What Fishing Gear Do I Need For Murray Cod?

Catching Murray Cod can be a frustrating exercise given the ambush predator owns the waterways in which it resides, and only comes out to eat when they feel like it. Some trips you will have bite after bite and others you may not see any action for days. Despite this, being prepared with a solid rod and reel combo able to tackle the power of a Murray Cod, think a 6-10kg rod with a larger spinning or Baitcaster reel is essential, as is deciding which fishing lures you will put on the end of your line, with ample options available to change your tactics if required.
