About Lake Parramatta
Tucked into New South Wales, Australia, Lake Parramatta is a reservoir that fishes differently season to season. Spring brings fish into the shallows to spawn or feed on early baitfish; midsummer pushes them to cooler, deeper water; autumn turns them aggressive again as they pack on weight before winter. Anglers planning a trip to Lake Parramatta should check water temperature and recent weather — a sudden cold front can shut a reservoir like this down for a day.

Fishing Techniques
- For Japanese meagre
Target Japanese meagre during low light conditions or at night, and work lures slowly and methodically near structure.
- 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.
- For Southern yellowtail amberjack
When fishing structure, use a heavier leader to prevent break-offs, as yellowtail will often run hard into rocks or reefs.
