Where to catch redclaw at Boynedale on Awonga Dam

There are two boat ramps, one just outside the free camp area and one inside. Best place to put the pots is 'In the water' :-) seriously anywhere away from the front of the camp area. We did well with some large specimens on the opposite side - up the little creeks.

hi
I was at awonga dam a few days ago and only managed a few small red law as the water is to cold the best place is up in newzealnd Bay Area as it is a bit warmer up in the shallows

Hi Kc,
I had a crack at the redclaw last summer. It's definitely better going around the boynedale area rather than other parts of the dam (as in some rather than none). Don't expect too much though, the numbers and size just aren't there. Most success was in around 5ft of water. I would suggest Fairbain dam at Emerald. I have heard that the dam at Bilo goes well for the claw.
On the up side, Boynedale is a top spot to camp. Have fun.
