tyrone07 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 G'day Raiders, it's been way to long between drinks with Covid, work and welcoming a newborn in October the fishing has been few and far between. The wife had flown back to South Australia with the little dude for the Xmas/ New Year Break with me not travelling down until just before Xmas day I had the opportunity to finally get out for a flick at Lake St Clair with a mate. We were on the water by 5 and were at our first spot within 10 minutes of launching. I was throwing a cicada lure, whilst my mate was throwing a "whopper plopper" surface lures. After the first forty five minutes he had boated 5 bass, without my lure even getting a look in, I quickly asked my mate to borrow a "whopper plopper". The top water bite was slow but rewarding with us ending up with 14 bass between us. The wind came up and we made the call to call it quits just after midday. The majority of our bass came off the top and after some photos all released healthily. Absolute cracking part of the world and the bass on bream gear pull a treat. Here's to a better 2022 👌 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyFil Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Yes they are great fighters and there’s nothing like that surface strike! Looks like a few in the 40s , a good morning’s fishing I’d say. Fil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_Flatty Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Those are some stonker bass there! Having young kids certainly disrupts the fishing but it’s a small price to pay to acquire some great fishing buddies for the future. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
