[@BobClutton-gz3dh]

Hi Roger, love your vids. I'm 81 and live in Nth Qld. I've never been a successful fisherman but thanks to your vids I have learnt so much that I have been doing wrong -- thank you. I am a pensioner and can't afford to get totally involved, so thank you for what I can experience.

[@klockwurk]

Love watching your videos! I have a request: when you discuss things like the deep trough, or where to cast, can you add some graphics to the video to indicate what you’re describing? Also? Would be great to also see where your cast lands. Keep it up!

Hi Roger It would be great to see a Drone view of the beach to understand how you identify the gutters, maybe a video devoted to reading the beach with Drone footage as the the visual model. So much enjoy the content you provide and the knowledge you impart, thanks.

Thanks 👍

[@tedsmall3793]

Thanks very much for a great series of great information. I always catch worms, for me it’s the best bait. A few months ago caught a 6kg Jewie with worms at night.

[@MrMaxence07]

wow great video again

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@mwroutledge]

Great stuff Roger thanks. Who care's if it's salmon? So many folks have these odd ides about good or bad fish, honestly if you take care of the catch (sashimi kill) you're 90% of the way there to a decent feed. That rod looks bigger than 7ft but it looks like a fun rod.

[@tuhingatoha1134]

I also want to thank you Roger. Great viewing for a very keen student as I am. (Enjoy eating the Salmon ... don't know about the flathead though mate😊)

This could well be a dumb question, but here goes… Why use light line when you could go bigger and less likely to loose it. BTW I agree with others re the quality of the filming and info, it’s right up there!

[@pulsevlog]

Another great video Roger. I was looking for one of your videos where you walk back to your gear (bucket, etc.) to see how you deal with your catch. Do you bleed all your fish? Where do you store then to transport home? Is there one of your videos you can refer me to to answer these questions? Thanks in advance.

[@dundadunda552]

Hey Roger.. u are a legend. Just 1 small piece of advice..try to maintain a decent distance between u and the fish especially in the wash..allows the rod tip and mono stretch to do its thing. I know this can be hard especially with 15lb line.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks mate

[@thegreatdebate7930]

Always great content, really enjoy this channel. Always wanted to know the line weight on your rods. Keep the content rolling.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

In this video 15lb mono

[@zacktoby]

If you ever tire of those beach worms and Australian Salmon (actually a less desirable member of the perch family) it is almost time for the yearly run of Northern Bluefin Tuna (late Feb through to March) just off the tip of that island to your left. I have also caught some big kingfish at the same spot. Live yakkas (scad) are the best bait (never tried beach worms for them). I have also caught heaps of Luderick in the colder months, all of which you don't have to turn into fish cakes to enjoy. I have collected abalone near there and huge mud crabs in the estuary although this might not be legal nowadays. Fond regards and keep up the great work.

[@cozab5487]

Aus Salmon are actually a Scombriform and closely related to Tuna, calling them a member of "the perch family" means nothing because most fish we catch are. They get a bad rep because they're common and most people don't know how to treat Tuna and their relatives, those big Bluefin didn't get that good by someone bashing them around on the jetty and leaving them in a bucket all day 🤷🏽‍♂️. Bleed, ice, fillet, skin, cut bloodline and red muscle out, better undercooked than overcooked and eat fresh (just as you would with a tuna) and Aus Salmon are far better than their reputation suggests 🤷🏽‍♂️.

[@Mark-ew5jm]

Since i started following you i am now catching heaps of great fish on the Surf Coast in Victoria. The family is also enjoying your famous Thai fish cakes. Thanks Rodger!! I would love to have a fish with you when i am up your way in April this year.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thats really great to hear, sounds good Adrian

[@BillSaltbush]

Ha ha ha! As soon as you said "I'm going to close up this hook", I was sitting here saying "No, no, no, Roger, don't do it! You know better than that. Scrap the hook, put on a new one." Lo, you paid the penalty with the very next fish. Should I laugh 😂 or cry? 😢 Come on Roger, old mate. Lift your game. 😂😂😂 I reckon I could wager, successfully, that you'll never do that again. I'm only 24 minutes in, but it's great so far . . . good going, Roger. You're making me feel I should move to the NSW south coast. Reckon I could easily live on Thai fish cakes and ceviche for the rest of my life . . . so long as there is decent wine accompaniment. Cheers. 🍷

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks Bill, great to hear from you

I've seen nearly all your videos, Roger. I went to Central Coast's Terrigal Beach, attempting high tide, low tide, dusk, and dawn. Used lures and bait for a week, but unfortunately, empty-handed every session. Considering giving up on beach fishing.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

I'm sorry to hear that. Terrigal is a good area. I had a friend who lived there and had good success. Were you fishing the same spot all week or did you move around?

[@mafiasyndicate]

@@RogerOsborneFishing Good to hear there are fish out there. Must be me. I moved up and down the beach. I must admit I’m terrible with identifying the gutters so I try a spot for 10 minutes and if no luck move up 20m and repeat.

Leave me some worms Roger ) two weeks to go )) interestingly I’ve caught few bream there and mostly whiting and salmon, but 150metres south near stokes I’ve caught mass of bream especially early. I hear they’ve fixed the road in which is always a bonus.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Hi Rob, yes the road is good, hope to see you soon

[@robertharvie9032]

[@geromeraccosta7769]

Hi Roger, another enjoyable video to watch! I have a question about using bait from the garden, have you done this, does it work, and what locations are more better (eg. estuaries, lakes or beaches)? I often thought of this, who knows might be a video in the future to do. Thank you!

I haven't tried worms from the garden myself but it would be interesting to see how they went.

[@richardcasecase7445]

Roger what country are you in and what beach is this

[@pwpaulwest]

Hi Roger, when I was a kid and the salmon were running at point lonsdale in Vic, we would hook them and to prevent them spitting the hook when jumping we would basically bury the tip of the rod in the sand and walk backwards up the beach to get them out of the surf. This provided consistent hook pressure. What are your thoughts on this vs working them through the waves with the rod tip high?

[@tasirai8834]

Hello Roger Osborne, I live in WA at Geraldton and i was wondering if im able to catch beach worms because they do pop up in the servos sometimes but never have I heard someone catch them near me. Thanks! 👍

[@darrenatherton7459]

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks Geoff

[@geoffbarnes9175]

Roger, I don't know about salmon, we don't get them up here but we get many small bait stealing dart. I love getting good bream in the surf. One early June morning about 15 yrs ago, I went down to the southern end of Pippi Beach, Yamba at a rock formation. First cast was a bit rubblely so I moved north about 5 metres. It was dark. In 6 casts I caught 6 bream all over 40cm (measured with the Alvey tool) then nothing. I was using a 7" rod I made myself probably 3-5kg and a spin reel. Those @##*^% bream turned sideways to the waves. Next morning, nothing, then the sun just peeped over the horizon and I got 4 bream in 5 casts all over 35cm but none 40. Then they just shut down. Just a yarn for you. Incidentally I have learnt a lot about seeking out gutters from you and preventing sideways movement. I don't beach worm as I'm 79 with a gut! Might try it though. We have had massive rain up here. The other day the BOM forecast 2-20 and one place got 400+ now they are forecasting another cyclone. I fear this is similar to Jan 26, 1974 with rain everyday then boom! massive floods.

hey roger, What do you think of circle hooks for beach fishing? I see you use only regular hooks... just wondering if you have a reason to keep away from circles or just a force of habit to use regular hooks
