Teemburra Sunday morning

[staggy]

G-day everyone, Well after reading Darrens report on the electrofishing results I decided to go and have a crack at some of them barra. Well I found three of them but buggered if I could find the other 90. Had a good time with surface poppers along some deep banks with 6 strikes but no fish to the boat. Brian had a huge strike with his popper clearing the water and the noise from the boof was a real hart starter. I changed to soft plastics and tried to keep the lure in close to the structure longer to try and intice a strike. Got snagged up heaps of times but decideed to keep trying as I knew the fish were there. Three strikes for three barra was the end result.
Brian did not have the patience for plastics this morning and opted to sleep on the floor of the tinny while I experimented with the Berkley Power Baits. Also found some big fish on the sounder out deep from drowned timber in 2 or 3 mtrs of water and was wondering if they would move out of the deeper water to the shallows after dark. So just incase I marked all the spots on the hand held GPS.

That's a good effort Staggy. You'd recon you might crack a smile occasionally with fishing like that.

Cheers,

G-day Neil and Fitzy. Yes it was a top morning to be on the dam with little or no wind to blow the tinny around. I didnt want to smile to much Fitzy as a couple of other Ausfish members were up last weekend and I told them the dam was FULLaFISH if you knew where to look. So I took them to spot X and told them all my other secret spots trying to prove my stories were true. But alas I was the only bloke to nail a couple of fish that mornin. They even asked me what type of lures I use and being a good sport i told them. Then on the morning we met at the dam whats the first thing i do, I put on a lure that has lived in the bottom of my tackle box along with all the crap collected I hate or have no faith in and pull 2 barra out of the timber in front of them. I wonder if they think I fed them false info. A smile would just seem to be pushing the friendship a little too far dont ya think.

Lookin forward to catching up with you again Neil when ya get back to OZTRALIA.

G-day Neil, Mate I'd love nothing more then to post more photos but work keeps me off the dams and all I can do at the moment is dream about them barra like you. I only worked 6 hours today as it was my day off. Actualy Im on night shift still, finished boring on the dozer around 6-30 and drove home. Im so lucky i can go out again tomorrow night and fix more round things. Seems the mines are full of not so round things they want made round again, so I keep going round and round fixing them. What a life. Someone has to do it.

Catch ya later
