Harvey Dam

Checked out Harvey dam for the first time today, didnt take any tackle because I thought it was closed till Sept. but there were a few fishing out of the way. Maybe( like in Victoria) they work for the Water Board.
There were a few trout rising which surprises me being winter. Anyone fished it with flies or lures, & is there a decent caravan park in Harvey or even brunswick?

You can still fish it

You can still fish it Rainbow, just gotta release any trout you come across.

We always use hardbodies, and do well on trout and reddies.

We are looking forward to camping in the area even though it only took us 50 mins to Harvey from Capel. Need at least aweekend to look & fish around

When do the trout start to come on out there?

I'd love to get down and give it a shot this year.
