Cod Secrets: An Aussie Icon

Murray cod is the freshwater heavyweight of Australian rivers and lakes. It is an apex predator capable of growing to more than 1.8 metres long, and weighing in at more than 113kg. That’s a big fish and, as you would expect for a fish of this size, it ranks among the top ten biggest freshwater fish in the world. Respected fishing writer Rod Mackenzie is regarded as Australia’s cod fishing guru by his peers. In this illuminating book, Rod not only details the how, when, where, and why of cod fishing, he also puts cod into a unique, historical context and details the biology of Australia’s most sought- after freshwater fish. This book contains ample photos to prove Rod’s ability, as well as putting a more human face on the life of cod aficionados with campfire yarns and tales of bad luck and hot bites. If your aim is to catch a big Murray cod, then let Rod be your guide. More than four million anglers chase Murray cod. Whether you live in southern Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria of South Australia, this book is a tell all, and Rod gives away many of his secrets. So, if you fly fish, cast or troll lures, or fish with bait, don’t let this one get away. —- ISBN: 9780646976099 | ISBN10: 0646976095 | ISBN-13: 978-0646976099
