On the water for about 5 hours and my Bass virginity remains unsullied damn [I'd make a good bass moll too] :lol:
Certainly wasn't time wasted though, off Pelican Point there was a school and it is now the home of a Tilson Bass HB, but no touches, entering Jasons Joint there were schools here and there along the 5-6m rocky shore [shallower and deeper was empty], rolled a Betta Spin with 3" Pumpkinseed Shad for no result [ they are great to unsnag from reefing up], also worked a couple of Poltergeists in this arm
At one stage a bass or sara hit big time on the surface reeds at edge and was great to see :shock: threw a lure for a while in the area with no result; going to take another rod from now on rigged for the surface for those opportunities.
At the end of Jasons there is a lot of cover and looks like it may be a top arvo spot.
Only one other canoe on the western arm and none else within cooee, can't beat this mid-week fishing...if only it would produce.
Although against the grain, I think some bait may go along as well next outing on the dam; paddlings great but so is fish feed. :wink:
