Pickles Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 For freshwater fishos in central tablelands region, be warned of closure f some prime fishing areas. FROM January 16 a three-month Section 8 fishing closure under the NSW Fisheries Management Act 1994, is in place in the Central Tablelands Region, in sections of the Winburndale Rivulet and its upstream tributaries, including Winburndale Dam. During the closure, fishing by any method is prohibited, in the following waters located to the northeast of Bathurst, specifically: Winburndale Dam, sections of Winburndale Rivulet and its tributaries (the Gulf Stream, Mitchells Creek, Lagoon Creek, McCanns Gully, Kirkconnell Creek, Bull Gully, Scotts Creek, Bobs Creek, Tindales Flat Creek, Roundbody Gully and Black Spring Gully), and the section of the Winburndale Rivulet from the Winburndale Dam wall at 33.38972222°S 149.77694444°E to 800 metres downstream from that dam wall at 33.38916667°S 149.76833333°E. The closure is in place as a precaution to reduce the risk of potential spread of epizootic haematopoietic necrosis virus (EHNV) and to help preserve an important Macquarie perch population. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
