Just to clear up any misunderstandings, the place were we'll be camping is a caravan park. There's electricity, shower and toilet facilities, even laudry facilities. The tent section (tent city as we call it), is right next to the caravan park, so we wont exactly be "roughing" it.

Last time I was there, there was still a bit in the middle but it's still pretty dry. I just checked the volume on this site http://www.dse.vic.gov.au/DSE/wcmn20...2572100009B86F and it says, as of the end of April, it was 8.1% full with 15,315 ML of water. It can hold up to about 190,000 ML

Well, there is some, but you'll have fun going through mud before you get to the water!

That figure is out of date Dezza, the figure as of yesterday is 7.42%, 14131ML. It was down to 5.79% last week...

Scotty, if you like wading through deep mud for ages only to take your chances catching carp, then be my guest!
