ChuckTseeker 425 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 This video has been added to my youtube channel mainly for my overseas friends but i guess some of you guys wouldn't have seen it yet too, so! Here is another of my old fishing videos from 2008, rehashed for my youtube channel. This time watch as my mate Lucas Weaver ( i think you guys might know him ) catches a monster 130cm Cod in Australia's largest river, the mighty "Murray River". We were out for a mid week fish and 10 minutes into our troll i got snagged. As we stopped the boat Weaver wound his lure in and was hit by this monster Cod. Weaver writes for a few Australian Fishing Magazines and his story and the photos i took for him, made a double page photo spread. So sit back and watch as Australia's largest freshwater fish is caught and released. Music used this time is from my fellow band members home studio, Rick on mandalin, guitar's and vocals and Jake on his magical keyboard Thanks Rick & Jake Costin cheers chuck Tinker, CastOn, Chief and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tinker 1,645 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Stunning fish and well played by Weaver. Really enjoyed this clip, cheers Chuck. Stayed green for a while and refused to give up easily. Would be interested to know what gear he is using and if it is one of his own lures. Great stuff! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChuckTseeker 425 Posted July 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 thanks guys, you would need to ask Weaver what gear he was using as i'm not sure. The lure though is a "Doofdoc" a mate of Weavers makes them a very good Cod lure and well proven have a look at said lures name on facebook to see some of the monsters Chicky catches on his "Doofdoc" lures err thats "cod food" for those in the know! cheers chuck Tinker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weaver 271 Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Bit late but i was using an 8kg pinpoint rod and 50lb braid with a 80lb leader. Lure as chuck said was a Doofie. Tinker 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
