Today I stopped in on one of my favourite carp fishing spots. I used corn and could not catch a carp, so I tied on a tiny Bassman spinnerbait and tried to catch a redfin perch, and on the very first cast I was totally surprised to catch a nice healthy small Murray cod. 
 Absolutely unbelievable! I was not expecting to find a Murray cod this far up a small tributary of the river system. 
 This fish is testimony to the health of our rivers at the moment. The fact that Murray cod are pushing so far upstream highlights just how healthy out rivers are.
