Community fishing

Be part of the Community ‘catch and release’ fishing program at Sydney International Regatta Centre. Supervised by NSW Department of Primary Industries Fish Care volunteers, it’s a great way to learn about responsible catch and release practices, as well as the rules and regulations of inland fishing, fishing conservation, ethics and the environment. You’ll also learn about the adaptive management plan of Penrith Lakes, including the importance of native fish communities for thriving ecosystems and recreational fishing.

There are currently nine species of freshwater fish in Penrith Lakes, including Australian bass, freshwater catfish and long finned eel.

All participants must sign in with the Fish Care volunteers on arrival who can run you through where fishing is allowed in the Warm-up Lake under supervision. You are not permitted to fish in the Competition Lake or around other events that may be taking place at the venue.

Enter via Gate A, turn left and drive through the boom gates. Park in the P1 carpark after crossing the bridge and find a fish care volunteer. For further assistance, please call venue management on (02) 4730 0000.

The Community fishing program is held most Tuesdays from 9am to 3pm. Check our daily opening hours page for upcoming fishing dates.
