These fisheries all occur in lakes, ponds or retarding basins, generally smaller than 3ha. They are only capable of supporting trout during the cooler months. They are usually stocked prior to the 2nd and 3rd school term breaks. This provides angling opportunities for junior anglers and people with limited mobility.
