The Bemm River is a productive coastal fishery located in East Gippsland, Victoria, approximately a four-and-a-half-hour drive from Melbourne. It's a shallow estuarine system, with much of the waterway averaging less than two meters in depth, known for hosting competitive fishing tournaments and offering a diverse range of saltwater and estuarine species. The river flows into Sydenham Inlet, creating a dynamic environment where anglers target everything from prized black bream to large flathead.
