Geoff Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 (edited) Made our annual trip south to my cousins place at Brogo ( 16km north of Bega ) last week. For fishing , Brogo is approx 30 -40min drive to either Bermagui or Tathra , a further 10 min onto Eden or 15min to Brogo dam. Friday , 6th. Weather a bit sad so decided on Eden as Twofold Bay is reasonably protected.. Picked up a few livies around the trawler mornings so headed across the bay to the wood chip mill wharf. Heaps of yakka but very reluctant to take a bait. Moved around the bay for a mixed bag of reef fish & a few Flatties Saturday afternoon, land based at Brogo dam for one keeper Bass Sunday afternoon , Cuttagee Beach . Pick up a 2.5kg Salmon & 2 Tailor Monday. Back to Brogo Dam with the boat . Scenery was great but no fish. See below post for pic's Tuesday There is always 1 day in a week that is perfect & Tuesday was the day. Calm water & fish every where & the action was non stop. This is what we kept Wednesday Bega River , it flows into the ocean at the northern end of Tathra beach. Not much action but young Simon was very excited when he caught this small Trevor Thursday , Back to Cuttagee beach. Very slow , only 1 small throw back Salmon Friday Weather forecast , 1 - 1.5mt swell & 5/10 knots from the N/E. Arrived at the headland over looking the Tathra ramp to be greeted by 2 - 3.5mt swell & a 15/20 knot southerly. So much for an accurate forecast. With the ocean looking very unpleasant we decided to head back to the house. Overall , a great week & plans under way for a return next Easter Geoff Here are some pic's of the scenery taken on Brogo Dam when we were Bass fishing Geoff Edited April 15, 2007 by Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 Brogo Dam ,is that dam fishable from a powered boat ??? Cheers Stewy Stewy Yes , provided there is sufficient to cover the boat ramp. On this occusion the dam was at 100%. Last year the water was very low with several meters of sand between the end of the ramp & the water. Would have been OK for launching / retreiving little tinnies but a struggle for anything larger. Main problem , the sand is very soft also , there is a drop off from the end of the ramp to the sand If your ever planning to head down that way let me know & will be able to advise the latest situation Regards Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
