subject: Want To Come Fishing In Bright? Let Me Tell You A Little About This Beautiful Place [print this page] Who doesn't love a quiet afternoon sitting on the banks of your favorite river, rod in hand with an esky and a few brews. This is part of the Australian lifestyle, and personally, fishing in bright is what does it for me. With two popular rivers flowing through the area, there is always a chance to walk home with a proud catch to boot. Lets not forget the lakes as well, where a combination of bait fishers, and fly fishermen can be found all year round all after than elusive big catch.
The Keiwa River presents one of the easiest to access spots to chase a catch, however it is on the opposite side of the Tawonga Gap. Although this river is usually most popular with spin fishing in bright, it can be hard at times to find your spot, if it hasn't been taken already. Located in the center of the Kiewa Valley, encompassing views over the imposing bulk of Mt Bogong, this is a peaceful place to cast a few lines in, with the temptation of bringing home a few Brown of Rainbow Trout being all too great.
Ranging from being wild in its upper reaches, to being calm and tranquil further down the valley, the Ovens River really does suit all kinds of people who are looking to go fishing in Bright. Further down the valley, fly fishing conditions are ideal, situated amongst the trees that line the river, you can easy blend in with the flies from the trees, and snag a good catch by dropping a few flies..
Closer towards the mountains where the Ovens River tends to become more rapid, is much more suited to those who want to cast a few lures against the current, or even to drop some bait. My favorite method involves casting a small hook with a berley container full of maggots. This method proves to be too tempting for those 2 - 3 pound trout, and a good days catch is always a good reward.
Lake Buffalo is rather secluded, situated behind the Mt Buffalo Massif, and provides a bounty of opportunity for Fly Fisherman, and those who want to bait cast and enjoy a quiet day in a beautiful and remote location. Popular in most seasons for Fly Fisherman, this is one of those places that your grandfather told you about (we all have one of these stories right?). As this area is not as frequented as the nearby Kiewa and Ovens Rivers, this is one of those spots that really allows you to take in the peace and tranquility.
Of course, I can not speak about fishing in Bright without talking about getting a fishing license. In Victoria, it is a legal requirement that all people who fish in Victorian rivers and seas, need a fishing license. The good news is that a license is cheap to obtain, for one days fishing, it will cost you less than a few loaves of bread.
You may be asking, what exactly is the attraction that those feel who love to go fishing in Bright? My idea of a great weekend away in Bright after a god catch involves a few good mates, an esky with a few brews, and more than anything, that kind of recharge that you get knowing that you are getting away from it all, in one of the most pristine places in Victoria. Yet, another outstanding reason to come and see Bright Victoria.
