The Glenelg River, located in south-west Victoria, is a premier fishing destination renowned for its expansive and productive estuary system. This waterway winds through the protected forests and dramatic limestone cliffs of the Lower Glenelg National Park for over 60 kilometers, making it one of the longest tidal river systems in the state. The estuary is consistently deep and wide, with depths reaching up to nine meters or more in sections downstream from Nelson. The system is teeming with life, supporting a rich diversity of birdlife, mammals, and a robust fishery centered on native species like bream, estuary perch, and mulloway. The river offers a mix of land-based and boat-based angling opportunities, with extensive access points along the Portland-Nelson Road and Wanwin Road.
