I will say they are no longer made in that size and the smaller ones are not made the same as the originals  ;)

I preferred the purple colour. Is that a Mary from Cressbrook?

Dunno what sorta cod that is. Bit of a stripe through the eye.... hmmmmm Trout cod or trout cod / murray cod hybrid?
Will ask Harro some particulars when I'm talking to him next.

A close up of the mouth looks like a Trout Cod, but the colouring is Murray cod and the background looks like the back of Cressbrook.  My father and his mates swore ther were three differnt Cod breeds in the Ovens/Murray area.  The one they called a Blue Nose may well have been a Hybrid Trout Cod/Murray Cod.

Nice fish, and I'd have to agree, he's a hybrid, Trout/Murray cod cross, we catch a few here in the Murray on the odd occasion, the older gentlemen (back then) would call them Tiger cod.
Good lures too.
