Another slow day with only 18 bass between the 2 of us. Best bass over 40 rest between 20 and 36.

by the time I had the pie with a big serve of peas for lunch, then the custard slice for afternoon tea, when my daughter came around with cream cake for the wifes birthday, I nearly lost the lot at the table,but like a trooper I had a piece.

was the pie tagged and released?

I'm going to go fishing with you one day so I can get a pie and a cream cake on the way home.🤣🤣
They won't let me buy  ( that rubbish ) up here, they won't.😂😂
Sounds like a good day Dino.

Up to Baroon for a change of scenery, love that pretty place. Picked up a few trolling, until I started to find a few schools. Then I would try some jiggs until they got sick of them and finish up with some on bait. Picked up some decent size ones early, but the last school I found were all legal but small.Managed 70 plus bass. Got bored with these so packed up and headed for the pie shop, for a pie and peas and a custard slice for when I got home.Wife arrived home late, been down the coast,daughter and her 2 daughters took wife to see the rocky horror show for her birthday. Then to top it off, daughter came around with a cream filled cake and we sang happy birthday and I made myself sick by having some cake. I will never learn.

I managed to score a few days off work mid-week, and being the first week of open bass season in Northen NSW it was a no brainer of what I was going to do.😀
That night I loaded the ute, tied on fresh leaders, then couldn't sleep in anticipation of the first bass flick of the season.
The alarm screamed at me at 4am, jumped out of bed then suddenly realized my throat felt like dry sandpaper and my nose felt like someone had squeezed a full tube of silicon up each nostril..............MAN FLU........NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.😥🤬😥🤬.
It takes a fair bit to stop me going fishing, tried to walk it off round the yard then headed back to bed thinking, "WOW, I must be sick".
Headed to the doctors who said I had a cold (really?? lol) and need to rest a few days, he also noted that I am now over 50 and should have a prostate exam😮......and asked me " Would you like one?"   
........................WOULD I like one?
......WOULD I like one? 
What sort of a question is that?
Every time I go to a doctor, now I am over 50, they always ask me that. Why? Do they enjoy the nervous squeamish look on people's faces????
Anyway,
Slept all day, dreaming of catching bass, woke on the couch at 3am the next morning and thought "stuff it, I'm going". What does a doctor know????
I mean he asked WOULD I like a prostate exam, lol.
Soooo glad the "need to fish" won the battle of "need to recover" as the fishing was well worth pushing myself to get up and moving.
Here is a vid of the morning and arvo surface session. The weather was extremely hot for the first week of spring, 32 degrees in the shade at 11am, don't know if that's why the bass were hitting the surface so well or if it was because a lot of the grass and trees along the bank had been burnt away meaning they weren't getting much food from the frogs and insects etc. that they would usually be getting?
I was using the Zman frogs.
How good is bass surface fishing.😍
 

Hard work today with only 33 bass and one yella. Yella made Rick smile with a 54cm grin. Hai had a bit of fun with his el cheepo combo loaded with 3 lb line,
Spotted a couple of deer. Sorry no photos. Cheers Ray

Had another great morning out at NPD yesterday.Bass were lure hungry, smashing trolled lures on the way down the dam and then taking jiggs when ever I passed over a small school. So then after they made my day, I fed them some shrimp to fatten them up for next time. I nearly got to 50cm a few times.Managed 68 bass all up.

anuda dirty tree tursday

Went for a walk sunday arvo for some exercise, managed a couple on spinnerbait,legs are still a bit like jelly. Redeemed myself out in the boat yesterday, managed 62 and quite a lot  on lures. I found 3 willing schools, that were hungry for lures to start with and then on bait afterwards. Schools were not big, but each school had some decent bass in them.

Yep thats the small one, goes down to about 15ft depending on what line you use.

Nice stuff Dino. Is that a RMG Poltergiest you're using?

Top haul again.
Well done.
