There were plenty quality Golden Perch landed late last week, mainly on hard body lures and blades. Live shrimps and salt water yabbies also worked well for the bait anglers.

MOOGERAH DAM / MAROON DAM: The Bluefin Lake Maroon Fish Classic was held last week. From all reports it was another successful event with competitors landing some nice fish. The weather conditions were a bit harsh at times but everyone seemed to have an enjoyable weekend. There was a lot of boat traffic at Moogerah due to this fishing competition at Maroon. Anglers seemed to manage to pick up a few nice Bass up in the more sheltered areas.
RIVER AND CREEKS: Our local rivers and creeks continue to fish well. However, the windy conditions over the weekend didn't do any favours for the fisherman. There were still some nice Golden Perch landed in and around the Warwick town area. The annual Warwick Carp Fishing Competition was held on the Condamine River on Sunday morning. There were in excess of 100 registrations with approximately nine of these pests being removed from the river. A big thank you must go to the organisers and supporters of this event.

PRODUCT REVIEW
The Rapala X-Rap® is "all about the action" and it triggers strikes. It’s the perfect size and three-dimensional shape of a minnow. Prominent scales and the lateral line on the fuselage capture and flash light like a beacon.
It’s a lure that is designed for aggressive fishing. The angler provides the action and defines the cadence, for maximum effectiveness.
Slash one near your neighborhood brute. Dance the Flash Foil Teaser Tail in front of his nose and hang on tight.
