Great vid. Thanks for sharing.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

@@tinkertable1977 no worries, I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@mickmccabe6244]

Paradise on Brisbane's doorstep. Our favourite holiday spot.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

It’s a wonderful spot, Mick. Thanks for watching 🎣

[@Nettixxx]

This is the gold coast but yes beautiful

[@matthewpocock4824]

Nice little session. Those whiting are so much fun on ultralight and great eating too.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Thanks mate - I agree 🎣

[@taleijane87]

Great vid! I've definitely got to get down to Tallebudgera creek soon...

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Thank you 🎣

[@danboutdoors]

Got to love the Tru- Turn hooks hey! They’re so good

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

I know there are other good hooks out there but I just feel confident in the Tru-Turns!

[@danboutdoors]

@ I find that with that little “kick” in the hook you get much less gut hooked fish.

[@FTS-FamilytoSea]

Oh I remember going here about 20years ago we would walk passed the wild turkeys, beautiful spot its changed heaps

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

It’s a lovely area 🎣

[@brianwebb1498]

Nice work mate

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Thanks Brian! I hope you are well 🎣

[@anto11b]

Caught my PB flathead there. On 6lb gear. Took a little while. Seen some lays there with some huge flathead at least 90cm.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

On this morning there was a guy fly fishing and he had seen some big lizards while wading the flats

[@jamescollis734]

Nice video man. Where was these spots?

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

This flat is about 1km upstream from the bridge, near the mouth.

[@rogersavery2245]

Nice vid again..where do U source your blood worms from..ta

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Cheers Roger, I get my worms from around Redcliffe.

[@michaelsaul8743]

Can you buy bloodworms from a bait shop

[@Teddybearrodgers73]

Hi mate I just come across your channel and I am new to the Gold Coast and I have fish freshwater most of my life. Just wondering what rods you are using and it looks like alvey reels. Thanks for your help.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

There is plenty of good fishing to be had on the coast. I use Gary Howard rods and in this one I’m using a Breambo 4W and a Club Special. If you are going to use Alvey reels with them, you want a “low mount” reel seat. If you are going to use a spin reel, you will want a “mid mount” reel seat. Cheers 🎣

[@Teddybearrodgers73]

Thanks mate greatly appreciated 👌🏽

[@sketcheddraftingdesign6093]

Great content 👍 Gold Coast local here too. Can you give a run down on your rods and Alvey size ?

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Thanks mate! The red rod is a Gary Howard Breambo (4w) and the black one is a Gary Howard Club Special and the reels are both 5” Alveys (500A5). I like both of these set ups for fishing off the shore and from the boat 🎣

[@sketcheddraftingdesign6093]

@@Will_Lee_Fishing Great to know mate. I'm trying to work out what size Alvey to buy for my dads rod. Thanks for your help and keep up the great content 👍

[@dominicmapstone]

When you say 'blood worms' do you mean the live ones that they sell at tackle shops that someone catches on a beach?

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Typically you can get two types of live worms from a bait shop, Beach Worms and Blood Worms. Beach Worms are great in the surf but in the estuaries, I prefer the blood worms. And then there is live African night crawlers which are an earth worm and they are used for freshwater fishing.

[@dominicmapstone]

@@Will_Lee_Fishing I looked up how people catch blood worms - by digging with their hands just beyond the mangroves. Do you know if they are widely sold in bait shops (SE-QLD) or you just have to dig your own?

[@mikestott9105]

Well done! Noice fish. Is that location at 'Dragon's Point'?

[@adamgc73]

Ive never had any luck at tally 😢 maybe time to try again fish so expensive at shops 😮

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Don’t give up, Adam. Just remember this system is quite clear so keep your lines nice and light!

[@jeffreyflynn2805]

Put a live whiting on a hook and put over against those rocks there are jacks

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

I have no doubt that there would be some awesome Jacks to be caught in this creek! 💪

[@michaelwakefield-dw1sp]

You could play golf @ Tallebudgera GC, set you fishing gear and bait during your round and pick up your catch at games end - what a magic thought.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Hahaha, why not 😎

[@michaelsaul8743]

Where do you buy the bloodworms from?

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Hi Michael, if I don’t dig them myself… I buy them from Tackleland at Sandgate.

[@somefatbugger]

Good to see the alvey. I don't own a single egg beater reel. Born and bred Queensland old bloke and only ever use an alvey.

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Such a simple design that just works!!!

[@stevemccormack5856]

Howd you get in there That’s a long way down from caravan park yeah

[@stevemccormack5856]

What side of river mate

[@stevemccormack5856]

What size alvey?

[@michaelsaul8743]

What other bait is good to use

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Hi Michael, live yabbies also work and there are plenty to be pumped in the creek.

[@PokiyourMouf]

@3:00 am i the only one who noticed his line was not threaded through the last ring on his rod 🤔😂😂

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

Good pick up, should have had my glasses on 😳 🤣

[@PokiyourMouf]

@WL_Outdoors I definitely could tell by the way the line was bending with the rod 😁 trust me, it's happened to me before, and I felt something was off, haha Great vids by the way mate 👏

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

@@PokiyourMouf cheers mate, appreciate it 👍🏼

[@NautFin]

i am just sick of everybody being a expert now in the movies overnight. hey nice whiting absolutely. Im getting my cork handline out now and thats a one up on a alvey mate. Your a legend and so is your trolley. thank you and enjoy the whiting i reckon

[@stuartsmith1375]

Are you vegan? Is this why you’re so angry?

[@somefatbugger]

Is that a Wilson or Snyder Glas rod?

[@Will_Lee_Fishing]

These are Gary Howard rods

[@somefatbugger]

@@Will_Lee_Fishing cool. I have a bunch of Snyder glass and Wilson rods. Estuary, light surf and heavy surf rods. My estuary is like the Gary Howard rods. 10'6" and in the old fibreglass ratings would be 3126, 3 wrap 126 inches long (10'6").
