About Bell River
Bell River, in New South Wales, Australia, is a river where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Bell River is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques
- For Murray cod
Target structure like fallen trees, rocky outcrops, and undercut banks, as Murray cod are ambush predators.
- For Common carp
Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.
- For European perch
Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
