Easter cod
Got away up to Nyah easter weekend for some camping and fishing.
Arrived around 9am friday morning.. after a 4 hour drive. First thing was first and that was to set my rods up before I even thought about pulling the swag out :tongue:
First fish came at around 2:30pm on a large chunk of chicken breast measuring a nice 65cm

Nothing after that until the next morning when i reluctantly rose at 5am, quick bacon sandwhich (or three) and I was out on the water in the kayak at 5:30am. paddled upstream (which I regretted after 50m) and anchored up in a few holes, nothing on bait or lure until i was drifting back downstream to camp with a lure trolling behind. I was sitting back eyes closed almost asleep and BOOM I was on, boy did i wake up quick. I didnt get a chance to measure but he was mid 60s again.

Later that day I was sitting around camp drowning a grub and a few beers in at this stage when I was on again! the cod hit my bait so hard my bells flew about 5m in the are and straight into the drink :down: He fought harder then the last two and came in shorter then them both at 63cm

Good work Johnny, some nice fish there, :a_goodjob: cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish
But it's an even better feeling releasing them
