Catch your own Rainbow or Brown Trout in the Fish River. Experience the tranquil ambience of flowing water and small rapids in this undulating bush and farmland.
The streams open for fishing at the start of October long weekend and close at the end of the June long weekend. A Freshwater fishing license is required.
Both rainbow and brown trout can be found in the Oberon area. Lake Oberon is regularly stocked with trout. The Lake is open for fishing all year round.
