Garmin the Game Changer

Our clients are loving the Garmin Live Scope. To find fish we simply scan all the likely haunts: points, weedy edges, snags etc. If there is fish around it is immediately obvious. All the bass we found today were sitting at 4m deep. And so were the baitfish. A 4m thermocline must have provided the optimal comfort zone.

10,000 Bass Stocked into Clarrie Hall Dam

Thanks to Fisheries NSWย 10,000 Bass fingerlings have been stocked into our favourite lake on the 1st of September 2020. What better way to celebrate the first day of bass season ๐Ÿฅณ Fisheries were careful to select local brood stock to ensure the genetics of the local Northern Rivers strain of Bass is preserved.

Toonumbar was also stocked with the same number of Bass. Our recreational fishing fees are put directly towards these stocking programs. So kudos to everyone that pays their fees ๐Ÿ˜€

 

Garmin Panoptix Live Scope

Very happy to announce we installed a Garmin 8410 Panoptix Live Scope on the NRS boat over the weekend. As soon it was bolted down we eagerly launched the boat on the farm dam to test out the new Garmin. It wasn’t long before we found fish and we watched the screen with amazement as the fish reacted to our lures. Within 1/2 an hour this technology confirmed what we had suspected for years. That fish like Bass are attracted to the boat but then become wary and only follow the lures with curiosity.

The Garmin will enable us to locate fish from a distance and in real time observe their movements. This will give a huge advantage in learning about fish behavior and how they react to a lure or fly. Very much looking forward to taking this baby fishing out at Clarrie Hall. Look out fish, we have the advantage now!
