LRF

Met up with the White brothers and a group of others down at the harbour last night and fished La Colette. What a fascinating night seeing the lads using extremely light rods and lures. A number of fish were taken in the darkness.

It will certainly a great method to develop for Bass fishing next year, I think I will pay Mr Fish a visit and see what gear I need. I will not need a reel but a lightweight rod some low breaking strain fluro and braid and some small jig heads and soft plastics

Xmas Time 2010

No fishing at present with the weather cold and snowy, however we shall see what is about in the new year on the banks and some of the offshore reefs. I would expect my next blog will be in the New Year so Happy Xmas and Happy New Year

Autumn Silver

Out at Seymour today with Derek on a 31ft force 4 S/W wind started in the usual place and the first drift produced 3 fish all around the 2lb mark. Moved off to the offshore oyster beds where we had a few more fish. Most were being caught on Jersey wonders although Derek had a few on Senko Worms


 We moved to the offshore reefs where more fish were caught before moving down to the point although bass were seen on the surface and birds diving we could not catch them well apart from one Derek had one at around 3.5lbs. A total of 20 fish were taken

Another great trip

Well to round the weekend off Derek and I made our way to Karame where I took a fish of around 3lbs on a mother worm Then onto  Shearers run and to the reef further up into the lagoon. This reef has been fishing well just as it uncovers Today we had 7 fish there up to around the 4lb mark. All of these on Jersey wonder lures.

Moving onto the point about 40 minutes before low and took about 4 fish on the first drift the wind was making it very uncomfortable to fish. We took 27 fish over a period of time at the point and further away towards the big eastern rock. Derek had a fish of around 5lbs.

fantastic Weekend

I have been out with Derek during the last few days 37ft tides wind westerley 3-4 Yesterday proved great when we took 25 fish a number being caught at the point with the birds cirulating there The fish turning up around the low tide mark. Biggest fish yesterday was around the 4lb mark

Most were caught on homemade lures, Well today saw rain this morning but the wind was not too bad this time we had 39 fish the biggest being caught by me at 6.5 lbs whilst Derek had one around 6lbs We had 9 on a reef near the lagoon just as they were uncovering before moving onto the point where we took a further 28 fish The big ones were caught at low tide or just after whilst the others were caught off the point

Halloween Bass

popped out today on the high tide small tide but choppy. The wind dropping whilst we were out

The first fish fell to me and was around 3lbs it was caught on a snot green Jersey wonder in  towards Green island gutter.

Derek was not catching on his black shad so swapped to a white Jersey wonder and immediately took a fish around 2.5lbs.This was where we cut through from Greve D'azette to Green Island

He then took another one on the inshore reef at Greve D'azette

A pleasant Afternoon

a late decision saw us out for the afternoon on a beautiful afternoon. 32 ft tide slight northerly wind I decided that we should try some of the deeper marks and headed off the Demi where Derek had his 10lb fish

Derek was using a senko worm and cast out to hook a fish just over 3lbs. You could see another larger fish following the hooked fish up The next fish hooked was the larger fish taken on a white Jersey Wonder.

the fish weighed in at just over 5lbs I took a fish of just over 4lbs caught at twin peaks caught on a lime green jersey wonder Derek had one further fish of just over 3lbs
