The BEST redfin perch fishing that I have ever had

In all my years of fishing, I can't remember ever experiencing redfin perch fishing like this. This was unbelievable. What an awesome session we had.
In case you are wonderfing why I call them redfin perch, instead of just redfin, that is because in many parts of the world they are just called perch, so now my video will hopefully turn up in search results for people searching for redfin, or perch.

[@jimabraham6986]

Being inspired by your fishing lake Buffalo tinny fishing and the 2 mtr swell at home. (Bairnsdale). I headed over Hotham with my tinny and my dog. Approximately 100m of trawling had my first ever Murray Cod in the boat. 50cm and released. Spent the rest of the day dodging ski boats looking for more Cod. Sunday morning trawling for redfin. Found a school of 30cm ish and quickly filled the esky. Threw about 20 back and kept 22 at 30cm.

[@robbiefishing]

WOW Jim that is excellent, well done on the reddies and the cod. If you head towards the top of the lake you can het away from the ski boats. The whole top half of the lake is subject to a 5 knot speed limit.

[@joelvivian5581]

Red-hot redfin session robbie!

Holy smokes that’s just insane, they were some of the biggest reddies I’ve seen in a while aswell. Also I normally work saturdays and that only leaves Sunday’s for me to do stuff, and I normally hang out with friends on that day. So I haven’t been fishing in about a month and that means I can’t film videos and fish like I really want to. I really want a long weekend to come. 😔 (Sorry for the long comment)
