Gotta love Tony you make the show mate 🤣

[@BushRats]

hes a crack up!

[@bradthurkle7217]

Love us videos lads. Very funny guys lol 😂. Haven’t tried marroning for years. Making me keen now ☺️.

[@fishingfamilyfishbrain9400]

Loved it mate keep up the amazing work I never seem to get bored watching your content

[@stancornwall8727]

Good fun on the tube with your style, fna thanks

[@BushRats]

thanks mate

[@glenbaker4024]

Check eBay for a USB rechargeable torch. Look for the one which says 90000000 lumens, about $10-20 They’re definitely not as bright as advertisement says but are super bright. They’re black with red buttons. The $20 ones actually have a safety cover over the buttons and are a bit better than the ones for $10 without the cover. The charger cord stores well inside the body of the torch so you always have it when you need it. Robbie uses an Olight but they’re expensive. Great vid guys!

[@BushRats]

10 bucks sounds pretty good mate will definitely look them up cheers 🍻

[@micksklenar]

Another great video boys 🍺👍🍺👍

[@BushRats]

thanks mate! appreciate the feedback!

[@sinclnic]

Great video again guys! Olight Array 2s head torch, best I've used, I've got bigger a brighter olight head torch, but the Array is the perfect torch for this sort of work, works mint at night on the boat pulling nets when we go freshwater Cray fishing in Victoria. Nice broad flood and good distance, I've had multiple Led Lenser and petzl, never again, waist of money.

[@daniellong3231]

Best bait is tin cat food preferably sardines or anything with fish in it couple of spoon fulls mixed with chicken pellets in a stocking works a treat best thing is to let it soak a bit longer than what you guys are pulling them also best torch to use is the dolphin brand

[@outbackzak795]

So jelly! 🤟🍻 Yew

[@BushRats]

few more wouldn't of hurt but hey, beats working haha 😂

[@onearmbanditadventures234]

What a brilliant idea trying all the different baits 🔥👌👍🤙 amazing underwater shots . Black crabs haha vegemite 1 lol ninja turtles haha don’t know what you’re doing lol awesome video legends 👍

[@BushRats]

thanks brother appreciate it 🍻

[@joshtrigwell7766]

Between 5am-8am is the best time as this is when the big ones are on the bite. During the night is when the majority of the smaller marron come out as there is less chance of their predators seeing them. Good luck for the rest of the season 🤙🤙

[@rickgraham5164]

That’s a comfy looking sleeping bag!

[@marcmc2873]

Aniseed pellets are my go to, fishing tackle shops....

[@bigd4000]

[@BushRats]

[@sturges01]

Try a bit of catfood......works well on crayfish in the UK for me ?

[@BushRats]

I've just gone and caught a few stonkers with my mate. good video keep up the good work

[@joshinaround5680]

Great content as usual lads! Nitecore NU32 550 Lumen USB rechargeable head torch is my go to. Super bright, no bulky battery pack and lasts ages between charges.

[@jakmaf6998]

Black Strap molasses.... That's where the liqusice flvvur comes from.

[@jakmaf6998]

Classic one boys

[@BushRats]

gonna have to stop by Coles for some molasses next season 😂

[@jakmaf6998]

@@BushRats go on get some. It can also make nice rum too if you ferment some with some sugar and then distill it. unsulfered molasses is better for this purpose.

[@spanners-N-loaders]

Best bait, if you have a mate with a rifle is a bird... parrot, pidgeon ect. We got 22 the other night from 2 birds put 11 females back and kept the males. For a light you really can't go past olight. I run them as both hand held torches and on the bangsticks and have never had an issue at all, waterproof, and outshine pretty much all others for the size. Hell my key chain olight torch is better than alot of store bought options haha

[@hamishmacgregor8373]

love it buddy try a politician they stink

[@bodyboarder2488]

Dorcy spot light from bcf isn’t to bad fellas

[@seansmith1756]

[@russellquinn5741]

hey guys just a little tip wet the hession bag to keep the marron alive longer.you probally already new this.keep up the good work.

[@Podge.]

Nice one boys

[@kalebparsons237]

Hey guys. Any chance the shirts are getting restocked on the website. Cheers

[@Thomas_496]

I’ve found last nights roast chook carcass does best for the marron, crays, yabs and shrimp As for the light situation can personally vouch for the olight brand. I’ve got the prun 2 head light/ warrior X torch and they are second to none. The warrior X lights up the other side of my local lake with ease

[@allanmck6078]

Shit did I see a pie oven----lol

[@jackweir3681]

Should do a catch and cook video on them

[@spudking6617]

What happened to the old dolphin torch? Think they do a l e d one nowadays 🤟mossy oak do a good torch 🔦 aswell ! Keep trying lads I’m sure they will be around somewhere maybe a square river. 👍🥔🇦🇺

[@seansmith1756]

Bacon chicken necks liver

[@trippie9626]

Could try spleen for bait?? Works for blue crab probs work for black crab. 🤙🤙

[@rivertooceanadventurertoa3347]

Should try red claw I reckon they taste better then marron and no size limit or bag limit

[@thebob3712]

I dropped a snagger in the water once, few minutes later a marron was dragging it away. Do you ever dive for them? are you allowed to, haven't read anywhere that says ya can't

[@dalesprague4333]

No boats or diving

[@thebob3712]

@@dalesprague4333 I know you are not allowed to transport nets by boat or drop from one, but nowhere does it say you cant catch marron by hand, maybe its in the fine print

[@dalesprague4333]

Yea it's the leaflet thingy Boats and diving Snorkelling or using compressed air to catch marron is prohibited. Fishing for marron from a boat (including canoes) is also illegal. You may only transport marron by boat if you have fished an area not accessible by vehicle and caught the marron from the land using a snare pole. Fishers may transport scoop nets or drop nets only on the Donnelly River downstream of the boat landing. This privilege will be revoked if abused. Fishing from a boat is still illegal.

[@BushRats]

cheers dale! bloody legend 🍻

[@thebob3712]

@@dalesprague4333 yep, after a quick look it does say no snorkelling/diving, it pays to read all the pamphlet, but in saying that I have seen on TV on one of these travel shows where they were filming a marron segment wading in the water catching them by hand, my understanding now is that is illegal as you can only catch by 3 methods, net/snare/scoop. I'll stick to the blue manna's
