Nice fish. Always here to support

[@bstfishing]

Thanks for your support Phil!

[@sethjones1891]

Love your work phillip

[@oliewray8357]

By support you actually mean something else just come out of the closet buddy it's all good now days

[@Surinboy60]

Awesome....nice flattie guys.

[@ChappyLad-gq5hc]

Great video mate. Keen for a fish and a catch up in the very near future

[@jasonhansen6727]

Awesome fish!

[@Gc_fisho]

Hey mate, just letting you know that big ‘stingray’ you lost was 100 percent a flathead. If you get any head shakes it is gonna be a fish. It is only a stingray if it doesn’t do head shakes and feels like weed.

[@bstfishing]

100% agree mate, at least thinking it was a ray didnt kick me down from going for another cast 😁

[@Marleypoa]

Did youse land that big one up the left side of the jetty, always fished up the right side out to the point had some luck but never fished up the left side

[@bstfishing]

Hey mate, anywhere works really but both sides are really a hit or miss spot. Just have to put the time in to reap the rewards 🤙

[@daniellaw5941]

Makes me think about walking up that side of the flats where you guys went that day

[@bstfishing]

Yeah its a hit or miss spot. Been fishing on both side for years and both have had inconsistencies and consistencies. Fish will always move around so there’s no guarantee you’ll catch something if you dont put the time in. Let us know how you go 🤞👊

[@davegronan1731]

Gday mate, im new to slaty fishing, im travelling Aus and heading up yo cairns soon, any tips for whiting, flattys and pinkies/snapper? Also uve just got ur self a new sub. Tight lines brother 🎣 EDIT: what plastics r u using???????? And what size and colour? The first ones look like white? What’s the setup with the rods?? Like line and that sorta stuff

[@bstfishing]

Thanks heaps mate! Just go light leader for the estuary species and check with the locals with what’s biting. And we’ve listed the gear and lures in the video description for you 🤙

[@thepeakmenace]

Hey bro that new thumbnail style is getting the clicks before I saw the name i thought this was briggsy or cavy. But nice to see you improving😅 I do have a question just by looking at the video i can tell this is not the bay is this around newy under the newcastle bridge further up?

[@fishnsw]

nice video lads

[@bstfishing]

Appreciate it heaps!

[@aussfish9995]

Nice Flathead mate

[@bstfishing]

Thanks Dave, nothing compared to the ones you’ve been pulling out from the lake

[@leeevans1874]

Just lay em against the rod and measure it later if not tape.

[@bstfishing]

Will do!

[@pierreloiseau3915]

What catchment is that dead flatty in? Hear they are dropping a bunch a chemicals into rivers on Qld NSW border in hopes of controlling fire ants. Wonder if that had something to do with the old girl being dead.

[@bstfishing]

Nah mate, this is pretty far south off the north coast. But great info to consider for the future! It would be interesting to see what caused its death

[@Styracoart]

Probably died of old age considering how big it was.

[@MrPontylad]

Nice vid, did you have to get permission to use the drone in the area? The shop does a great singapore noodles too!

[@bstfishing]

Thanks mate! and yep, we’re allowed to fly the drone

[@mudgut69]

That wasn’t a stingray. It’s a flathead.

[@richardhiatt3420]

Spray marks on your rods boys for measuring

[@oliewray8357]

78cm is the length you can't just round it up in fishing because it sounds better nice fish though

[@bstfishing]

Thanks mate but we didnt have the nose on the 0 at the start so we re-adjusted the fish and it measured up to 79.5cm in the end.

[@vladimircharous8945]

Hook in the stomach? yeah sad. :(

[@bstfishing]

Yeah, didnt get a look inside its mouth unfortunately

[@jackdaly6868]

Stingrays don’t eat plastics or have head shakes

[@bstfishing]

Thanks mate, I reckon the thoughts of a stingray helped me fight the fish better because there wasnt any pressure 😂

[@oliewray8357]

IV had rays take plastics in the mouth normal sting rays and eagle rays it's possible

[@user-fr2ew5so5m]

Can you guys just catch a fish without bloody drones and hi tech stuff ffs? All you young guys aren’t anglers we real fishos read the conditions and use or instincts unlike this computer generation.

[@albertodeniro-fe6nm]

If you had a quarter of a brain cell, you wouldve seen that they caught the fish without a drone

[@harrycrandle3397]

Yeah they caught fish without the drone 😂😂😂 did you even watch the video

[@davegronan1731]

They’ve never caught a fish with the drone 😂 you’ll see they catch fish off the beaches by reading conditions and use the drone for entertainment purposes. If you want to make things up to grab attention, well done to you!

[@user-fr2ew5so5m]

@@davegronan1731 hey whipper snapper they spotted the flatty with the drone which is like men fishing with skirts on then they threw lures at it haha you actually thought i meant they used a drone to hook and catch the fish 🤣 I’d put my son up against any of you so called fishermen without your fancy fish finders and drone buddy.

[@bstfishing]

Hey mate for your information, the flathead that we caught near to the end of the video was entirely caught without a use of a drone. Yes we used a drone to look for fish as it’s an awesome experience to capture the moment and footage, however just because we use a drone does not mean we don’t know how to “fish”, simply it’s another alternative to experience something new and share it with other people. Besides if you had ever tried drone fishing, you would know it’s a lot harder than it looks.
