About This Spot

Local knowledge & spot details

The Nelson Town Ramp and Foreshore is a prime fishing location along the serene waters of the Glenelg River in Nelson, VIC. This picturesque estuary setting offers anglers the chance to target a diverse range of species, including Bream, Estuary Perch, Mulloway, Yellow-eye Mullet, and Flounder. A leisurely afternoon or early morning session is often rewarding, especially around dawn and dusk when fish are most active. Summer edges can produce excellent results, particularly following rain, which can invigorate the river's ecosystem. Accessible by bank, jetty, or the boat ramp, this spot caters to various fishing styles, from bait fishing to lure techniques. Just be mindful of the tide movement and wind, as they can impact water clarity and fish behaviour; keeping an eye on these conditions will enhance your fishing experience.
