Tamar River

From Sea Run trout in its upper reaches to Flathead and Salmon further down stream, the Tamar River provides and angling outlet for 1,000’s of Tasmanians.

One highlight is the winter run of Blue Warhou or Snotty Trevalla, a prized eating fish; and for the truly committed the Tamar River at times does produce trophy Snapper. Expect to spend 50 hours fishing for each big fish though – they’re not easy!

With thanks to the team at Hook Line and Sinker.
