Mulwala Lake, Yarrawonga
- Surface area: 4,590 ha
- Capacity: 117,500 ML
Also called Yarrawonga Weir. A shallow lake surrounded by forest
and grazing land. A regulating and diversion storage. Occasionally
drained for maintenance works, but during the last drainage in
1988-89, a coffer dam was built to reduce the level of drainage
required for future maintenance and major works programs. A popular
boating and boat fishing lake containing mostly redfin to 2.2 kg,
Murray cod, tench, goldfish, carp, golden perch and some river
blackfish. Murray cod fishing is very good at times, but varies from
year to year, and golden perch fishing is improving. Yabbies are the
best bait for redfin. Certain areas of the lake are in New South
Wales, where an inland angling license is not required. Victorian
fishing regulations apply upstream of the Murray Valley Highway
bridge over the Ovens River arm. Between this bridge and the State
border all Victorian regulations apply except in the case of size
limits for Murray cod and trout. At present in this area the size
limit is 25 cm for trout and there is no size limit for Murray cod.
Both Victoria and NSW are proposing a 50 cm limit for Murray cod.
