This channel is about fishing swimbaits for big Murray cod in places like Copeton Dam through to Barramundi in impoundments like Lake Awoonga. In addition, my channel teaches tips and techniques to help you catch more fish. Mixed in will be some bass fishing techniques and tips for trout fishing. From my years of bass tournament fishing, I have learned to pay attention to detail, and the small things make a difference in catching a couple of fish or a lot of fish.

Thanks for tuning in legends, I had fun with this one. Hope you like the intro! A little bit different...

[@nathank8314]

Did a trip up there end of March. Was awesome, got a 94, 98 and of coarse lost the possible Metre at the boat. Did the helifish, epic day with Jock. And a charter with Barra or blue, Tom got us on some fish quick. If your a fisho, NT runoff is a bucket list trip🤟🤟

[@DeanSilvester]

It sure is mate, i wouldn't mind doing the heli fish thing next time i am up there. Sounds like a load of fun

[@estebanulloa8603]

Amazing trip and video! I am heading to Cobourg, NT next week. Hope to land at least one!

[@DeanSilvester]

Awesome mate, i am sure you will get a heap. good luck

[@neilwedlick9851]

[@DeanSilvester]

[@xaviersmith636]

Great video guys... We have a place here in Florida called Osceola Outback that have lakes stocked with barramundi.

[@DeanSilvester]

Sounds great! Have you been there? Are the fish very big?

[@waikarimoana]

This was a great freshwater fishing trip mate and a few BIGGENS landed too, tight lines and greetings from NZ,, Tony.

[@DeanSilvester]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for tuning in legend. How are the trout waters looking over there?

[@waikarimoana]

@@DeanSilvester Good day Dean, a few rivers are still high and discoloured but hopefully all will go beck to good old days soon.We are heading out to fish lake Tarawera.Awesome lake with good size Trout, last week we landed a two years old fish and it was 2.3 Kg, stunning rate of growth mate.Tight lines and happy fishing.

[@DeanSilvester]

wow only two years at that size, must be some great food source for them in there not just insects, good to hear about the rivers, i am very keen to get over there for a look with Jelena

[@jeremydoon9683]

Big silvey molix shad getting it done super sick lure man run off barra is a dream fishing session killer as allways

[@DeanSilvester]

Thanks legend, you should save up and plan it. Even if you start planning for two years time it is still planned and will happen. Worth it

Wicked mate!! Nice meter’y whole different level of fight then the pond barra😂

[@DeanSilvester]

Oh yeah! So fun.

[@luxr3148]

Good to see you in the NT

[@DeanSilvester]

Cheers legend, i will be back

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

What!! I didn't see this video coming! So awesome mate I loved every second of it . Yesterday morning I got a 93cm saltie in a little creek landbased it was insane. On my all time favourite top water lure, luckycraft gunfish. Thanks for another great video mate, and how good are the saltie rods yeow!!!! 👍🏻🎣♥️

[@DeanSilvester]

Awesime legend, i was telling the boys up there that they need a gunfish, i have used them in the USA they are killer

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

@@DeanSilvester absolutely mate they're my favourite. I love how they work so well with a slow retrieve, fast, subtle, aggressive, great action either way. The only small downside is the paint comes off very easily on raspy barra mouths, but that's no biggy. Battle scars tell stories haha 😎

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

​@@DeanSilvester Keeping with the Shimano theme, I got a new tranx 150 the other day and put it on my champion extreme 702c as my light casting setup. It's one of those combos that's a match made in heaven it's perfectly balanced and a dream to use 👍🏻

[@DeanSilvester]

I have the 150 as well for my light combo and can't wait to use it, yep battle scars are the best. Didn't lose to much paint on them with the US bass but the barra are a whole different story

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

@@DeanSilvester hey great minds think alike! Haha. 🤠

[@NigelMoore-jq7ml]

looked awesome as always would have been a great experience... great work!

[@DeanSilvester]

It was! Thanks for tuning in legend

[@jkd115]

So many barra's in that small creek😱😱 wat kind of lures for that kind of muddy water u guys use?

[@DeanSilvester]

Hey mate, Duane typically uses rattling gold bomber etc but i had the most bites of all of us on the Molix Shad 140. Soft plastic

[@jkd115]

@@DeanSilvester thank u 🙂

[@FishAndWhipz]

hey bro you had any issues with the GoPro 11 overheating at 4k doing my head in any tips? loving the videos bro been bingeing a bunch today!

[@DeanSilvester]

Yep constantly when i am up north mate, gets frustrating for sure

[@tonyfloro3014]

What OH reel you got the big fella..? like a 300 equivalent Okuma BC. ? Hows ole mate with the spaghetti rob jazz..!!?

[@DeanSilvester]

I know he was giving me a hard time because i fish impoundments for barramundi. that was a shimano curado DC 200 mate

[@rachelmorton4734]

Nice legend new shimano gear looks the goods

[@DeanSilvester]

Had fun with it thats for sure, thanks for tuning in

[@Thirty2_1_Zero]

Nice mate! Gotta love the runoff period in the Salt! It’s like nothing else with all the other things that want to chew on you and all the bird life that comes alive with the runoff! Great footage and well edited too! DM’d you on Insta too mate!

[@DeanSilvester]

Couldn't agree more, thanks mate will check my requests legend. Yep very different place and so much wild life going on up there.

[@shawnbeck2303]

Well, Mate! You have to wear these huge fish down. What a jump he made. Dean, What rod do you use? A heavy composite type? Do the swim bait have any Rattles? That's really muddy water your fishing.These fish jump like smallies in America. Shawn from the States.

[@DeanSilvester]

Hey legend, no composite all full graphite rods. I did have a rattle in the first soft plastic i was using but i found that a standard version worked better in the end. They must have incredible lateral line senses to key in on that soft plastic in that water

[@shawnbeck2303]

@@DeanSilvester I agree Dean. Just like cranks. Rattle or no Rattles. But in the mixed water of salt and fresh and muddy. It seems Rattles would be what they prefer. I bet your wrists were sore after this fishing trip. Trying to move about on that boat with two or three others. Not a small task! Very powerful fish or tank I mean! Another great video. Keep expanding your fishing. I hope I run into one in a lake here in The States. Shawn.

[@DeanSilvester]

Hey legend, yes very exciting fish to catch, i am planning to come back to the USA, maybe once this year and a couple of times next year to try to do a couple of tournaments so will keep everyone in the loop with that one.

[@runmargerashahril3333]

by the sound's of it oldmate lost his first eye to a fishing rod🤣

[@DeanSilvester]

haha, he must have been hooked a few times, hated the rods pointed his way. He actually had an unfortunate accident and is very lucky to be alive.

[@ConstitutionalConservative888]

The big guy is eating all the barra's, that's probably why you are catching so many.

[@DeanSilvester]

hahahahahaha
