Using cheese to catch Murray Cod
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 03. 2020
- As the weather begins to cool down and Autumn sets in, Murray Cod start going off the bite and progressively get harder to catch as we head towards Winter. Knowing that my chances to catch one are slowly dwindling, I set out to hopefully catch a couple more Cod before they go off the bite completely. With the water still high and muddy, I left my lures at home and headed down to the river with a container full of cubed tasty cheese ready to be put on the hooks. It seems I made the right choice, as it wasn't long at all before I had a nice sized Murray Cod on the end of the line.

Great vid mate, I started watching your videos recently through Robbies Fishing. Love the fishing and content you do. I caught a turtle on a lure today chasing Redfin! Was a real surprise! Cheers mate! Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much Tom! Robbie's a top bloke and a good friend of mine. Oh wow what kind of lure were you using? I caught one on a Tassie Devil once haha!
It was a double clutch. Must’ve Literally cast it on his head! 🤣 first wind and I had weight, thought I’d caught a stick! Hahaha
@@tomireland2247 LOL That's a fair effort mate!
Thanks for your kind words fellas. A turtle on a lure... that takes talent. I caught one on a JD Superbug many years ago. I hooked it in the foot. haha
Great work mate, lovely cod. The cod fishing is soooo slow in my area. Your turtle to cod ratio is much better than mine. LOL
Thanks Robbie! It's funny you should bring up the turtle to cod ratio, I was waiting to catch 1 more of either, and then comment about the turtle to cod ratio from your videos hahaha
@@RKJFishing hahahaha
love your video's mate great stuff
Thanks heaps mate
Very nice place for fishing!
Thanks for sharing my dear friend.
You really seem to have a talent for fishing.
Big Liked...
Have a nice Sunday...👍👍
Thanks so much. It's already almost Monday here lol
Another awesome video mate! Keep up the good work and great cod! 👍🎣
Thanks so much mate!
That murray cod looks cheese...😂 nice fish. Turtle wanted some dairy too.
Haha thanks mate
These fish have great taste!! Always enjoy your videos my friend!
Haha yep they sure do, thanks mate
Nice Cod. I knew you would get a turtle. Tight lines
Thanks Wayne. I had a funny feeling I was gonna get one as well LOL.
Nice catches....Those Murray's have a great Camo coloration.....Who ate more cheese....You or the Critters!!
Thanks heaps Wes! Normally I'd say me, but I've been pretty good about what I'm eating lately lol. I saw your new video sitting there mate, hoping to get a chance to watch it tonight
Nice job. I love the look of those fish!👍👍
Thanks mate me too, they are a gorgeous fish. You should see the ones pulled out of clear water!
Awesome 👏
Thanks mate
Nice fish mate great work
Thanks heaps Brad!
Beautiful cod and not a bad looking turtle too 🤣. Those turtles love you Rohan!
Thanks Fitzy! LOL yeah they certainly do mate, they all want their 15 seconds of fame! hahaha
I Love How You Take Care Of Your Fish!! That Turtle Was A Funny Catch :)
Thanks mate, we need to look after our native fish species so we do our best, especially with Murray Cod
Say cheese. I’m glad to see someone use different types of bait. If the bait doesn’t hurt the fish, I say use it. Well done catching the cod. Especially with 🧀.
Thanks so much Jordan. I agree mate, I've seen no proof that it harms the fish whatsoever, despite what people on the internet say haha
That was a real nice Murray cod you caught a few more of them would have made a good day fishing
Thanks Jerry! I was hoping for a couple more but 1 is always better than none haha
That was awesome Rohan!! They are such a cool fish. I wonder why they like cheese so much. Take care brother!
Thanks mate! I'm not sure, they probably resemble some kind of egg that can be found in the water sometimes. Often these Cod are found with golf balls inside their stomachs LOL
RKJ Fishing That makes sense. They are kind of like Salmon and Trout. We used pieces of sponge to catch King Salmon because it looks like an egg sac if you cut it right. Golf balls are crazy to find in a fish. They sound more like Tiger Sharks, lol. Take care bud!!
