hes told me how he got that bloody thing... biggest fluke ever! so i his ability to cast.

Just quietly we should set up a day and go fishing somewhere. might even have to be mondy. going to awoonga 26 of nov, fingers crossed. just put my first order of lures in at motackle... $150 bucks worth.

after getting up this morning struggling to walk after the hardest game of touch ive ever played last night. i was greeted with thoughts of another day in paradise, only for it to be lost to a day at work instead... again. i havent gone fishing in over a month where i havent gotten wet. hopefully saturday arvo at borumba will bring some luck. i hear the togas are on the move  :D

Good luck at Imbil over the weekend, I have also heard the Bass have moved out of the main basin and schooling up still at the entrances of the arms.

Work has been extremely up and down this year which has restricted me from venturing too far from home on a regular basis but I'm hoping to get away soon in the up and coming months. Keep in touch with your plans.

Cheers Dave

Yeh mate will do. i Went to borumba saturday afternoon, went right up the back as far as i have ever been. Got a toga, yella and a nice bass. Put on one of the best fights any bass has before it. pulled loads of drag and it wasnt even that big. maybe 40 or so.

Also while at borumba, i heard down the wire that they are looking at possibly putting a gate on the dam, and having a ranger at the dam permanently. Of cause thats not for certain but that would suck. they've done so much stuff there lately. you cant even park above the ramp anymore.

Yeh mate ill keep in touch for sure, going to awoonga on the 26th nov with a mate and maybe the coopers. but ill definitely keep in touch about other things that come up, and fishing reports

All me baby :)
Also jackson it wasnt a fluke, it was highly skilled spot picking of a lone schooled fish. Clearly alot of angling skill was needed to hook, fight and boat the beast.
