- Im joined by squirly to do a 6 day drift down the beautiful Murray river for the December 2023 Murray Cod season opening. We fish large surface lures mostly to target large fish. We also record a podcast along our trip that can be listened too on Spotify just search "Chumming Up"
Lures: Balista tremor, Mudeye lures, spin wright spinnerbaits, stump jumpers and barambah lures.
Great work Leigh.Appreciate the effort to produce these sessions and the effort required to catch our iconic fish.
Hey mate thanks. Glad you liked it
Brings back memories of when I used to live in Finley and always on the Murray catching green fish I just had to subscribe cheers guys 👍🍻🇦🇺
Great video mate I love it
Cheers mate. Not quite the numbers of big fish like in your vids but definitely addicted to camping on the river bank and fishing a large stretch of river looking for the next snag to cast.
the green lure you found is an oar-gee they are one of my favorite cod lures
Cheers mate. Yea I thought it might be. The bib is a different shape than other oar-gees I’ve seen before. Also couldnt make out the name on the bib either like most other oar-gees. Been using it a bit lately. Bloody good lure.
Awesome fish mate! 👏
Thanks mate. Them surface bites are so addictive.
@@Leighmitchell001 they sure are
Awesome 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
I knew you were going to get the 2nd bite and was still nervous haha
Nice trip. That metre plus was a stonker. Need to get back up on God's country myself.
The second lure you found is called a hunch back
And we’re on the Murry wore u
hey leigh what braid do you use
Hey mate. I pretty much give anything a go as it comes to braid. My favourite at the moment would be j-braid x8 and I’ve recently spooled one of my swimbait outfits with the new j-braid x8 expedition and it’s definitely a lot thinner diameter than the original and feels nice to cast.
Stupid question what kg is ya rod at stuck on what is a good weight to go
Hey mate for the large surface I’m using a 1oz-5oz 7ft10in swimbait rod. Anything around that weight and 7ft to 8ft range is good. They need to be strong for the weight of the lures and long so you can cast along way. As for the little spinnerbaits and hard body’s any normal sort or baitcaster at around 1/4oz-1oz should do the trick. Hope this helps
