I last visited this area in detail in autumn 2012, see blog posts here:
I thought I'd try to catch some winter trout here as most rivers are closed but impoundments are fishable all year round. Currently in August 2023 the lake is 100% full with the spillway flowing. No luck with the fishing but it was an exceptional day relaxing by the tranquil lake shore and taking Helen for a bush bash and exploring around the lake. We saw two people all day and the temp was around 15 Deg c and sunny periods after a cool 2 degree c start.
