G-day everyone. Spent a morning on Monduran with Brett from Stillwater charters. The fishing was slow and Brett did warn me before we travelled down but a day on the water is worth any drive I reckon. Monduran is like any dam, sometimes the bite is hot ,some times its cold. You can never be sure what it will be like when you plan a trip several months in advance.
We didnt troll as Im not to keen on trolling so we worked some of Bretts favorite spots working our lures in the shallow water around the edges. My daughter Kate was with us and she managed a nice 60cm barra for her efforts. As usual some catties came out to play. I dont mind catfish as they put up a good fight and they fill in the gaps between Barra . I taught he kids to fish on catties in Awoonga when we lived in Gladstone so they dont treat them as a pest either. A fish on a lure is still a fish.
Brett is one cool dude and he is worth the money for the charter just for the humer and conversation through the morning. He was also full of hints and tips concerning the barra fishing and he answered any question I fired at him about fishing impoundments. I can highly recomend this handsome young bloke to anyone wanting a fun time fishing Monduran.
