Robbo 81 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) went down the wier today with miller. He though it was quite funny that he landed 3 or 4 mullet and I couldn't get any. I managed 1 a little later. miller had to go as he was not supposed to be out as his mrs banned him from fishing for a month I hung round for another 2 hours and landed 5 good sized mullet. all packed up and ready to leave, one of the blokes next to me was on, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ! BIG TIME! Then I realized this guy was using lures. This was a bass making all the noise. a few moments later he pulled in a monster bass at 54cm And was ecstatic! as he should be. he said his name was robbo and the other bloke was robertson so if your out there guys, well done again. I've got photos on my phone and will be posting them up once I can get them out of my phone. the young bloke on the bottom caught it Edited March 11, 2008 by Robbo 81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boban Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 That's a monster bass. I think it would be the Nepean River at Penrith he is talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottyman Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 That's a sensational Bass and if it did indeed come out of the Nepean that's a special and rare catch for that area. Anything around the 40cm mark is considered a good fish down there so that's a once in a blue moon fish. I was down there today at dawn with Andy and hooked one bass in an eddy near the bank down stream just past the weir where the water still runs pretty quick. It was a good fish and managed to get into the faster current and the hook pulled. I've never seen a Bass that big come out of the nepean in the years I've been fishing for Bass down there. It's great to know they are down there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
