Fishing near Mildura, Victoria

Mildura sits on the Murray River in far north-west Victoria, at the heart of the Sunraysia region. The Murray is the main draw — a wide, slow-moving river lined with red gum snags, sandy beaches and deep bends that hold Murray cod, golden perch and silver perch. Kings Billabong, Lake Gol Gol and a string of nearby lakes round out the local freshwater scene, making this one of inland Australia's most productive fishing destinations.
