Great report Taz, felt like I was there. Oh yes I was there, great fishing, but I'm not quite sure how small a bass has to be before it's classed as a schoolie! They were feckin big schoolies.
Oh yes I now have an even bigger headlamp, but that tractor battery makes your neck ache!!

You had another great night by the sound of it. I told you that special bait works!
I'm sorry now that I couldn't make it. Still that's a good idea about the generator, Im now looking for 2 mile of cable. I've got that headlight out of the old Scania truck. I just need a way of head mounting it without having to wear that neck brace!!
Great pics and see you all soon.
