Someone dive for the retrieval! 😅

[@raymundmonica8884]

Hope someone can help you Byron

[@cashhudson7984]

I reckon it would play up on the light gear🤣😜

[@alft69]

Hey mate, you’ve gone beyond the give-away to now featuring throw-away! 😂 That’s got to really hurt! I lost an expensive rod and reel combo overboard about 2 months ago it turned out that it was covered by my home contents insurance. It’s worth asking the question. Good luck!

[@alft69]

This video had it all! Drama, adventure, heartbreak and heroics!

[@ByronTeaHill]

Haha Alf, you’re too nice mate.

[@nigelbuckton1555]

Like the format. It shows the reality of fishing and even the pros move around to find fish, most vids just show the catch not the 6hrs inbetween. Liked seeing the thought process and why u make the lure selections you do. Please give us more

[@ByronTeaHill]

Will do, also, as if I’m a pro! I’m just a fool with a camera. Hahahaa

[@MrAlGault]

Love these long form videos, I fish mostly by myself so this style of video gives that sensation that we are fishing the back of the boat with you. I found this video as informative as your reviews, seeing how you move around your boat, between spots, rods, lures, techniques. Keep it up Byron, really appreciate all the work your doing to keep us entertained and informed

[@wattoak6666]

Glad you're all clear. I really like this format, seeing how you work out which lure, how long to work it, when to move on. Also getting noticed on the water, you might need to have an autograph pen ready, or perhaps some pre-signed photos.

[@ByronTeaHill]

Hahaha Watto, I don’t know if we’re there yet legend!

[@justinadams5159]

Reminded me of a hol I had at Malacoota back 30 years ago, with my Dad. Memories of my father and chasing big Flathead down at the Narrows. All fishing was land based. Did get a big Flattie to maybe 60cm, and lost a BIG one over past the cow paddock just over from the Caravan Park in Town largely as that line actually was a handline loaded with line not of breaking strain required to subdue a big Flattie. Memories man. An iconic trip. Forms the basis of fishing persona I have today. And may I say, is there a better arena for Estuary fishing in Australia?

[@Gaulz12]

Definitely like this style of video. Great to see how you think through it and make your choices when out fishing and things aren't quite working. Hopefully the tournament fishes better 🤘

[@ByronTeaHill]

It will!!!! Cheers Joshua.

[@kidoctane]

YES - what Nigel said !! Awesome when someone explains how and why they are making their choices in lures and tactics. As a noobie this is just gold !!! and way better than watching someone just fishing

[@Andz_88]

I like this kind of format, as much as the regular product reviews. This format is good to see on your thought process, which lures/setup to use on certain condition. Also to see how you work out the lures. This kind of format has helped me a lot when I first started fishing.

[@ByronTeaHill]

Hmmmn with all this feedback I may need to make a regular of this!

[@Andz_88]

@@ByronTeaHill go for it mate! Looking forward for it.

[@Mullerman]

Absolutely loved this format of video, really keen to see more of it!!

[@ByronTeaHill]

Cheers Mullerman! I’ll do more then!

[@ByronTeaHill]

Cheers legend

[@paulcook6800]

Enjoyed the format Byron, had a real "behind the scenes" feel to it. Would be great to see a few more of these sprinkled throughout your other formats. Bugger about the camera gear.

[@ByronTeaHill]

Total bummer! Cheers dude

[@kymsummerton4877]

Byron, enjoyed the video format 👌🏼. Dude….. that reinforces why I should never take my DSLR on the water as tempting as it is 🙁. Glad to hear your test was all clear 👍🏼👌🏼

[@ByronTeaHill]

Thanks legend. DSLR has been replaced and is ready to go back on the water. Hehehehe

[@joelcrosbie8996]

Nice vid. My favourite part was the close up of your toes at the 17 min mark...😜

Hey Byron, the format was good 👍🏻 diversity is a good thing in my opinion. Keep up the good work mate cheers 🍻

[@freshairfishing8367]

Awesome mate. Definitely keep’ em coming. A lot of people, myself included enjoy watching videos like this, Not just for entertainment but you never know when something you do in a video like this might just help someone out with their fishing.

[@ByronTeaHill]

Thanks Fresh Air Fishing! You’re 100% on that front dude.

Yeah dude! Always cool to be interviewed on that channel.

[@ByronTeaHill]

Yeah dude!!! Had a great tine

[@JaymieJones]

Loved this video, was great to get your commentary on the conditions, etc as well as what you would throw, how much and why. Really informative. Keen for more of it, I feel these kind of vids can provide a fair bit of knowledge. Thanks legend.

[@ByronTeaHill]

My pleasure Jaymie, pumped you enjoyed my ramblings.

[@MJermMer]

Nice to see the thought process in chasing fish.. Makes me feel better

[@ByronTeaHill]

Sometimes it works Michael, sometimes not so much.

[@christopherbinns7571]

I like this style vid cause its good to see different techniques used on different lures and how often you change between lures. I often get stuck and can be real stubborn with the one lure in a session.

[@flicknfishwithanthony]

Awesome video again Byron! Super unfortunate for the lost gear very costly flatty session hey 😅 Keep up with the great videos always enjoy watching them Hope someone retrieves some gear from the drink for ya

[@ByronTeaHill]

Thanks legend. Yeah it does cost a little!!!!

[@martinfpss]

Brilliant video, sorry about the gear loss, absolutely sucks. But as others have said, really enjoyed watching you think your way through the dirty water, weed beds etc and turn it into a successful session. I'd love to see more of these videos, always pick up little tips from paying attention to how you fish, and it's just good, enjoyable fishing content!

[@ByronTeaHill]

Cheers Martin! That’s a really nice comment mate. I’m really happy you liked the video!
