Pemberton Discovery Tours does a tag-along to get you there, or they have the gear to take you out for an afternoon or days fishing. You can book this through the Nannup Visitor Service.
If you would definitely like to catch a trout for dinner visit King Trout near Pemberton. If you have your own rod, take it with you. Remember – what you catch is what you pay for…and King Trout make it easy to catch… If you wish King Trout will even cook what you catch. Whilst at king Trout enjoy one of their lovely mouth watering marron or trout meals or scrumptious morning teas. This is very good value and large sized meals.
Open season for trout is from 1st September to 30th April. From 1st May to the 31st August trout fishing is only permitted in the main rivers or from the commercial trout farms. Trout are most difficult to catch in January, February and March when the water is warm. Best spots are fast moving water below rapids. Mind you some of the largest trout caught in the Donnelly River are actually caught during these months.

Salmon – from Jasper beach, mouth of the Donnelly River, Salmon Beach, Black Point and Windy Harbour.
The marron season is very short, a licence is essential and due to overfishing, stocks are very depleted.
In lieu we recommend the following for a good feed of marron: Carlotta Crustacean on the Vasse Highway (10 mins from town). Purchase fresh marron ready to take home.
