Jeez Rohan, a couple of minutes into this video I thought you were bragging, then I realised you said you stepped on your bells. Mate, another good one with lots of action. Well done for removing more vermin.
Thanks heaps Wayne. They must have liked the early morning conditions, I went back there this afternoon and got 1 fish in 3 hours LOL. Looks like I'll be setting an alarm clock for some more early morning fishing sessions
Great session Rohan! Very entertaining to watch. I don't agree with those cynical scientists that fishos make no difference to carp numbers...you pulled out abput 10 ...that's 10 less mouths for that river to feed plus the millions of potential Carp you've stopped from those ones breeding. Good job.
Thanks so much Chris. Yeah I reckon you're right it does make a difference, even if it's just a small difference it's still a very good thing to remove as many as we can
Nice work mate cleaned out the carp that’s for sure nice yella to mate I got a couple of yellas in the Loddon this morning couldn’t lose a bait to save my life but had 4 cast with a spinner bait before I left and got two cheers for the video mate
Highly enjoyed it as always legend non stop action and mixed species 🎣💪 i think i left enough comments about on this one anyway 😅 so just a big thumbs up until the next one 👍
Awesome work mate. Action central, well done. I still reckon that Mirror Carp are the ugliest fish in the water. Haha Then again ... It might just be my reflection staring back at me. 🤣🤣🤣
Nice. Those carp did put up a good fight. I went out for a quick drive to check out the Campaspe at Elmore on the weekend and can see why you caught a few carp. There were carp feeding on the surface everywhere
Thanks Brenton, yeah they are going nuts around here at the moment, we had a huge spawn of furry caterpillars around the area this year and heaps are falling in from the trees, and the carp are happily swimming around sucking them all off the surface of the water lol. I reckon fly fishermen would have a field day on them at the moment
@@RKJFishingneed to get Robbie onto it I reckon That would make a great video seeing Robbie chase carp on fly You could try a weightless soft plastic if you have something that looks anything like the caterpillars 👍 In open space they are great fun on 4lb ultralight gear and that will allow you to throw weightless plastics 👍🎣
@RKJFishing bloody awesome. That's not fishing, mate,that's catching. The more mud marlins, you clean out the water way's the better. Awesome content . That was fire 🔥
Thanks again mate. Unfortunately I've only made a small dent in their population, I was down there again today and I could see hundreds of them swimming around lol
Thanks heaps Phil. I have tried using braid for bait fishing but I prefer mono as it gives me a bit of stretch for those big carp. I find 10lb mono is light enough that I can fight them effectively while still giving them a bit of room to have a run and make it fun to fight them, and the stretch gives a bit of leeway in case they pull too hard
Wow mate, what a awesome session. I fished Eppalock yesterday and caught about 35 reddies. I’ll have to try fish the campaspe a bit more. All the best mate
@RKJFishing I did and I'm happy to say I just finished watching the video, this video made me think of a video of yours from Bendigo when the Asian family took all the carp. I was imaging them their with you and being so happy.
Yes mate I sure am! Hoping to cast some lures around if the water isn't too dirty from the expected rain this week, otherwise I'll soak some cheese. Either way, hopefully I find some cod
Well done for the entertainment and taking more carp out of our river system.
No I'm not a morning person but I will make a exception for fishing.
Thanks heaps Gary. Hahaha yeah I'm gonna have to make the same exception I think!

LOL that's funny. Thanks heaps Mick
You're welcome @@RKJFishing just keep up the good content mate.
Windex cleans the mirror carp up good lol. Lovely spot mate, action central!
Hahaha. Thanks Joel
Well done Rohan, mud marlin oot of the waterways
Thanks mate. Fun to catch too!
That looks like a fishy spot to cast a line into, Rohan 👍🏼and bang! Two in a few minutes, fantastic mate. And more Mud Marlin gone and dusted lol 😂.
Thanks heaps Wayne. They must have liked the early morning conditions, I went back there this afternoon and got 1 fish in 3 hours LOL. Looks like I'll be setting an alarm clock for some more early morning fishing sessions
@@RKJFishing Good on ya, Rohan 👍🏼. You really baged out with that early morning session. Try it again and see how you go?
Just got up at 6am, that's the plan haha. Cheers Wayne

