Mallacoota Inlet, Mallacoota

A large estuary surrounded by forested country, mud and sand bottom. Consists of two lakes joined by a narrow section of drowned river bed. A popular angling and tourist resort with camping facilities, accommodation and boat launching. Most of the perimeter of both lakes is a National Park in which camping is not permitted, but landing places with toilets and fireplaces are available (some of these landing areas are well known for their Goana populations, with some animals joining picnic parties for the scraps). Contains bream, flathead (some very big fish), luderick, mullet, trevally, sand whiting, estuary perch, garfish, tailor, and mulloway in some years. Fish can be caught throughout the year but June to November is best for bream, and November to March for flathead. Open to professional fishing. Fishing methods, conditions and success vary considerably, and local information should always be obtained on the current fishing scene.

Notes: An Amateur Fishing Licence is not required to fish the lower lake of Mallacoota Inlet but is needed in all inflowing waters. The lower lake is open to the use of a six metre bait net by the holder of an Amateur Fishing Licence (or person otherwise exempt).
