Lovina learns to fish

With all the nearby lakes here in Michigan, a lot of

fishing is being done by people around here during this

nice stretch of weather.

We have enjoyed quite a few meals of fresh fish and have

more in the freezer. I enjoyed my first time out fishing

on the lake. My husband Joe took me one evening on his

boat. At first, I was a little nervous, but I finally

got the feel of the boat. It wasn’t long before we found

a good place to fish. Joe helped me bait my hook after

teaching me how to cast a line. We weren’t fishing very

long when I caught my first fish. It was a bluegill.

Later I almost had a big bass but it got away before I

could pull it into the boat. It was exciting enough,

though, to make me want to go again. It was also very

relaxing and peaceful out on the water.

Joe told me I did a good job of casting. I think he was

a little afraid at first that the worm on my hook would

land in his hair. We came home, and I helped clean fish

for the first time. We then went over to Jacob and

Emma’s house to meet up with our children. My sisters

Verena and Susan had taken the children with them to

Jacob’s house earlier. We all planned to "camp out"

there for the night. **

Bait fishing bonanza at weir

The Macquarie River continues to yield Yellowbelly and

Cod with winter well and truly knocking on the door.

Anglers at the South Dubbo weir had a bait fishing

bonanza with cricket score catches of Yellowbellys

between 35cm to 40cm being reported.

Lightly weighted shrimp caught and frozen during the

warmer months were floated down the wash through the

white water and took Yella’s consistently for bait

fishermen, with one angler banking and releasing a 50cm

brute.

The South Dubbo weir again had plenty of cameras out and

working overtime, with the majority of the fish going

back to fight again another day.

Windmere Dam:

A few weeks back you might remember reading in Dubbo

Catches about a 17 pound Yellowbelly taken at Windemere

Dam.
We have tracked down the angler, who happens to be local

fisherman Rod Tilling.
This “fish of a lifetime” was taken on a yabby, fished

off the edge of a weed bed. **