Awesome video man! I really want to go freshwater fishing now for carp and yellowbellies! Great video man! Can’t wait for more!🤙👍🤙👍 Hope to oneday catch a Murray cod👍
Thanks so much! I love freshwater fishing, I really want to do more saltwater fishing hahaha. Maybe we can swap for a week or 2 lol
RKJ Fishing Haha absolutely mate! 🤙👍😂
Those are lovely fish, i lake the colors on them, and they seem to pull really good too.
They are beautiful aren't they? They can grow over 3 times that size as well haha
Yeah mate can't beat cheese
It certainly does the job aye? haha
I've heard of people using cheese, but never tried it! Cool to see it works! You were right about the turtle haha!
I wonder what cheese would catch over there? I reckon catfish would like it. Those bloody turtles follow me everywhere I go fishing haha
Great video Rohan!
Thanks Shahil!
Nice vid mate! Great explanation on the wide-gap hooks, too. Have to admit, I've never even thought about using cheese as bait. What kind of cheese do you use and do you have any issues with it coming off the hook once it's been soaking for a while?
Thanks mate! It does come off the hook more easily than some other baits, but I find if I put the hook through it twice and cast gently I don't have too many issues. I was using tasty cheese in this video but some people find that mozzarella stays on the hook a bit better
Nice chunky healthy looking cod 👍🏻
It certainly was aye? Every cod I've caught from that bend seems to be the same size and condition LOL same spawn maybe? I knew they could be territorial but that's taking it to a new level lol (Or maybe it's just the same fish over and over hahaha)
I feel cheese is a very underrated bait I love using it for chub over here as you can tell I am binging your channel today I have zero regrets awesome awesome time such a cool guy and creator.
Thanks so much for your kind words Shamus. Hopefully I get to catch a chub someday
@@RKJFishing one day mate one day
Good stuff
Thanks heaps Rylan!
nice work as always buddy
Thanks so much mate
Another great watch mate, nothing wrong with cheese bait !
Yeww 🔥🔥🤙
Thanks heaps mate. I agree!
Nice looking fish on cheese, I need to try that!!!
Thanks Glenn, I wonder what cheese would catch over there? A catfish might take it
Way to go! cheese slayer mate! don't know who these people are who don't like cheese?? think they should have bigger fish to fry!
Thanks heaps Paul! I'm not sure where the myth started from with cheese and cod but there's no studies or information confirming it that I've ever seen lol
Great catching. Great to get out and have a go.
Absolutely mate, thanks heaps. I might not have much chance in the coming weeks, the government over here have announced a lot of restrictions starting from Tuesday
@@RKJFishing cant see any harm going fishing.
@@vincentdonnellymadirishman5158 Me either mate, here's hoping
nice cod mate 👍 cheese looked nice to did you eat the bait lol
Thanks Frank! Nah I actually managed to behave myself for once that day lol
Nice fish Rohan - glad you got one of the turtles I sent you, I didn't want to be shellfish and catch them all myself ....
Shellfish LOL! You're a funny guy Frank! I'm glad I could take one off your hands mate, they have been giving you strife lately. Hopefully that means there's an extra catfish for you next time!
Nice vid
Thanks heaps mate!
I never knew fish like cheese great video stay safe
Thanks mate, I know cod do and sometimes carp. I reckon the catfish you guys get over there would probably like it too
Your summer is ending as our winter is ending, I need to get a winter home in Australia lol. Nice catch!
Yep the seasons are opposite here to what you guys get. Thanks mate!
"lol"
🤦🏻♂️
👍🐟
Thanks Robert
That was a pretty cod. I love the markings on them. Ewwww, nasty turtle. I don't like catching them things. They bite back!😂
Thanks Bill, they are a pretty fish aren't they? I don't like catching them either but it's hard not to sometimes lol
Haha sure turtle bite back 😰
Nothing worse than being down the river and a turtle head starts poking out 🤣
Great to see they are still biting mate!
