About Morwell River

Flowing through Victoria, Australia, Morwell River is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Morwell River hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Morwell River can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.

Fishing Techniques

  • For Common carp

    Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.

  • For Brown trout

    When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

  • For Rainbow trout

    Vary your retrieve speed when using spinners to find what triggers a strike; sometimes a slow, steady retrieve works best, while other times a faster, erratic retrieve is more effective.
