Targeting Murray cod in their home waters in the Murray river is without a doubt one of my favourites types of fishing. I think there are few fish that provide such a challenge with many angler devoting their whole lives to catching them. I’ll run you through some of the tips and tactics that I find successful while fishing...
It’s been interesting watching the take up in fishing for bigger Cod in southern Impoundments over winter. Slowly but surely the word has leaked out in regard to the opportunity’s that present in places other than Copeton Dam in northern NSW.

The Goulburn river starts south of Eildon around a little town called Woods point, from here it travels 654 kilometres through Lake Eildon, Alexandra, Seymour, Nagambie, Murchison, Shepparton to the Murray river around Echuca.

It’s well known that Golden Perch are easiest to locate and catch when the water temperature is in the 18-22 degree range. When you start getting down to 14 degrees its just as challenging as trying to push...

How many places can you think of where you can go fishing for a day and be in the mix to catch trophy Golden Perch, Trout, Murray Cod and Red Fin?
