Fishing On A $50 Budget | VERY Surprising!!

[@BluthBoy1]

I only discovered Josh a few weeks ago. Still can't believe he has a licence, dude looks about 13 years old :-D. Great videos mate, love your work.

[@joshdfishing]

Lmao people always think I’m 13 or 14😭 puberty is really taking it’s time with me

[@beanstead1371]

Dude's gonna be that guy who's 40 but still looks 25

[@DRSWISHMAN]

how old are you actually Josh??

[@VektrumSimulacrum]

@@joshdfishing Enjoy it while it lasts. I was asked once what's the difference between being younger than 20 vs older than 30. I told them younger than 20 you can get hurt and walk it off... older than 30 you have to start admitting it when you get hurt and it's harder to walk it off. HA.

[@Milladam]

Finally someone said it 😂☠️

[@nolixss694]

Hey Josh, just a challenge idea. Go to the lure bargain box in the store, close your eyes and pick a lure out at random and thats the only lure you're allowed to use. Cheers

[@joshdfishing]

Nice idea thanks mate

[@Mitchkelly2008]

U know it’s a good day when Josh uploads

For a young man you have a lot of experience and i have the feeling you been fishing all your life.

[@VektrumSimulacrum]

After fishing with rods that are *less than* 3 foot long for 2.5 years straight, it's surprising how much of an advantage you gain just going up to a 4.5-5 foot rod. It really makes you appreciate the enormous amount of leverage and control a 7-foot+ rod can give you. There are shorter rod blanks out there that will give you much better feel and action but then you're looking at a self-built custom rod in those short lengths. If nothing else that could be a neat fishing challenge for you. I can get solid glass ice rod blanks for $7 a pop. Not sure if they'd be easy to come buy from an AU source though. Upgrade the reel on that kiddy rod to one of those budget Shimano FX (they're $19 over here) it might be a pretty sweet little combo.

[@Mark-ew5jm]

Excellent video as usual Josh. First time I used those plastics was in Merimbula NSW… I used it as a bottom lure with a jig head with the weight in front so the lure would stand up on the bottom like a defensive crustacean with the claws pointing upward. Landed Flatties, Pinkies, Whiting and Bream. What a challenge…might not need “high end gear” but it sure beats managing problems…..sometimes the experience of the angler can make some gear look and perform better than other anglers. Love your generosity…..the little girl will forever remember this day.

[@grantjones4038]

Mate, your channel has quickly become my fav fishing show to watch. Good stuff.

[@joshdfishing]

😄🙌🏼

[@sondrio3]

Cool challenge! Love the bloopers, and giving away the rod fully rigged at the end was awesome. Great work Josh, keep the vids coming! 👍🏻

[@TheBeaker59]

50 yrs ago when I was your age we could only afford reels of that quality. First thing you did was take the drag washers out and refinish the metal washers with wet and dry sandpaper a drop of oil and a flat sheet of glass. Improved them no end when the drag breaks easily the whole rig feels so much better.

[@Peterlim-hy5fq]

🤣🤣 the tree must have been hungry

[@joshdfishing]

Very!🤣

Nice job .there are very few guys like you on the tube Just remember the keep enjoying yourself and when the sponsors start knocking on your door keep it as low profile as possible

[@joshdfishing]

Haha thanks mate. Ive been sponsored in the past and don’t plan on going down that route again👍🏼

[@charliehansfishing]

Was looking forward to the video josh thanks for it mate.

[@kronixhitz]

Awesome videos, great channel always fun to watch and makes me hang to get out there more. You've convinced me to try lures more, never had any luck with them in the past. Would be great if you could do a noobs guide, maybe talk through reel, rod choice, what lines to use, use of a leader etc?

[@rhinorhino953]

I don’t know why but every time I watch your videos I start getting obsessed with fishing so much

[@joshdfishing]

[@majestical8859]

Joshy mate, I was struggling to get some fish however you've helped me get attempts for closer. If it wasn't for the flopper method my life would be in shreds, I would of had no purpose and my mental health would have a downwards spiral. Keep up the good work and keep getting those fish.

[@fishingwiththamma]

Another great video mate, you're killing it at the moment 🔥

Man your actually goated, slaying on the kiddy combo. Keep it up big fella👍

[@petercrozier7319]

Love these videos.you need a rapala city sling bag for your flats fishing and walking out from shore.

[@archiemccafferty9136]

Cracker video this Josh!! Great concept and fishing session mate! Nice flatties and perch caught out of some gnarly surroundings. The $25 rod & reel bargain fared well, but that drag was horrendous.........you did an awesome job on dealing with it! It was a very generous gesture from you giving that young girl the kit.......hope you're rewarded in kind for your good karma!

[@joshdfishing]

Yeah I thought this video would be a good idea for the people that don’t want to spend hundreds on flashy gear. And just want to have a go at fishing :) And yeah I was very surprised how many fish I actually managed to get onto🤣 and it was only the right thing to give that little one the rod and reel. She will put it to better use than I will👌🏼 and hopefully that might start her fishing addiction

[@JaymieJones]

Great vid mate. Awesome to see what you can do with a cheap setup and they really can be pretty fun. Guilty to say I have had fun on my daughters old little Jarvis walker guppy spincast setup. The drags are always atrocious 😂😂😂

[@rileyrasmussen4402]

Quality vid Josh, you can even catch big Perch on the 50 dollar rod awesome mate.I had a flick down your way, one healthy system you have there, was catching fish in half a meter of water. Congratulations on the 8k well deserved Josh.

Thanks Shane. And yeah I’m surprised how well the cheapo rod fished

[@joshdfishing]

Yeah they actually swim well in the water. I think they don’t catch much because of the body shape and the fact the legs keep wrapping around the hook 😕 but I still managed to get into some cracking fish!
