BROWN TROUT HARVEY DAM MY CUZ GOT A CRACKER

BROWN TROUT HARVEY DAM  MY CUZ GOT A CRACKER

We drove down on Saturday morning and arrived at Harvey Dam at 12.30pm we started to flick lures as soon as we got there but only managed to land a few little rainbow trout’s and some Red-fin perch. It started to get a bit dark as the sun went down and my dad said that’s enough we will try early tomorrow morning and I said one more cast, as the lure hit the water and I started to retrieve and I got a massive hit on my Yo-Zuri minnow it took me 10-15 mins to land it. I was using a Stella 2500FD spooled with 10LB of Sun- Line Braid with a 1-3Kg Berkley Tournament Drop shot Rod the fish weighed in at 3.95Kg and was released straight away to live another day
