Aussie Bass Classic – Lake Sinclair 🎣🔥🌧️

What a weekend! We headed to the Aussie Bass Classic at Lake Sinclair and… well… it was eventful. Featuring legends Lachlan Latham & Mick Hayden, we copped rain, rain, and more rain 🌧️ but that didn’t slow the fun.

Az somehow lost his shirt, jumped over a fire (don’t ask), we got introduced to some “mini beers” 🍻, and found out the bilge pumps had decided to clock off when we needed them most.

Met some absolute cracking people, spun plenty of yarns, raffled off some gear, and put on a BBQ. Lachie Latham and the Aussie Bass Classic raised $3,200 for mental health 🙌 Huge thanks to everyone who chipped in – every dollar counts.

A weekend of laughs, fishing, and chaos… just how we like it 🤙

Rhys and Nick jump on the mic for an absolute ripper yarn from drifting a river with Az and Nick and landing a brute 89cm Murray cod, followed by 4 more over 70cm, to heading south to Crookwell chasing trout at Pejar Dam where the boys got stuck into some rainbows and Az landed a donkey brown on a Tassie Devil 🎯

Plenty of cod chat as always, why we love the hunt, the hits, and the heartbreaks 🎣💥

Plus, we’re looking ahead at some exciting events on the calendar:

🟢 Aussie Bass Classic

🟢 Mate v Mate

🟢 Teams Fishing Australia

Big fish, big laughs, and even bigger stories, tune in wherever you get your podcasts!

This week on Cod Tales, we go on a wild ride across species and state lines. We kick things off with a 28km-drift mission on the Macquarie, where some seriously well-conditioned cod kept us honest. Then it's off to an unnamed trout dam (no GPS pins here, sorry!) with a surprisingly friendly local town and a few slippery surprises. And just to round things out, we land a 91cm flatty during a mid-week work trip—proof that sometimes the best fishing happens when you’re meant to be doing emails.

Trout, cod, flathead—this one's got it all. Tight lines!

We’re talking about fishing stories that’ll make you snort-laugh, Mental health chats that hit deep (in a good way) The madness of tournament fishing,

The scientific benefits of roasting your mates and Fish facts so weird they sound fake (they’re not)

With so much more! We ditched the fishing to have a chat and let’s just say we had a time on the mics!

Whether you’re on the boat, in the ute, or hiding from your responsibilities — chuck it on and have a laugh with us.

G’day legends, and welcome back to Codtales — the podcast that proves you don’t need to catch fish to talk about ’em for an hour.

This week’s episode is fuller than a camp oven on Easter Sunday: we’re drifting down the river — slowly… painfully… like dragging a shopping trolley through mud. We hit the bush for an Easter fish and feed, tackled Teams Fishing Australia at Mul where the only consistent thing was inconsistency, and, most importantly, we ask the hard-hitting question:

Is taking a dump off the back of the boat really that different to doing it at home? Spoiler alert — it’s not. Except for the wind, the waves, and the fear of eye contact.

Strap in, drop anchor, and let the oversharing begin — this is Codtales!

Episode 43! This week, we are back from another week of fishing down south! As we packed the rods, the esky, and probably not enough common sense we headed down to the legendary Lake Mulwala for the Lake Mulwala Cod Nationals. It's all about big fish, bigger yarns, and seeing who can survive a week of early mornings, late nights, and a whole lot of fucking casting.

Strap in to the roller coaster that we had for the week at cod nats!
