Registration starts from 7am on the Friday and costs $25 per person, with $5 from each entry being donated to the Crookwell Community Trust.

There's $20,000 worth of prizes and the great news is that you don't even need to catch a single fish to be in with a chance to win the major prize, as it is drawn as a raffle from the entry forms.

You do need to be present on the Sunday afternoon when the raffle is drawn to claim the prize.

The waters of Wyangala are renowned for their enormous Murray cod.

You can catch good-sized golden and silver perch here, and if you are lucky you might even reel in a colossal catfish or two.

Native fish are all catch and release with photographic entries, so you need to ensure you have a digital camera (or phone) and brag mat.

There are some whopping big carp lurking in the depths, which are classed as pest fish, so if you want to enjoy some angling and help the environment at the same time, have a go at targeting this species.

Just be sure not to return them to the water!

There are prizes for longest carp and biggest bag of carp caught over the weekend.

The Bigga General Store is a short walk away and is open seven days a week, offering a great range of groceries and takeaways. The friendly staff also provide ice, fishing gear, fishing licences and bait.
