Corroboree Arvo's
Posted: Mon May 31, 2010 8:41 pm
Hit Corrob the last 2 Sun arvo's with Melv, on the water aroud 3pm until dark.The first run we got fairly well reamed by the fish only boating 2 rats out of a continuous stream of hits, only using the light stuff and weedless rubbers we got well and truly pasted by the fish (mainly me) with some nice barra & toga hooked and lost but still a top arvo. Nothing like seeing a bow wave come surging out from the lillies at ya lure Met Richieboy at the ramp pulling out, nice to meet & speek to other like minded FFFer's
Well looking for some redemption we headed of again yesterday, straight to the same spot, a couple of casts and the first baz was on the deck only @52 but I was on the board and raised our hopes. Melv was next up with a nice toga and then it went quiet for a while with only the odd hit and then the viral droppsies reared they're ugly head.
Things started to pick up a bit with a few fish boofing around (mainly way back in the lillies/grass) but at least they were active.
Pelted my lure in tight along the tree line and was rewarded with a good wack and and better fish giving me some grief but after a fiesty fight a nice 70cm swampy graced the deck, just snuck in for the comp.
Not long after I was on again with a good bow wave trailing the lure through the weeds and a solid hit, and my PB toga was on the deck not long after
Things once again went quiet just before dark, with only one more rat boated and a few of those long distance release jobs
Once again a top arvo with good mates and a few and plenty of wildlife getting about.
All the fish were caught on weedless rubbers in thru the lilies & weedbanks.
As for the road, I have never seen it so good 80km all the way, smooth as a babies proverbial.
