Question 1

Where is Macleay River found?

Accepted Answer

Look in Kempsey, New South Wales: the surface sits low ground up. The nearest towns are Moonee Beach, 75 km, and Emerald Beach, 80 km.

Question 2

How deep does Macleay River get?

Accepted Answer

We cannot give a depth for this water. Let the shoreline tell you: back eddies gather food and fish together. Where the bank steepens, the water usually follows.

Question 3

Can Macleay River be fished all year?

Accepted Answer

It does not freeze here. March through May and September through November are the strong stretches. The season here follows water temperature, not the calendar.

Question 4

Is Macleay River open to the public?

Accepted Answer

Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Whatever the bank status, the state fishing licence still applies. Access can change hands, so check before a long drive.

Question 5

Where can I park at Macleay River?

Accepted Answer

Mapping shows no car park within easy reach of the bank. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Goodwill keeps these banks open, so use it.

Question 6

What else is within reach of Macleay River?

Accepted Answer

You would be travelling a fair way to find the next one. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. A short move can change the day completely.
