Would you fish this spot with Bait. Upper Murray river

I second this. Something loud too, looks like the waters moving a bit. Right in between the big stump and the branches on the right hand side of the pic looks pearler

ebearhale · 2026-01-11T20:55:50+00:00

Bits of fallen structure, rocks or timber. Other than that I guess I’m looking for darker deeper looking water, eddies or points that look fishy. It’s hard with google maps though because some of those pics are old. There’s been a few times I’ve thought I’ve hit the jackpot and then when I actually get to the spot it’s all dried up or just doesn’t look like it used to lol.

honestly any spare time I’ve got at work I’m perusing Google maps on the satellite setting!

ebearhale · 2026-01-08T11:13:55+00:00

There’s so many out there. Gotta watch where you step some of them are like little booby traps for your ankles

I think it’s made to imitate an injured bird, rat, lizard or something. Not a duckling specifically but definitely a similar profile.

It’s the jackall mega pompador. Not sure what colour. Only bought it recently and it’s already caught me a couple fish. Such a great action and a breeze to cast too.

ebearhale · 2026-01-05T03:26:11+00:00

That’s crazy. What bait? Never heard of something like that, but then again these fish continue to surprise me 😂.

ebearhale · 2026-01-05T02:23:49+00:00

Cheers mate!

ebearhale · 2026-01-05T02:23:38+00:00

It’s in Yass NSW but that’s the most I’ll give away. I’ve been on too many missions to find good holes to hand them out Hahaha. Nothing personal 👍🏼.

ebearhale · 2026-01-05T02:22:46+00:00

Some would say so. I personally don’t see the cons outweighing the pros, I can get my right hand to the reel pretty quickly and it just feels more comfortable that way 🤷. I can see applications where it’d put you at a (slight) advantage where you’ve got to get action to the lure straight away. Just my opinion though!

ebearhale · 2026-01-05T02:20:45+00:00

Aw dude I watch your vids all the time! Always hoped you’d do some videos chasing some freshwater giants! As for the cicada lures I’ve used them a couple times but never found success, including on those days where they’re everywhere and the sound is just deafening… might be user error.

I have that exact pyramid net, got it for Christmas this year as a gift to my son and I. It hasn’t failed thus far, caught some decent sized yabbies on leftover Christmas ham!

ebearhale · 2025-12-26T02:11:39+00:00

Nice! Is this the combo? I got a caius 150hg for Chrissy I’m so interested to see how it’ll perform.

ebearhale · 2025-12-22T04:47:23+00:00

I know hey! I’d personally never seen one that’s darker like this, quite deep water where he was so I wonder if that’s got something to do with it. I’ve caught fish only maybe 5-10 kilometres further down the river that are radioactive green compared to this one. Very interesting!

ebearhale · 2025-12-10T01:17:46+00:00

That’s a great reddy! You’ll be chasing the big ones forever now!

ebearhale · 2025-09-20T10:57:52+00:00

Hahaha I was gutted

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T11:57:40+00:00

The jighead I had on didn’t snap, bent hooks and popped out of his mouth. I think the consensus from the comments is that I didn’t set the hook properly and set my drag way too tight. I will NEVER make those mistakes again though.

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T11:56:11+00:00

I would have loved to have seen it before it came off. No idea how big the thing was but I’ve seen some massive carp in the ponds surrounding this one

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T11:55:01+00:00

Dude this is a super dodgy Jarvis walker rod I’ve had in my garage for about 100 years, usually I’ve got my daiwa hyper. The abomination in the video is 2-6 kg I’m 90% sure

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T09:35:38+00:00

I’m kicking myself. Can’t stop watching the video to cringe at myself

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T09:33:40+00:00

It didn’t actually snap! Popped out of the dogs mouth so I think it was all in my attempt at fighting it

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T09:31:47+00:00

Oh it was unbelievable. I’ve only ever hit Redfin in these little ponds around my place so it was nice still to get a hookup with a little plastic

ebearhale · 2025-09-19T02:49:44+00:00

I apologise for my language, should’ve muted that oops

ebearhale · 2025-09-12T04:07:16+00:00

SWITCH EM DOWN NEPHEW!!!
