island bassin Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 My last PB was 4.85lb. Since May 2007 i cought around 25 bass very close to this figure and today was the day to break it!! I arrived at the dam early am 5am. After having a hot coffee i started searching with a jerkbait. After a 1/2 hour without any action i saw topwater action very close to shore. I cast at the point where i saw the action and .... 5.5lb Until 9:30am i cought another two 2lb on creature baits. i was very happy for breaking my pb but then i heard the bad news on my way to the car from some carp fishermen. Someone using fishing nets directly over the bass spawing area manage to catch a lot of 7-10kg carp as well as 2.5kg bass and a couble of zanders. Unfurtunately the situation in my country with illegal fishing is out of control especially this year as the water level is the lowest of the last 10 years. This is what is happening on daily basis :'( :'(, see also the water line and how low is the dam... Quote

Super User Catt Posted March 29, 2008 Super User Posted March 29, 2008 That's an awesome chunk Hopefully your country can get illegal fishing under control soon Quote

Vyron Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 ihaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa congrats on the new pb buddy!!!!! now for the 3kg!!!!! :) :) Quote
CyBasser Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Way to go buddy 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-) I just hope these beauties make it through the summer.... Anyway, regarding illegal fishing, you know what happenned last night, with the police going for the illegals on the eastern shore. In addition, earlier this morning, Police sent a patrol to Dhipotamos and Lefkara to stop illegal fishing there. I just hope these are not one-off events. The CFAA has decided to pusue this matter intently and hopefully will see some results... Quote
