Get Christmas sorted early with the gift of fishing © Department of Primary Industries

Why not give your loved one or best friend the gift of fishing in one of our 63 stocked impoundments by buying them a SIP (Stocked Impoundment Permit) this Christmas?

• The impoundments are stocked with native fish specifically for recreational fishing.
• The fees go towards maintaining and enhancing recreational fishing in stocked impoundments.
• All persons over the age of 18 must hold a permit when line fishing in SIPS impoundments.
• You're entitled to a discount if you have a Queensland Government Seniors Card, Pensioner Concession Card or Health Care Card.
• You must carry your permit (digital or paper) with you when fishing in a stocked impoundment and produce it on request by fisheries officers.
• Check out our interactive search tool for impoundments that require a SIP.
