About Macquarie Rivulet
Running through New South Wales, Australia, Macquarie Rivulet 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 Macquarie Rivulet 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 Sand sillago
Use a slow, steady retrieve with slight twitches to entice strikes, especially when using soft plastics near the bottom.
- For Dusky flathead
Target sandy or muddy bottoms near structure like weed beds or drop-offs, and remember to let the lure sink to the bottom before starting your retrieve.
- For Southern black bream
Use light line and fluorocarbon leaders for stealth, as black bream can be easily spooked in clear water.
