Fishing Report 25/7/2017

LESLIE DAM: Anglers at Leslie Dam have experienced mixed results over the past week.  Sunday was the best day for the bait anglers, with reports of a few nice fish being landed mainly on saltwater yabbies.  We received several reports of anglers landing 10 or more Golden Perch, with some quality fish amongst them.  Anglers using blades are still seeing the best result at present, with some solid Golden Perch being landed.  These fish are landing in approximately 5 metres of water.  Anglers trolling hard body lures are managing to land the odd fish but most are closer to the bottom resulting in blades or mask vibes being the better option.

CONNOLLY DAM: Anglers at Connolly Dam are also landing a few legal sized Golden Perch on bait, with most fish being landed in the afternoons.  Anglers have also reported on some legal sized Golden Perch being landed on worms over the weekend.  It has been a little quiet for the lure anglers.  We received a report of a 67cm Murray Cod being landed on an Obsession Twinspin.

RIVERS AND CREEKS: The Condamine River is fishing quite well at the moment, with anglers having some success on the eastern side of town when fishing from kayaks.  We received reports of several smaller Murray Cod being landed on spinnerbaits and one on a swimbait.  There were some nice Golden Perch landed in the Mill Hole and upstream of Scots Weir on bait.  One local angler landed two Golden Perch on Sunday afternoon on a spinnerbait near the Junabee Road Bridge.

PRODUCT REVIEW

JACKALL MICRO POMPADOUR

The new Micro Pompadour if a Prop & Double hook. The rear prop makes a complex water current and noisy sound on the surface. Jackall has decreased line trouble by steady rear prop and double hook.  It has unique metal wings. The custom metal wings can crawl on the surface very well. When you try straight retrieving, it makes a big wave. it can also make a ripple on the surface when shaking.
