[BR65]

yeah, cranky buggers Simon, I nearly lost a finger tip when the pup barked at me and threw out his jaws.
How did you go with the flake, I know a good bully spot, are they worth knockin on the head and slipping into the esky?

yeah i think so there was a few where i was fishing due to howmany i was biten off the love the spot i fish and i ate the one i got last year and he was nice but the key is bleeding them in a ice slurry and freezing the flesh and then thoring out and yeah nice they are thats the smaller ones i dont know about the bigger models but i reckon the 70 cm size seem good damm fight hard and are reall happy when ya get them in the boat trust me i climb on the esky quick when the bugger was kicking round the floor near y feet

[Tropicaltrout]

On a live mullet Brian good to hear your into them too mate, I tell ya what whitto I would prefer the red in the canoe to those biting bullies Simon was catching, but I did have the toes tucked neatly away let me tell ya, I also got a Muddy and almost dropped the bugger in the canoe then I would have bailed!!!!!

Hey guys back to the cricket, if i come down what line class are you guys running and what is the average size bass n toga. At cania i got a few toga round 75 on the 8wt and we got a few bass over 50, but lost a fair few spinnerbaits in the lantana on 12 i think lb braid

[darylive]

Chew,

I would be pleased to pull a 50 Bass out of Borumba .
That would be a big fish here. 40+ is good.

As always the problem is the sticks if you are in em. I have lost a rig to a good toga there when she wound up on a stump and snapped before I could get around.

If you have a 12 braid outfit that sounds fine to me

[chewy01]

Thanks daryl,
andy and i got 19 in a couple hours earlier in the week up here on surface lures so ill probably bechucking them and fly.

[darylive]

19 in a couple of hours.

I can't remember last time they were really on the chew here but hopefully the improved water levels and climate change have settled and they are biting again. It has been and is bloody hot here, I think we are in for some stonker storms this season.

If it wasn't for the crowds I would be there now.
