    Kawana Weir

    Fished the weir late this morning in search of a bream or two. Arrived to find the flow was pumping hard, so I started throwing plastics into the flow and jigging them as they were carried. I had a 3" minnow nailed but had forgot to set the drag and the smallish trevor had me round the pylons before I could say boo. My f%^wit moment for the day.

    I had many more follows from the trevs but couldn't entice another strike except from the numerous moses perch hiding among the rocks. Eventually the heat got the better of me and I went home to sit under a fan. There was a distinct lack of herring around which was strange for the flow. A local seemed to think the rain had flushed them out of the channel and this was why the trevs were less aggressive than normal.

    i was getting heaps of fish there a few months ago, trevs, bream etc, but havn't found alot of good fish there lately. only a odd jew, flatty or giant herring in the last month. its a very inconsistant spot to fish.

    unlucky mate,the reason i think for the lack of herring is its heavyly hit by peoples using cast nett.i found in the last year the numbers caught have drop dramatically.

    I was supposed to that day but it was just so bloody hot, I'd have been buggered before I got it off the roof. I wish she could see the water more often.
