Leslie dam, where have all the yellow belly gone
« on: May 29, 2011, 07:27:52 AM »
I went fishing at Leslie dam yesterday chasing yellow belly, sounded a few fish but caught 0.  Any suggestions on how to catch em when it cools down?


Never let the truth get in the way of a good fishing story.

G'Day Rodney,
You can still catch them right through, but I've found spring the best time. It could have just been a slow day so you may not have been doing anything wrong, tho I'd be inclined once Ive found some arches on the sounder to stick to them & rotate tactics; lures, direction of retrieve, speed, horizontal Vs vertical etc.

Sometimes they just aint biting, others you need to be there when the feed window opens.

Thanks Fitzy, Will give them a go on the Queen’s birthday week end at Glenlyon, mind you if I get one it will be a by-product as I'm gunning for cod.
