Very cold and not many anglers ventured out last week. Rain on Thursday and Friday has given the water a tinge of colour which seems to have helped catches, especially for bank anglers as the fish are less easily spooked.
On Sunday Mike Edwards and Scott Bowman anchored off brookside bay and fished black and green lures to take 19 fish between them.
Yesterday in freezing conditions only two bank anglers fished. Neil Groves caught 9 from the dam on a pink snake while Boris Rasic landed 16 from brookside with a black cruncher his top fly.
Half day tickets are now available 7am until 2pm or midday until dark.
