Fishing near Alice Springs, Northern Territory
Alice Springs sits in the arid Red Centre of the Northern Territory, far from the Top End's famous barramundi rivers. Fishing here revolves around the Todd River and a handful of creeks and impoundments in the surrounding desert landscape, with the Finke River and Ross River among the more notable waters within reach. It is a unique inland scene — modest by NT standards, but productive enough to draw locals and curious visitors.
