Fishing In The Berrigan Channel in NSW

Рет қаралды 32,983

The Berrigan channel is fed with water off the Mulwala channel, which is fed with Murray River water off Lake Mulwala. In this episode of my From The Vault series I am fishing in the Berrigan channel with my wife Lauretta back in spring time last year.
Berrigan is a small town in the NSW Riverina region, a part of the world that I really love.

I know you have in the past Robbie, but I think that an explanation that these two species of fish are not native to Australia. So they don’t feel too bad when they’re hooked too deep or they feel that you’re being cruel just for the sake of being cruel. Which is nothing like you mate. Fish on my friend and keep your awesome videos coming.
