nbdshroom Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) It's been a relatively slower month with the onset of significant rain which is affecting a lot of spots that I frequent. Had some donut sessions which isn't too good but part and parcel of fishing. Besides getting my butt kicked on several occasions fishing with other raiders, it's been good in the way that it has allowed me to recognise some deficiencies in my approach and techniques and hopefully I can improve on them and these slow sessions can become a thing of the past. Best session was in the Georges at my local during the first bit of rain where I nailed 6 bream (5 of which within a whisker of 30cm) and a respectable flathead in the 70s all in the space of an hr and a half. It was pleasing to back up the effort of the twin crocs I got on the boat last month with a good one from the land. The flatty was hungry and waiting for the baitfish to flush past during a warm afternoon only to be deceived by my Zman wafting through. After a 5 minute tussle, I was able to coax the fish into the flats and jump down off the boardwalk to reach it. As I jumped down onto the mud, I ended up with my right leg plunging through about 30cm into the mud (yuck!) ...the things we do for fish. To wrap up, fish of the day (figuratively speaking of course) was this unidentified monster. Almost did me around the pylons did she.
