Excellent mate , if you don’t mind me asking where abouts are you located in NSW if I’m in the area I’d love to come and say hi and give a personal thanks shake a legends hand thanks for the amazing tips I have learned so much

[@mitchmcbride6053]

Can you please show tips on catching live bait and mullet I find it bloody hard

[@alistairmills7608]

I'm giving away Tasmanian Scallop fisherman's secrets, because I love your videos Roger because I live fishing. Flathead love scallop meat. It's their favourite food. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHa7eHZthqiXb5osi=8IYFzyX2skXSNksM

Wifey and I enjoyed your video… always nice to have a good low key buddy like Dave on board 👍

[@peterm6199]

Refreshing to see you don’t need 10k in Sounders and electric motors to catch a few Roger. Great technique drifting with plastics and dropping a live bait at the same time. 👌 👌 👌

[@KenRobinsonCoach]

Roger, that is an excellent video on catching Flathead. I really enjoy your videos. You make it so easy to understand the best techniques for catching fish. Thanks for another great video!

[@mitchmcbride6053]

[@joelkettley5791]

Love the sock tan rog!

[@Agent_Clark]

Sweet I was just about to go flatty fishin

[@seanyuke3249]

One of the coolest fish ever. And they cook up so well. Almost a shame they taste so good.

[@merrick2752]

Remember fishing on the Mallacoota bar near the entrance just on dusk , a fullish moon was rising. The tide flows in fast about then. Fished with an older even for then (1974) Jarvis Walker schnapper rod. Felt a strike then another , minutes later landedtwo massive flatheads , recall both of them filled the bottom of the bath on the rental shack. 50 years later although rarely fish, still have window of dusk withincoming tide i work with.

[@kelliehundt]

Enjoy your videos

[@tedjames2534]

I love how roger is kind and takes these inexperienced fisherman out with him then once out there speaks down to them and speaks condescendingly to them.

[@MakeAsylumsGre4tAgain]

or, that's what you're like so that's what you see. Roger is a teacher, not a jerk...

[@peace4peaceful]

I used to catch heaps of Flathead. Now you really have to target them and still don't catch them. They're a sucker for SP's. Plus our local river has been picked clean by netters. Rocky went net free and the netters must of moved here. Luckily we are getting net free zones this year. Nice video mate.

[@pseano2285]

what a ripper of a bloke old dave is 👍

[@leongt1954]

I remember going out on port phillip bay and dropping a line over the side and catching a flathead every 5 min or so

[@doncoyle114]

Bit of Wally from Croc Dundee about Roger

[@warwick4763]

Great video Roger you remind me of my grandfather(rip) when I was young down at the basin or husky teaching us how to catch lizards a long time before plastics he always used potty’s and worms 🪱

[@sampaakki]

What is your boat set up?

[@michaelDArcy-h7n]

awesome

[@IleneOva]

Got the dog.

[@1tr1ck]

Great video mate. U need an electric for that boat

[@ash-xd5od]

How do I know which type of line is on my Rod? I bought a shimano rod and it was already spooled. It’s kind of green yellow coloured

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Hi Ash, Ask the people where you bought it. Can you tell whether it is monofilament line or braid? Do you know the difference?

[@ash-xd5od]

I think it’s monofilament because when it cuts it’s one thing rather than braided lines

[@aa-kr6fy]

Hahaha just buy a spool of 10p line works great for everything I catch my bait on 15p line and I also have caught big flathead on the same line just get something strong enough to hold the fish not too strong tho

[@monnsfishing6863]

Roger : dave get me your rod ill rig it up with soft plastics Davo : passes the rod with the running sinker and 6/0 hook 😂 Then davo noticed the live bait rod gets a fish . Then davo drops his soft plastic rod straight away without wnding it back hahaha ya funny davo!!!

[@peterpumpkineater6939]

dave got that ivan milat look about him

[@MakeAsylumsGre4tAgain]

rude

[@kimkyle6921]

I thought he said he did not go over the same ground interesting

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Hi Kim, once you locate the fish then it is good to concentrate in that area. This is a common tactic of Flathead fishermen

[@lukenash8112]

Dave on the same fish that he caught the bottom with

[@Lonhro]

Nice video Roger, you pinpointed the reason they weren't biting that much...water temp is vital to catching flathead. Another good tip is if you see sting rays in your area, you know your in the right local. 👍

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks for the info Gary

Hi Joel, 90% of the time, boat fishermen fish really close to the shore, certainly casting distance. I have a video coming up purely land based to show how good it is

listen to this--any one who fishes with a rod I spear fished for years an speared big flaty's all the time over a meter plus got the photos of it to .LESSON big flaty's hang near structure like off rock walls,brake walls or logs in estuary's an big flaty's are usually not caught on a rod big lizards a smart some of the biggest flaty's I've seen were spear fishing off break walls in north NSW near meter an a half they will bend your spear gun shaft like crazy spear'm straight in the head to stop'm dead if you spear'm in the body an they will take off at high speed an reck your spear fishing gear LESSON the biggest flaty's are off brake walls

[@teighandoughty1573]

Spearing any flatheadover 70cm is illegal you clown. They are female and the ones who produce the most eggs. What a wanker

[@nicv1365]

Nice brag about killing a bunch of big female (breeder) flattys! And if you think the only place to find big flattys is at break walls then you clearly dont know much about them.
