With possible rain again this week I went for another fish up the North Johnstone River today. The day was a bit slow getting going with heaps of half hearted strikes. First fish in the boat was this little JP on a Zman Grubz. Next was a 36cm Jack working a grubz over a fallen tree. Next was 46cm Barra on the plastic sitting in a big half submerged snag sitting mid river. Of course the Sooties came on. I used one of my Tigers (actually same one from last trip) casting over the shallower rocky areas. The smaller Sooties seem to like the shallower faster flowing areas. Average size here was 20-25cm with the Sooty of the day (40cm) pulled out on the Grubz from a covered fallen tree. Spotted the resident croc while going up and coming back today. The crocs in the Johnstone don't seem to like being exposed with boat traffic around and are very hard to get a photo. I did manage a photo of this dead pig in the river near the road bridge. Hope you like. Regards Chris.
