Across the week they pulled in around 10 Murray cod between them, all taken on cheese, and with one of the crew landing his very first Murray cod.
Luke Daffy claimed the honours for the trip, with a solid 73cm cod - the standout catch of a relaxed and memorable week on the water.
Our other highlight catches go to Brendan East and Peter Willis, who spent some time on the Billabong Creek on January 12.
For the pair, grubs were the way to go.
Brendan got a 76cm cod, and Peter recorded a 69cm catch.
