A change in strategy catches fish at the Elmore Weir

[@robbiefishing]

Great work mate. So good to see you getting onto a few fish. I usually have a couple of small tins of corn in my tackle box for that very reason. I say usually, because I tend to forget to replace them after I use them. LOL 😂😂😂 Thank you Adam. 🙏

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks mate, feels good to be wrestling them again! I almost always have a small can of corn somewhere in my fishing bag, but not that day lol. Yes, thank you Adam!

[@stringbean1010]

Ffs mate you can’t keep going away for long periods and just come back like this :) we need you constantly 😅

[@RKJFishing]

Haha I'm working on it! Should be more next week

[@adamprictor7310]

Hi Rohan, it was great to meet you. Thanks again for the conversation and tips. I must admit l was a bit shocked to meet someone whose channel l subscribe to. It was a great day. My total was 12 for the session plus 4 lost due to snags and one slipping the hook. 1 turtle on corn as you saw. Back out there tomorrow and will see how it fishes after the storms we have had. Thanks again Kind regards Adam.

[@RKJFishing]

Hey Adam it was nice to meet you as well. 12 is a ripper effort mate well done. Thanks again for the corn and helping me get a video haha. Good luck when you head back

[@darylC_2306tiger1]

G,day Rohan great to see you out and about with nice little vid, the last couple of times I tried there at Elmore wier over the last 12 months I never caught or saw any reddies but there were heaps of dead monster carp. Cheers mate.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks mate. Yeah I've had the same results at the weir lately, it's an absolute carp fest haha. Oh well I'll have fun slowly removing them lol

[@Mark-ew5jm]

So pleased to see you posting again Roman, hope all is well. Ended up a good little session. Thanks for sharing.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks heaps Mark

[@peterhipwell4632]

Thanks Rohan good to see you back I was there about 8 months ago amazing how scenery changes corn is always a good standby isn’t it

[@RKJFishing]

Cheers, Peter. It is very interesting saying how the river changes over time isn't it

[@davehendricks4824]

Finally! This video made my Sunday!

[@RKJFishing]

Hahaha cheers, Dave

[@michaelpaul5498]

Hi Rohan. Good to see you back fishing. I was on the Yarra on Monday and got one fat carp. About a month ago, I was on a different spot on the Yarra and caught a Murray Cod. It was undersized and I returned it, but good to see other species in the river. Kind regards MP

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks Michael. I've heard of cod in the Yarra before, certainly not often though. Always good to see small ones in the system!

[@grantgamble7859]

Great to see you fishing at one of your favourite spots well done.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks Grant

[@WalbertWesker]

it's so good to see you posting again mate❤️ awesome video like usual

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks heaps

[@chriscoyne4827]

Great to see you back buddy. Sounds like fishing has been tough over that way. Anyway it's just wicked seeing you back out fishing hope is all well.

[@RKJFishing]

It's been very hit or miss Chris, and I haven't been able to get out much haha. Thanks mate

[@chriscoyne4827]

@RKJFishing the channel over near Murchison is really on fire if you can get over this way buddy. You and Robbie was craying in it few years back

[@sirskidney7998]

Hey Rohan, great to see you out fishing again. Take care and thanks for the video.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks so much

[@aussiesmoko]

Great to see you back again rohan . Hope everyone and everything is ok

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks mate, all good here just been flat out

[@Urbanfisho]

Water's pretty dirty! Been HIGHER too by the looks of the reeds!

[@RKJFishing]

Yeah it's a bit off colour, maybe that's another reason why the lures did no good. There was a fair bit of extra water coming over the wall (which couldn't have been rain, (it was so dry before I filmed that) there must be a flow from Eppalock happening through Spring

[@Urbanfisho]

@@RKJFishing Ok.

[@michael-fb7ps]

Nice mate great to see you back again cheers

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks so much Michael

[@captainfrank01]

No redfin but adapted to the situation and caught some orange fins instead Rohan! Good to see you uploading again!

[@RKJFishing]

haha orange fins, now I have something new to call them. Thanks heaps Frank

[@amazonian4789]

It’s great to see another video, hope to see you and Robbie get out there soon

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks mate. It's on the cards for sure, it's just a matter of when haha.

[@lenlemaic7849]

Hi Rohan, it was a good day at the weir. You caught three carp, had a swimm, and met a channel follower, that is Adam. It's better than sitting at home. Great session. Thank you for posting.

