I Fished This Lure Everyday For A Week | Gold Coast Land Based Fishing | Mangrove Jacks & GT

In this video I fish some local canal systems on the Gold Coast, Australia using the MMD Splash Prawn 95mm where I catch a variety of fish, including Mangrove Jack and Giant Trevally, over a week.

If anyone is interested, my impeccable GeoGuessr knowledge has led me to conclude that the first spot is just north of super Amart in Helensvale looking south from the rock walls

Thanks

[@haydenskiller6438]

How goods the boof 🤤 hahaha cheers mate !

[@peterfinlan8159]

Love your philosophy on just getting out there bro. 100%. Who cares about the weather, just go flick a few. Just being out there makes it all worthwhile.

[@haydenskiller6438]

Thanks mate, spot on 👌🏼😁

[@obieaustin5501]

Another awesome vid mate! Definitely my favorite all round lure

[@haydenskiller6438]

Cheers Obe, appreciate the kind words! Think it’s fast becoming one of my favs too, catches everything 🤯

[@peetbam7511]

Great one . Keep up the good work. 👍

[@planetfonz]

Great video man, I look forward to watching more. We spent the 90s doing long sessions paddling a canoe from mermaid Waters to Cascade gardens, awesome times.. the bait and Trev's under the Markeri st bridges were so much fun to get amongst

[@haydenskiller6438]

Thanks mate 😁 haha how good, that sounds epic !

Truly a deadly lure. Getting a few for my tackle box. Maybe a few Sugapens as well. Awesome video mate!

OMG that's incredible, nice fight dude

Cheers mate ! 😁

[@sweatyjester]

That first spot is such a good spot. I got completely smashed up there by a giant herring a few months ago.

[@haydenskiller6438]

Yeah wow! I’ve been fishing it for years and have found it’s quite temperamental but still find myself being surprised by some of the fish around there, cheers Andy

[@FishBikeMike]

Hey Hayden, ace video. Thanks! I'm coming to the Gold Coast for the second time in January 2024 from the UK. Over here I spin for trout, pike, perch and sea bass 🤙 Any tips for a tourist on fishing the canals in summer? 😁 Thanks man, keep the videos coming

[@BigGTVThailand]

Great video mate, is that the Cooked King colour in the splash prawn?

[@bellabear653]

Bull sharks are everywhere in those inlets I can't believe how people swim on those canals. I did when on holidays with my family when young as well. Not having any clue how invested with bull sharks they really are. Great work getting that fish out.

[@haydenskiller6438]

They sure are, you wouldn’t catch me swimming in them that’s for sure! Cheers 😁

[@joshhowe3477]

I swim in the canals all the time so far so good, but yeah its definitely nerve racking to say the least.

[@gtchaser4298]

these fish looks so strange , is this spot fresh water or salty water

Ive made all those exact same excuses bruv mean while had my gear out waiting to clean & oil. Robs are usually in the car ready to go after work..not even going that

[@haydenskiller6438]

Yeah mate it’s definitely an easy trap to fall into, I’m glad someone relates haha …but at the end of the day if you’re not on the water, you’re simply not catching fish 👌🏼

[@slurrpyattack__7941]

Exactly.✌

[@jordontukuafu2464]

Where about is this spot bro

[@Max-cg1su]

Hey man, loved the video its hard to find some really good quality local fishing content. I fish the gold coast quite often cant really seem to catch much either than bream and i caught a massive mangrove jack on freshwater eel tryna catch a shark. Could you point me to some spots, I just bought this lure where are some good spots to go, i want to try catch my first trevally and hopefully some more mangrove jacks.

[@haydenskiller6438]

Hey mate, appreciate it ! Bet you were stoked with that jack ! The Goldy can be quite temperamental and really that’s the reality of fishing it, I’ve found it’s more about putting in the time and effort on the water and learning which spots to fish and when, over knowing the ‘best spot’. But if I were to give you a general pointer I’d suggest taking your splashy down to your local rock wall (there’s loads of em but they all fish really similarly) and work the edges when there’s a bit of current pushing along it and keep your eye out for feeding fish too 👍🏼

[@frankleon6708]

what pound braid

[@ryanairtime3433]

hey mate, would you be able to tell me where you caught the GT. I have all ways wanted catch GT. you don't have to tell me were you caught the GT but can you teel me what suburb you caught. Thanks for taking the time to read this hope you can give me a hit. Thanks Ryan

[@slurrpyattack__7941]

Great idea mate. If you dont atleast spend a few hrs getting to know how certain fakeys swim,perform & what there designed to do also make them look as real as possible then you'll never work out hardbody & plastic fishing & get frustrated with it. Ive found even not getting on the water enough Ive got to remember most of it again..bugga

[@haydenskiller6438]

100% mate, it’s all one big learning process but the real key is to stay persistent! Time, effort and understanding are the real catalysts to catching that dream fish, tight lines my man 👌🏼
