Another 4 Bass yesterday evening

[Sebb]

Yep that's kinda why I said wild bass. Aka not in a reservoir or pond etc.
I heard the ones in Melton were put there on purpose. Aka illegal stocking.
Its been almost a year since I touched the bream gear, might have to dust it off sooner rather than later.

Come down to werribee mate, I'll put you on to some Bass. i use a 1-3kg UL rod with a 1000 size reel and 6lb all round, they fight like maniacs

Last three trips I went there I got nothing but mozzie bites
Have you tried spinner baits slow rolling down deep?
I might give that a try now that the weather is cooler.

Yeah, it's not as easy as it looks. There have been a few yellowbelly caught throughout the system as well

If you can plan your fishing around productive windows Seb. Things like high barometric pressure & low light conditions certainly help. Also get your cast in tight to snags.

Yeah I've caught them there before, and low lights definitely the better time.
It's just lately it's like:
Seniorfisho goes fishing 6 days and catch fish consecutively, then I go on the 7th for a donut. Lol.
And I live 15 mins from there. Lol.

In fairness to you, you know I have explored the river for years now and have found probably the best spots on the river. I only fish 3 or 4 times a week and usually for an hour or so, sometimes during the day and sometimes of an evening. you sort of get to know the best spots to cast and what the fish are taking. And as you know sebb, there is a network of 4 of us who between us fish the river consistently and pass on info to each other. it's better than joining Fishingmad, lol

If you caught them at Melton there's no record of bass bring stocked

Those are wild bass..

I catch them in the Werribee river. It was accidently stocked with 40,000 Bass 7 years ago. They put in 90,000 EP's but 40,000 were bass, lol

Yep that's kinda why I said wild bass. Aka not in a reservoir or pond etc.
I heard the ones in Melton were put there on purpose. Aka illegal stocking.
Its been almost a year since I touched the bream gear, might have to dust it off sooner rather than later.

I might have to take you up on that offer. Never fished down that way before, be good to have a catch up and wet a line.
Cheers

You gotta guide me which hole should I put my stick to.
Talking about stick bait lure and water hole of course.
