Your welcome,

Yeah it is good fishing around this area for Murray Cod. They seem to thrive well here in the rivers and dams in the Northern Tablelands of NSW. Have you ever fished around this area?

not really goodoo,iv fished split rock and keepit a few times,had my best days fishing trolling lures at split rock 23 yellas and 5 cod the bigest 42 pounds that was between 2 boats though,about 10 yrs ago,the dam was only 5% full all fish released,it was a magicall day,
im from mudgee so windermere and burendong are the dams i fish,but ive been fishing port stephens the last few years because the water around here goes in and straight out to the cotton farmers and the greenies

Yeah I have fished keepit and split rock a few times but main fish locally like copeton and pindari dams. that was pretty good going at split rock for you. i know it is a good dam to fish and some really good catches come out from that dam. I know what you mean by the water going out of the dams. about xmas last year copeton was 100% and now it is just over 70%. they just drain so much out it and quickly too.
