Left at 5am, gear in the car and hit the road for my first Aussie Bass attempt. By 6 I'm by the water at the chosen spot on the beautiful Nepean river, regardless of the calm of the moment the surface is "boiling" with activity... this will be fun I thought! ?
A couple of hours later I had this stupid grin stuck on my face... and it still won't go off.
Landed 3 bass and had a few more hits on topwaters.
Tried the jitterbug, the pop-r, the buzzjet, the tinny torpedo and the gunfish at the surface and a couple of cranks and jerks.
All strikes were on the tinny torpedo and the pop-r.
This beauty (in its 30s) was the best fish of the session and just smashed a tinny torpedo!
Thank you for being so nice, hope We see each other again!
Still have to spend many more hours after them until I feel I know how to fish them but they've got me hooked for good!!
Cheers,
