Fishing in Forbes

Fishing in Forbes

Being by the water during the summer months is almost a rite of passage here in Australia.

It’s just one of those things that are synonymous with this time of year.

So is seafood – and the thrill of your own catch!
And while Forbes don’t have “SEA-food” here in the waters of the Central West, they have some lovely freshwater specimens you might like to try your hand at, including Murray Cod (season from 1 December – 31 August) and Yellow Belly (Golden Perch).

The Lachlan River is a favoured location by locals and visitors alike, and Lake Forbes is another great spot to throw a line in – why not check out the new fishing pontoon on the Lake at Lions Park (Junction Street)?

You can visit local stores Loomzy’s Fish ‘n’ Fix, or Forbes Blue Sky Outdoor Experts for all your fishing needs and advice – and valuable local knowledge!

You can also pick yourself up your Fishing Licence from Loomzy’s, or at Service NSW (Rankin Street, next to the Aussie Biscuit Factory).
