Nice cod

Had some luck a few months ago catching this cod.

It was one off the biggest cod I've caught..

It was released and swam away healthy.

Caught on a yabby floating down a sandbar in the middle off a morning..

Cheers,bm

I've spent years ...

Re: Boat hire for island drops

What Gultch said about Hogan with that very small beach. But there is not a whole lot else on there.
