Thanks mate! Yeah it's been windy in Brissy as well as you can hear in the vid. I'm hoping to improve my videos this year and film some better trips!

Thanks!

@@GulpAction id love to but I think I'm a bit too far north for salmon! I've been hoping to do a rock fishing video soon but stuff keeps going wrong and I never get to go 😂

@TheFlattyhole thanks mate

@@GulpAction thanks mate!

Thanks mate, yeah I got the nasci for Christmas and bought the rod with my Christmas money!

Thanks so much mate!

@TheFlattyhole thanks mate, you too

Thanks bro!

@@GulpAction thanks bro! It's the first Flatty I've caught in months lol

I'm tryna catch fatties with lures but no luck. I haven't caught them in months

​Yeah it's been really slow for me so I'm happy to get that one

@JamTheGreatFishing thanks alot bro!

Thanks alot mate! Just got back now, the fishing was alright there but I didn't end up landing any keepers or kingfish . In a few days I'm leaving for 1770 and I'm hoping to do a bit pelagic fishing off the rocks Mabey!

@ 1770 is bloody awesome mate! Me dad and a few mates did a charter out of they’re, they caught heaps of rep emperors, cod and heaps of other reef fish!

​@TobysfishingNoutdoorsyeah it's great! I might be going to this place called the catwalk. It's basically a rock you can fish off on the headland and people have landed big Spanish Mackerel and tuna there.

Thanks mate! I'll try and do some pelagic fishing soon, it's just not as consistent for me. I'm in new Zealand right now so in few days I'll be going out on the boat targeting snapper and stuff. I'll make a full video about that as well!

Yes! I'm excited!

@TobysfishingNoutdoors thanks alot! The next day I ended up catching a big catfish in the same spot and it left the same slime on my leader as the fish I lost. I don't know for sure but I can assume it was a catfish. Id like to believe it was a big flatty but I don't think I'm lucky enough for that 😂

@ do catfish live in saltwater?? Were you filming?

Yeah I'm going to upload it as a short but it was only because of the excessive rain we have been having in Queensland and the water was mostly fresh. It wasn't an eel tail catfish it was a blue catfish or something like that

Thanks mate ! Looking forward to the new channel

@AshtonsfishingOfficialthat’s sick dude I wish I could have come!🤩

Thanks bro, really appreciate it 😊

Thanks mate. The rig I was using was a pretty basic hook, swivel and sinker rig. Got a heap of bites but I think they were mostly too small that day. Good luck with learning how to throw the net. Took me a few days of throwing it in the yard to get it to open properly 😂

Somehow hooked it on a tiny bit of herring

Nice one I think I’ve done that a couple of times to

@AshtonsfishingOfficialthe bream and the crab look sick

@maxscootzaround thanks!

@AshtonsfishingOfficial no problem how did you get the crab though nice one bro 🔥🔥🔥

Just my friend running with the line tied to his backback 😂

@AshtonsfishingOfficial lol, no wonder

​@@Munie6363 thanks! Depends what your budget is for a good rod but I highly recommend the one Im using in the video. I am thinking about doing a full video on all my rods soon as well!

What rod are you using in the video

And can you PLS shout out my channel in your next video

​@@Munie6363 The rod is a diawa beefstick Z. The size I have got is 7 foot 6 to 10kg but there are many different sizes

Thanks a lot man! It's when they pull a lot of drag that makes me think it's a tuna. In my opinion tho I would be happier with the cobia than I would with a little Mac tuna.

@@GulpAction thanks a lot man!

Thanks a lot man, part 2 this weekend I think

Thanks a lot man! Hope you enjoyed!

Nice!

@@TobysfishingNoutdoors yeah I believe so, I call them Moses perch but I think they are the same thing as fingermark

@@AshtonsfishingOfficial Fingermark and Mangrove Jacks are a close cousin to Moses Perch, Fingermark live much further up north, Mangrove jacks live in between southern and northern waters while Moses perch are more Southern

Thanks bro!

@@maxscootzaround about 10 minutes of reeling it in!

@@AshtonsfishingOfficial wow good job!!!!!

@@TobysfishingNoutdoors thanks man!, yeah the beefstick is going great, so far caught a mackerel and the ray and it's holding up great! I would highly recommend one especially if you are fishing for big pelagics

Thanks a lot man, I'm not too sure of the line weight because I bought the rod tip off eBay and made the handle myself but it is insanely bendy and I can wrap the tip around my finder with ease 😂 I was running 4lb like with 4lb leader and even with that it was a bit hard to cast. A tiny sinker bends the rod almost 90 degrees.

Thanks max!

@@AshtonsfishingOfficial all good
