Free Camping from Copeton Dam to Cangai Bridge | Cod Fishing & Campfire Cooking in NSW

We’re back for another epic week of free camping and Aussie adventure! This time, we kick things off at the legendary Copeton Dam, home of the elusive Murray Cod. While waiting for a bite, we fire up the camp oven and soak in some next-level sunsets you don’t want to miss. Then it's off the beaten track to Cangai Bridge Free Camp on the stunning Mann River, a hidden gem with old-school outback vibes and a rich farming history. 🎣 We finally land an Eastern Freshwater Cod, but things take a wild turn when overnight rainfall threatens to trap us on the wrong side of the river 😳🌧️ In this Episode: *Camp oven Cooking - Brisket *Free camping New England Table lands *Fishing for Cod *Free Camping Mann river *Northern Rivers Flooding CampGround one: Copeton Dam Eastern Foreshore Free camp https://directory.fullrangecamping.co...
