Wyangala Dam

[Madden]

Ventured out to Wyangala Dam last weekend for a days fishing with my brother decided to give the trout a rest in the Nepean as the river was rising and try to target a Cod. Had to stock up on lures as we hadn't seriously fished for Cod before and so it was down to the local tackle store to spend a few dollars on lures.

The day started off a little breezy but improved as the morning went on the dam looked great 95 odd percent full hasn't been at that level for a long time so we were optimistic of catching something.

Trolled lures all morning and tried casting spinner baits around timber but could only mange a couple of hits with no hookups at midday decided to tie up around some flooded trees and bob a few yabbies brought along just in case, baits ended up saving the day catching three yellowbelly we also lost three to snags not reacting fast enough to the bite.
