Down the Burdekin here in the last few days the rains have fired up the upper steams and rivers. Checking out a few local spots in the early morning and late afternoons have paid off dearly. Having caught 14 barra and dropping 4 in quick sessions is a good sign to come. With the fish ranging from 450mm to 1100mm all silver colour and in solid condition. Where i live we have only had about 60mm of rain, so more will raise the water levels to bring on more of these numbers upstream. Would like to here from fellow qld's who have taken to this opportunity of the weather.

Thanks for letting us know, heading up to Ayr next week, sounds like it should be good.

Sorry honey better pack more fishing gear.

Peter, hope you get the chance for a flick or two. Do not worry about the quantity of lures, my daughter had brought me a $5.00 special from the local flea market in townsville which has done 90% of the work. Best of luck.
