Eppalock session Reddies everywhere with video

Post by thebigal_au » Wed Dec 27, 2017 7:32 am

Hi everyone

I went on a fishing session at Lake Eppalock a couple of days ago. The conditions were calm and balmy and we hit the water around 4,00. We were on a very small tinny and we launched from Ramp 2. The session was crazy and we lost count of how many Redfin that was caught. We were mainly fishing in depths around 7 meters and was simply bouncing or slow rolling a range of soft plastics and vibes with my Savage Gear 2-4 kilo spin rod. Plastics used included Zman grubz, ProGrubz, Fat T-Tails, Nemises with bright colours working well. We didn't manage to hook up to any yellas or cod but will venture out there again soon to try.

A video of this fishing session can be seen here

A good session, well done, cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them

Thanks a lot. Most of them were between 25cm and 30cm which is very typical of Eppalock. There were quite a few between 30cm and 35cm and the odd couple just under 40cm. Have a look at this video which shows the sizes of the catches on the day https://youtu.be/Iu9RlGmSdOc
