The Countdown to Opening Day is under Way!

Our Salmon Season kicks off on February 1st. 

Blackwater - New Year

Spawning this winter
Fisheries officers report that spawning has been very good this year – particularly on the upper reaches of the river & certainly down as far as the Funcheon tributary.

State Licences
These will be the same price as they were last year.

Season extension
It was disappointing to hear that the extension to the season to October 12 which was granted here on the Blackwater for the last 3 years will not be continued in 2015.
