Yep, that's it mate. Was great to be able to basically fish out of your car on occasions! There was a pine plantation there, and the trees were getting too old and starting to fall down, so the authorities put a gate up and closed it off to the public, until they could log it. The logging should be pretty well done by now. Will do a drive by and let you know if they've re-opened it yet, but I some how doubt it.
Have caught some good fish near the pumping station too. Bit of walking involved, but have come back with some good bags at times.

Thanks very much Boony! The rec area is open, I can vouch for that, but looks like the back section is still closed. Sections 4,5,6. Bugger! Hopefully not too far away from re-opening though. I'm sure the care taker is still raping it for scrubbies to sell off. From what I hear he's a pig of a bloke if you ever have the mis-fortune of running into him!
