The inland waters of Victoria offer a diverse array of freshwater fishing over an equally diverse geographical landscape. From vast dry plains to the west, where there are few rivers and lakes to some of the countries highest peaks to the east. Freshwater fishing in Victoria is extremely popular with an ever-increasing band of anglers heading out on weekends to tackle some of our best native sportfish such as Murray cod or yellowbelly, game fish such as trout or Chinook salmon or simply after a good feed of tasty redfin. For the most part, many of the waters listed in this book are within a relatively easy short drive from Melbourne, Victoria¿s capital city. Fishing Atlas for Victorian Inland Waters illustrates and lists the species of fish most likely to be encountered across the state, while the text for each catchment discusses the general environment, lists the size and type of water, the most common species available plus average size of those fish. It also lists the most popular angling techniques and discusses access points along with detailed maps of the area discussed. Fishing Atlas for Victorian Inland Waters takes the accumulated angling knowledge of not only the listed authors but that of other experienced anglers and lays out in clear and concise detail what you need to know about a region or waterway to be able to fish with confidence and catch fish in any of the waters listed. This book will make your angling decisions easier and more successful. Features - Detailed maps of basins - Where to fish - When to fish - What to fish for - How to catch fish - All popular species illustrated

In every coastal town in Australia, there's a bait shop and a boat ramp, and, in garages around the country, fishing rods are strung up waiting for their next outing. Many of us have a special fishing spot, and families pass on tips from generation to generation and exchange fishy tales of amazing catches and near misses. Bringing her personal passion for throwing in a line, author Anna Clark celebrates the enduring pleasure of fishing in "The Catch: The Story of Fishing in Australia". This book charts the history of fishing, from the first known accounts of Indigenous fishing and early European encounters with Australia's waters to the latest fishing fads; from the introduction of trout and fly fishing to the challenges of balancing needs of commercial and recreational fishers. Fishing personality Rob Paxevanos, host of "Fishing Australia", says that "The Catch" is 'by far my best fishing read to date'.

Once the domain of anglers with big expensive game boats, game fishing today is possible in even a trailer-boat. As a result, more and more anglers are discovering the delights of offshore fishing and catching huge fish from small boats. Armed with THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO GAME FISHING, you will know how to find, identify, hook and ultimately catch (or release) the game fish in our waters, from huge black marlin to small tuna ... and everything in between. Divided into two parts, THE COMPLETE GUIDE begins by describing in detail and revealing in photographs the characteristics and behaviour of 30 game-fish. The more knowledge you have about the habits and behaviour of the fish you are hunting, the more success you will have in finding it, enticing it to take the bait and landing it. The second half of the book covers the equipment and techniques needed to be a successful angler. From buying the right game reel and fishing line, to being shown in step-by-step photographs how to rig a trolling lure or make a wind-on leader, everything is covered for setting up a safe and successful game fishing boat. This book is also about learning and appreciating the ocean and the miraculous life that exists below the surface. Today, game fishing is as much about tagging and releasing fish so they can be tracked for scientific research as bringing home the catch to eat. There is a chapter on photography so a record can be kept of the fish you′ve battled with and landed, as well as a recipe section for those fish caught for the table.
