now i know targeting catties is not the most glamourous...but last summer a mate and i went to the upper brissie river near wivenhoe and had a ball pullin in these slimy buggers......we lost several lures to bigger cats.....it was a good way to spend the morning.....
As you say not the most glamorous of fish but good fun to catch although after seeing the effects their spines can have I don't tend to get too close to the things unless they are dead.
yeah the spines......when i was younger i was swinging one around on the end of my line and had a pectoral spine snap off in my thigh...missed the family jewels buy millimetres.......tunnel vision , extreme pain and a trip to the hospital......lets say i treat them with a bit more respect now
Always fun to catch something. At least you didn't drive all the way to Awoonga to only catch catties - something that has happened to me unfortunately.
True that Troy.
I am under the impression that the eel tail catties are better eating than the forkies.
But i have only had forky and it was fine.
There seems to be a serious decline on eel tail numbers so i prefer to release.
my pop got this one up at lake monduran last weekend. must be feedin them steriods or something he went like a train. good fun though when the weather is lousy and barra arent biting.
