I'm Fishing With SOFT PLASTICS & BAIT in Bright Sun!

You make beach fishing so easy means you are professional. Legend

[@moonlitpearl700]

I love the sound of the surf too in your videos. Sounds relaxing.

[@MrFlyingaussie]

Hi Roger, 1st of all thank you so much for this page! I've not long ago turned 30yr old and just got into fishing. I never had anyone to show me the ropes growing up but your channel has really helped me develop my fishing game, beach fishing especially. I do have an idea for a new video that you may or may not be interested in? Could you please do a video on the do's and don’ts of what to do when your line/rig gets caught up in rocks or gets tangled in seaweeds? It's a persistent problem I seem to face and there doesnt seem to be much solid info online. I hope you can help! Thanks again sir!

[@aquilip1]

You're a true legend Roger. I like to surf fish for Australian Salmon in Victoria and have done so for the past 40 years. I love the way you explain your tips and techniques but I have never tried fishing for Salmon with beach worms nor have I ever seen anyone look for them in Victoria! Can you or anyone reading this tell me if we have those massive beach worms in Victoria? Keep up the great work and tight lines 🎣

[@michaelsullivan988]

You are so good at explaining and showing everything.

[@johnclisby8451]

Love your videos Roger and I have started using a stinger hook and I'm amazed by how many fish that it catches where the 4/0 has missed and also looking forward to your Thai fish cakes recipe keep up the good work

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks John

Fantastic video as usual. Very cool. Quality of audio surprisingly very good given you on a windy beach. Thank you

Love your videos mate. Where is the BEACH location in NSW or VIC. I asked before however I didn’t receive an answer. Keep up the great videos mate.

Another ripper of a episode Roger

[@greghooke2409]

I have plenty of rods then you go and mention the Shimano Maikuro II Spinning Rod 12ft 5-10kg. Looks great & Looks like I'm getting another rod! Great recommendation Roger.

[@liquidsofa]

I bought some soft plastic fake beach worms. I also caught some live beach worms. I fished with the live worms and I was pulling in bream and dart. I switched to the plastic, I was getting back fake bait with bites taken out of it. Switched back to live worms and started pulling in the fish again. I think a lot of lures are made to catch fishermen, not fish.

[@craig1012]

Always love your videos. Keep them coming Rodger

[@cliveradvan3414]

Interesting to see your approach to drag setting. I have always done it that way and have just learnt how to judge just the right amount of drag.

[@bstfishing]

Always excited for your posts Roger!

With the crab break the legs of on the joints near the body and thread the leg segments on like you would a worm and they are amazing bait always take all the shell off tho 🤙😊

Nice, I too love fish the surf with two rods with bait and one rod casting.

[@konne16]

Keep on coming

[@chrishallowes9729]

Awesome fishing Roger. I love that you are catching salmon close in like that. 98% of my catch is snapper using a drone, but salmond (kahawai) is my favourite as it smokes so well. I would love to look you up when I visit Australia in February next year. I am going to purchase a new rig similar to yours and try your technique at my local beaches.

[@davidrodgers8059]

[@NoongarCulture]

I always thread crabs on through one of the rear leg joints and out through any side. It seems to stay on longer if the hook is held through the leg/body socket. Thanks for your tips Roger!

This was a nice way to start my morning 😂

[@lunadailylife88]

The hard work of farming really shines in this video.

[@kennethmaddox6988]

Love your shows. You might want to super glue the soft plastic on the jig. The bait slips, and you can miss hits. Also, Taylor's (Bluefish in the mid-atlantic US) hit bait fish on the drop, so you consider usind steel leaders to save tackle if they are present. That was that missing top bait.

[@bbailey1581]

Kahawai, gut it as soon as landed this increases the quality of the fish for eating.Then she's marinated in lemon juice for half hour.cream, coconut cream, spring onion and tomato make up one of life's true pleasures

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

That sounds delicious! We have eaten a fair bit of fresh salmon finely sliced in lemon and coriander, but I will have to give your concoction a go. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼

I have spent so much money on lures. It may well be my lack of talent in using lures, but bait always gets the fish for me. Any tips for lures/plastic appreciated, aside from buying more. LOL

[@christopherprior7979]

Love the vids roger. Do you use plastic pipe for rod rests👍

[@davidadams9354]

Roger thanks again for all you have taught me, that walking backwards before you set the hook has translated into many more fish caught. I have followed your Beach Rigs closely, however mine seem to get terribly tangled. I don't doubt you or them, so what can be wrong? Please. Dave Sunshine Coast

I’m a bit slow on the uptake, I’m watching this and thinking gee this looks like the conditions when I’m fishing at the holiday house and that island to the south looks just like the island I look at and then you swing north and I’m like hey that’s such and such island and realised you are in my fishing hole that I’ve been fishing at for 50 years )

Sounds interesting James, what part of QLD are you fishing?

[@TheBuckarooBois]

Question what’s the best knot for beach fishing because the knots I used broke off

[@georgetitchmarsh4606]

Question can you use soft plastics like bait fishing and allow the wave action to attract the fish ?

[@ianrawlings2546]

I often use soft plastics, especially worm patterns, the same way as fresh bait. Secret seems to be commercial scent in a tube (S factor?) and circle hooks or shiner hooks.

[@petermarch3274]

Hi Roger. What rod were you using for light surf.?

[@fishmut]

Triple gang hooks for those tailor , bite offs are a pain in the butt , I like a bit of trace as well , that fixes the buggars .

[@ianrawlings2546]

Yeah, but he's fishing for a mixed variety of fish. Hard to catch trevally, bream or flathead on Gangs.

[@OhNoMINE]

Guday Roger, I have enjoyed your videos, fishing on the beach. I want to ask why aren't there any boats in the back ground ? Are the beach's where you fish way out in the boonies ? If so do you think that add's to your success's. I have been fishing across the bay from N.Y., at a beach by the name of Sandy Hook, in New Jersey, U.S.A. but haven't been able to catch anything. I have been watching you catch a silver fish that has long spines, is that the same as a porgy in the U.S. ? I am trying to catch Fluke a good eating fish hear, but I haven't been able to get one. Thank You Very Much for your videos, Felix

Not true salmonoids, just an old name given to an unfamiliar fish in historical times. They fight like small marlin, but have a reputation as being inedible. I can't stand the taste of them. But huge fun to catch.

[@ironmaiden1236541]

The claim that only one spot at the beach is going to hold fish is bold. It might be the best looking spot on the beach, but the idea other spots won't hold fish is bold. Fishing constantly surprises me, I never rule anything out

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Hi Ironmaiden. Yes I agree, it would not be the only place, you may catch some fish in other areas but I think you would likely be waiting a long time between fish

[@alberthabib4220]

A mistake I see many younger fishers make, in their effort and excitement to bring in their catch, is that they skull drag the fish with tight drag, no allowance is made for the fish to drag out line and tire themselves out. They are so focused on bringing in their catch that even trying to talk them through the exercise is useless- they don't/can't hear the advice. P.S. I like your videos and your advice is sound. As an old time fisher, I appreciate the knowledge you share with other fishers. There's no sense having knowledge if you don't share it.

[@RogerOsborneFishing]

Thanks Albert
