Recreational Fishing Forums 2025
Join us at one of 11 free forums in August and September to talk all things fishing.
All forums are co-hosted with local angling clubs, and are held on weeknights between 7 and 9pm.
You’ll get the chance to hear from experts about what we’ve been doing to make your fishing even better!
The forums also offer you the chance to talk face-to-face with our staff and share your ideas for projects that’ll make a real difference in your patch.
Each evening will feature presentations on relevant topics to the region, followed by question time and further discussion amongst those attending. There’s no need to register, just come along on the night and join in the conversation.
