Surface fishing for Murray Cod at Lake Eildon in North East Victoria can be tough. In this video after hours upon hours of casting it shows the results can be very rewarding. These are three of the best fish from 2022.

Well done catching those fish and the way you gave them time to recover was great to see. I've only caught one Murray cod and it was all of twenty five centimetres long, I was pretty pleased with that so you must be thrilled with the ones you got, if a bit knackered as well. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Great fish mate in a beautiful location. Not sure what one of the guys was talking about that u weren't handling them properly!!?? That was the first thing I noticed that you handled them perfectly. Keeping them in the water for as long as possible etc. No lip gripping holds to wreck their gills. The cod that come out of there are just beasts! Thanks for the great vid mate!!!

Glad to know when you got the massive one you hadn’t had a hit in 4 weeks. That was when we were there for a few days and went fishless. So it wasn’t just us 😂. Great fish, got me keen to try it out again now even though I said I wouldn’t go back after the fishless trip we had

I still have a love/hate relationship with Eildon Grant, just when you're about to give up on the place, it throws you a bone and keeps you coming back. The rewards are worth it.

Three bangers there mate. Good to see that I'm not the only one who talks to metery's when I'm playing them! For faster revival before release try turning your lecky on low so the boat is moving. It pushes water through their gills and brings their blood oxygen up faster. Old saltwater gamefish trick and works well on big GooDoo. Cheers for the vid, got me keen as shit 👍🏻

I don't think he handled it bad at all. Ideally he should have unhooked it while it was still in the water, and then immediately released it. But he did not have it in the boat for that long time. The Murray Cod should be fine.
