Yellow bellies 34cm and 36cm
After the long awaited rain has ceased, Tim Durre from Toowoomba caught two yellow bellies this afternoon. He used night crawlers as bait (available from the Park's kiosk) . Seems the season started with a "lucky dip" for Tim.

Burpengary Fishing Club
After a rainy experience in November, this time the weather was perfect to go boating and drop the lines. Even though the catches were smaller and fewer this time, the blue sky and sunshine made up for it. The evenings were filled with singing and sitting around the camp fire, enjoying the company of good mates.

55 cm, Yellowbelly
Well that's the biggest Yellow Belly I have ever seen. The lucky bloke was Ken Darr from Mt Tyson, QLD. There is really good fishing at Leslie Dam, some say the best spot in the Darling Downs.
Ken was fishing early morning with lures.

What a new start at fishing. Douglas and Ttwo Gale from Toowoomba spent their weekend with family at Lake Leslie Tourist Park. They were amazed about their luck with fishing especially because Douglas took up fishing again after a longer break.
They lured 12 Yellowbellies on the first morning, the rest the following morning. The catch included one Silver Perch.
