Recent land based trip

Hi Marnie,

Not fished for GT at night but predatory freshwater fish will take a surface bait in the dark (muskie fishermen in north America do this all the time). From a fish's perspective there is the noise of the splash and, from beneath the surface, a lure will be outlined against the sky. I know of muskie fishermen who paint all their lures solid black - better outline.

Cheers

Colin

Hey mate well done on your first few GT's and i bet many more to come...It gets very addictive and money involved!!

Hi Dave,
You've done well from the oysters mate. I hate that spot - its very frustrating and I've lost a bit of blood there too.

Anyway, welcome to the addiction 

Hey kasey yeah i class myself as pretty fortunate to land fish of that size from oysters. It could be quite a nasty place if things didnt go the anglers way! It would only take a good bust up and end up on your ass and the sharp oyster shells would make short work of your behind!! Are you a local in the area?? Ill be back on boxing day to give it another crack
