Weekend Hunt/Marron

Went out on saturday for a hunt and marron. Drove along the blackwood and looked at the BILLIONS of people down there. Was like a super highway...
Were never intending of marroning there just wanted a look.
Kept cruising around looking for a spot. Caught a nice little piggy on the way. Ended up at the barlee brook near the Donnelly. Stayed there for about 2 hours. Only managed 1 marron that went 95mm.
In my opinion this is a small one and should be the minimum size for them. Managed to get a trout that was pretty sick. Was blind, had half his tail eaten and had bugger all flesh to him.
Moved down to the Donnelly river. Managed none there. Was pretty disappointing. Looked good ground for them too.
Oh well, we had snaggers for dinner that we brought "just in case" we caught nothing...
Got up on Sunday more of a hunt got another pig at about 6pm then Home for a cold beer...
Better than sitting around at home doing nothing...

We use dogs to find them in the bush. The guy in the pic is towza. We take his .44 out just in case its a monster. Otherwise we use a knife. Easier on the ears. Got a pic of the first. Didn't have the camera for the second.
