We took our first trip out to Maroon Dam, but couldn't find where to fish from. Got a helpful tip from the fella minding a caravan park, who told us about this spot 2km or so down the road. Lotsa weeds and trees in the water, and I caught our first legal size bass! It's the first time we caught cookable fish, so these guys were taken home and baked in foil with tomato and herbs! Very satisfying.
My partner caught a smaller (~15-20cm) bass and three similar sized golden perch. We even used the prawns we trapped last night at Cribb Park.

It was a nice white fish, very mild, no muddy or strong taste. We just scaled and cleaned them, put some tomato slices, Italian herb mix and a drizzle of lemon juice, wrapped loosely in foil and baked for about 25 mins, until the flesh was opaque and flaked. Might try to fillet one next time. Lots of bones, but they are big and easy to pick around.
