Gerkens Boys Fishing and Boat Hire

Now that Cod season has ended, I’d like to take the time to thank Taco Tackle and Gage wright/Spin Wright for everything they’ve done for us.
We only got back down south for the last few months of the Cod season and after spending the past 5 and a half years up north chasing Barra we didn’t own a cod lure anymore.
The boys at Taco Tackle and Gage wright/Spin Wright stocked me up and helped me out with everything I needed, I can’t thank you boys enough for all your support.
All our fish were caught on the fluffball in various colours and the swim jigs so jump online and stock up as the cod season will be here before we know it.

We look forward to the season opening again, we are excited for what the future holds and what we can achieve.🎣🤙🏻

Another great day at a local river,
With most rivers flowing fast and very dirty so we are lucky to have a river that’s still fishable.

The guy’s putting in the time and effort into stocking are doing a great job.💪🏻

The Spinwright Lures swim jig getting all the nibs this trip.🎣🤙🏻

Some more fish from the past few weeks, have had to move rivers and sections of rivers to stay in the best possible water.

Just got home from a few days at a local river chasing Murray Cod, Was good to find one that’s pretty clean with most of the rivers flowing flat out and very dirty.

The Spinwright Lures fluffball was the stand out lure, as always getting every fish we put in the net.🎣🤙🏻

Took Bart out for night on the dam, fish were super deep but having both livescope modes makes a big difference.
After jumping off 3 fish, finally put some in the net.
Fish were caught off the forward mode and / combo.🎣🤙🏻

Had Brett out for a session from NSW, his goal was to land his first Barra on a rod.✅
After landing a few over the metre and jumping a few more off he went home with a big smile on his face and something he won’t forget in a hurry.🎣🤙🏻
