local young gun Jesse Baron has been fishing the Barwon river lately. He has been doing well on redfin and estuary perch using shallow diving and mid diving hard body lures. Recently Jesse decided to have an afternoon targeting some carp after seeing a lot of carp surfacing whilst targeting other species. Armed with some corn kernels and a heavier rod outfit than normal. Jesse didn’t have to wait too long as he caught many Carp including a couple of large ones around 70cm in size. One, in particular, took almost 10 minutes to land and took a fair share of drag. These mighty mud marlins are often a very underrated sports fish.
The video of these catches can be seen here. Don’t forget to subscribe to Jesse’s channel to support him.
