I went for a (easy) hike up one of my local creeks yesterday. It was a very warm morning, and I followed it up for a couple of kilometres.
All the while I was hoping that the semi tidal water would turn into a secret bass backwater or something.
- there are some small bass in the next creek south. The size of the bream improved as I went upstream from 20 cm to maybe 25cm!
So it was kinda fun, any log or stream obstruction would have the bream streak out and follow.
I would let the lure sit on the top and dare them to have ago - its like playing chess as they fin around thinking long and hard
before sipping the lure off the surface or spooking.
So it was fun, but unfortunatley the creek turned into a cane drain, so the secret bass spot was not to be.
