Freshwater fish stocking feedback

NSW Fisheries has developed a new plan for recreational stocking of impoundments for the 2024-2025 season and is inviting feedback on what is proposed for this and future stocking events.

There are many reservoirs suitable for recreational freshwater fish stocking throughout NSW, and over the past four decades many excellent recreational fisheries have been established.

Native fish produced at NSW Department of Primary Industries & Regional Development (DPIRD) Narrandera, Grafton and Port Stephens Fisheries Centre’s, along with trout and salmon species produced at DPIRD’s Dutton and Gaden Trout Hatcheries, are released into public impoundments and dams annually for the benefit of anglers and to continue to support recreational fishing opportunities.

The draft plan is available on NSW Fisheries website – https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/…/enhanced-fish-production

Return any comments to fish.stocking@dpi.nsw.gov.au before 5pm Friday, 30 August 2024.
