Arena:
The lakes entrance region is a unique place where the sustaining waters of five rivers end their journey to the sea, creating a crown of waterways studded with gems on both water and land, and edged with the finest beaches of golden sand. The clear, clean waters of the lakes and river systems abound with huge fiesty black bream along with a host of other estuary species such as Estuary Perch, flathead, luderick and trevally. Anglers have extensive angling options from sand flats, countless steep rock walls that drop into deep water, endless snaggy banks made up of tea tree snags and other fallen timber, as well as many others.
