Full Moon Goodoo
Submitted by big john on Sun, 2007-11-25 17:25
Spent a very enjoyable 24 hours on a wheatbelt dam with Maverick and Stevo this weekend.
It was hard graft during the day but as soon as the moon hit the water the place went off. Plenty of murray cod with a few yellowbelly perch thrown in for good measure. We all caught our first ever yellowbelly (new species) and I was lucky enough to score a PB Murray Cod.
All fish were carefully released with barbless hooks being the order of the day.
Landing PB Murray Cod. Got a chewed up thumb for good measure.

One and the same
G'Day Mark,
Minnow lures with a strong action are the go. I've got some old stumpjumpers that I've had some good success with.

I head a little FURTHER NORTH each year,
Leave the cities behind, out of sight of mind,

Congrats on the PB BJ - nice pic. Do they take poppers? Would be a nice added visual in the moon light!
