tasmania Fishing Strahan Tasmania

[johngreens]

Hi all,

I am going to be traveling to the West Coast of Tasmania in about a week and am hoping to get lots of fishing in.

I have heard there is some amazing saltwater fishing in and around Strahan and some pretty decent inland fishing in lake burbury, Queenstown Tasmania.

Have any other member fished these areas? I have been looking at photos online and the areas look so picturesque and amazing.

Welcome to the forum.

Can't help with information but would reckon it

would be a good trip. Few mates have been down holidaying and

they enjoyed themselves. Not fishing, just holidaying.

Have a good/safe trip.

Hey @johngreens

I just did a quick web search, and found an article which will hopefully help.

(There are a couple videos too).

It's supposed to be amazing fishing in Tassy for many things. Hope you're successful!

Cheers Hamish

It was absolutely amazing!

We ended up staying a week camping at Macquarie Heads in Strahan. I was surprised that the wife and kids loved it too.

We were able to take our car right up to the water on the beaches and fish from the boot, which the mrs. loved even more.

All that paired with dirt bikes, quad bike and vast expanses of open beaches and huge sand dunes made for the perfect getaway.

Sounds great. I've been to Strahan but only looked at the beaches from a distance. Didn't see a single soul there.

How was the fishing, any luck ?

Sounds like a good time was had John.
