- Dartmouth Dam is located 24km east of the township of Mitta Mitta in North East Victoria Australia, it's primary purpose is for the storage of irrigation water, it has the largest water storage capacity in Victoria.It is a special place as it is in a very sparsely populated area and is quite remote with very little development on it's shores so gives you a real sense of peace and tranquility.The Lake except for a small area right at the boat ramp has no mobile phone coverage so it forces you to take a break from the outside world and it's distractions and just live in the moment.There is a vast array of bird and animal life around the lake to add to the sense of calm.Dartmouth Dam has a large population of Brown and Rainbow Trout with the Brown Trout being a bit more prevalent, the Lake also holds Victoria's largest population of the endangered Maquarie Perch which cannot be taken from these waters and unfortunately there is also a large population of European Carp in the Lake.In this video i am camping on the Lake for 5 days with some friends who are focasing on hunting the Sambar Deer which are found in numbers around the lake.I am going to be fishing for Trout trolling and casting lures and also i am going to be using nets to try to catch Yabbies which are freshwater crustaceans.

Excellent info on lures you see mate and all round great video sandy
Thanks Michael I try to put information in there
Bloody rippa mate.
You have inspired me to do a Dart trip.
Thanks Andrew you have the ideal boat for it.It's certainly not short of Sambar deer either.I wonder if you could use the Active target to locate the trout in the creeks, so you know where to cast.Maybe you could even fit in a LPG heater in the boat.
Great video mate, what a trip! 👏
Thanks Andrew
Looks like you had more than enough of everything.... except spare fuel😂. Excellent video, mate. You've given me extra ideas to try up there, not the least being yabbies in winter. I'll also start keeping redfin frames, if I ever catch any in the future!
Thanks Ross I think carp, yellowbelly frames or trout frames would work just as well as long as it is fish.I had 60 litres of fuel but I do get adventurous and go to places as far as Italian Point which burns a lot of fuel and fuel is heavy to carry.I put the redfin frames in cryovac bags in lots of 10 because that will bait 10 nets.The redfin frames where from times when the redfin were a bit easier catch! And they were not looking too flash.The spinners and worms definitely catch fish behind fenders and cowbells I just haven't used them behind dodgers much.Look forward to any future videos you might make.I had the reflective tape on the floats, another idea I got from you Croc Tape is bomb it sticks better than others.
@@akhector excellent 👌. I want to trial chemical light sticks in the floats for night yabbying, and number them in case I miss one. Cheers, mate.
Nice! The floats will look like a night club, the Dart's going to be "Lit" as the younger generation might say,will look cool on video The numbers sound like a good idea
Thanks Ross, Yes i would definitely like a new boat, i want to go the whole hog when i get one so it will be expensive.This current boat has evolved over decades 0:02 so i am reluctant to just get another chep boat because it will take quite some time to get it up the functionality of this boat, there are a lot refinements that are not obvious to the casual observer.The boat is in being welded up at the moment and i have moved the trailer skid back 140mm to take pressure off the area that keeps getting cracks while it's on the trailer.So we will see how that goes also the boat i would want to get would be larger so i might need a new car as well.

I'm 13 minutes in and loving it...
Word up Homie! I have managed to get it shorter by 30min than the last one over a similar amount of days.I had a bit of Covid with some of the narration in the earlier parts of the video that's why it sounds extra nasally!
@@akhector Awesome, I'm half way through and loving it. I'm glad you took the right kind of ice. 😂😂😂
I hope you're over Covid. 🙏
@robbiefishing Thanks Homie I didn't realise until I said it that it didn't sound wholesome so just had to confirm it was the frozen type! Yes well and truly over the covid 3-6 months immunity get in me now!
Good plan to head up the inlets. The browns seemed to be in tight against the structure. And good tip on the yabby claws.
Yes Michael they always seem to be close to the edges hence why i was trying to troll close to the edges at one stage, at times it works well when the lure takes a different path to the boat in a sharp turn, yes Redfin frames + night time + 20-30ft of water = yabbies!
Entertaining as always Sandy, love the new editing techniques on this one 👍. Job well done.
Thanks mate, every video I learn somthing new, I just stumble upon new techniques others I learn off TH-cam.Hopefully getting a second gopro soon so I can have more angles and some underwater shots.
Is that 8 mile campground?
Livin like kings. Rather than add another bilge pump to that tinnie, don't you think it's about time to invest in a new boat?
Thanks Ross, Yes i would definitely like a new boat i want to go the whole hog when i get one so it will be expensive.This current boat has evolved over decades so i am reluctant to just get another cheap boat because it will take quite some time to get it up to the functionality of this boat, there are a lot refinements that are not obvious to the casual observer.The boat is in being welded up at the moment and i have moved the trailer skids back 140mm to take pressure off the area that keeps getting cracks while it's on the trailer so we will see how that goes, also the new boat I would get would be bigger so I might need a new car as well.
@@akhector Yes, I can see your tinnie has been personalised to just how you want it. Good luck with the new one and I do know about the 'expense' of a new boat.
@rossevans1774 thanks Ross, I am the first to admit that some of the refinements are somewhat eccentric! Would you believe it has 3 on board lithium battery chargers under the front section out of the weather so it is great when you stay at a caravan park or want to plug them into a generator.Yes they reckon that BOAT stands for "Bring Out Another Thousand!"
