East Gippsland Basin
This is a large area with numerous rivers flowing through heavily
forested country. Access is difficult. Freshwater fishing is
generally poor, with limited numbers of larger-sized angling species
such as trout and Australian bass in only a few rivers. Most angling
is done in the large estuaries. These carry a wide variety of fish,
which can be caught throughout the year. There is little
accommodation or camping facilities except along the highway and at
Mallacoota and Sydenham Inlets. The most productive angling water is
Mallacoota Inlet. Despite the presence of some natural populations
of trout in several streams, the stocking of trout or any other fish
not naturally occurring in this drainage basin is not permitted in
public or private waters. The intention of the Department is to
retain in as natural form as possible the native fish fauna of one
of the only major relatively unspoilt areas of Victoria. The basin
is a high fire risk area, and as many fishing locations are isolated
with only one means of entry/exit, attention should be paid to
warning signs, radio bulletins or signs of major fire outbreaks. The
area is isolated and no unnecessary risks should be taken in
attempts to reach some of the fishing locations. Fishing trips to
some of the locations require a 4WD vehicle and reference to
detailed topographical maps.
