Lake Gordon

Lake Gordon provides excellent trout shing opportunities particularly for anglers with a boat. Shore based anglers should concentrate on nearby Lake Pedder. Both brown and rainbow trout are present in Lake Gordon although brown trout dominate. Drift spinning and trolling from a boat using cobra style lures is the most reliable method of angling. Fly shing with large wet ies can also be successful.Wind lane shing for rainbows can be very rewarding as well as wet y shing around the ooded timber from spring until autumn.
