Hi, can you please tell me if fishing is allowed in Valley Lake and if there are any restrictions. Regards Rick
Hi Rick, great question.
I can’t find any indication that you can’t fish in the lake, but it is always best to check with the local council to be sure. Email: [email protected] or Phone: 08 8721 2555.
Best regards,
Jess
Hiya – I think there are no fishing and no swimming signs in some of the areas there around the Valley Lake – however it would pay to check with the local council as suggested :D
