Trout Weekend will be held at IFS Liawenee Field Station for 2023 on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 May.

Trout Weekend is an outdoor event celebrating the wild brown trout spawning run from yingina / Great Lake.

Crowd favourites include wild brown trout ova stripping and live fish displays. 

You will be able to talk to IFS staff about angler access, fisheries projects, carp control and compliance operations.

Bring your walking boots and walk the “Wild Trout Trail” down Liawenee Canal to see the working fish trap. This is a nice 3km return walk that will take about 1.5 hours return.

Hydro Tasmania, MAST, Biosecurity Tasmania and Marine Resources (Fishcare) are joining us for the weekend with informative displays, demonstrations, kids’ activities, giveaways and more.

You can buy your lunch or a snack. There will be food and drinks.

We hope we see you at Liawenee for Trout Weekend 2023.
