Ep64 - Trent Freer: Fishing the Murrumbidgee River, Lake Mulwala & Lake Hume

Trent Freer is a local angler to Southern NSW and VIC and has spent the past 20 years chasing Murray Cod in places like the Murrumbidgee River, Lake Mulwala and many other small creeks. This was a great chat where we discussed a range of topics, including getting started on lure fishing, using lipless crankbaits in rivers and how to fish Mulwala in tough conditions.

Trent was happy to share his processes and what he has learnt about fishing over the many years of being on the water. At the beginning of the episode, we discuss one fish in particular that we were both lucky enough to catch, on sperate occasions, 3 years apart.
