Set out from the wharf at Tench Reserve, Penrith and head up river deep into the Nepean Gorge. The most popular tour is half day (approximately 4.5 hours) at anytime that suits you.
The custom built boat allows passage to places where few people, let alone fishing people, get to go.
Truly the catching of fish is a bonus as you are in an amazing natural wonderland, sheer sandstone gorge walls, huge gums, clear clean water, sea eagles flying overhead, fish leaping from the water – a true hidden treasure.
All the equipment you will need is supplied. All you need to bring is a hat and jacket, and your fishing licence for the day is included. Water, drinks and snacks is available on board.
