Skinny water fires up

 Pat Brennan and Andy McGovern sample the Basin snag dwelling bream.

Successful jewie tag surgery and release.

Local Rod Chick's cracking 42cm surface lure munching bream. He dropped another one the same size judging by the surface boil it left!

Will "The Skunk" McPhail out fished his dad and scored this great 78cm big girl which was released after a few photo's.


The last week has been amazing to say the least. Aside from the incredible fishing I've met some great people and had a great time in the skinny water. This week I've seen three jewies, 2 crocs, of which we only got one in the boat (next time Bill), and a 42cm bream that left a footprint on the surface strike the size of a soccer ball! The jewie pics show part of the surgical procedure being done to implant an acoustic tag into the fish, and then the successful release as part of the new acoustic tagging program being undertaken in the Clyde River. I'm having a week off from the 15-19 before the xmas rush starts. I hope I can put you in the picture as well. Enjoy.
