Mathoura Fishing Classic
The annual Mathoura Fishing Classic is held at Tarragon Lodge, (Picnic Point) on one of the best stretches of the Murray River. The competition is usually held the first weekend in March and always has fantastic prizes up for grabs. The superb location of this event allows all entrants to camp in close proximity to the main area, providing easy access for meals, fishing results and entertainment. The purpose of the Mathoura Fishing Classic is to raise funds to re-stock the rivers with native fish, while also providing entrants with the opportunity to experience a great family event in a fantastic location. In excess of 100,000 fish have already been released as a result of the Mathoura Fishing Classics. Read about the most recent competition |
