Lake Kara was stocked on 24 August 2012 with 450 Atlantic salmon averaging just under 2kg, the fish were donated by Saltas from Wayatinah. This is a fishery that has always struggled to show good results but is a popular water amongst North West anglers. Hopefully this trial stocking may result in some good catches for those that like to fish this water.
