About Loddon River
Running through Victoria, Australia, Loddon River is the kind of river that fishes well at the right water level. Drop a lure or fly into the bubble line at the head of a pool and let the current swing it past holding fish. Long, slow glides at Loddon River hold the bigger fish; the broken water above and below holds the smaller, more aggressive ones. Stay quiet on the bank — river fish are easily spooked.

Fishing Techniques
- For Tench
Pre-baiting your swim with particles like hemp or corn can significantly improve your chances of attracting tench and holding them in your fishing area.
- For Murray cod
Target structure like fallen trees, rocky outcrops, and undercut banks, as Murray cod are ambush predators.
- For Bidyan perch
Target Bidyan perch around submerged structure like logs and weed beds, and vary your retrieve speed until you find what triggers a strike.
