On the water about 8pm & started to troll around to find the fish, picked up a 54cm baz along the lilys early but was pretty quiet till about midnight.
We found an area where the bait was splashing around on the surface a bit & it wasn't long till my rod was a tuggin. These fish were hitting hard, so hard they were getting about 2 meters of air as they came up hitting the shallow running classics
After a hard fight a fat 76cm baz graced the deck, a good start for November. Next pass it was jamsey's turn with a fish that hit like a steam train train peeling a good 20 meter of line of in no time, the fsh didn't want to give up but after a long fight an 81cm baz was in the net, our biggest for the night.
A few more passes in the same spot & I had a ripping hit only to have it spit the lure about 2 meters above the water after a huge jump. While this was going on Jamsey was reeling in his lure to clear the water for my fish when he was smashed hard. This thing was on steroids!!!! It peel a heap of line off while jumping horizontal to the water & launching itself a good couple of meters. After 30 second or so it was still going mad then the line went slack, I'm not sure if the leader not gave or it found the rocks on the drop off but it was gone
A few more passes went by & jamsey was on again & after another solid fight he landed a healthy 75cm barra. i picked up 1 more small rat after that but it was getting late or should I say early So we deceided to pull the pin.
Not a bad night on the water, no big impoundment slappers that I was hopping for but there is allways next time.
Cheers bullet
you've down a great job landing barra in the dam, dam it wish i was there!
