About the region
Lake Leake is the name of both a lake and a small township in the eastern highlands of Tasmania and has a population of 176. Back in the 1880s, named after Charles Henry Leake, a member of the Tasmanian Legislative council, this lake was created to supply water to the township of Campbell Town. Today it is a premium trout water, regularly stocked with Brown and Rainbow Trout, offering some of Tasmania's best early and late season wet fly-fishing.
