The depressing weather that has become par for the course up in Nth NSW of late looks set to continue this weekend and it's definitely going to limit my yak fishing options. The Clarence river is far from recovered and by all reports, barely worth fishing (unless down towards the entrance, where I can expect to catch species I'm not terribly interested in) so it'll be off shore, if anywhere this weekend. Sunday is looking like the better day, so on Saturday I'll be catching up on some outstanding work I have to do (there's no shortage of it right now).
Target destination for this weekend is Brooms Head, where I plan to catch up with 'Alby' and head out in the hunt for Snapper. He did a recon trip today and didn't fare too well, which didn't surprise me a whole lot. I'm not expecting miracles on Sunday, but you never know with fishing. If there's anything I've learned about fishing, it's that when you least expect it, expect it. So I'm not completely pessimistic about our chances.
Another thing I've learned about fishing is that it never pays to be truly pessimistic. Being so tends to effect ones performance in various ways. Pessimism erodes creativity, and some times it can really pay to be creative out there. So I'm trying not to put too much stock in recent reports and the results from the past months worth of fishing. It's gotta turn around sooner or later... doesn't it?
