Awesome video Ramon! I was with you all the way when you sighted that big bass next to the kayak mate, how good are those moments hey. Pure happiness. That's what it's all about I reckon is the excitement and joy of landing those special fish. I was exactly the same last weekend when I got that big sooty, I was by myself but had a smile from ear to ear. Nothing compares to that in my opinion. That was a great video as always mate and thanks for sharing 👍🎣

Thanks Jake, you’re totally right, it’s all the grinds that make these special ones even more special! And, as usual, they always come when you less expect them! Your soot was an absolute beast too, I’d be over the moon with that!! Thanks for the support mate!!

Such a productive little session! Good to see some chunks in there feeding up over the winter

Thanks mate, yes, similar to last winter when we discovered that place…being the biggest pool of the system (outside the brackish stretch) I believe all the population in that creek that doesn’t travel all the way down the salt sits in there for the whole winter

Love your videos mate, good to see I’m not the only crazy person paddling up skinny creeks on my own looking for these fish. Bring on 1st September!

Haha thanks mate, yeah I can’t wait either. Winter is tough but if you put the time, especially in the arvos, you do find the odd one that still remains up in the fresh. Problem is that I struggle to get time for myself in the arvos…glad you’re enjoying the videos 🙂

I usually refrain from statements about any being my favourite video, but I think this one could be "The One". Of course, I need to declare some conflict of interest in this contest, but I was stoked to see your genuine joy after scoring that trophy creek bass. Congratulations mate and I hope that there will be many more to come over the next season! 💪 💪💪🔥🔥🔥

BTW, I would love to hear the uncut part where the kayak floated away with your stuff 😂. Another good catch in this video 👏 ✌️

Thanks mate, I think the genuine joy came from a mix of reasons, first of all because I wasn’t really expecting to see much action due to the cold but also because I just couldn’t believe it when I realised it was one of the biggest fish of the season just when I’m fishing with the lightest rod 😄 Yes, there was some cursing said when I turned around after taking the photos of the fish and I saw the yak away from the bank 😅 I’m glad I had the rod…thanks again for the rod and lures mate 👌🏼🙏🏼

Damn time-lapse mode. I feel your pain. Pretty sure the joker is a DWU variant, same as the first BFS reel I ever bought. Love the look of them

@@yep.fishing thanks mate, yes, im glad when I changed batteries then both cameras ran well and the best action was captured…that’s why it is handy running 2 cameras… I’m not sure about similarities with the DWU. The brake system is very different and despite only having had a DWU on my hands for a very short time a year or so ago, I do believe that the Joker feels more solid. It would be good asking Kelvin who has both
