I know this was asked before the winter, but with the benefit of hindsight I would say that the temp is the main factor. Remeber when they increased the flows in the middle of winter to lower the level above the barrage? Kevin Klopper and I were just below the barrage on the Sunday when they started increasing the flows up to 40cumecs. There was a baitie comp on at the same venue. As the flows got higher, the bait okes catch rate went up, but right in the middle of the river way below the main island where no man would ever dare to try and wade ( depth about 2m ).
