Pirtek 2015 Plans

[mazman]

Hey guys with the comp just round the corner I was wondering where people are heading for competition and what they're going to try and catch.
I am hoping to pick up some bream and flatties but plans aren't yet confirmed.

Cheers Alex

Only going to have a couple of hours at best on the day so I'll see if I can get onto a few bream. Probably hit up the docks during the day

Away with the Fishing Vic crew on the Murray Cod trip - So I will be hunting Mud Marlin for Pirtek again this year
More than likely in the same little stretch of water as last year depending of cause where we end up camping

I'll be on the Cod Trip also but I'm thinking I'll fish the Broken Creek and Goulburn River on the way home :reel: :banana: cheers davo

Chasing yellas throughout the Loddon River and probably Lake Eppalock as well.

Depends on the weather! A likely spot (channel) I would like to try has no shade so if it is hot, I don't think I can handle it. This location will give me a chance of a yella, carp or redfin. Would have a bait rod in and cast some lures. Unfortunately the likely outcome will be a cod, almost guaranteed and that is not what I want on the day.

Have the option of heading north to either the Broken Creek or Nine Mile Creek and chasing carp. But if the weather is warm, the resident yabbies will be active and they can be a pain. I am going to visit my mate this week so will catch some yabbies for bait and see what the fishing is like.

What I do know is wherever I go, it will be a place where I can just drive up to the waters edge and park the car! Then use my highly dangerous portable cookers to make coffee and egg and bacon rolls! :dinner:

thinking bass strait somewhere

[meppstas]

It will be Brown Trout for me down here in Tassie... Mersey or Meander Rivers more than likely.

[yogibearrrr]

still unsure, been trying a few places over the last few weeks as test but no idea where to go yet as we'll be landbased

Whilst the 'cod crew' are preparing for their trip, I am getting organised for my carp trip tomorrow! Heading to the Nine Mile Creek to sus it out for a potential Pirtek winning carp! If I can get bait past the yabbies this may be my choice for Sunday. Forecast temp of 28, I can't be bothered sitting in the sun on a channel bank. NE to ENE light winds forecast and a high pressure system moving away are not my favourite conditions.

Shrimp will be used for bait as well home grown corn! Cooked tonight (I decided to eat most of the corn myself :dinner: ) and placed the rest in a bag with strawberry essence and red food dye = red corn! For Sunday I am taking it one step further...black food dye as well as red...go the bombers! Anyway, this is my preparation so far!
cheers
Team Bender
Sometimes I come across as being corny!
