Hi guys. Went for a fish today at Cairn Curran and Tullaroop. Slept in though and got a late start. Fished at Cairn Curran near the spillway gates, lake side. Not much was happening. Saw one skinny sickly looking fish a couple of pounds maybe sitting just under the surface. Dont know what it was, it dived when it saw me anyway, probably died and sank. Water had a few small green algae rafts floating but not excessive. There was none on the rocks and no smell. Water looked a bit murkier than its usual muddy appearance. I wasn't overly enthused so left after a fruitless hours casting.
You'll see the algae rafts in the pics.
To Tullaroop.
Water looked better but was a little murkier than my last visit. Last December it had a good 2+ meters visibility, today a murky 1.
Saw a number of turtles. Had a few hits on the T Tail, small taps really. Then a hook up, sort of, a tiny redfin. Ah well was a fish and a first on the Aird X and Sedona.
Decided to have one more cast (which always ends up being a fisherman's one cast = 10) no joy and as the heat was kicking in I left. Fun anyway and beats sitting around.
Not a fishing report, unless you count seeing a sickly fish, catching a baby redfin and seeing turtles as such
Cheers.

Re: Cairn Curran & Tullaroop
Yeah more a water quality heads up, Cairn Currans at 39% and Tullaroop 45%. Im amazed they both are not full of algae to be honest, given the weather over the past 8 weeks.
I'll set the alarm next time and make sure I get up.

It was a great report, and yes a fishing report at that , , , , even with the sickly fish , , , , that must now be ticked of the "To see list"Brownie wrote: Not a fishing report, unless you count seeing a sickly fish, catching a baby redfin and seeing turtles as such
