Sunday 22nd May 2016 Stannah

Third match of the season at Stannah Creek this morning.

Match was fished from 10:00 to 13:00 with high tide at 12:15.

Conditions have changed a lot in the last year with a high bank being in place towards the bend that made fishing difficult in the last hour.

Up river towards Shard Bridge 

Fishing was quite in the first hour with only the odd fish showing and for me personally even then they were undersized.

As the flow eased the fish came on and as expected this time of year the bait of choice was peeler crab however best results were when this was tipped with a good chunk of bluey. 

Once high water was reached fishing dropped off again as the run died. But conditions were cleaner.

Winner of the match was Ian Hewitt with 8 fish for 117 points including a good sized eel. 

Personally ended up with 8 fish but only 3 in size.
