2009 Wivenhoe Kayak and Canoe Fishing Convention

Hello there,
This year the 2009 Wivenhoe Kayak and Canoe Fishing Convention is being held again and I will be attending for the first time when it begins this weekend.

The Convention is a social event which includes two competition sessions; a show and shine exhibition where entrants can show off their craft to the crowd and social BBQ's.

The weekend has a small entry fee of $50 and camping is located at Logan's Inlet (at the dam).

Information can be found here on the Sweetwater Fishing and the official convention homepage here.

Wivenhoe is a renowned fishery with many Australian Bass being often caught up to a reported 60cm and also stocked with species such as yellowbelly (Golden Perch), Saratoga, Spangled Perch, Fork-Tailed Catfish, Snub-Nosed Gar, Silver Perch and the Mary River Cod. Though introduced species like tilapia, banded grunter and Redclaw Crayfish also make their home in the lake.

Hopefully Ill be able to get onto some of these fish.

Till next time>>>
