Fishing
|
The Tamar Valley and Northern Tasmania has something for every angler. Lowland rivers and highland lakes areall easily accessible from Launceston Tamar Valley. Trawl for big, sea-running trout and salmon – or head for deeper water and test your game fishing skill against tuna and marlin.
From novice to pro, practise your skills at Old Mac's Farm and Fishery or Tasmania Zoo.
Fishing charters can show you where Yellow Tail King Fish may be landed in season, along with Flat Head, Barracuda, Pike and Salmon. Kelpies (Coral Trout) are fun to catch and release, and Gummy sharks are a year round catch in the Tamar River and can be caught in water as shallow as a metre.
Currie River Lake, Arthur’s Lake, Great Lake (Tasmania’s best freshwater ‘winter fishery’), Brumby’s Creek, Macquarie River, St Patricks Head, and Lake Barrington are all achievable day-long trips from Launceston. And you can sea-fish within easy reach at Port Sorell, the Pipers River mouth and Anderson Bay, Bridport.
