It's worth it.
Geez I love watching cod strikes!
#gotimmy#teabagging goodoo

PS Please turn down the volume, Timmy gets a bit excited! Big time. :yahoo:
PPS I would recommend using a glove on a fish like this. #codthumb

Just to put it into context, Timmy goes back all the way to April 2016.
He had an idea, well I think he did, and had a go.
A few ups and downs along the way have provided some interesting viewing.
(this is reality TV, not bachelors, blockers, brides or cooks. No manufactured tension or bs here)
Yeah, he lives up north where the weather is warmer and there might be a greater variety of species to target, but there are still options down in Vic.
Have a crack and see what happens!
Oh, maybe wait till the water temp warms up a bit and the bloody winds stop! :lol:

Timmy doesn't seem to have a 'I'm not sure about this' filter. :D
I subscribe and wish him all the best.
You have to support the younger ones that have a crack and put a smile on your face when you watch their battles.

Gorge country is definitely on my radar. I did close my eyes when the hand went in the gills to lift the fish though.

On mine too. Except most of the spots I have looked at require some serious 4wding and some mountain goat experience.
So I sort of gave up. Adam has posted quite a few trips into that area and they all looked fantastic.
I thought you might like the clip :thumbsup:
Yeah, that deep hand grip into the gills.................... steady on there fella.

I came across the turtle while watching a rokkit video, then explored some of his videos he certainly gives it a go, what a great catch who would think to drop a lure into that crack? :up:

Just because you cast into the right spot, it doesn't mean they are going to bite.
You have to annoy them enough to have a lash at a lure.
When it gets cooler and they slow down a bit, they still have to eat.
But really? That crack?
Go Timmy

Update on Timmy Turtle.................
Apparently YouTube has somehow 'altered' the algorithm that monetizes clips and somewhere along the way he has been missing out.
See his explanation on his Instagram feed:https://www.instagram.com/p/CH6UIiQn520/
Anyway, try his new vid on the Timmy Turtle Fish link:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB69eB ... MBA/videos
Very nice tailing mundy !
Enjoy :thumbsup:

PS In the new clip he is fishing with Matt @ https://www.youtube.com/user/boarhunta89/videos
Matt has mastered the surface casting to tailing mundy.
Lots of time put into that technique for sure.