HAHA yeah you know it's going downhill once you see turtle heads popping up LOL. Luckily I found a cod as well though, I was worried haha. Glad I got to catch one more before we're all locked in our houses!
Plus you can snack on the cheese. Unless it is spoiled. Nice size fish. and turtle.
I'm a sucker for some cheese Wayn, but I behaved myself on that day lol. Thanks mate
Awesome, you can catch fish with cheese! it's amazing!
It sure is. Thanks mate
Nice work! I’d be too busy eating the bait to catch any fish 😂 haha just kidding nice video !
Haha yeah it's pretty tempting to sit there and eat a few cubes lol! Thanks mate
I use a mozzarella cheese and melt some on a sheet of baking paper in the microwave. Hangs on the hook very well. Not sure if it works but heard adding a little parmesan to it may add some smell and work better
I've heard mozzarella works well but never tried it myself. Parmesan is one I haven't heard before though! I might have to try both haha
It's amazing how many fish like cheese, haha. I have lost more swimbaits to turtles, sometimes I think they actually watch me as I'm fishing, haha.
Haha I think the turtles watch me as well Russ, they seem to be wherever I am lol
Good day Mate..! May I know where that place? Winter is coming and I don’t hooked cod and yella. Sad season for me. Thank you
That was filmed on the Campaspe River mate. Good luck I hope you're able to find one
RKJ Fishing Thanks mate wish me luck 🙂🙂
That was a cheesey video Rohan :) Nice catch though.
LOL Thanks Mick, very punny! Cheers mate, always a pleasure to catch a nice Cod. I literally just finished watching your video and then saw the notification from your comment on mine haha
@@RKJFishing Sorry mate, had to say it :)
@@mickssouthaussieadventures1631 hahaha
I have always put cheese in a small pot heat it then mould to to the hook in the shape of a grub
I've done that in the past also, it's a great trick for sure
Nice cod mate and hooking a turtle does suck ,I do have to say that your vids get me out there and have a go doesn't matter if your if you're hook-up or not .love ya vids mate👍👍
Thanks so much Skotti, and thanks for the kind words as well I'm glad that they make you want to go fishing mate!
@@RKJFishing bloody oath 👍
Nice job with the cod and it annoys me when you catch turtles because the way they bend the rod it makes it look like you hook a metery but still looks like fun tho nice work
Thanks mate! Yeah they put a good bend in the rod aye hahaha
Another great video Rohan. Might have to have a try with some cheese
Thanks so much Michael. It's a great bait for them!
My brother uses all the time
@@michaelstevens-drew5073 It must work well for him if he keeps using it, that's awesome!
@@RKJFishing thats true mate. Next time I go I'll give it a try. Also that tip about freezing the shrimp tails it works good to
@@michaelstevens-drew5073 Ah awesome I'm glad it helped you out mate! The fish seem to love them frozen tails haha
Awesome 👍👍
Do you ever caught a Carp on cheese ?
Thanks mate! I've never caught a carp on cheese but my friends have
First time that I sea someone catch fish on cheese 😮🤔
I just saw in CZcams few weeks ago that someone catch fish on gummy candy .
You will never know what that will take😉
Nice finish for end of season 🐟👍
Cheese is highly regarded for catching Murray Cod, I suspect it would work on other types of cod around the world as well. Wow gummy candy? I will have to try that one, maybe I could use gummy snakes like a lure LOL. Thanks friend
@@RKJFishing Good to know.
We don't have cod in Israel.
The guy with the gummy was spinning with them.
Try it👍
A study was done I'm sure Robbie from Robbie fishing was involved some how...cheese is safe
I'm not sure if he was involved with a study but he definitely holds the same opinion as I do regarding the use of cheese as bait, and that it is safe. Until someone shows me documented proof that it's bad for the fish, I will continue using it.
