Rah Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 G'day Raiders, Got down the south coast on the weekend and got out on the kayak every morning to target Bass. First morning was very misty. Being fairly new to bass fishing getting one or 2 is always good. first cast and bam.... When does that ever happen? iv got to thank Mattfinn for the lure suggestions. Almost all fish were caught on the Taylor made cicada Couple more cast and it was on again. Only small fish but I was cheering. Not much happened for a while, sun was starting to get up there and thought I might have left my start a bit late and then I was on again. After that it was time to put the sunnies on and there was no more fishy action on the surface. Was time to head back for fresh eggs. The next morning was very quiet on the water. Not much happening at all then all of a sudden managed to land these 2 from the same snag. Once again, sunnies on, no more surface fish but quite a few follows from water dragons. Had to shoo them away before the climbed aboard the yak. Last morning no takes at all on the cicada. maybe the cows were spooking them. changed to a small spinner bait, not really thinking I would catch anything and first cast with the new lure and it was engulfed by a 10cm bass. Caught a few more small one with the kids, they love getting out on the water in the kayaks. All in all a great weekend with about 8 fish landed. not too bad for a 1k stretch of creek.

Scratchie Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Great work Tara! There really is something special about targeting bass from a yak. They are the "barra of NSW". Sounds like you had a great time with the kids and the fish are a bonus! Well done Cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rah Posted March 10, 2016 Author Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) Thanks Fellas. They are so much fun to catch. Counting down the days till easter so i can get back out there and drag the yak over the rocks to the next section of the creek. I wonder how close to the Shoalhaven river they will get before there is too much salt? These were also my first HB lure fish landed too.
