Following good rain about ten days ago thought we would see how the increase in fresh and decrease in temp would affect the bass. First session started at 4.45am, water temp 25.2deg. No fish for four hours. Went home hoping this might prove something :-[
Four days later - 4.30am start, water temp 26.5 - 19 bass before 7.30am all on surface walkers.
Two days later 4.45am start, water temp 27.1 - 18 bass by 7.00am - all on surface walkers. ALL were released after some customary proof shots. The size has dropped a little in this particular stretch of water - all fish between 30 - 39cm. All very skinny at the moment so are feeding well to no doubt put on the weight for the coming winter spawn.
Couple of snaps of the walkers and bass.
