[@WLDNSwilderness]

[@DeanSilvester]

Very fun to chae mate, i think what i like the most is the time o day you go and the environment that you are in! Always quiet and serene

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

Wicked video mate. I love watching those big strikes. And you pulled out that sexy combo again! 😍. Thanks for sharing another great video Dean 👍🏻🎣

[@DeanSilvester]

So hard not to get that combo out mate, i actually catch a few more giants on it in the videos to come. So excited

[@Jake_UpNorthFishingAdventures]

@@DeanSilvester I bet. I have a couple of favourite combos too that are just a pleasure to use and they're always what I grab first. Looking forward to the next one mate!! 👍🏻🎣

[@neilwedlick9851]

[@DeanSilvester]

Thanks for watching, much appreciated legend

[@katelaufer6996]

Dean full respect just for fishing in that freeZing cold. Summer only sport for cod for me brother!

[@DeanSilvester]

haha thanks mate, i do like the cold sometimes actually. Or maybe its just that morning sunshine that starts to warm you up after the cold

[@ThomasCrichlow-wp7lm]

good few cod i do a bit of fishing at copedon and caught my meter cod there on surface the lure was a blista hunchback i have caught many cod on this lure but good few fish

[@stephenlatimer1428]

hey Deano, nice work mate. 2 weeks ago we had 10 days there over near sepoy point. we finished up with 10 for the period the best being 2 over 80. had a few Ms follow to the surface but this time round no cigar. still, a great 10 days with my 2 sons n brother. Deano wats the EVA flooring u r using.

[@DeanSilvester]

Hey mate, seems a few guys are getting the smaller fish on topwater pretty well with a few big ones off the top but not as many as in the past. I am running Seadek mate, installed by the great team at Boat Flooring Australia in Brisbane

[@CookingandFishing]

I don't think Shimano had this in mind when they designed the EX72H lol! Are you missing a stripper guide on that rod?

[@DeanSilvester]

haha perhaps not! No that rod first guide is just a long way up, like you said perhaps not meant for that purpose or to bend that much

[@rachelmorton4734]

Great legend gear talk was great keep grinding fear nothing 🔥🔥🤛

[@DeanSilvester]

Appreciate it thanks Mate

[@tiller_gorilla7220]

The one metre box you didnt tick, Glad your still smilin cos the footage was sick. With the fog rollin in and the sun risin, The rod was picked and the RT sent flyin. The line went tick as the cod hit hard,was it that metery finally dealing the right card. 😂😂😂

[@DeanSilvester]

hahahahahaha OMG mate that has to be one of the best yet! Well done, i think we need to do a shirt each video series with a pic designed by Jelena and a poem by you.

[@tiller_gorilla7220]

@@DeanSilvester actually going writing these out of late.thinking of writing a little book of wit.but hey if you can fit em go for it.all copyrighted of course 🤣 and our other frriend down south actually loves them of late too.the one you mentioned last week.

[@tiller_gorilla7220]

[@DeanSilvester]

Awesome mate, good luck

[@seanhaynes5654]

Nice vid Deano 👌

[@DeanSilvester]

Legend! Good to see you back on the cod mate

[@gavinstewart4680]

Hey mate, just wondering what model exipride your using and is that only for cod or Barra as well.

[@DeanSilvester]

I use the 172H for both barra and cod mate

[@gavinstewart4680]

Thanks mate

[@matthewbrown2613]

Hi Dean High speed or low speed transmission TIA

[@DeanSilvester]

On the motor or my fishing reel? Motor i have no idea. On the Tranx i run the HG

[@shawnbeck2303]

Hello! Mate! Outstanding photography. The reflect of the sky with a drone. Was absolutely beautiful. Boldly go where other fishermen. Won't ! go! I go when it's the hottest or the coldest. To prove to myself that fish can be caught anytime any where. No matter the season. Or the weather. I just watch a beautiful sunset. The weather is 80 degrees and it wonderful. Plenty of rain and wind. Plus sunny at times. The crops are standing tall. Corn and beans around here. Just lush for the harvest coming soon. The bass are trying to evade me but! I am using my special bag of tricks. Sometimes slow fishing or topwater fast. I drive them nuts with continued casting over and over till that just have to go get my baits. Doubled Buzz baits or Whopper Ploppers. Jigs or the Hybird Hunter Jr. Bouncing off cover. Even the River to Sea 120 glide baits are producing now. The toughest time for fishing. Make them bite I say! Another great video Dean. I amazed at the new content you provide us with. Outstanding video! Shawn from the States.

[@DeanSilvester]

Sounds like it would look amazing over there right now mate. Yep sunrise and sunset are best spent on the water and soaked in, pardon the pun. Glad you are still ticking that box every trip mate and getting it done

[@downunderfulla6001]

Another awesome video mate. That morning fog on the water is spectacular. I’d still be back at the Boatramp frozen mid walk😂 That first one was THE ONE 🙌🏽 but they all were quality. Was there any bycatch. The PE ratings always have me confused (yes I’m easily confused) a lot of channels talk PE between lines and rods. It’s only rod integrity if I understand. I’m loving the new setup of the tinny more and more👌🍺🍺

[@DeanSilvester]

Cheers legend, can't catch them at the ramp mate. Not much by catch when you are running big baits. Although i have had giant yellowbelly in windamere eat a big swimbait meant for a cod. PE is the line diameter. Because so many libes vary in how they measure breaking strain i much prefer to talk PE because the line diameter is what i am chasing. So even if in the future they somehow make PE 3 to be 80lb i will still ruun it because i like that diameter of line for cod and barra

[@TyroneSharp-j7s]

Hey mate wat rod are u using

[@DeanSilvester]

Thats the SHimano Expride mate, link is in the description

[@JohnMcBride-mt3ft]

Hey mate, awesome footage loving the content 👍 heading there on Thursday in search of my first metery, any tips for a first timer to copeton? Little bit blown away after looking at maps of this place, she’s massive compared to my local dams, any pointers as to where to start looking?

[@DeanSilvester]

Sorry mate, i missed this, i typically head up the river direction and just look for bait in any of the bays. Main reason i go towards that end is i don't have to cross the main basin in any wind in my little boat
