Glenelg River - Isle Of Bags Ramp
Glenelg River - Isle Of Bags Ramp
The Isle of Bags ramp is a boat launching point on the Glenelg River, situated a short distance upstream from the double concrete ramp in the township of Nelson, Victoria.
It serves as one of several access points along the lower Glenelg, allowing anglers and recreational boaters to get onto the water without lengthy travel under the river's strict speed limits.
The ramp takes its name from the nearby Isle of Bags, an island with a notable history — explorer Thomas Mitchell named it after local Gunditjmara people took a stash of flour he had left there.
From this stretch of river, boaters can head north under the Nelson bridge into the gorge-like upper reaches, or south toward the estuary, where bream, estuary perch, and mulloway are among the target species.