[@RKJFishing]

Definitely better than sitting at home Len! Thanks heaps mate

[@bushfishncook2128]

Was starting to worry about you mate, glad to see you back, hope all is well mate. I would have to agree you definitely made the right choice in switching over to carp, what a legend Adam is, happy to share the spot and even a bit of bait 👍 Gee I'm glad you blokes are down there helping keep those carp in check. We need more people smashing that place, way too many carp in there... Great bit of Aussie pest control 🎣🥾 Poo piranha 😅😂 Can't beat a bit of Adam's corn kernels by the looks of it haha Keep up the awesome work as always mate, hope to see some more videos soon.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks so much mate. I'm always happy to wrestle a few carp, it's loads of fun haha. Cheers!

[@bushfishncook2128]

@RKJFishing when you're board you will have to check out my barehanded bush fishing video, they wouldn't keep biting so I hopped in after them hahaha Even though they are a pest they are still fun to catch, tight lines until next time legend 🎣

Good to see you getting out a bit, mate.

Cheers Roo!

Thanks heaps Glen

[@GregoryMurphy-b4v]

G.day Rohan.tell me how do you dispose of your carp?

[@Chucky-b7v]

Good one, Rohan 👍🏼. That was a bit of fun mate. Great video as usual.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks heaps Wayne

[@lestabithasadventures]

Rohan! Slayin carp awesome! Fishing has been lean for me at the moment. Great to see one of your videos again!

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks Les, yeah it's been lean for me as well!

[@HookedOnFishing61]

Good video Rohan. Good to see you back in action and catching some fish.

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks heaps Jacob

[@LangeysFishingAdventures]

Hope to see more videos from u Rohan

[@RKJFishing]

If the fish co-operate, there will be more vids this week!

[@LangeysFishingAdventures]

@ can’t wait mate

[@EOB1234]

I’ve fished in the same spot no Redfin but the carp can get them of the hook

[@RKJFishing]

For years and years that pool was a great redfin fishing spot, but since the last floods the carp have really taken over! If you go back to the earlier videos on my channel you will see me fishing there and catching some nice reddies in the past. Hopefully we can get the carp back under control, and the reddies might come back (maybe) lol

[@billyboy1441]

good stuff, rkj

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks Billy

[@joshuamcdonald8716]

It's hard because it's seasonal with the fish and sometimes they don't bite

[@RKJFishing]

It's definitely the right season to catch redfin, that pool below the Weir used to be packed with redfin, but since the last floods the carp have taken over big time

[@joshuamcdonald8716]

@RKJFishing I want to go fishing down the elmore wier how's it going atm

[@RKJFishing]

@joshuamcdonald8716 carp fest lol

[@lilmark6206]

The other day I had no normal hooks on me so I used a jig head and put a bait worm on it. Caught two carp!

[@RKJFishing]

Very nice! The carp don't seem to mind the jigheads

[@mickelston7512]

Shit hot Rohan, the carp are on the bite at greens lake too. My mate caught his first carp there with me the other day bout 62cm👌

[@RKJFishing]

Thanks Mick. Good to hear the bite is on at Greens, I might have to take a drive over

[@mickelston7512]

@RKJFishing yeah its been goin good. As you know alot of little reddies but got a monster yellow belly on the jan jucs few weeks back. Just shy of four and a half kilo. Was in shock😆

[@RKJFishing]

@@mickelston7512 Woah nice catch! It's good to hear there is still a few yellas left in there, fisheries scooped most of them out for relocation when it was drying up a few years back

[@Fish.adv7]

i found your old trout lure

[@RKJFishing]

Well done! I hope it catches you lots of fish

[@Fish.adv7]

@ i hope it dose i will tell you when i catch one

[@brumbyrider54]

Rohan gday, is frozen corn ok or should i use tinned corn? Thanks

[@RKJFishing]

Hey mate frozen corn works well! I usually grab half a cup full from the frozen bag and fill the rest with cold water to thaw out a bit before I leave. Tinned corn is easier to carry around that's all, but if you keep it in a sandwich bag or screw top container you can chuck it in your bag or tackle box no worries.

[@JKFishing0138]

great fish mate was fishing at the Yarra today had about 50 bites and didn't hook a single fish haha im going up to lake Eppalock and Bendigo soon got any tips for yellow belly and cod at Eppalock ill be in season then and even tips for lake weeroona thanks

[@RKJFishing]

Days like that are so frustrating haha. The only yellas I've caught at Eppalock were on worms, and I've never caught a cod there so I don't really have any tips for Eppalock sorry mate! With Lake Weeroona don't cast too far out, you can get plenty of bites a few meters away from the bank - good luck! By the way, Lake Eppalock is open year-round for Murray cod fishing, the closed season has been removed for that lake just like Lake Eildon.
