queensland Baroon Pocket Donut

[Feral]

Well Ferg and I hit Baroon about 8:30 this morning (had to wait for the missus to get home from nightshift to look after kids).

Well the forcast was a bit crook as usual, the wind got up about 10ish, I'd reckon 20 knots by the way the trees were moving - the 2 foot slop making it to uncomfortable to fish in the open, so worked all the lee shores. Did not see a bass all day, saw a couple of schools of spangleds on the sounder, but could not even tempt them!

Gave it away about 1:30 and headed home.

That's 3 trips in a row to Baroon without seeing a Bass, I reckon its fairly odds on a lot of the bass have gone over the wall with the recent flows in the last couple of months.

Wont bother trying Baroon again until summer I reckon.

I'm certainly no expert Feral, but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that the shoreline that's not wind sheltered is the best to try in a dam.

[Feral]

Generally true, as all the crap and tucker blows that way, but not when it comes up in half an hour!

[ellicat]

You just didn't stay long enough then:laugh:

Still - better than staring at 4 walls:unsure:

It seems that most dams are pretty shut down atm

but atleast its a day on the water

Surely not "turning over" ?

I dunno, can't think of why there are so many donuts... Perhaps I should try going fishing to see what happens :laugh: at least I might be able to find where they are on the sounder....

Then again I think I might go bag some more squire/snapper

Perhaps I should try going fishing to see what happens at least I might be able to find where they are on the sounder

and its even worse when they black out the sounder but resist every offering you show them

Do they resist high-speed jigging?:ohmy:

Things are tuff in the coastal fresh atm by all reports...Schulzy's reports at W have been the only bright spot.

Haven't seen any Hinze reports for a while, I wonder how it's going with all the new water?

Thanks for the report Feral, shame about the lack of fishy co-operation:(
