nicktoozoff Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Hi All, Just back in from another quick 4hr session on my favorite peice of bass water. After the high of lasts weeks PB bass 505mm (pics and trip report to come), I was keen to get back a couple on the bass that have cost me some heavy hardware losses in the last couple of weeks ! This time I took the trusty 6wt fly rod out for shits and giggles, flys are cheaper to loose that SB's! I managed to net 5 fish to 43cm with 2 being fly caught and the rest on SB's. I also managed to set a new PB on fly of 42cm , which really put a bend in the 6wt! The total was 42cm, 43cm and 3 below 20cm (not measured)! Anyway here are the pics, enjoy. I should sleep well tonight, I've managed about 16k's of kayak fishing in 3 days! Cheers Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgey Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 About bloody time you posted a report ... but where's the photo of the big bass??? Congrats on yet another successful sojourn up the river mate. Good to see you've stopped throwing $20 hard bodies at cranky fish Will catch up with you in the next couple of days Cheers Skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicktoozoff Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 Skip, As soon as my new data lead for the camera turns up I will post pics of the 50+. Pics are trapped on the camera's internal memory at present. Where are your bass pics from monday? Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmak Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Great pics. That's a lot of rowing man. Flyfishing from a kayak too - is it more difficult being lower down? Look forward to pics and report of your chunky bass to come ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arpie Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 Woohoo! Another top session - even better,being on FLY!! Would that be a PB on fly? I must give that a go!! Now, excuse my ignorance, but what is an SB? I know what HBs are & SPs ...... can't think of an SB!!? Well done - if you are ever up Forster way, (with or without your yak, as I have a spare Perception Minnow you can use ..... looks like you might have one too!) send me a PM! I have some fun water to play in up here too, for fresh & salt. Cheerio Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arpie Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Thanks for that, Nick! Duh, should have guessed that one!! I have quite a few SBs but keep forgetting to use them when bassing! next time I will tho!! I actually took them out with me the last time I bassed & still didn't use one!! Having too much fun on SPs!! Cheerio Roberta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
