@@mrdisbane AT 1 mate

Thanks mate, 400mm below the surface. I’ve got the transducer on a zero degree mount which makes all the difference

Thanks you!

I have a 12 and 16 I switch them round a bit Sometimes I run both up the front with scout and forward mode

We are doing the kids comp too

Cheers mate much appreciated 👍

Thanks mate, it’s bloody hard work getting the footage and then editing it all together

I’m targeting the fish in the top meter of water here but at 20m range the beam will be around 4.5m deep at 18degrees beam angle. If the fish go off the screen when they get closer to the boat they are deeper

Cheers, AT 1

Thanks for response mate 👍

do you even bring any fish home to eat or do you do it for the sport

@@JosephPossingham it’s for the sport for me but on occasion I’ll bring a couple home

Thanks mate, got to wear them out first

The boat is a Blazer Bay 2220 professional. In this video I’m switching between a Daiwa Double Clutch 115 suspending and a 6.5 inch pre rigged soft plastic

am going shady camp this week end any tips i can have👍@@OldSon_Fishing

Seems to be a lot of water coming down sampan, I’d head to Tommy cut and target the run in tide

You can definitely see them on side scan but it would be very hard to target them casting. I use sidescan to find areas where the fish are then drop the AT in to cast at them

Thank you 👍

Thanks mate, it’s a bit of a learning curve at the start but you won’t look back once you figure it out 👍

Cheers Beau will do

I’m using a surface fizzer and then a shallow crank bait I’ve got the transducer on a zero degree mount so it looks out across the surface of the water. At night the feeding fish tend to be higher up in the water column looking for bait

I’m using Daiwa J Braid Expedition 40lb Pe3 braid, 60lb leader, Daiwa Zillion 7.3:1 reel and a 23 TD commander Duckfin rod

AT 1

Do you use the shallow mount for the transducer or the angled one for deeper water? Cheers.

I’m using a fish obsessed dominator zero degree mount for scout mode, the transducer is looking out flat with the surface of the water

@OldSon_Fishing ok too easy, I'm using the same mount on my livescope that's fitted to my big boat but just fitted up an AT2 to my little tinny. Cheers for the replies. Enjoying your clips with the split AT1 screen and you catching. It's awesome. Thanks.

No worries, thanks mate

Not last Saturday but the one before

Thanks mate, yeah bigger is better in this case. 12 inch screen does everything you’ll want

There’s still some lag but I think it’s a good thing for me because it stops be striking to early

Daiwa Double Clutch hard body and 6.5 shimma pro plastic

Yeah I haven’t noticed too much of a difference, although a fish facing towards you will be more inclined to chase a soft plastic, where as a suspending hard body worked slowly the Barra has time to turn and catch up with it

Yeah crazy amounts seen, very low percentage hooked😅

Thanks mate

Lowrance HDS Live 12 and 16

@@OldSon_Fishing I know the 16" would be better...the 12 would be sufficient ??

The 12 is perfectly fine to see everything

The bleeding mullet colour is good, also you can’t go past gold, there’s a pearl one that caught me a heap of fish and there’s a green one with stripes that works well too

@@OldSon_Fishing in other words nearly every colour they all work 😂

The best lure is the one that swims past the fish’s face

Thanks mate

I always look at water temperature, especially in the dry season/cooler months, bait on the surface is always a good sign, fish will sit in eddies and along current lines, Egrets along the bank are a good sigh there’s bait there. The Active Target makes a big difference to finding fish too. You can pull up, have a Quick Look with it and move on if nothing is there

@@OldSon_Fishing so true I’ve been using live scope for a while now but it has made me realise even though u can see the fish doesn’t mean u can catch them on them days where they just bite nothing

Good question! You can catch Barra on any tide, you need to fish certain places on certain tides, some fish move up and down with the tides so on a big tide I’ll go right up a creek or river on the top of a tide or towards the mouth on the low. Neap tides the fish don’t move as far up and down, it’s just using your electrics to find where they are. Also each river and creek is different in its characteristics and the fish will behave differently according to their environment and food source. It’s time on the water working all these things out to get an understanding of what is happening in each area, eventually you start piecing it all together

I only really use a handful of lures these days. The Double Clutch 115 suspending is my go to lure, also the suspending Current master in the cooler months. I like a 6inch soft plastic rigged with a stinger hook and the same in 5 inch And at night I love to throw a Fizzer around

@@OldSon_Fishing thank u very much ! I highly appreciate jy

@@OldSon_Fishing what soft plastic brand would u recommend when using softies I usually just go for the 6.5inch Berkeley shims pro

Yep you can go wrong with those

Thanks mate, the transducer is set at zero degrees (parallel) and I keep the range set at 20m

Legend! Thank you 🙏🏼
