Its time to let go of the hair 😂😂😂 accept your fate

[@kobyrohde1762]

I just got home from footy training and seen you had a video up and just thought YES YES YES YES You make my day every time you upload keep going doing your best and just think you are doing it because you love it and we love it Love it

[@benscott6311]

My home river. Slow trawling lures will get you plenty

[@lukefalzon]

what lures are good for trawling ?

[@benscott6311]

@lukefalzon anything you can trawl slow so go big bib. I have got them on little 35mm lures fishing for bream or 110mm targeting them. My favourite way is to cast vibes at them on dusk. You can hear them croaking through the hull

[@Fishingtightlines]

Definitely have the right idea brother, you want to run about 30-40lb braid setup tied to a swivel from there you want to a 1m to 1.5 mono leader using a lighter leader is definitely more efficient!! (20-25lb) then with a running ball sinker depending on the depth of water you want to try use light as sinker as you can but at the same time being mindful that you want your bait staying down in the water column. Make sure you have your drag really loose because as soon a mulloway feel any weight they will spit the bait hence why you want a small running ball sinker. Next you want size 5 circle hooks to a snell rig, only time you tighten the drag is when it start peeling line off your reel let it run with it for 10 to 15m then tighten drag enough to set the hook!! And when you set the hook really set it strike the rod!!!! , Mulloway are very elusive and hard to catch they will play with the bait for a long time before they run with it( PATIENCE IS KEY! 🔑) always have the fish head facing towards the ground so hook the bottom hook with the head ether in the nose or just in-front of dorsal fin as they always go for the head first!! and look for the deepest pockets in the estuary or river systems. Mulloway frenzy will happen long as you're fishing on the in coming tide not the out going. The bait you used has known to catch mulloway on occasion but your best bait is live mullet or a fresh fillet of tailor. Burley up the water get all the fish active mulloway will hear and feel the vibrations and follow the scent of your burley. Plenty of mullet down there to man use bread crumbs with a dash! of fish oil just enough to make a doughy like consistency chuck in the water you'll get lots of mullet come in. 8 times out of 10 of your fishing in a river or estuary and your seeing fish jumping its mullet so just use a cast net a land it on top of them mate. You're in wicked country down and all around there good luck man you're a f**cking legend! P.S if you hook onto a decent mulloway HOLD ON! 🤣🤣👌🏽 Oh and look at my comment on your video you made one month ago man “I survived 3 days eating only what I catch” , I have suggested a wicked fishing spot for you as you’re in the area!

[@Scaly-Boys]

use a double snell with a running star sinker and put one hook through the mouth/lips of the fish and one through the back. night fishing's better for them on a full moon. they are also super aggressive on soft plastics especially smaller ones on the 3- 5 inch range just hop or slow wind it across the bottom. if your beach fishing ffind a deep gutter to cast in

[@lukefalzon]

ok brother thank you for the heads up bro i will keep that in mind man

[@NotSlack.]

hey luke mate been watching for a while. wyhen ur live bait fishing u wanna let the fish run for roughly 5 seconds so count to 5 then tighten your drag and hook the fish. but if it stops pulling drag re count. hopefully that helps👍

cheers for the heads up man thank you

[@robcarroll2403]

I use circle hooks and rig up like you do, I just let the fish run a lot longer and you’ll know when it’s hooked trust me haha. I’ve caught plenty of big Jews, snapper and threadys using the running sinker and single hook. I usually fish of a night time or real early in the morning.

Just keep putting in the hours brother I’ve put in countless fishless hours but the one good fish always makes it worth it mulloway are a very elusive fish and definitely one of the hardest to catch in wa but if you and the fam stop around Bunbury Perth or Jurien bay I’ll be keen to come down and we will get onto some snapper or a ghost around the metro area 🤙🏻❤️

hey luke ive noticed you are doing everything great just when using circle hooks they hoot the fish themselves so wait until the fish completely eat the bait and do a good run and do not strike that will pull the hook out. but everything is looking great keep it up you will get one. yeeewwwwww!!!!

[@jaydenperry2184]

Good work mate

[@user-zt5if7vt8m]

If it was me and i was using circle hooks i would have the drag loose, let the fish take it and swim with it, after im confident its swimming away from me, id put some tension on the line so the circle hook can turn around and hook the side of the mouth. Once you feel good resistance, you're on boy!

[@ThatFishKid78965]

Try a double snell rig. Put one hook near the head and one near the tail.

[@andrewfishingadventure2626]

You hook the live bait too far back, hook it behind the head of the fish.

[@lukefalzon]

i did that on the first fish man cheers for the heads up man

[@BushTuned]

Open bail. Let out a few metres. Thats how i do muy mudeye trout fishing on float

[@lukefalzon]

ok brother cheers for the heads up man, where are you from?

[@user-di2bx3sj2r]

Btw trumpeter dont rlly work as live bait that good, for molloway i recommend using bit chunks og bait for for live bait use herring or yellow tail

[@lukefalzon]

Where can I get some yellow tail from?

[@user-di2bx3sj2r]

@lukefalzon usually of jetty and mainly salt water they are rlly smal so they are hard to catch

[@hanna2nv]

What knot are you using for the circle hooks? A snell knot or loop knot are generally better knots to help the hook turn. Also fresh squid is gun jewie bait or fresh salmon/tailor

[@hanna2nv]

Also river bends are your best friend when chasing jewies

[@hanna2nv]

I didnt finish watching. The trumpeter was hit by a jewie. The knot on the hook is most likely what let you down tho

[@thearkifact]

if you are fishing with truppies then you cut of the back fin were it spikey because the smaller mulloway grab it feels the spikes and drop it

[@shanesimmons4733]

Try using a n eagle claw 3/4 circle 5 or 6 I’ve found you get better hook up rate and let the hook do the work set ya drag and leave it alone mate I know you get excited but you’ll know when it’s hooked

[@stephenslideways9690]

i have to look into it bro cheers man

[@qmp666]

Simple tip to help you target species. Fish with big eyes are active when there is no moon. That's why they need BIG EYES. SO THEY CAN SEE. So squid. Silver Jew .mullaway. most palagics. Jew mouth their prey. So when they take it wait for the 3rd run . Then hit it. Flooding tide is best. However flathead fishing is best on a run out tide. Look in the sand at low tide and see the flathead lays. Always head into the current. Max food min energy

You should use a double treble hook like for pike or musky better hooking potential one on the head and one on the tail I think this will help you

Should be running two hooks and drag locked up to near your lines breaking strain. Don't give them a chance to spit it out.

[@sambosamuels4224]

Recon you should be running a leader of some sort..give the livies a chance to swim bro .I think running sinkers just bury the bait in the mud..and they die

bro never strike with circle hooks. only a slow lift to pull the into the corner of the mouth. keep on persisting though:)

[@richardthom7662]

Mate Jewish Mulloway generally make 2 runs. The first one the pick up the live bait and run with it. Then they will stop turn the bait in their mouth and swallow it which is the 2nd run. This is when you strike. Absolute minimum drag tension is required or they will drop the bait. This is my experience in catching them off the rocks n boat. The pro Jewish guys also share the same story

[@joshuaevans2853]

Get rid of the curclr hooks j hooks always when somthing takes a live bait well any big bait flip the bail arm do there is no resistance count to five slow and flip it over and set hooks , if you did that I grantee would would of got atleast one of those fish no more circle hook
