But the river that ran out of the trout hatchery was always supposed to be as good a spot as any to find a trout.

The general open trout season starts on 1 September and ends on 30 April. However the Blackwood, Donnelly and Warren Rivers are open all year round.

I think you will need a freshwater licence.

Times of year? * Between now and the first big rains!

Times of day? * Morning and arvo in particular

What bait? I dont use bait but the Berkley Gulp 2'' Sandworms work as a sub!

What lures? * Spinner blades like Mepps & Jensens in size #2.

*Minnow lures like Maria Fake baits floating & sinking, Maria Flying divers, Komachi, Halco Laser pro 45,RMG Scorpion 35, R2sea Fingerling Shad and Rapala minnow!

Spots worth trying around Pemberton? * Big Brook, around the edges & the Wall. Go to the Warren (small drive out from town) and go to the Heartbreak trail area and all the carpark access areas are worth a fish. Redfin perch & trout!

The Pembo Pub is a great spot to get a good feed also!

has been a great spot for me over the years. Go down the road towards 'The Cascades' but contiue on till a little bridge over the Lefroy. You will spot fish all the way downstream to the Warren (few hundred metres)

If you have a 4x4 there is always the beach at the mouth of the Warren river,Windy harbour or Jasper beach back towards Nannup

I agree with Boppo. The Warren fishes very well and particularly from that joining of rivers.

The Cascades is a great spot. I used to drive down and sleep under the CALM hut. Wake up very early and quietly walk upstream in the mist. I used to carry a telescopic roc with a minow lure tied. I had some great times.

In the quieter parts of the day I used to sit on the old bridge just back from the King Brown trout farm and use worms and a float. Beer was always a go while waiting for some action. I have never come away from there without some decent Trout.
