:( I can feel your pain Noel, but maybe you're wishing too hard? Try the Zen approach and play hard to get yourself...

I know that venue very well - in my hardier days I lived 10 months in a caravan behind those dunes and nearly got bored with the bass there - but there were no schoolies in the winter, thats an encouraging development. Congrats to the catchers.

Bad luck Noel. Catching bass is like making babies, the harder you try, the less likely it seems to be to happen. Stop trying so hard, enjoy your fishing and the bass will come!
