Bass and several Toga,s Any info would be great All Fish Catch and Release..

Thanks Whitto, Best Toga so far was 90cm. .it was caught on popper in Cania Dam. Hooked large 90 plus Toga in Borumba on surface fly but it got off alongside boat .which was good as I had the thrill of the fight and didn,t have to hurt it to let it go. any clues on how to put an image here??

Hey TT, have u heard of a lure called the "Thong Thing" killer little popper made out of thong rubber, we have had heaps of sucess on the bass with them, the guy who makes them lives in our area (Coffs) but not sure how far he distibutes them. Cheers, Pete.

Keep doing what your doing, you don't need any help you have proved that......To put an image on this forum....Go to the main chat page and scan down till u come to Chat page and Internet help section open that up and u will find a section on installing an image in plain simple language....it really is very simple ....good luck and keep braining them at Borumba........Whitto

Ah, small world, no havn't tried them on flatties to be honest I havn't seen them for a while, r u still making them? Used to get them off Brett at the jetty shop. Always keen for a fish if u r looking for company and my boat is ALWAYS fuelled up. Cheers, Pete.
