The Camden Haven River starts high on the Great Dividing Range running east down through a picturesque valley and the historic river town of Kendall.The river then flows into Watson Taylor Lake, Queens Lake and Gogleys Lagoon before entering the Pacific Ocean at Laurieton, Dunbogan and North Haven.

The Camden Haven area is about four hours drive north of Sydney. Fishing is particularly popular from October through to June each year with peaks during Christmas and Easter. Water and air temperatures are generally mild during winter and very pleasant during summer.

The river has a wide range of fishing opportunities from freshwater bass in the upper reaches to estuarine species such as bream, flathead and luderick throughout the lakes.
