Fished from boat and off bank at camp site, mainly used cheese and bardis, plenty of small fish around. Lost quite a few from snags and snap offs. Had a great time and didn't catch too many carp wich is good. (See photo in Gallery section.) |

Missed about 6 fish because I had rods in rod holders and wasn't paying attention. Bells ringing on rods but too slow and straight into snags. |

Barely had a touch. Water was down a good 2-3 metres from when I was there at New Year. The lakes are mud flats. Couldn't buy grubs anywhere either. Not sure if that would have made any difference though. |

Went on a holiday, on a houseboat - Dinki Di - started at Echuca and went to Barmah, then came back, then to the Campaspe River... best fishing trip of my life. |
