IFS staff recently completed a full maintenance inspection of the fencing installed some years ago to keep stock out of Bronte Lagoon.  Running from the walkway over Woodwards Canal all the way to Fly Corner and then beyond into thick bush, this fence has been successful in stopping cattle from entering the Lagoon along the Long Shore which is well known for its fly fishing opportunities.

Funded and managed by Hydro Tasmania, the Tasmanian Land Conservancy and Inland Fisheries, this project was important to removing the environmental impacts arising from a large number of cattle grazing the sensitive margins of the lagoon.
