Looking for a quick fishing fix this arvo and had another great little session down at Dennis Lake, spent an hour down there landed 3 bass all over 40 cm and lost another 4 in the weed (Man it tests u out down there). All fish released and caught on shrimp under float.

Its awesome mate, only thing I wonder is how regularly it is stocked as the smallest I have caught is around the 38 cm mark, so don't think it is stocked regularly but if everyone plays the catch and release game it shouldn't matter

That's right mate, hopefully people don't abuse it. Do you see many people fishing there?

[Aaron H]

Only fished it twice and never seen anyone the locals look funny at me though:laugh:

[Rocket75]

All the locals look "funny" out that way don't they?? :silly:

Looks like fun, might need some heavier gear to extract them out of the weed?

:laugh: Watch it mate don't start a North vs South war:laugh: I'm using my North Pine set up but a lot of the weed is that thick aquatic stuff like Maroon, fish comes up with about 5kg of weed wrapped around it :laugh: , haven't found a lure that will stay weed free long enough except poppers bring on summer

[bretto]

Is it the dam that comes up as daisy hill park on google maps just off springwood road.

[Nastymind]

Do you need a permit to fish this lake?

It's not far from my work and i wouldn't mind throwing a lure around one afternoon.

[Aaron H]

Went and picked up nine more this arvo all around the 42cm mark and fat as anything, met Tom B who came out and caught one just as I was leaving, no permit needed Nastymind

[chubbstar]

I have eaten bass out of the Hinze they were good, would never eat them out of Dennis Lake, it is only a small dam and don't know how often it is stocked so I put them back to catch them again

[ellicat]

[tacklebox]

[Aaron H]
