    A week at Awoonga

    10 of us went to Awoonga for the week after the M & G to try our luck at some of the good fish being caught at the moment. The weather held hot and Northerly for the whole time and the fishing didn't let us down as I caught my first meter+ fish for the week on the first night. (pic 1) I also met up with awoonga on the water and he gave me a couple of tips on where the big ones might be biting (thanx awoonga). Day two saw lots of smaller fish to an average of 70cm but as night fell I knew that I may be in trouble with a fish hitting hard and running for a long time but thankfully it went into deeper water and after about 25min I was able to boat the fish (pic 2) 114cm 22kg and the fatest Barra I have ever seen. This would be the norm for the week except for a couple of big fish drops and one that stuck 20kg weighed not measured as it seemed to be suffering and I wanted to get it back in the water as soon as possible (pic 3). When I get back to work I will hopefully expand on this thread.

    Jeremy (ausfish) will hopefully also add to this thread and post some of of his pics as well.

    Till I am back to work good fishing all

    Dehydrated,

    I prefer to hammer the points with shallow diving lures but others in the group just trolled in 10-12ft of water and had some good sucess as well
