A lovely Saturday afternoon, a river bank, a loaf of bread and a rod is great. Throw in a couple of good sized fish and the afternoon becomes fabulous! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIUmNIDcZEI
Fishing man made structure can often pay off in great rewards. As I fished a bread bait for carp this morning, I got a very pleasant surprise. A nice big cod took my bait and within a few minutes of arriving at my spot, I was onto a nice size cod. Cod season closed yesterday, so why not?

This great mushroom is edible when young. Older specimens produce a black ink. A very distinguishable mushroom with a weeping, conical cap which has peeling skin.

This was an attempt to shoot an unboxing, it failed when the cats got interested in what I was doing and decided they had to check it out...

I went fishing with a friend on Sunday and he caught his first fish. Pretty happy with a nice carp. And well fought in a tricky area, with plenty of reeds and weeds to snag up in.

A bit more perch fishing action from my favourite local spot. A couple of nice fish on on R5 Baits Curl Tail Grubs (R5 Baits can be found at R5 Adventures. Hit up Krystal and Mike. Great people, fantastic baits. https://www.youtube.com/@r5adventures922) as a warm up for the main event on worms a little later. All up, about 45 minutes spent, plenty of hits, 3 fish.
Good fun any night.
Ridiculously cool for this time of year though.

Took the not so arduous drive down South towards Bredbo and fished one of the many creeks that wend their way through the granite country. Well worth the effort as @MaluHunter (Damien) lived up to his name and found himself a nice little patch of fish. A pleasure to fish with the man and so great to see him getting some really nice fish.
I was frustrated and grumpy, using a new rod, I kept overcasting and retied about half a dozen times in about 10 casts as I caught trees and reeds and other obstacles on the far bank. I had an absolute ball and would not trade my day for anything. A bad day fishing is a great day.

Gave the R5 CrawYabbie a swim and managed to lose the 2 I had, but not before getting some footage in the water, and getting a couple of hits on them. Great looking baits in or out of the water. After losing them went to a wriggle tail worm on a jig head, and caught a nice little redfin.
