troutboy Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Gday all, heading to bents basin for a bbq on saturday to catch up with some mates I havent seen for a good while and just wondering if its worth taking a light spin stick and some bass lures. Have any raiders had any success there at all. Any recommendations on successful lures and tactics would be much appreciated. cheers troutboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day's Fishin Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hi troutboy, there are bass there & sometime in good numbers. They seem to like to take the lure from the top of the water & not divers. Last time we tryed it there was a fair bit of weed which resulted in a lot of catch & release before you had a chance to land the fish.

troutboy Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 Thanks for the reply Jeff, think I might chuck the spin gear in the car and take some small topwater lures and give it a shot. cheers mate troutboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysenior Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Went up river there yesterday and watched this monstor of about 60cm cruising the surface of one of the rockpools , would not touch my lure , i think it may have been a big carp but the water was abit murky so couldn't tell cheers snr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
