Hey man. Anytime. Thanks for the sick tune.

Thanks man. Sometimes they work better as the pickle make them a bit tougher so the fish can remove it as easy as a fresh worm

Awesome man. Give it a try

Hi Fazludin, I like fishing with braid as it's more sensitive than mono, there is no stretch in braid so you don't have to pull forever to break off, and when u break off it's 99% of the time your hook or sinker. Braid leader gives your braid top shot protection if you cast over a mussel bed or if a fish takes u into the rocks. I like n short piece of mono between the leader and trace to keep the braid leader from tangling with your swivel and trace in rougher water. Hope it makes sense.

@@thebeardedfisher Thnx. U r the 2nd video I've seen with this. The other one was penn ambassador Mr Scheepers. Just did not fully understand. Makes sense now.

@fazludinsufeyan5748 awesome man. Happy to help.

Thanks man

Thanks Johan

Thanks man

Hi John, thanks man. No I'm in SA. Still have a lot of Oman footage that I need to upload.

Did you lose any sinkers on your last trip 😅

Hi Fazludin, No luckily I didn't love any due to getting stuck. Lost 2 on GTs though. One my knot pulled and the other one cut me off

Janee was n lekker dag gewees

Dankie man. Ja n Saltiga 8000. Baie solid katrol

Thanks man. Haha yeah on that day mine did too.

Thanks man.

Dankie man

Close to Strandfontein

Great man! Not easy to catch fish is those parts of the west coast! Eat about a video of a mission to Lamberts bay or elands bay?

@Mantie243 yeah I know. The last trip before this one I got 6 Galjoen and a Cape bream. Didn't expect anything, didn't even pack the filming gear. But this year it went a bit slow. I can definitely try Lambertsbay. Know of a few spots there.

I have a friend in lamberts that caught a young cobbie and 2 bus galjoen somewhere. But he keeps his spots to himself. Whant to make a mission there myself when I get a chance. Lots of unexplored areas from Lamberts up north

@Mantie243 yeah reckon there are some good spots up there

Thanks man. Anytime

Thanks Zubair. I'll definitely try to upload more often.

Thanks man. Yes you definitely could. Perhaps do 2 or 3 mussels then to have a bigger bait. But I have caught young cob on the 1st one as well.

@thebeardedfisher ok but speaking about kob now, I believe the kob season has passed...but where do they go now in the "off season" ?

Mostly elf hangouts and nightclubs ​@@deonzar

Deon, people say the silver Kob go offshore into the deeper water and the Dusky Kob generally migrate up the coast towards Transkei to spawn in the estuaries.

I'm in hout bay. There are pictures of the old days of kob being trek netted off the beach here. They say there's 5% of the population left..

Janee dit is so. Dankie

Thanks Ashley, will do man.

Hi. Yes I totally agree with you 💯

What beach stretch do you fish. Galjoen is my favourite. Sonce a boy in year 1969.... love it.

@@garylaubscher4487 Hi Gary. I fish for Galjoen all along our coast. But this was a section along the west coast close to Strandfontein

Dankie Deon

Thanks Matt

Hey man. Thank you. Yes it's very true. Fishing is like meditation. It helps to bring everything back into perspective.

Thanks man

Thanks man. Yes West Coast is a difficult place to fish but very rewarding if you manage to get something

Hi Juan. Dit was naby Strandfontein se wêreld. Jy kry hulle op die Weskus gewoontlik mooi vet en gesonde visse

​@@thebeardedfisher I visit Doringbaai once a year and drive past Strandfontein. Never tried fishing there. Heard the locals catch mostly hotties off the cliffs/ rocks not so safe though. Trying to figure out where this spot is, I'll check Google maps. Do you get steenbras there too?

@imtiyaz awesome man. You get Galjoen along that whole stretch. I have only seen steenbras caught at Lambertsbaai a long time ago. I recon they should be there.

@@thebeardedfisher thanks I normally take a small 9 foot or 10 foot rod along whilst travelling, will give it a try next time 👌🏽

@imtiyaz7965 hope u get something.

Hey man. Close to Strandfontein

Hey John. Thanks man.

Yeew Thanks man. Will do

Hi Glenn. The rod is a 12ft 2oz blue marlin fire series and the reel a Daiwa Certate 5000 with 20lb braid

Thanks Crazy

Hey man. Thanks so much. Really appreciate it

Haha yeah

Was lekker om n slag weer op die Weskus te hengel

Hi Danie. That's awesome. Very seldom do they get above 40cm on the West Coast.

Hi, its a gamble to be honest. Sometimes you will be lucky to find big clusters of sand aas. Best is to be there early in the morning after n nice storm and strong wind. There are guys collecting to sell so you have to beat them.

Awesome man. Hope it helps

Yes ja. Hoop dit help.

Thanks John

Hey Crazy. Thanks man. Yeah I have been busy, don't get time to go fish or edit. You must make a mission up the coast to Transkei or KZN. You can catch them there. Definitely worth it.
