Family Fishing

[Jim_Tait]

Went looking for a bass in the backyard creek this arvo (involved taking the whole family) - found that the bass havn't got up the creek yet - need another big flow to get them past a gorge waterfall! - but ran into a pretty eastern cod - nichnamed 'triple o' because of his body markings (see below these provide unique identifyers as good as tags if you keep photographic records) I last caught him in this neck of the creek in January.

Hey. I'm originally from Lismore. My old man used to have the Civic Hotel.

Up Murwillumbah these days, fishing the Tweed River, & occasionally Clarrie Hall Dam. Not a bad part of the world. [smiley=2thumbsup.gif]
