GregL Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 G'day Pete Nice silvery looking fish there mate! They look heaps nicer than the dark river fish.

jewgaffer Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Well done on your blackfish Peter If there are jew inside the lake, it might be worthwhile taking a couple of jew rods down near the mouth around nine o'clock on Sunday night ay. I don't think you'll be able to hit and run this time. The way the jew have been up there lately, you might find you'll be too busy for that Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Nice looking blackies, Peter. Well done. I was about to go out in the yak fishing for them yesterday & the thunder & lightening started, then bucketted with rain, so I went home instead! Will try again this morning instead! About to head out & get some weed & cabbage now! Cheerio Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roosterman Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 (edited) well done peter.. they look real fit buggers.. did you use float or just fish light in the washes..... by the way tricks DO NOT buy them at shops for eating as they need bleeding and cleaning asap otherwise they taste crap..... treated correctly they are one of my fav fish .... cheers... steve...

luderick59 Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 hi throw me a fish all fish taken on weed i tend to put as much on as possible on a no8 hook so fish can see the bait easier similar to a saltwater fly in the white water all fish caught from rocks but landed on beach [usually fishing knee deep with waves] only place to land them peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
