WHAT WE SPECIALISE IN
Guiding
My guiding preference revolves around the peak cod bite windows, enhancing the likelihood of catching a cod or yellow belly. While dawn and dusk are the preferred times, there are occasional opportunities for longer bite windows.

TESTIMOnials
For a trouty I’ve always been interested in chasing cod on fly but didn’t really know where to start.
For the last few years I’ve spent a day or 2 each season with Ben from Ozzy Native Flies chasing these elusive beasts. Not only has he watched me catch my first cod on fly but he’s also helped improve my casting technique with bigger rods and even bigger flies. He’s always keen to part his knowledge and try different things when the fishing gets harder. I can’t recommend Ben more highly for the novice or advanced fly fisher.
Simon Hall
Ben knows a great deal about fly fishing for Murray Cod in rivers; from where they sit, to how they behave, to techniques and what flies work he is totally on point.
If you’re new to chasing this species, I highly recommend using Ben to put you on the right path and really flatten the learning curve.

He was very patient with me as I learnt how to cast them. He showed me what to look for structure wise.
Having never fished for cod before, Ben took the time to show me just how to cast. He was very patient with me as I learnt how to cast them. He showed me what to look for structure wise. We rested till late afternoon and then started fishing. I caught my cod that evening. The following morning we went for a fish together and even though he was not guiding me he still took the time to instruct me and help me onto more fish. I had an awesome time. Ben as a guide is very knowledgeable and patient. I would recommend Ben as a guide to anyone any time. You will have such a good time for sure.

LEARN ABOUT BEN
I have been an avid fisherman for as long as I can remember, starting with a simple bamboo pole, no reel or runners, and catching my first fish alongside my late father. Over the years, I progressed from bait fishing to live bait, then to lure fishing, and finally embarked on my fly fishing journey in the mid-90s in Victoria. During a five-year stint in SA, I explored fly fishing for saltwater species in the summer, giving the trout a break from the heat. While some saltwater fish were common, it was the challenges and success for fishing for mulloway that stood out as the highlight.
