Suddenly we had a period of this pretty reasonable weather so I’ve been watching river water flow charts carefully everyday and keeping an eye on how rivers are looking in different parts of the state. As soon as I noticed one of my favourite bass river water level drop to about 1m I thought this is it, it could be the one and only chance to fish that river this year. I took a day off, packed my stuff and headed down south. It also happened to be that one my old friends live down that way as well, so it was great to catch up with him again, after a few years and have a few beers by the river. Managed to catch my PB bass just before it got dark, and then couple of smaller models. One of them to my surprise was throwing up large tan colour prawns in the net after I landed him giving away what they’re actually feeding on. So overall pretty good trip, was nice to feel that surface smash on a popper again.
