and found the bass hungry . We pulled around 40 before they went quiet so we went upstream and could not find any bass so we went downstream and found another school where we ran out of shrimp . Final tally was 62 bass and one tandan. Largest bass went 42cm and the tandan 58cm. Only disappointment was that Bucks pies were closed due to anzac day. 2 fish kept for the table others all tagged and released.

The water always looks so good with fog on it.

Good numbers. Worth the drive.

Good stuff Ray, sounds like an excellent session. Shame the pie shop was closed.

Looks like you had a good day Ray.

I presume you got the job done for Bill?

Pie shop shut - what a tragedy -a total  unjust ending to the day!

Bill was very happy to fill his quota in under 2 hours.

Just under 300k round trip makes a long day.

Yes it’s certainly a fair trip up there from the Southside of Brisbane, especially on a public holiday .
Presume you got rewarded with quality fish .

We got back from our  stint dog sitting at Bribie yesterday and I  went for a whiting fish this morning. There was a heap of boats out down the Pin. Surprisingly I managed to find a quiet spot out of the chaos  and got a nice feed of pretty good fish  .
