I haven't bothered for a fair while but to escape the hoards of school fish and the 3 months a year warriors that somehow have a boat licence usually start May and finish early October. Fish are consistently bigger, their feeding patterns are stupidly regular so a trip could be as quick as 2 hours from leaving the driveway to returning to the driveway, theres very very rarely a hold up at the ramp and your baits aren't smashed as quick as they are from October onwards by garbage fish. The spawning season is good for throwing big plastics on 6lb gear. It's about the only positive of the coming months
