Fish for your own fresh Salmon! 😍
Felly went fishing at Buxton Trout & Salmon Farm for her own Salmon Sashimi! Entry fee per adult which includes rod rental and fish food is AUD 12.
🐟There were multiple fishing ponds in the farm and they were sorted according to size and type of trout.
😬 You won’t end up getting a fish too big for your consumption and psssttt if you’re a beginner like Felly, then smaller fish would be easier to catch!
Put on the bait 🎣 and off you go! The fish were very active in the pond and within the first ten minutes of trial and error, she got her first fish. And then 2nd fish shortly after!
💰 Prices are according to the type of fish and weighed per kg. (4th pic) Cleaning of the fish is included.
She got two rainbow trouts (small size) and because she wanted it to be sashimi, that was additional $5/fish. Yummy 😋!
📍just under 2 hours drive from #melbourne CBD, head on to this unique adventure that both adults and kids will sure enjoy! 😉
Visiting Buxton Trout & Salmon Farm offers a refreshing break from the usual day trips near Melbourne. What I found especially enjoyable was how accessible the fishing experience was — you don’t need to be an expert to catch fish here. The ponds are cleverly sorted by fish size and type, so beginners can start with smaller trout that are less intimidating and easier to handle. From personal experience, having the bait ready and being patient is key because the fish are quite lively and active. Within minutes, you can feel the excitement of hooking your first catch, and the farm staff are very helpful in guiding you if you’re new to fishing. The pricing per kilogram varies depending on the type of fish, with options like rainbow trout, brook trout, golden trout, and Atlantic salmon, which provides various choices to suit your taste and budget. An added bonus is the on-site fish cleaning service included in the price, making the process hassle-free. If you want to enjoy your catch as sashimi, they offer preparation for a small additional fee of $5 per fish. It’s a unique, rewarding experience to taste the freshest fish you've caught yourself — a perfect outing for food lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
