It has been months and months since I've fished Burley Griffin, so it was great to hit the lake again this morning. The massive was out in force with Paffoh, Patwah, Fishwhisperer, Hammo and Butters in attendance. Cold and wet conditions greeted us at the lake, so we immediately fortified ouselves with cream cake and a breakfast ale. Conditions were miserable at times, but there were some great redfin on offer with most fish nudging 30cm and in fat condition.
Working the weed beds around Spinnaker Island with plastics we found a school of willing fish that stayed in the area for a while. Heading over towards Black Mountain Peninsula we couldn’t find any takers, and with the steady rain and numb fingers it wasn’t real happy fishing. The weather got the better of most of us in the end, Hammo and Butters stayed out, I hope you were rewarded fellas. As we meandered back towards the launch site. Patwah and I banged out a few more casts near Spinnaker on the way past and landed a couple of really nice reddies to finish the trip, best was a very fat 42cm on a red and orange Grass Minnow L.
