Yellowbelly Comp

Anybody here fishing the comp this weekend?

With the dam level at 100% it's looking to be a cracker. Been looking forward to it for months.

Which comp are you referring to? I'm meant to be fishing the Windamere classic but am an absolute novice. Let me know how it goes and which techniques paid off

Best of luck

Windamere is firing right now, so I've be told. It was hard work at Burrinjuck, with my team only getting 2 yella all comp, I did score a respectful 477mm fish in the shallow on a ZX30.

The winning team won it with 7 fish I think, so it was a slow weekend for everyone.

At the end the winner revealed his game plan, he said it was all about the flats, 3 to 7 feet of water, with vibes about the same size as TN65's but a lot lighter.

I pulled my good fish out of about 3 foot of water, so I should have stuck with it. The last time I was there it was all about the 20 feet rock faces with spinner baits and LCB's, so you need a good pre fish and sus it out good and proper before the tournie.

We got a billion Redfin and a couple of cod, one going near 700 and fat.

The biggest fish went 540, so I was happy with my 477 on 6lb.

Good fun but crappy weather.

Good luck at Windamere.

Thanks for the report mate. and well done on getting amongst a few fish. Nice to see a couple of cod put in an appearance. Burrinjuck is only 4 hours or so from my place and I have been interested in fishing it for some time now. I'd be more than happy to release the cod and yellas and keep a feed of reddies for my efforts

Cheers

Cheers Hodgey,

Send me a PM when you're heading down there and I'll give you a few spots to try that have really fired for us in the past.

It's a great fishery that holds some really big cod.

Love getting down there and whacking a few.
