Golden perch Fishing
Macquaria ambigua
Golden Perch, or “yellowbelly,” are iconic Australian inland sportfish. Found in rivers and reservoirs of the Murray-Darling Basin, they favor deep holes, snags, and flowing waters. Opportunistic feeders, they consume crustaceans, insects, and small fish. Celebrated for their fighting spirit, they are a cornerstone of native fishing culture.
