The release of Australian bass fingerlings will also be considered.<\/p>\n<p>Anglers are reminder that they need to hold a Victorian recreational fishing licence to fish in Hazelwood Pondage, including the channel, unless exempt.<\/p>\n<h2>Photos<\/h2>\n<p>I would also like to remind everyone to keep those photos coming in of your big catch!
