G'day Kelbob.

Had the car & boat all loaded up for my annual dam-crawl & had planned to head off from Dubvegas at 0500 today. The plan was to start off with Keepit for the weekend, before getting into the SE Qld impoundments. Walked outside & it was raining horizontal, & the dog had blown off his chain. Checked the weather sites & it was all bad news until tomorrow. "Stuff-it!" I said, & went back to bed.

The good news is that the weekend weather looks very promising & I hope to meet a few of the locals, as well as bag a few of those Keepit yellas. Might even send a few carp to the big pond in the sky.

I'll keep an eye out for a bloke with a glow-in-the-dark spinnerbait.

The weather is fantastic today, and the weekend looks to be a pearler

I will be there sat and sunday, if your out on the water my boat is a little 3 man fibreglass, white with a blue top rim.

More than happy to have a yarn, just look for the blokes going mad with lures.
cheers

Well, it's now tuesday and the trip to keepit was not as good as i hoped. No luck on the glowing spinnerbaits, no luck on our lures, no luck on all the different bait we took and we came back looking like we just took a stroll through hell - burnt and not happy. >

On the other hand we did get rid of 14 carp, not what we were targeting but it did keep us keen. We also sank a large number of beers, so i guess it wasnt all bad.

As for the glowing spinnerbaits, never give up. I will be going on a day trip to Warrabah National Park soon - lets see how that go's.

Kelbob,

I had a fish on Friday arvo, only to catch 3 nice cod, which were promptly released of course. Thought it would be a good start to the weekend, but didn't catch another thing. Some of the bait fishos did OK & congrats to the guy who won the comp. Weather was glorious & it was hard to drag myself away at lunch time Sunday, but there were a few Qld bass waiting for me.

Nice dam, nice facilities. Like Arnie said, "I'll be back"
