Arriving late afternoon gives the opportunity to assess the conditions, settle in and prepare your gear before setting out early the following day to get stuck into the fishing. Staying on site means we can fit in with peak fishing times without the need to travel long distances. A second full day of fishing allows for a different experience, as no two days at Currawong Lakes are the same.
Evenings are spent by the fire, reminiscing about the days fishing stories, and formulating a plan for the next session. Transport from Hobart can be arranged, or we can meet on site at Currawong Lakes. All gear, accommodation and meals and access fees are included.

Currawong Lakes offers a premium fly fishing experience across three breathtaking freshwater lakes. Thriving populations of wild Brown and Rainbow Trout, and exceptional hatches of insect life, create a thrilling challenge for novice and experienced anglers alike.
Currawong Lake
The largest lake on the property, offering two distinct habitats for true trophy fish. Long and narrow, one shore is characterised by tussocky paddock, while the other is protected by native forest, with wild Brown Trout tailing the edges and shallows.
Long Marsh Lake
Boasting 32 acres of freshwater, Long Marsh Lake accommodates the highest self-sustaining population of fish on the property. Prolific shoreline weed growth hosts millions of midges, mayflies and damsels, creating an environment ripe for the angler.
Lake Macquarie
The smallest lake on the property, Lake Macquarie enjoys protection from the wind and regular glass-out conditions. Large fish are clearly visible as they patrol the deeper sections of the lake, well within casting range for the dry fly purist.
