That is unless you are an avid lake fisherman who does not mind stalking fish in the wide range of lakes that we have available to us across Victoria. Winter is also a good time to start thinking about non fishing activities such as refining your casting technique, checking all your gear and tying a few flies. Remember that Paul Harris runs a casual fly tying session on the third Thursday of each month at the clubrooms from 7.30pm. Also stay tuned for details about our Winter Fly Tying Course that will commence in early August. We once again had great attendance at both our May Members night and General Meeting with our guest speaker Travis Dowling (Director of Fisheries Victoria) drawing a strong crowd. -

Chapter 3. Landscape, People and Economy
Chapter 3. Landscape, people and economy Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning 3. Landscape, people and economy Victoria’s North and Murray Water Resource Plan applies to surface water resources in the Northern Victoria and Victorian Murray water resource plan areas, and groundwater resources in Goulburn-Murray water resource plan area. This chapter provides a brief description of the landscape, people and economic drivers in the water resource plan areas. Working rivers The rivers of this water resource plan area provide many environmental, economic, and social benefits for Victorian communities. Most of northern Victoria’s rivers have been modified from their natural state to varying degrees. These modifications have affected hydrologic regimes, physical form, riparian vegetation, water quality and instream ecology. Under the Basin Plan it is not intended that these rivers and streams be restored to a pre-development state, but that they are managed as ‘working rivers’ with agreed sustainable levels of modification and use and improved ecological values and functions. 3.1 Features of Victorian Murray water resource plan area The Victorian Murray water resource plan area covers a broad range of aquatic environments from the highlands in the far east, to the Mallee region in the far west of the state. There are several full river systems in the water resource plan area, including the Kiewa and Mitta Mitta rivers. Other rivers that begin in different water resource plan areas converge with the River Murray in the Victorian Murray water resource plan area. There are a significant number of wetlands in this area, these wetlands are managed by four catchment management authorities (CMAs): Goulburn Broken, Mallee CMAs, North Central and North East and their respective land managers. -
Prospecting in Victoria
PROSPECTING IN VICTORIA 1. What is a Miner’s Right? A Miner’s Right is a permit to prospect for minerals on unreserved Crown Land or Private Land where the permission of the landowner has been granted. 2. What is prospecting / fossicking? Prospecting involves the use of metal detectors, hand tools, pans or simple sluices in the search for gold and gemstones. 3. Why is a Miner’s Right required to prospect for minerals? All minerals belong to the Crown, even on private land. A Miner’s Right transfers the ownership of any minerals found whilst prospecting, to the holder of the Miners Right. 4. Who needs a Miner’s Right? Anyone searching for minerals needs to have an exploration licence, a mining licence or a Miner’s Right. 5. Does that mean that a Miner’s Right is required even if you are fossicking on your own land? Yes. 6. How much is a Miner’s Right? Refer to Earth Resources Fees and Charges 7. How long does a Miner’s Right last? You can purchase a Miner’s Right for 2 or 10 years, but not exceeding 10. 8. Do pensioners, people who are unemployed or people with disabilities receive any concessional discount if they purchase a Miner’s Right? No. 9. Do hobbyists or gemstone seekers require a Miner’s Right? Yes. 10. If a family goes away prospecting and fossicking does each family member need a Miner’s Right? All adults who intend to fossick must have a Miner’s Right. Children under supervision of an adult with a Miner’s Right do not need a Miner’s Right of their own. -
