    At the moment I recon spinnerbaits in the dirty water margins in the front half of the lake.

    Lure colour changes daily, but the main food source in Boney Bream.

    I use jackalls harb body and soft they both work a treat for bass and yella's. Every now and then i change to 1 of the other 100 lures in my tackle box, but the Jackalls always come up trumps, for me anyway. Last time there in july and caught a few around 48 to 56cm, with the best weighing just over 4 1/2 pound or 2.2kg.
    Went are you going there?
    We are heading that way againat the end of september for a week so fingers crossed with the fishing.

    Hi Jeks, we mainly go anywhere to the right of the boat second boat ramp at Kirkleagh to the 2 big orange 6 knot bouys and to the left up around the corner to the second big clump of trees on the left hand side bank. Trolling or casting does not really matter, and as for colour last time i was there i used 7 different Jackalls and caught a fish on each. Success came mainly straigh out in front of the boat ramp about 100 meters each side around the main channel. But who knows different every time we go there, as last time we mainly caught bass, the time before mainly yella's.
    We are going up there about the 21st of sept to the 28th sept so i will try and post a report when i get back.

    Cheers gav
