PHOTO GALLERY
The Tasmanian Trout Expo is an event for all fisherpersons from the very young to the older generation and the professional. It is an event to promote our beautiful state, Tasmania, as the Fishing Capital of Australia, and Cressy as the Gateway to Trout Fishing Paradise. The expo also provides information on where and how to go Trout Fishing in Tasmania.

The Expo will be held in the grounds of Cressy District High School and will showcase products needed to thoroughly enjoy the experience of trout fishing. 

                                                     IN THE STADIUM

 There will be fashion parades presented by the students of Cressy District High School
 
Trade stalls selling fishing gear, soft plastics and other fishing related items

DVD video screenings on all types of fishing and book stalls to browse for that hard-to-find fishing book.

Outside on the oval will be more exhibitors with products needed to go on that fishing trip, from fishing tackle and camping needs to all-terrain bikes, boats, kayaks, outboard motors and more.

            

A food court will also be provided to help keep everybody happy and well fed.

At nearby BRUMBYS CREEK there will be a Fishing Competition with a major draw of $10,000 for the TAGGED TROUT. There will also be FOUR TAGGED RAINBOW TROUT and other prizes 

At Cressy District High School there will also be an Arts Competition in the Big Fish Arcade with participation from across the community.

See the Arts comp Page for more info.

The Taste of Trout has become a popular event and this year we hope to tempt the palette once again with some saucy offerings. The Longford Fishing Club will once again contribute strongly with their delicious smoked trout.      

                                 A free bus serice is also being provided to take patrons from venue to venue.
               Come and enjoy the country hospitality of the Expo and also try your luck at the Fishing Competition.

                         Camping is available during the Expo at the Cressy Recreational Grounds.

              For other accommodation in and around Cressy, see our LINKS page 

***There is NO CAMPING at Brumbys Creek and the gates will be shut on Friday and Saturday nights.***
This has become necessary because of Anglers taking fish before the event, that have been especially released for the Expo, thus depriving those that have paid their entry fee to the competition of those catches.

                       The gates at Brumbys Creek will be opened at 7am each day of the Expo 

                                                      and the competition starts at 8am
