Delatite River

Flowing through Victoria, Australia, Delatite River is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Delatite River hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Delatite River can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.
