Still love that walk over to the front mate. Bring back memories for you? Good times mate.

Heavy waters from the stones Captain! All to-hand. And Gav - legend! Loving that old school gear in an era of digital everything! 👍 Rob - that opening edit ... really good mate! Top top drawer! #Spielberg - SMITHY 😉🤙🎣🐟

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Thanks Smithy! Still time to get up here and into one mate

[@owenphillips9166]

Great vid Rob. Really liked the intro waves/music combo, and the music on the way to the spot. Shame about that first fish, but good to see you land the other one. The speed they were ripping line of your spool though...awesome!

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Thanks Owen. Those longtails really hit the afterburners when they first feel the hook.

[@tullyallsop6964]

Great edit on the into mate! Top video

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Thanks mate. Was a munt of a swell

[@intensehotdog]

Yewww - hopefully i'm in one of your vids landing a longie soon!!

[@robtaylorshotwater]

You’ll get one mate

[@allaboutthefishing]

Super cool video mate, I haven’t fished land based in years but I’m inspired to have a crack 😎 there’s a couple islands up my way that will be perfect for it 🤙

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Cheers mate - I grew up on the rocks so it’s in the blood lol. If you’re ever down this way we should line up a fish

[@allaboutthefishing]

@@robtaylorshotwater that would be awesome 😎 likewise if you’re up the Whitsundays anytime hit me up 🤙

[@teambonito5318]

Nice one lods

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Thanks for watching mate!

[@sheep740]

Hey mate , whats the blank the overhead is built on. Looks like a fantastic rod.

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Hey mate - it's an old Ugly Stik blank of all things. Great rod for the rocks when there's a bit of swell on. I'll try and get the blank numbers and come back to you.

[@srduckyoce1084]

Hi rob, currently I’m using spinning reels for tuna and looking to invest in an overhead, which overhead reel and rod would you recommend, any budget

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Hey mate - go overhead. You won’t look back. Either a Shimano Tyrnos 16 or Talica 12 would be great reels. For rods I’d look at the Wilson Live Fibre 10kg stick. They’re short for the rocks but great rods.

[@srduckyoce1084]

@@robtaylorshotwater thanks mate, just wondering what line you would use with the talica 12

[@srduckyoce1084]

[@noodz2777]

Hey rob awesome vid. Looking at getting into live baiting off the rocks. What reel would u recommend?

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Thanks for watching the vid mate. Depending on your budget a TLD20 or Shimano Tyrnos 16 are all you need for longtails and mackerel mate

Great reels!

[@luken2350]

Not worried about crowding out the ledges mate? I enjoy your vids, but as someone who fishes this part of the world a little bit of cage goes a long way.

[@robtaylorshotwater]

Not really mate. Been fishing here all my life and the ledges are less crowded now than say the 80s. As long as people are respectful then it's ok. Pretty hard to be cagey with that spot though. She's pretty well known. Thanks for watching the vids.
