Native Fishing: Murray Cod And Yellowbelly Turn It On

After a slow start the native fish really turned it on, with both Murray cod and Yellowbelly (Golden Perch) willingly hitting my lures. My dream run of catching big chunky yellowbelly continues, AND I caught my biggest Murray cod of the season.

Wow great vid

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate.

Wow what a great session! Caught on such a variety of lures as well. It's so awesome to see the yellas making a comeback over your way thanks to fisheries. Well done mate

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. I'm absolutely loving the yellowbelly being back in the river. Haha They're such an awesome fish, and they taste good. LOL

Warm conditions coupled with ample water in the systems will always yield good results.

What a great advert for Tackle Club and what had to be a fun session. Couldn't agree more about keeping fish, if you can't handle them right, no need to keep them for a feed. Awesome job once again Robbie!

Thanks Mick. Yep, I got the trifecta. I'm absolutely loving the yellas at the moment.

Them fish got same power in their tails when u let them go . Same nice solid yellowbelly u got nice healthy cod as well .

Thanks mate. They really are very powerful fish aren't they.

[@tworodsdownunder]

If you attach a jig spinner to the lipless crankbait you can move them through the water a bit better avoiding more snags and the yellas / cod love them even more! 😉

[@papeep2694]

Wow, on the slomo release I got a good look at the one yellowbelly. That one was so thick and plump. Fillets would have been massive. Great video.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, it sure would have been an ideal yellowbelly got the plate.

[@TheCaptainbeefylog]

Panacea ( panna-seer) - a cure or remdey for all difficulties or disease. Basically the lure is meant to catch everything, at all times lol. That last cod might not have been big to you or me, but I bet he thought he was a lot bigger.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. I will try to remember that next time I use it. That last fish may have had eyes bigger than his belly I think. LOL

Ripper trout cod .😊

Wow Robbie caught a 68cm Murray cod last night here in howlong would love to catch a yellow belly as after being here now for 5 weeks the Murray cod are getting to much just wondering if you could point me in a great direction for yellow belly thanks Robbie Merry Xmas and happy new year to U and your family Also if U have time and it's not to much of a hassle could you please in one of your videos wish my fiance DINGO happy 50th birthday for sat the 16th he loves your videos and asks me every night has Robbie released new video thankyou❤❤❤

WOW well done on your ripper 68cm Murray cod. If you're in Howlong, I would recommend Lake Hume for yellowbelly. There's a lot in there and some of them are enormous. Please wish your partner Dingo a very happy 50th for this weekend. Mine is less than 2 years away. Haha

Hi mate I am in the Ovens River system, but from where you are you would probably be better off heading to the Goulburn or the Broken. They're both great cod fisheries too.

[@glenbaker4024]

Great stuff mate, time to fit an esky to the bike?

Hi Alma, sometimes I travel a long way and other times I'm fishing a minute or two from home. The furthest that I have travelled was either Mildura or Lake Cargelligo.

Hello robbie, i would love to know what are the best sized lures for specifically yella. Its almost xmas and i havent asked mum for anything so any size recommendations would help a lot, thanks and awesome video

I didn't think the lipless crankbait would last long. Snaggy things.

That they are. Best used from a boat... With a lure retriever. LOL They're deadly on fish though, especially yellowbelly and redfin.

[@jaxsonlestrange4103]

Hey mate I’ve been dying to do some river fishing as of late but haven’t really done it any tips on where to start?

[@robbiefishing]

G'day mate that's a very broad question. The Murray River and almost all of its tributary rivers have Murray cod in them. They are spread right throughout the Murray Darling basin.

[@Ckktopa]

Hey Robbie, we should really rename the Trout Cod, I believe it used to be called a Blue Cod.... The fish should be named with local language not overseas terms like trout. You could become the ambassador to rename this fish. @VIC FISH - get on-board!

[@robbiefishing]

Hi mate, most people call it trout cod, but the old timers called it a Bluenose.

[@Ckktopa]

@@robbiefishing Bluenose code, PERFECT!

[@robbiefishing]

@@Ckktopa I think they're commonly called a trout cod due to there similarities with trout, and the fact that they're more of an upland species, found in mountainous areas.
