EP57: The Cod Commandments

🎣 COD TALES PODCAST 🎙️2025 RECAP • CHRISTMAS • RIVERS • PBs • WHAT’S NEXTThis one’s a proper sit-down yarn.No rush. No egos. Just looking back on a year that gave us everything — the highs, the heartbreaks, the quiet nights, and the moments that make it all worth it.🔥 2025 wasn’t just about fish numbersIt was about time on the water, time with mates, learning rivers properly, and earning every bite.💥 Big moments this year• Metre-plus cod• Surface eats that still live rent-free in our heads• Watching mates land PBs they’ve chased for years🎯 Azz’s yearPB trout. PB barra. Two different fisheries. Two massive achievements. Proof that the grind pays off.🌊 Cod opening & river realityNot a smash fest — but honest fishing.Early surface windows. Weedless surface becoming essential. Slower presentations winning. Timber, edges, and patience holding fish.Some nights it’s one bite… and that one bite is everything.🚤 Dane & the new boatHe’s closer than ever — and when it happens, Cod Tales levels up. New water. Bigger trips. More chaos.🧠 Mental health & the Cod Tales communityWhat started as mates talking fishing turned into something bigger.Real conversations. Lure auctions. Fishing as therapy.If this pod helped one bloke through a rough patch — that’s the win.🎄 Christmas check-inThis time of year isn’t easy for everyone.Check in on your mates. Slow down. Get outside. Wet a line. Speak up if you need to.🔮 Looking to 2026✔️ Bigger guests✔️ More river breakdowns✔️ More technique talk✔️ More mental health initiatives✔️ More trips✔️ More honestyTo everyone who listened, shared, messaged and supported — thank you.From all of us at Cod Tales: Merry Christmas, stay safe into the New Year…🎣 One more cast is never just one more cast.We’ll see you in 2026.
