Cairn Curran Reservoir

Cairn Curran Reservoir covers an area of almost 20 km² and has an average depth of 20 metres. It is located on the Loddon River 10 km west of Maldon and 50 km South West of Bendigo Victoria. The reservoir is used to supply to irrigated properties along the Loddon River and was constructed between 1947 and 1956.


Fishing at Cairn Curran is mixed as it has stocking of brown trout and native fish including Murray cod and golden perch. Reports are most anglers target Brown Trout (winter time) and Redfin (summer time). Murray Cod is a rare catch and this fishery does not seem to suit them. Carp are present in large numbers so lure fishing is popular as this method catches most species present but not Carp who prefer bait, notably worms.
