Ajing fishing in Auckland city

[@fishy1124asher]

小弟很快會來奧克蘭讀書 期待過來玩這些魚種❤🎉

[@markhoffman9655]

Inspiring video - haven't fished the wharf for years - obviously there are good fish around.

[@aaronsun1659]

Nice effort, I love how your fishing buddy says diu nei every time you got fish on

[@johneichelsheim4635]

Nice work. Shame all those little snapper are allowed to flap around on the hot, dry concrete, though.

[@falatoronto]

Nice work, thanks for sharing.

[@lapatoa]

Awesome vid! This looks like a good challenge

[@a.r.t.4611]

Hope you let the under size ones go back into the sea??

[@wilsonmangubat5487]

good catch mate! 🎣

[@JapoDomingo]

cool session bro. :) looks fun as.

[@craigpalmer3474]

Great vid. Well done

[@064pointbreak]

You might need a drop net to bring the fish up

[@EZfishingNZ]

I got a big drop net, just too lazy to use it every time haha

[@dhanAdventuresNZ]

Good spot and nice catch

[@justinleongjoonmengfmss6965]

ajing does not use braided line and not 13lb it’s usually 2.3lb polyester or highest 3lb esther line

[@zelenang3537]

Great video mate! Good hook ups but for ajing you drag looked a little tight

[@EZfishingNZ]

Yeah because it’s on the wharf with heaps structures, and I was targeting snapper and trevally, need a tight drag and stronger rod. I lost so many fish before, If I was on a boat or kayak that’s different story.

[@BaramNaphtali77]

Great video 💙

[@madangryfisherman]

Cool video as always

[@wilwonkaloompa]

Nice video man. Can you make a video tutorial on how to effectively use the soft bait. I tried many times but i always ended up with no bite.

[@EZfishingNZ]

What kind of fish u targeting on soft bait?

[@wilwonkaloompa]

@@EZfishingNZ im always aiming for a snapper and trevally. Mostly i fish on kawakawa bay wharf and tried the soft bait for my short rod while waiting for the bite on my long fishing rod. I inspired again how you catch a fish using soft plastic.

[@EZfishingNZ]

Trevally actually like micro jig better, I found it easier to catch them with micro jig. The trick for snapper is to go slow, move ur softbait as slow as it can be, u can jig a few times but after that jigging action I usually stop moving for like 10 seconds or longer, they love to pick up softbait from the bottom. Also the jig head u should go as light as possible, just enough to feel it reaches the bottom. Usually I use 1/8 oz jig head if no current just 1/16, stronger current 1/4, but I usually get significantly less bites on 1/4oz jig head, I’m talking about shore fishing, 1/4 is perfect for boat fishing.

[@wilwonkaloompa]

Thanks man. Can't wait to hit the wharf this weekend and try the soft bait. Good luck to your upcoming vlogs. Have a blessed day to you and your family.

[@captainsplashnz]

Hi man just saw this now and am also having the same struggles, what softbaits and micro jigs would you recommend for wharf fishing at this time and are there any locations you’d recommend around Auckland?

[@NZgookster]

Wow so many hook ups. Great work. I go their with my kids but dont have much luck. Can you share what you are using?micro jig or soft baits?

[@EZfishingNZ]

It’s some small softbait, I put it in the video, bottom right corner

[@sajjadanwarnz]

good catch

[@thenzwarriors]

Nice video !! What size hook do you use and do you have a jig head or sinker on the line??

[@EZfishingNZ]

Yes, I was using some 2g jig head, 6#hook, forgot to put them in the video

[@saman8388]

Hi. I've been enjoying your video recently. Great vids! Was wondering about your setup (reel and rod). I'm starting to get into your style of fishing plus eging. Any recommendations would be great also. Thanks in advance!

