It was a fine weekend of exploration for Gavin and Jaybee who went on a couple of float tube outings on our local lakes. Enoggera was pretty busy with locals escaping the heat, but yielded a small and feisty bass under the skillful rod work of Gavin with plenty more lurking beneath. Lake Samsonvale saw the a couple of spangled perch come to life on the northern reaches, tempted by none other than the Jaybee's very own deadly breadly which is turning out to be a useful surface fly for many species.

If you area financial member and want to go float tubing, we have three club toobs for you to loan and we will be delighted to induct you into this very pleasant way of getting onto the waters :) ...

What another cracker of a day. Many thanks to Peter Woods and Jonno Smith who took us through some stream craft on the Brisbane River.
We now have no excuse when confronting a river for trout or in our case bass. Great to see some new faces in the club join us also.
A platapus also joined us later in the day, testifying to the health of the river up near Fernvale. ...

Going back to where my adventure started!

My first fish on fly was caught at Lowood bend on my first ever outing to a river holding a long rod! The book said that fish hang around rocks so I managed to land a cast just in front of that one in the background (I spent most of the morning in tangles amongst the long grass), and this greedy Spangled Perch smashed it.

It's easy this fly fishing game I thought to myself. Needless to say, that fish remains the largest I've caught in Qld 🤣

So come out to Lowood tomorrow at 8am and listen to our experts (not me!) edumucate us in the art of stream craft. It's more about listening than casting so we will walk the bank and learn everything we need to make our adventures more successful. Do bring a rod along if you would like to use your new found expertise after the demonstration!

Turn off the Brisbane Valley Highway onto Wivenhoe Pocket road at the far south of Twin Bridges Reserve and meet us by the river. Its's a COVID Safe event, so signing in is a must. Members and guests are all very welcome!

Jaybee ...
