Went over there yesterday for a bit of a fish and a counter lunch,the lunch was a success :cheers: but the fishing a bit quiet with only 6 small reddys caught.It is down a bit so the lb options on this trip are probably going to be better on the town side of the lake.

You would be right! It was around 84% when we visited last year...now around 61%! Check out the comparison graph below...the 'red' (last year) vs current. And I can't see it getting much higher now that the irrigation season has started. Not even the current 'blob' on the BOM Yarrawonga radar will help! :) Can't beat drewbies knowledge of the place now as he has checked it out anyway...still plenty of fish there for Bender!
cheers
Team Bender
Still pumped and looking forward to it!
