Freshwater open day

 Headed down to Harvey Dam. Stocks looked healthy from fisheries so was hopeful of bagging a few. Certainly produced the goods with 4 bows between 2-4lb. Home for lunch. 

Decided next day, same deal with the many other fish sighted day before. 8 bows between myself and a mate, all 3-4lb. Done in time for breakfast at pinjarra bakery. 

Usual dumb X Broods, but can't complain. Flesh is still pink, and condition hasn't deteriorated too bad yet. 

Left them alone Father's Day with potential crowds.  

Cranked out the smoker and cooked up a feed for family and friends. Delish!

Hoping to do a bit more this year over demersal ban.

 If you understand spawning patterns, there's an artificial that works every time. Can't give away all the secrets :)
