Via Benalla and down the Midland Highway to Mansfield.
Drive times are a rough guide and depend on the stretch John picks for the day.
Coming from Mulwala, Tungamah or St James? The same rivers are the closest for you too, and the drive is about the same.
A day trip from Yarrawonga
From Yarrawonga, the Ovens, the King and the lower Kiewa are all about the same distance. A full day on any of them is an easy day trip.
If you usually fish for cod, trout on a fly is a big change. John supplies all the gear and shows you how to read a stream.
Making a weekend of it
For the smaller mountain rivers around Bright, Mount Beauty or Mansfield, stay a night and fish two days.
What's included
Every trip is a half or full day with John beside you on the water the whole time. Waders, boots, rods, reels and flies are all supplied, so there's nothing to pack but yourself. Catering is included, and dietary requirements are catered for.
Casting lessons in Benalla
Benalla is about 55 minutes away. A three hour casting lesson is the easiest way to learn the basics before you head for the river. More about casting lessons.
Plan your trip from Yarrawonga.
Tell John where you're coming from, which days suit and what you'd like to get out of the trip. He'll suggest the river and plan the day around it.
