queensland Crawdad @ Hinze Dam

[STU]

Got out early this am with plasticman for our second trip to Hinze in the crawdad last time was winter and we got 0 so today made up for that with 25 landed:woohoo: 16 of Andrews and 9 of mine, all were caught on spinnerbaits and 2 where on ecogear crankbait casting to the points where the water was covering the grass, we ran into the afo crew as we were heading back in they were just going out Finally met Jimmybob so was good to see some faces again it rained on us about 5 times but it wasnt that bad as long as we where catching bass no toga but Andrew spooked one when casting to the shallows and we could not see any action on the sounder as it was playing up again:angry: .Biggest bass went 42cm forklength most around 38cm only 2 undersize.

What out fit did you use Andrew? Is that a Abu on a Ian Miller? What line? and how light can you go with the lures?

Gezz I love the look of the crawdad.

[Plastic Man]

brian its a shimano calcutta 100b on a raider 10lb main line and 10 leader i wouldnt go lighter then 10lb mate

[Brian D]

Thanks Andrew,

Lures - how light can you go?

Main line braid I quess?

[Plastic Man]

yeah mate braid i was using 3/8 but you could use 1/4 spinnerbaits if you want i dont think it really mattered what size you use there

[adventure_angler]

Great session STU and Plastic Man, always look forward to your reports. Dont take notice of people making useless posts in your threads, the majority of people on here enjoy reading your reports!

Next time we have a event on there may need you to come along and share some of your knowledge on techniques etc.

You certainly outfished the rest of us.

Cheers

[Plastic Man]

all it was ray was fishing the points with spinnerbaits we did do a lot of casts for those 25 bass but was all worth it

Sorry Andrew I meant what size lure does the 100b cast before it comes too light. On 10lb that would meke it even harder.

Another good showing from you guys. Well done:)
