Water-based activities at South Australian reservoirs have taken another step forward with access to Warren, Bundaleer and South Para reservoirs expected in the coming months, and shoreline fishing to be allowed at Myponga in time for summer.

More than 90,000 native fingerlings are now exploring the depths of Myponga Reservoir, released last week as part of the efforts to improve the fishing experience at Myponga and boost recreational activities at reservoir reserves across South Australia.

The fish have really been biting at Warren Reservoir Reserve for the Kenny family.The Gawler family, dad Paul and daughters Makayla, 9, and Dannielle, 12, have between them caught more than 80 fish on their regular visits to the picturesque reserve just 5km from Williamstown.

Families are taking advantage of the safe and easy to access reservoir reserves to spark new on water adventures this summer.

The devastation and heartbreak that has come from fires impacting South Australia this summer is felt by us all.
