    A Borumba Bashing

    Quick report stretched for time

    Fished last fri-sun
    Water like thick chocolate bloody filthy!
    Toga everywhere spotted over 50-100 free-swimming and sunning ... all in pairs spawning, as we had expected from recent help / info

    Spawning mode = thinking about bonking and not food! Hopefully soon they'll finish their business, smoke a relaxing cigarette and start acting sexy and eating again!
    Only 2 toga and one dropped for 2 days fishing. Even fly fishos struggled. Plenty of small bass around to keep us from slitting our wrists.

    Cast everything down to finesse bream gear / frogs etc at 'em trying not to spook them to no avail - they'd freak and bust-up with a massive boil at the slightest bit of disturbance including the 4lb braid going over their heads through the air!! Dam those things have good eyesight!

    Will post photo soon if get chance
    Think it will take a long time for that water to improve!

    Good luck to anyone fishing it hopefully do better than us!

    Couple of pics

    Trying to protect the slime on these beautiful fish by using wet cloth gloves but they don't exactly make for great additions in photos!
