About Chipping Norton Lake
Anglers know Chipping Norton Lake as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of New South Wales, Australia. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Chipping Norton Lake is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques
- For Japanese meagre
Target Japanese meagre during low light conditions or at night, and work lures slowly and methodically near structure.
- For Bluefish
Bluefish are aggressive; use wire leaders to prevent bite-offs and retrieve lures at a fast pace to trigger strikes.
- For Dusky flathead
Target sandy or muddy bottoms near structure like weed beds or drop-offs, and remember to let the lure sink to the bottom before starting your retrieve.
