new south wales Trout in central west NSW

[baz82a]

hey guys I've been trout fishing for years now around the central west and after the last 3 years have been fairly lean in the amount of trout and size of trout caught I'm looking at heading further a field in chase of the hard fighting brown and rainbow trout. Any ideas and suggestions would be appreciated. I live in Parkes and am prepared to travel up to 3 hours to chase a good fighting fish

Cheers

I would look at heading to Eucumbene, Jindabyne, Blowering or Burrinjuck Dams.

They are all good trout dams but you would need to fish deep with cowbells, ford fenders or paravanes.

Those first 3 dams I mentioned all have some great streams around them if you don't want to fish the lakes.

Below Burrinjuck Dam has some amazing trout fishing as well in the river close to the dam all.

Thanks aussie,

I don't have a boat or access to 1 to fish dams properly, would only be able to do shore based. would appreciate a few creek names to check out if that's alright? I am solely a catch and release fisherman as I prefer to be able to go back and know that there is fish there for future fishing
