Re: Yellabelly i caught today...
Hi BC, never caught one or seen one, except in pics, but they look like fat buggers - almost look
like a fat yellow barra! How do they rate on the fang compared to some of the fish we see? (obviously can't be too bad otherwise you would bother putting them on the table).

Yep Graham they are called Callop in Crow country 
Also called Golden Perch
Give a nice fight early on depending on size.
Used to target em in Albury.Lake Hume

Re: Yellabelly i caught today...
yes they were pretty good eating.. not the same as goldie or nice saltwater barra,, but i think way better than swamp barra... the creek was running so they were not landlockedTrier wrote:Hi BC, never caught one or seen one, except in pics, but they look like fat buggers - almost look

Callop on the murray are great eating, never tried plastics though, usually find them deep on snags or in holes, they usually go for shrimps over worms i reckon.