[@EZfishingNZ]

Glad u enjoy my videos, thanks. I used the my egi rod for ajing as well, which is Shimano sephia BB 83ml, reel was stradic 2500, with Daiwa 12braid 16lb strength I think, 13lb leader. Thats not what people usually use for ajing, people usually use 6-8lb leader I think, I suggest u try egi rod for ajing first, coz u can fish for squid in winter as well, if u wanna go a bit lighter, I recommend Shimano Dialuna S86L-S, better action, and it’s solid tip u can feel better

[@saman8388]

@@EZfishingNZ thanks for the reply! Is Dialuna eging rod as well? I was actually looking for rod and reel suitable for both eging and ajing. How do you find 2500 reel? I was initially looking at 3000 reel. Also, do you have experience with Vanford 3000 reel (replacement to Stradic)? What do you think of it? TIA!

[@saman8388]

@@EZfishingNZ and also, which reel would you recommend to match with Dialuna S86LS?

[@EZfishingNZ]

Vanford is kind of the new Stradic, if u can’t find 2500 just get c3000, I got a 1000 for my Dialuna that’s because I mainly target trout and salmon with it.

Hi, I saw you the other day, I asked you if you can catch a Kingfish with that set lawl =)

[@EZfishingNZ]

Sorry I don’t remember anyone talked to me, u probably talked to my friend, which was using the similar setup as mine

[@jasontom8778]

師兄,真係堅!

[@jasontom8778]

師兄，可否分享下用什麼假餌嗎？ 我淘寶搵下🙏🏻

[@EZfishingNZ]

好细既软虫咯。无所谓边款。动作要慢就得。最近5系季节你去都无鱼。等11月之后

[@sajjadanwarnz]

I tried here but only small snapper's

[@EZfishingNZ]

It’s not the season yet, the good time for this spot is late summer, I wouldn’t go for any other season, not worth it

[@ceruleanx5364]

do you ever need to apply scent to your soft baits and jig heads?

[@EZfishingNZ]

No, u just need to be there the perfect timing, different fish show up the same season, same depth(light positions on that wharf) and almost same conditions (tide, morning, afternoon, windy, rainy or sunny). I used to live near there and fished that spot more than 1000times for the last couple years and I recorded most of my fishing trips, also the exact time I got fish there, so now I kind of know when I got the best chance to catch something there. For example, few years ago, there’s one week I was getting kingy at same spot every day the same time (1.5 -2hours after low tide in the afternoon, and can’t be perfect sunny day) then next year u just go the same condition, that will increase ur chances.

[@lookbook27]

was this around march? I went a few days ago and there were nothing but kahawai and hammerheads

[@EZfishingNZ]

Yeah, like all other spots in city, more fish come in around or after Christmas.

[@jasetheace8173]

Nice Vid! Do you know if bayswater is open yet?

[@EZfishingNZ]

Sorry I dunno, haven’t been there for a year…

[@coolasfishing]

Still closed sadly, I visited about a month ago. I hope they open again soon

[@EZfishingNZ]

@@coolasfishing I have a feeling that they might never open to public again lol…

[@coolasfishing]

@@EZfishingNZ I also have that feeling but I will always remember that spot from the day I got the softbait from you and went there and got legal size snappers for dinner

[@EZfishingNZ]

U could try the dock at high tide just next to the marina, could get some legal ones there sometime

[@jpo-artwork]

Mean session bro, hope you don’t mind but just wondering where you got soft baits from?

[@EZfishingNZ]

Brought them back from China, it’s not AliExpress, and it’s got no brand, I don’t think they make them anymore, I asked before tried to get more. I only bought about 30 packs of them

[@4726052]

So good!! What rod is that? Its not an ajing rod is it? Looks like its got good backbone for the trevs.

[@EZfishingNZ]

It’s a egi rod, shimano sephia

[@4726052]

@@EZfishingNZ ah. Nice! No wonder. I was thinking of my aji rod and how it would be bending in half on some of those catches. Hope to run into you at one of the spots so I can learn something 😁 Keep up the great videos. 👍

@@EZfishingNZ not afraid to snap the rod with use of a landing net especially for the 40cm trev off a high wharf? haha

[@EZfishingNZ]

The trick is to wind and get ur rod tip close to the fish first, then u just lift and use that inertia, don’t stop, but I don’t recommend to do this if u don’t know the limit of the rod.
