So when you state East Gippsland what water way are you 🐟. There are a number of waterways in that region. An any chance of buying Jason's lures ?

The most surprising thing about this video is the use of "grouse" to describe a fish... I thought I was the only remaining example of that particular species. 😂

Hey Alan was wondering if you could give me your thoughts on the pryml inflatable fishing kayak and if it’s worth purchasing?

Z man minnow anything from 3 to 5 inch plastic in opening night colour , 1/4 ounce and 1/o is dominating the flattys around manns, DM me if you want locations , we are all here to enjoy fishing responsibly together , im happy to share spots

Gday Alan im hoping you can explain the action used on the white smaller mullet soft plastic, cheers
@fishingmadКүн бұрын
Working it slowly by casting, letting the plastic sink to the bottom then slow double hop lifting action and pause for 5 seconds to let it sink again, and repeating the process. I'm heading back that way soon and will endeavour to cover a bit more technique based content.

Nice fish and super dark in colour. Up here in the Newcastle nsw area unless they are caught up river in mangrove areas they are quite light in colour

I have fished for nearly every species in Australia and there’s nothing in the world that makes me happier other than catching a flathead on light gear, my pb is 86cm & they’re also my favourite fish in general. Thanks for the video 🔥🔥
@fishingmadКүн бұрын
Congrats 86cm is an amazing effort, ill be heading back in a few weeks and hoping to get one around that size. and I agree it really is a special form of fishing. Amazing species and great to do it in shallow locations with little swell

The only issue with carefully releasing rubbish fish is the fact that you have taken 10 quality fish out of the system. I am not saying there is anything wrong with taking fish at all. I just think that in general taking only quality fish and leaving rubbish helps to cause an imbalance in the fishery. Definitely a single fisher is not going to hurt the stocks by catching a feed. But I do think we all need to start to think about it. I fished as a kid and still fish today and I think the ratio of quality to rubbish fish far outweighs in favour of rubbish fish. At what point will the quality fish no longer be able to compete. Should we have more no go areas or a rolling system of no take places to give fish areas to regenerate. Just food for thought. Thanks for your advice and quality entertainment.

LOL I hear ya, before i landed that big one i lost one which may have been bigger boat side. The flattie shook its head and spat the hook, i was shattered.

Mate just a trick. You don’t need big lures. My PB is 82 caught off 3 inch lure paddle tail soft plastic don’t be afraid to use smaller Lures plus you’ll catch all your nice eating size fish still. Mallacoota is one of my favourite spots. Give that a try mate. I don’t really like Lake Tyers at the moment. Is that where you were? Fishing in this Vid?
@fishingmad2 күн бұрын
Yeah, I agree, I've caught some massive fish on smaller plastics and lures over the years, and it can be a lot easier when you're casting all day, too. Mallacoota is unreal. I fished a few times there last year and caught heaps of bream tailor, salmon and a few duskies, but I will venture back that way mid-year again. I appreciate the helpful comments
@truthbetold201217 сағат бұрын
True that I get 80+ fish all the time on 48mm Chubbies and 60mm double clutches got one today on a chub over 80..My PB 110cm came on a 60mm double clutch!...Rarely use anything over 75mm for em'...bit of hype the big lure thing but they smack em' ..I don't think you need em' just got to get it in their strike zone. Yeah Lake Tyers is choked with weed and packed with lure tossers.

a full arms outstretched length is more like 1.8 metres. interesting method of tying in the top sliding hook, havent seen that before the bottom hook doesnt need to be with that style of knot could have used a uni. palamor or locked blood knot easily instead of a snell. will see how it goes compared to snelling the slider and see how it stays together. many thanks
