Monduran - Again

[BR65]

A couple of pics from Thursday arvo and Fridays fishing at Mondy, best fish went 105, there was a 100 on the button, a 92 , a couple of mid 80's and a little rat about 60 mixed in as well, plus the usual bust ups and thrown hooks from fishin in the sticks.
Thanks Nathan (Tropical Trout) for the heads up when we met on the water, give us a yell when youre heading up next, we might be able to have a fish.
High light of the trip was watching around 4 foot of beautiful red belly black snake glideing across the the channel up in H arm, low point was running into some blokes a long way up the back who had hooked their first fish of the trip, only to have the rear treble embed into old mates hand between thumb and first finger, OUCH!, long run back to the docs. Best we could offer was a couple of panadol and a bundy and coke.

cheers

G'day Brian good trip mate how many people were there gee whiz the main basin was a shipping channel. Its a magic spot for sure can't wait to get up there again, the place is simply magic and the fishing is awsome. We had a ripper so the secret saving fund will need a boost for a January trip. It was great to meet you and dave and whitto, crabman, bassmaster1, and many great people it really topped off the trip.

Cheers Nathan

hi nathan thanks for the tip of h arm we did good up there 3 hooked 2 landed
onsaturday at h first one went 93cm and second 88 cm my mate caught his first ever barra at 88 he was stoked and i also got one in the timbers back near b arm in the afternoon at 90 cm but this morning i got on to a big bugger in h and he snagged me and in the process of trying to get him out my live fibre went bang about half up the rod not sure what happened but as went it broke i didnt have much pressure on it. i think i just gave way and i also lost the fish and my fav lure i also hooked another but he spat the lure at me as well but still and awsome weekend cant wait to get back up there again and try and catch another one oh yeah also caught 9 catfish and like harry watson say i hate catfish.

Hey Nath,
Good to hear your trip got better and great to see the little one with such a big fish give her a pat on the back for me. I was talking to you at the ramp on Thursday night, went back up for a few hours on Sunday night an only nailed a 104cm on the back of what used to be the island at the northern end of Bird Bay. But a lot of Barra working in the shallows around those 2 little grassy islands there.

Cheers Foxie