Thanks Michael! Wow well done, they must have really wanted those spinnerbaits!
'Somethin's tapping that!' That's what she said! ;oP
haha you're good at those
@@RKJFishing The puns yeah, but not much else! ;oP
Highly enjoyed it as always legend non stop action and mixed species 🎣💪 i think i left enough comments about on this one anyway 😅
so just a big thumbs up until the next one 👍
PS I forgot to mention the sores on the carp, I believe you had it correct, it's spawning plus moving through weirs and rocks I believe
Thanks heaps mate. I thought I had heard it was something to do with spawning, cheers
Awesome work mate. Action central, well done. I still reckon that Mirror Carp are the ugliest fish in the water. Haha Then again ... It might just be my reflection staring back at me. 🤣🤣🤣
hahahaha! Thanks Robbie
Hahaha I think it depends there are some really cool looking mirrors out there
Gave me a good laugh there Robbie
Hey rohan I hope everything is going well I can't wait for you to release more videos
Hey Josh all is well mate!! Ive had a hectic few months but I will be back for Spring!!!
@@RKJFishing absolutely awesome mate cannot wait and hopefully we can catch up and go fishing

@@bushfishncook2128 Not a bad idea mate! I might just try that
@@RKJFishing best of luck 🤞
Should make an awesome video
Excellent Rohan when they’re on they are on nice to catch a reddy
Thanks heaps Peter
Haven't seen it yet, but I already know it's going to be a ripper. Rohan, you never let us down. Bloody legend.
Thanks so much mate, enjoy!

@RKJFishing I know, mate, the Avaco is the same. You can only do your part, so thank you.
Hey Rohan, absolute carp madness great job. It looks like you are using mono on the rods, Have you ever used braid for bait fishing, and woud you ?
Thanks heaps Phil. I have tried using braid for bait fishing but I prefer mono as it gives me a bit of stretch for those big carp. I find 10lb mono is light enough that I can fight them effectively while still giving them a bit of room to have a run and make it fun to fight them, and the stretch gives a bit of leeway in case they pull too hard
Smashed it out of the park again, Rohan. Many thanks for yet another great video from you.
Thanks so much mate
1st of all what a great way to start a sunday arvo with a new vid . And also cracking fish! Awesome vid
Thanks so much mate
Great work Rohan.
Thanks heaps Glen
Great video Rohan, what a ripper session you had ! Well done.
Thanks so much Jacob
Wow mate, what a awesome session. I fished Eppalock yesterday and caught about 35 reddies. I’ll have to try fish the campaspe a bit more. All the best mate
Thanks Cooper! Wow well done mate sounds like a fun session! I need to fish Eppalock more often
Great video Rohan
Thanks Gus!
Great to get a bend in the rod. 😂😂😂😂
hahaha
Great session Rohan, guess you might be getting up a tad earlier then? Love that mirror carp, but it did remind me a little of Robbie 🤨
haha yeah I'll be setting an alarm nice and early Frank! It reminded you of Robbie? How?
@@RKJFishing You read his comment about the reflection?
Oh yeah I did, I didn't know you had though lol
Whats the difference with mirror carp? Just the scales? Is it like a mutation or something? Never seen one😂
They are indeed the same species! You're spot on it's a genetic mutation, not sure why it happens!
@RKJFishing awesome. Thanks for the reply mate. There ya go. Never seen one. Only really got right into fishin over the last year but. 👌
Shit hot bite mate you should send fishery’s a bill for cleaning up there river, or at least they can spring for a container of worms lol.
Hahaha thanks mate, yeah that would be alright aye!!
Watched until 16 and a half minutes, will have to finish the rest tomorrow. I'm tired
Haha no worries mate, hope you got a good sleep
@RKJFishing I did and I'm happy to say I just finished watching the video, this video made me think of a video of yours from Bendigo when the Asian family took all the carp.
I was imaging them their with you and being so happy.
Hahaha I wish that type of family would show up more often, it would make cleaning up the carp a LOT easier lol.
that is alot of big carp smelly thing they are
Haha yeah they sure are!!
Where abouts on the campaspe river do you normally fish ?
The stretch between Eppalock and Echuca mate
Got same yabby bait now ,are u going cod fishing on friday
Yes mate I sure am! Hoping to cast some lures around if the water isn't too dirty from the expected rain this week, otherwise I'll soak some cheese. Either way, hopefully I find some cod
Do u live in rochester
I live in the area
Herpes ha ha 🤣
hahaha
Could it be Carp herpesvirus?
I guess it's possible, I don't think they have released it yet though!? Doesn't mean it's not it though
I only know that it has been developed to reduce the carp plague - don’t know any details but hope it is effective against this pest.
It does sound good but I have my doubts, they released viruses decades ago to fight the rabbits, but there's still plenty of them around lol