Absolute ripper of a video using cheese I never thought that would work but is obviously works well done,also just wondering how you get custom thumbnails thanks so much
Thanks Brayden! Well done on your big bream from your new video as well mate, it still won't let me comment on them. To get the custom thumbnails I take a screenshot of the video when I'm editing it (or you can just use a photo) and then I use Microsoft Publisher to edit the photo and put my logo on it or anything else I want like text, I play with the brightness and contrast a little bit, and then I select all and right click and save it as a new picture, which I can upload to CZcams. Hopefully that makes sense lol
RKJ Fishing thanks so much earlier I went on CZcams studio and I had to back up my CZcams channel if that makes sense and it let me make my own thumbnail and I did just what you said and I'm so exited I always wanted to make my own thumbnail thanks so much I appreciate it
@@braydensfishin That's awesome mate! I'll keep my eyes peeled for your custom thumbnails haha
Quite murky you reckon. Just looks like the Murray here in S.A. every day of the year!;-)
Haha yeah the Murray is always quite muddy looking isn't it? Must be because there's so much current.
@@RKJFishing Maybe. Plus a large population of pungent carp eating the banks away.
They love cheese but I reckon they love Frankfurt more
I've used it a few times without luck! I'll definitely be trying it again
Great work mate well done.
Your starting to not look like your brother hahahaha
Thanks Jaron! Hahaha yeah the beard grows back very fast LOL
Stop using cheese..Geez whiz Louise..haha..just joking...From the first Murray Cod it seem to like the cheese. Great video as always :) I know I'm cheesey, turtle, turtle..haha.. ttyl..cheers mate :)
hahaha am I not turtly enough for the turtle club???? LOL! Thanks Sandra
@@RKJFishing haha
I'm a rowan too haha
haha that's awesome!
good name for good blokes! haha good fishing video! turns out your not to far away from me
We got to techs robbie how to use circle hooks
He uses circle hooks from time to time, but he's a bit like me he doesn't like using them very much. He and I both prefer standard hooks to give us more control over when to strike
Where is this creek
That's the Campaspe river
I'm 12 and I got snapped off by a huge 50 pound murry cod but finally got him
Oh wow congratulations, what a fish!
You could also catch me on cheese mate hahah! Those cod remind me of carp, they eat mostly anything. You sure are a turtle master. Do they allow keeping and eating a turtle?
Do those cod prefer muddy water?
Cheese would catch me as well haha. I'm not 100% on the turtle rules but I would think we aren't allowed to keep them. The cod would probably prefer cleaner water but they are an ambush predator so the muddier water might help them hide better
Best bait for cod is chicken we catch so much cod on it
Chicken can be a great cod bait for sure
its not the cheese itself that kills the cod, its the people who take dishcloth and melt the cheese into the cloth and then use that for bait, the cod cant digest the cloth
Oh wow I haven't heard of people doing that but I agree with you on that one, that would be terrible for the fish!
First yew
Haha nice work buddy!
Hello Rohan, don't broadcast it to loud LOL, fisheries are totally insane, my nephew got fined
$ thousand dollars for leaving his baited rod in the water , he walked away from it to grab a drink from his esky in tent... unfortunately where they were fishing they couldn't set up camp any closer then 80 meters from the water's edge... this happened on the labour day weekend just gone over at cobram...
Oh wow nah I won't broadcast it mate. I know about the 50 meter rule for leaving a rod unattended but that seems a bit harsh to me if he was just grabbing a drink!
@@RKJFishing that's what we all thought, but unfortunately she and i state she didn't wan't to hear any ecause 50 meter rule he broke it ... i don't think they even caught a fish LOL, i think there going bike riding next year...
@@mdmelbourne6076 LOL I don't blame them mate. The fisheries officer must have been in a bad mood or something!
Cheese is fine for cod in my experience. Feed it to my pet Cheese.
yeah it's fine in my experience as well Trev. Do you have a pet Cod?
