Went for a run to Awoonga this week and fished Monday arvo, tuesday and wednesday. with mate Trev... fellow Ausfisher "Awoonga"
Our expectations were fairly high due to all the hype with all the big girls (barra) being caught there in the last few weeks. All was not that bad as we boated 3-7 fish per day biggest being approx 103cm. It sounds good, but it was hard work all round. Decided to go to Monduran dam on Thursday and same thing, they had been going off big time the last few days, with lots of lures lost to big fish. Looked good as the water temp was high but nobody told the Barra!!! Ended up hanging around and waited for an afternoon bite and we were rewarded with 3 mid size Barra and a couple lost. Anyway thats fishing... still had a good time :). Will be back there again next week for another go.


Cheers Les.

Les,
I'm glad to see you eventually scored something. ;) As you know we struggled for a couple of small ones ourselves, did Trev catch anything or did he get scared of the dark and hide on the floor. ;D
I'll let you know when we start nailing them again.

Les I know what you mean , I saw the headlights he had strapped to his hat to fish through the day 8-) they were bigger than the spotties on my 4by ;D
[smiley=idea.gif]I'll tie a string line behind me for him next time so he wont lose me in the timbers.
