Multi-Day Expedition

For the serious angler. Remote rivers, wild camping, and days of uninterrupted fishing in country few people ever see — including raft sections that float you through gorges and wilderness stretches no bank angler can reach. This is what Victoria's High Country is really about.

Raft Fishing Float trip on a Victorian river
Full day

Raft Fishing Float

Float Victoria's bigger rivers in a purpose-rigged raft, covering kilometres of water that bank anglers never reach. Cast to undercut banks, back-eddies, and holding lies that only the river reveals from the water.

Where we fish

Victoria's finest trout and bass country

From the cold, clear streams of the High Country to the broad, tannin-stained rivers of Gippsland, Victoria holds some of Australia's best wild trout and Australian bass fishing. I guide across the whole east of the state — wherever the fish are rising.

The Mitta Mitta, Ovens, Snowy, and East Gippsland rivers are all home water to me. I know where the big browns hold in summer, where the rainbows stack up in autumn, and which pools fish best after rain.

"Josh is a fantastic fly fishing guide with detailed knowledge of the local waterways and techniques. We've had a number of trips with Josh and couldn't be happier — he's a great teacher, very patient with rank beginners like us and has top notch equipment. Could not recommend him highly enough!"

"Absolutely fantastic shop for anything you need out in the bush! Josh has got everything you need for fishing and camping that the other stores in town don't have. I always save my money to spend it in his shop and buy local."
