FISHING AT PETER FAUST

Peter Faust Dam is stocked annually with an estimated 20,000 barramundi fingerlings.
One of the best things about barra fishing at Peter Faust Dam is the consistency of big fish. On average, Luke guestimates that almost one in every 5 barra caught is over a metre. Our guests have notched up some stonkers with the biggest two 117cm, and several over 110cm.
And its also an awesome dam for variety of techniques.
We can catch them jerk baiting in heavy timber and vibing, fishing weed edges as well as shallow points as well as on the surface (sight casting).
