General Comments:

Nice lake plenty of room in the swims, we fished swim 11

Details of your catches:

We had around 55 fish between us up to 57lb. I finished with 19 fish but mainly stockies and 4 30s to 38.12. My mate in the deeper water had a better stamp of fish with a few 40s and a couple of 50s, with 3 big sturgeon as well from the centre of the deep water.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

I came out last in the draw and fished peg 3. The weather changed for the better for me I fished a rod length off the left tree line at 29 wraps. I fished tigers topped with fake corn because I get hassled with crayfish.

General Comments:

The fish spent the whole week showing in deeper water in front of pegs 10/11 so was hard to get them feeding. In front of peg 6 the deepest water you have access to is 5-6ft.

Crayfish were active so baits were getting destroyed so come prepared for this.

The quality of the fish were great and they fight hard. The hosts are great too. They leave you to fish and check-in every other day to make sure you’re ok.

The only thing I’d say is that a platform on the peg would be better. The bank on peg 6 is far too shallow to land fish or put a bait boat into the water without causing damage. You almost have to get into the water everytime, which was OK for me but not ideal.
