FISHING REPORT - 14/1/2016


LESLIE DAM: Leslie Dam remains much the same as last week, with things continuing to be a little quiet.  We received reports of some quality Golden Perch being landed off the bank on bait.  Live crays accounted for the majority of these fish, some measuring up to 51cm in length.  Anglers using shrimp also picked up a few nice fish in the deeper water, just across from the dam wall.  We also received reports of a few smaller Murray Cod on the move.  Anglers trolling hard body lures along the drop off in front of the Washpool and around Cod Alley also landed a few quality fish.  There were also some fish landed casting blades in the deeper water in the main basin.
 
CONNOLLY DAM: Connolly Dam anglers managed to land some great fish, with plenty of big catfish being landed from the bank.  We received reports of some small Cod, Golden Perch and Silver Perch being landed, mainly on yabbies.  Most of the fish are hiding in, or close to, the weed edges.  Therefore, accurate casting is essential.
 
MOOGERAH DAM / MAROON: Maroon saw several Bass being landed over the weekend, with Sunday afternoon being the best.  Soft plastics worked well when placed hard into the weed.  A father and son landed some beautiful fish on Keitech 3" Swing Impacts.  Live shrimps also accounted for a few legal sized Bass along the southern bank.  Numbers definitely improved on previous weeks which is a very positive sign.
 
RIVER AND CREEKS: The Condamine River is looking good but fish numbers are still quite low, with not to many fish to report.  There were reports of some legal size Golden Perch landed below the Bacon Factory and upstream of the Mill hole.  Campers also had success on bait in the Pratten area.  The Dalrymple Creek to the east of Allora also saw a few legal size Golden Perch landed over the weekend.  These fish were landed on spinnerbaits and live shrimp.
