| Tips Trout are a very shy fish that feed mainly on small crustaceans and insects. When fishing for trout it pays to let the trout run with the bait before striking, it also pays to use small baitholder and suicide pattern hooks to present your bait. Another great way of catching trout is spinning with small minnow or bladed type lures. | ||

| Cod and Yellowbelly | General running rig Bottom rig | Yabbies Bardi Grubs Worms |
| Tips Cod and yellowbelly are native species of Australia inhabiting many lakes and rivers where they live very close to structure such as sunken timber and rockwalls. When fishing for cod and yellowbelly it is important to get your bait as close to the timber as possible as they wonÕt move far from their homes to eat a bait. Lure fishing is another extremely successful method for catching cod and yellowbelly. The lures used are ones that dive very deep and have a strong swimming action, as with bait fishing it is important to get your lure as close to the snag as possible. | ||
