About Yea River
Yea River cuts through Victoria, Australia and offers classic river fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at Yea River — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

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.
