Yarriambiack Creek

Yarriambiack Creek is a stream flowing through Victoria, Australia. River fishing rewards anglers who learn to read current — fish hold in the seams between fast and slow water, behind rocks and submerged logs, and at the heads and tails of pools. At Yarriambiack Creek, working a lure or fly down-and-across the current usually outperforms casting straight upstream. Higher water concentrates fish; clear, low water makes them spookier.

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 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.

• For Golden perch

  Golden perch often hold near structure such as fallen trees or rock bars, so focus your fishing efforts in these areas, and consider using lures that deflect off the structure to entice strikes.
