North Creek Canal

Fishy Saturday! In a Spur of the Moment decision I decided to lace up my boots and put on my backpack…and took myself down to a Ballina. It drizzle rained all the way down there! Expectations were low… I did my usual little route. Incoming tide. It didn’t take more than 2 casts when I scored myself a nice solid 30cm Bream and shortly followed by another legal one and baby one. Then nothing for the next hour. So moving on to the next spot. I reeled in 4 more small Bream over the next hour (with a few snags in between) and I made a new friend - shout out to @andrew Moving on to the last spot I managed another 3 nice Bream within 10min and then I got snagged again and decided to call it a day. Successful day with a total of 10 Bream and I didn’t get rained on once!!! Tight Lines my friends 🐟💪🏻

Nice little bream

WIND and a WHOPPER! 🐟 I had to run some errands a few towns south from me (in Ballina , NSW) and I thought I’d go early before the shops open to get a spot of fishing in. Well let me tell you THAT wind almost had me eating saltwater - twice. BUT despite the crazy gusts I managed 2 Bream in an hour with a Whopper 35cm one to add to my WOW list!!!! TIGHT lines everyone!! ❤️🐟💪🏻

My dad OUTFISHED me…but one BIG BREAM made up for it! I was blessed to have my dad visit again and of course we snuck out for another landbased fishing Session in Ballina. Well let me tell you…the old fella well and truly whipped my butt. He kept pulling out fish after fish…I was super stoked for him but also a little jealous lol 😂🫢 I did manage a stonka of a Bream though so my sadness was not too severe. Another great day out with dad with hopefully many more to come. Make sure you check out all the action on YouTube. https://youtu.be/9jd_LQ9nm_U?si=KgDkcpklQPr3C5_j Tight lines Everyone! ❤️🐟💪🏻

Catty Catfish…did some creek exploration and also visited a usual haunt. Amongst the usual Bream I also managed a few cats. Baby oneeyed cat and its bigger cousin. I think we call them forktail catfish here but not sure. They sure put up a great fight! 🐟💪🏻
