Wisemans And Upstream?

[Berleyguts]

Hi,

I'm just curious if anybody has been fishing the upper Hawkesbury lately?

I may finally be able to fit a brief session in this weekend and due to time constraints may concentrate on upstream of Del Rio (I normally fish downstream past the ferries to the wind sock). In the time frame I will have, I don't imagine I could get any further up than, say, the "moons" above Leets Vale, although I would like to try the mouth of the Colo if I could manage (gotta get a faster boat!).

Any recent news for this stretch?

I haven't seen any news from Tide'n'Knots for a while. Are you still fishing, Pete?

Cheers,

Baz

Hi Baz, I was talking to a couple of bass fishers at colo ramp yesterday and they told me that they caught 2 small bass for a 3hr trip. They said their was next to nothing rising as their wasn't any insects around to get the bass excited. I haven't heard of any fish coming in from dads corner area or the South Sydney Resort straight. Their was a couple of prawn trawlers working the straight but they only did a couple of runs so I would say the prawns haven't made an appearance yet. All in all pretty quiet up this way, you would properly be better off fishing Laughtondale area.

Regards Jeff

fished the mouth of the colo down to the skeletons the other day for 8 bass and 6 ep's no great size to them around the 300 mark all caught on bladz in deep water to early for surface yet for this time of year its lookn good for a bumpa bass season

Thanks guys. I went for a quick run from our van at Carinya up to the Colo on Saturday afternoon, mainly so the could get some experience and log some time with the boat so she can get her licence. We flicked a few lures around but didn't get any hits, although we did see and hear some surface strikes near snags we weren't fishing at the time! It sure is pretty up there. I was talking to a guy at the park this afternoon before I left and he said about 2 weeks ago (out of season) there was a heap of EPs schooling up "just over there", so I really should put a bit of time in on the bass & EPs.

How windy was it?!

Cheers,

Baz
