🔔 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝗖𝘂𝘁𝗼𝘂𝘁?

In the old shearing days, "cutting out" a shed meant the job was done — the last sheep shorn, the last fleece rolled, the last bale pressed. Traditionally it was marked with a bell, rung out across the yards to let the whole shed know the run was finished.

This 12 September, we're reviving that tradition with our own Cutout Celebration — Cocktails in the Yard. And the bell's ringing again: this time on bookings, not sheep.

⏰ 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆

Once that bell rings out tonight, that's it — bookings close today, Friday 4 September. Join us Saturday 12 September for our Open Day (10am–3pm, $20 adult / $50 family) and the evening Cocktails in the Yard (5:30pm, 18+, $100pp — includes two cocktails, food and entertainment).

Coming from Coleambally, Griffith or Darlington Point? Our bus (departs 4:30pm, returns from Toganmain 10:30pm) is now $10pp, booked through the same link.

Book before the bell: https://toganmain.org.au/cocktails

We can't wait to ring it with you 🐑

🐟 MURRAY COD SEASON IS NOW CLOSED🐟

From 1 September, the Murray cod closed season begins — an important time of year that gives our iconic Murray cod the opportunity to breed, spawn and protect the next generation.💙

During breeding season, Murray cod become focused on spawning and guarding their nests. Giving these fish the space they need without being deliberately targeted helps protect eggs and young fish and supports healthy cod populations for generations to come.

🎣 Why the closed season matters:

* Gives Murray cod the opportunity to breed with minimal disturbance.
* Helps protect spawning fish, nests, eggs and young cod.
* Supports strong and sustainable wild populations.
* Helps ensure there are Murray cod in our rivers for our kids — and their kids — to enjoy.

The Murray cod closed season in NSW runs from 1 September to 30 November inclusive. During this period, Murray cod must not be deliberately targeted, and any Murray cod accidentally caught while fishing for other species must be immediately released with the least possible harm

💛 Let them breed. Let them grow. Let’s protect their future.

As anglers, we all have a role to play in looking after the river and the incredible fish that call it home.

🎣🐟Respect the river. Respect the fish. 🎣🐟

🎣🎣It’s Murray Cod closed season! 🎣 🎣

As we head into the warmer months, it’s a vital time for our iconic Murray Cod as they enter their breeding season. During this period, the fish are busy spawning and guarding their nests to ensure the next generation survives.

💥Why does the closed season matter?💥
By not targeting or disturbing them during this time, we are directly contributing to the health and sustainability of our rivers. Even if you are practicing catch-and-release, targeting cod during the closed season can cause significant stress and disrupt their nesting behavior, which puts the entire spawn at risk.

🐟Let’s do our part to protect these legends of the river.🐟

Please respect the closure, give them the space they need, and help ensure there are plenty of cod for all of us to enjoy when the season reopens!
