Fly Fishing North East Victoria
Philip Weigall
Fly Fishing North East Victoria looks at the vast playground that is abound in the bottom corner of our great country. The lakes and streams of north-east Victoria provide some of Australia’s finest flyfishing for trout. In his latest book, Philip Weigall sets out to help anglers of all levels get the best from this remarkable area.
Although Philip Weigall has fished the north-east for most of his life, he hasn’t forgotten how baffling an unfamiliar fishery can be. With this perspective in mind, the book begins with a description of the area as a whole, including everything from the types of water you’re likely to encounter, through to fishing licence requirements and weather. Further in, there are overviews of each of the five major trout fishing catchments, followed by detailed water-by-water descriptions. These descriptions include a reliability rating, and best months to fish. Simple, handy maps back up the text.
For all its valuable how to/where to information, ‘Flyfishing North-east Victoria’ will also be enjoyed for its striking pictures and design. Philip Weigall is clearly smitten by this beautiful area and his book is as much an effort to capture the essence of north-east Victorian flyfishing as it is a guide.
Overall, this is a book that will be essential reading for those entirely new to the area, right through to experienced locals looking for another perspective – or perhaps a new tactic or two to try. Meanwhile, the book’s high quality full colour presentation makes it an ideal gift.

I operate this small business in an aim to provide fly fishers with the tools and materials needed for chasing trout in all waters. I choose the range of products to stock and sell from the items I use myself and items I just love. I am a real fly fishing tragic that has fully understood the concept that this is a sport of accessories. I am always looking for new toys and tools to take out onto the river and those that I can readily supply will be available here for you too.
I photograph every item I sell so you can see them in the listing as they will arrive. I think it is important to understand just what you are getting and not to rely on a stock photo that may not truly represent the actual item.
All feather products that are individually photographed are numbered so when you purchase that item, you get the exact feathers shown in the photos. I think it is important to get the item you see shown in the picture when choosing feathers.
Thanks for looking.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me by email and I will get back to you as soon as I am free, and not out on the river.
