Short Property Description

It’s the time when the land starts to warm rapidly and so does the sweetwater. From Brogo Dam, the river downstream and into the Bega system, bass and perch are there for those who wish to venture into some of the more remote areas of the region.

Lets start with Brogo Dam and follow the river down to the sea. With the efforts of the Far South Coast Bass Stocking Association, Brogo needs no introduction and is now one of the best freshwater fisheries on the South Coast. Now is definitely time to start fishing it.

The better areas are likely to be around the weed beds up towards the back of the dam, where bass feed on aquatic life and respond well to lures. On warmer evenings, fly fishing the surface is a lot of fun, especially if there is an insect hatch, while the bait fishos are also accounting for some nice fish. In the river below the dam there are some holes accessible by foot for the adventurous.

Organic/Biological methods we use

Horse poo/stable mulch, seaweed fertaliser.
