This is the fishing section of the guide, built around one stocked, connected system: Lake Nagambie and the Goulburn River. Start with fishing the Nagambie Lakes for the overview, then the hot spots guide for exactly where to put a lure.
By species: Murray cod is the headline act, with its own season opening guide for December. Golden perch, known to most locals as yellowbelly, carry the fishing through the rest of the year, and Murray crays open a short winter season of their own.
For the practical side: the boat ramps and zones guide covers launching and the lake rules, kids' fishing spots covers short sessions with children, and the licence and rules guide covers who needs a licence and what it costs. Gearing up? Start with buying your first cod setup and must-have lures for cod opening.
Before any trip, check what's on the lake this weekend, because regattas close sections of the water, and check current rules with the VFA.
