  1. No hunting allowed.

    When required, Seqwater uses a contractor to cull the deer.

    Re the pots, at 4 per person it doesn't long to built up numbers. For some reason, people seems to think that the best place to put pots in is where others put theirs!!

    I mean, it stands to reason that if there's lots of pots in one area, there must be plenty of shrimps there too 🤔

    What ever happened to the Prfma rainbow breeding scheme they had going years ago ?

    Slowly fell by the wayside due to reduced demand for the rainbows.

    The over the top OH&S requirements required by the council bureaucracy before allowing access to the site finally ended it.

    Hey Ray. Love to try for some of those bass. I know you’ve told us many times before but is there a limit on the size of engine allowed on NPD? Mine’s only 200hp. Is that okay?

    Hi Greg, no fuel powered engine allowed on NPD at all.

    Electric powered crafts allowed for PRFMA boating access permit holders (see http://prfma.com.au/info/boating-access-scheme/ )

    For other SeqWater dams see https://www.seqwater.com.au/locations-and-guides 

  4. It varies across various dams.

    On some electric only dams, you can leave your outboard on as long as you don't use it eg Lake MacDonald.

    Some dams have horsepower restriction and speed limit eg no engine over 60 Hp / 6 knots on Lenthals Dam.

    Somerset Dam has no restriction on outboard size & speed whereas Wivenhoe Dam has a speed restriction of 6 knots.

    It pays to do your homework before visiting a dam.

  5. Given the size of NPD, you might get laughted off if you could launch your boat there (electrics only, no outboards attached).

    Mind you it wouldn't be out of place on a dam like Awoonga Lake near Gladstone.

  6. Bass breed during the winter months. So at this time of year, bass (including those in impoundments) get ready to breed.

    Females in particular can put on some serious weight as their eggs are developing and can feed quite aggressively.

    Since they need acces to brackish water to breed, after a couple of months the females will reabsorb their eggs and the males their milt.

    When they're ready to breed, it's not unsual to have the males leaking milt when you bring them into the boat.
