Looking for Redclaw after the Floods
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 гру 2024
- This was filmed a few weeks after the February floods in South East Queensland. The dam had only opened up a week or so before I headed out for a look. I was all the confident as Redclaw at Wivenhoe dam can be hit and miss at the best of times due to the amount of area that the water covers. It will be interesting to so how the dam's in this area fish also after lots of water has been over the wall's.
I've been struggling to get the time to put video's together as of late, but have about 10 trips that need to edit. So if liked this style of video there will be plenty more to come.
Thanks Tony
Hi, great videos really enjoy them. Also , I’m heading out to Wivenhoe Wednesday or Thursday. If your off and out there would be appreciated to get a few pointers. Cheers
Cheers. I think it might be hard work out there after the floods early in the year. Was out there a month ago and was still dead catfish poping up.
Hope you have more luck then me then i did.
Ever since I first saw you catch red claw in Wivenhoe I have been out every chance I get, I have used cat food rock Mellon cheers, from 8 ft to 25 all around the bottom half of the dam , I mostly hook a couple of bass or a nice yellow belly, but the only thing my pots have dragged in are shrimp and the odd laze cod . What am I doing wrong? Cheers
Yeah it is a tough place to get them sometimes. You be doing nothing wrong, I think that the catfish eat most of them so the numbers are nowhere as big compared to somerset etc.
I have found good patches before but took a few trips putting pots in different areas to find them.
I thought on that trip out being left over night would have hit the mother load but didn't happen. Just have to keep trying, for me it's not to far away which is why go there fairly often. Able to sneak out after work sometimes.
I have found yellow bellie full of small red claw
where is your information on the float mate
Is there a boat motor size limit there
No just has to be 4 stroke or a two stroke like etec. Is 6 knots everywhere, but that keeps the place pretty quiet.
