Moore River field day


It was our club's field day yesterday, and we went out to Moore river (about 80km north of Perth).

I had never fished the Moore river before, so I was keen to see the place which my friend was describing as "a hidden treasure".

We got together in early morning at the boat ramp. I then jumped on Ross's boat, and we decided to head upstream.





The river was running between steep hills and sand dunes, and after leaving the car park area at the mouth of the river, I didn't see any sign of "civilization" or "progress" along the bank.

There were a lot of fish in the river. Grunters were everywhere from flats to snags, where as, breams were found mainly around snags. Some snags were very large and we managed to pull 3 or 4 breams from one snag.







The place was as beautiful as my friend's depiction, and I would like to thank every one for organising the field day, especially Ross for putting me on his boat.

Thank you guys. It was a very good day.
