Hi Peter, Thanks again for another great video. I was wondering if you have fished Enoggera since we had all that rain? Have all the fish gone over the spillway? I hope not as l was just starting to work out how to fish it. Cheers Michael
Hi Michael, I haven’t. It has been closed to paddle craft since I returned from a trip down south. Some fish will go, but not that many. It is the time of the year that they push up the system, not down, so hopefully they will just push further up the reservoir.
hey peter, i live nearby so i wanted to give fishing at enoggera a go after seeing your videos and went out early on my canoe, but got skunked twice now :( should i keep trying or how could i improve my success rate? thanks
Ian it is well worth persisting. It has not been an easy year to find the fish and even when you do, loose one and they seem to disappear. I have done a couple of videos with tips for Enoggera, they are well worth watching. Outside of that. 5cm lipless crank baits and fishing close to the lily pads are the keys and after that it is just persistence. Time on the water will help you crack the code.
Have never had much joy with plastics there. If I was going to fish one, it would be a 3 or 3.5 inch paddle tail soft plastic on a 1/6th or 1/4oz jig head. Again rolled along the lily pads edges.
I personally use divers in enoggera, they get the job done, I usually come out the end of the day with at least 3-4 bass, I use stumpjumpers and the samaki ds60, but really anything that dives around ~4 metres usually works.
Awesome mate 👌👌
Thanks Michael, tough going fishing wise here with all the rain. They have been a little tough to find.
@PTPFishing yep went in a comp with Ray on Sunday tough day didn't register a fish but it's always good to get out any chance I can get mate 👌
There are worse places to be
@@PTPFishing 👍👍👌👌

Really enjoyed the video. What size inline single hook do you find works the best on the Tt flash point?
Sorry for the slow reply. It is a size 4 Mustad Kaju Inline single. This has been the best size for me.

ive also been wanting to try some soft plastics in the dam. do you have any recommendations? i was thinking a yabbie imitation could work well.

4 metre divers, will give that a try. Not too many areas you can fish those. Interesting.
