Carp management

Fly Fishing for CarpWe currently have a volunteer fishing group called "Grass Roots", focusing on reducing the numbers of this pest species in our ponds. The group meets two times per month at different ponds.

Positions are available but booking is essential. Volunteers must participate in an induction to learn the specific methods used when fishing on the Parklands’ ponds.

Fishing in Centennial Parklands is only permitted through authorised sessions supervised by Centennial Parklands staff. Volunteers who participate in these programs have an exemption from the regulation prohibiting fishing and are allowed to fish on the ponds.

If you would like to join the “Grass Roots” group you need to call and book in early, as positions are regularly filled in advance.

There are also opportunities for corporate groups to come and fish in the Parklands ponds as a team building exercise. We also offer persons with a disability the opportunity to come and fish for free.
