Bass Fishing Trip

[SmokingToe]

Hey guys,

Decided to organise a bass trip. Would like to know which dam we should go to. Baja, Disaneng, Bass Lake, Rust de Winter? Bass Lake is rather expensive Disaneng unsafe unless we go as a large group. So we kind of got to Baja or Rust de Winter.

Some advice would be great, any of u wishing to come along are of course also invited. I don't think we have a boat organised as of yet so if you want to come along and have a boat that'd be a huge bonus.

We looking to go sometime around 1 - 11 April, for two to four days. Let me know if you have any ideas.

Not being biased here, but even if Bass-lake is more expensive than the other venues mentioned, believe me, its worth it way more than it'll be at any of the other venues, unfortunately the only thing with Bass-lake is you gotta have it cracked to fully enjoy and get the "worth" that I'm mentioneing otherwise, you might see it as a waste of money, But even so, being there is by far better than any other venue I've been to for an extended trip of say two or three days.... but that's my opinion only.

Would you mind sending me the code for Bass Lake? Will have a talk with the other parties interested and see how they feel. For bass lake would we need a ski boat with 2X60HP motors or like a ducky with a 50HP or would a semi rigid with a trolling motor do?

Buddy, no main motors are allowed, we normally fish it with my Intex Mariner, now having said that the last trip, where I got five big ones with only one weighing in below 3kg's (1,98kgs) was all caught from the bank in one day, so you don't really need to have something that floats, but's it's nice, also the place isn't really that big, meaning that even if you don't use your main motor, you'll find it quite hard to deplete even a 105ma batt used the entire day.....

here's the tel: 016366 1127, remember to phone and ensure that they don't have a diving frenzy booked (esp with the easter weekend and shcool holidays)

BTW, here's a link to the info (needs updating) on Bass Lake.
