Leslie Dam hit 100 per cent last week after intense rain filled up the dam over 20 per cent within days.
While the flooding due to the rain was cause for concern, locals were all smiles about the full dam.
Locals gathered at the dam on Thursday afternoon, hoping to see the dam floodgates open once capacity was reached.
The water release was expected to happen around 6 pm, however did not occur until around 10 pm that night.
Throughout the rest of the week and over the weekend, locals flocked to the dam to see the historic levels, with the pipe open over the weekend to let water out after the gates were closed.
