Ovens River Basin
The rivers all flow north, from heavily forested mountain country
through extensive river flats to the Murray River. Trout populations
in most streams are self-sustaining and are able to meet angling
pressure. Brown trout are widely distributed throughout the system
and grow to a larger size than rainbow trout which are most abundant
in the upper reaches. Small redfin are common in the lower reaches
of the rivers with some Murray cod closer to the Murray River. Small
river blackfish are common in many rivers, Macquarie perch are still
occasionally caught, and catches of golden perch are being reported
from the lower reaches, the result of stocking of the species into
Lake Mulwala and the river below Wangaratta. The best trout streams
are the Buffalo
Buckland and
King Rivers. The
Ovens River below the
Murray Valley Highway is the best area for redfin.
