If you can a biggish boat to put on the mooring and a dingy or kayak to get out to it is ideal otherwise you are either swimming to the mooring or waiting for tides etc to get out.

What an awesome weekend for the kids

Bloody great looking Bluey

Far out......I need to go to spec savers.

Is it true - correct me if I am wrong
If you hook and boat a Cod - then release - its going to die anyways ???
Or is that just excuse rhetoric from a few hungry chaps that I know (including me :-(

If it is mouth hooked and handled well with a wet towel and quickly released it should be fine....however a huge percentage of people who fish are not capable of handling a fish or removing a hook so they get squished to death and cooked on the side of a hot boat then released....those ones dont stand much chance of survival.

I have release a fair few cod and they seem to power their way back to the depths if handled properly.

I dont know if they died after that but haven't seen them come back up or birds working them if they have.
