Sydney Harbour Landbased SNAPPER!! | Fishing Australia

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Hi all, Just wanted to make a quick announcement as I have been receiving tons of messages about fishing locations. Please don't think I am being a douche or secretive about locations. I've started KZbin to help out as much as possible and share my experiences, so that we can all benefit. I just don't think publicly posting locations would be the right thing for me to do, as the the ramifications of doing so would make it un-enjoyable for all persons. I use Google Maps in Satellite mode to find wharf's and locations and give it a go a number of times to see how it produce's & repeat the process. Please free to contact me via IG, FB & YT as I'm happy to help out as much as I can and steer you in the right direction. Thanks for your understanding & Tight-lines!

[@nickcoudounellis9668]

Yes you are allowed to fish there but fish off the walkway not the rocks as too many snags. I am going there this weekend. Trying a new invention of mine. I got 50 meters mono line and turned it into a birds nest , put a heavy sinker in the middle and tie a pilchard in the middle as well. Cast it out and hopefully a blue swimmer crab will get tangled in it. I also catch heaps of good sized crabs but they always let go go when I lift them out of the water

[@GamerTubeAus]

could you plz tell me where this spot is or once i find it myself i would just let every1 know the spots location your choice

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

You seem like a stand up guy, attempting to blackmail me and all. I created this channel to help out and provide some entertainment, but with your attitude you won't get the most helpful responses. It's a very well known location, so you better start your investigation inspector gadget. Tight-lines & Thanks for watching!

[@warrenbartholomeo933]

Fishin' with Marki Mark I know the spot mark nice area , enough people fish there already don’t want this place to get packed so I want be giving it up, appreciate you vids keep them cranking 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

warren bartholomeo Thanks for your understanding and support legend! Tight lines mate! Yewww.

[@rabbitphobia]

Absolutely crazy for letting that octopus go they're delicious.

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

I love octopus but I wouldn't do it justice if i prepared it.. so he went back in the drink :D

[@captebs]

So much fun on light gear! - Great location too:) I actually get quite a few cuttlefish around the wharf

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Hey Elan, Yes.. I love to fish light! Yes you're right lots of cuttle, I've used for some live bait as well in upcoming episodes. Stay tuned & Tight-Lines!

[@nickcoudounellis9668]

You should try Mrs Macquaries Chair. Caught a huge John Dory yesterday while bringing in an undersized snapper. Excellent spot to fish on the rising tide

[@888darrenify]

Nick Coudounellis thought you weren't allowed to fish that spot.

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Awesome, I'm always hoping to catch a JD land-based.. need to tick it off my to do list that's for sure! Hope you enjoyed the episode. Cheers!

[@Lj-er8mo]

Nick Coudounellis but parking so expensive Fuarkkk

[@nickcoudounellis9668]

@@Lj-er8mo you need to get there very early. I go there between 4.30am to 8am. If you fish there in the middle of the day you won't even get a bite. You can park up until 8 am free. Daybreak is the best time on a rising tide. Landed 2 Bonito and a huge blue grouper yesterday

[@Lj-er8mo]

Nick Coudounellis Niceeeeeee wouldn’t expect a big blue to be there. On the crab?

[@Jay-en7bw]

Just a small tip mate if you are going to fish with circles you should use locked drag you will be very lucky to catch a fish fishing loose drag circle try gamugatsu octopus hooks if u want to fish loose drag

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Cheers mate, good pickup! Definitely agree needing pressure to set the hook. 99% I generally reserve circles for livies on loose drag. I allow time to let them eat it, then pickup the reel and tighten up to set the hook! Not the most orthodox and thought i'd give it a crack with pillies and hooked up before (targeting kings only), so I thought hey why not haha. Thanks for the tip & Tight-lines. :)

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ahhh Cheers mate thanks for your help! I only just realised that you can get day time Jews. I went out with some buddies targeting kings and we got a couple of 70ish cm day time jew on a Live yakkas, single hook 4/0 circle hook unweighted. Was amazed as it happened twice in a two week period. I have to give targeting jews a proper crack, i haven't been into them as I know they can be quite fussy and a hard species to target, long nights etc. But thanks for the inspiration, it certainly gives me motivation to give it a go! Thanks for the support & tight-lines mate! :)

[@Jay-en7bw]

@@FishingwithMarkiMark no worries mate don't listen to what people say if you are spending all night chasing a jew your doing it wrong 90 minutes before 90 minutes after tide turn chase low tide tide works best further up river say abbotsford to homebush high tide abbotsford on bream in between to keep you occupied if nothing in that time just pack it up and try again another day

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Thanks for the feedback & tips mate, greatly appreciate it I was reading a lot about them & saw conflicting information, but good to know its 90 mins before and after the turn of tide! It was within 90mins on the run out tide around midday we got a by-catch of a 70cm jew only recently! Was so surprised. Thanks for the support & tight-lines mate :)

[@Jay-en7bw]

@@FishingwithMarkiMark yeah dw mate I've caught a lot of jew lol over 50 haven't cracked a meter yet so I'm still learning my self want to crack that meter I've lost a meter + 2 times at least one snapped my holder and took my gear lol will get it one day good luck with fishing mate keep it up

[@deetop623]

I’ve been fishing there for many years and the best time for big fish is the evening high tides. 🙂

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

I'd say your right mate, id love to get there in the evening on high tides, but mostly have time in morning chasing a high there (Y) cheers for watching!

[@888darrenify]

Knew which wharf you were fishing the moment I saw the broken rod holder.

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Haha.. I am always meaning to fix it.. maybe one day i'll get around to doing it :) hope you enjoyed the episode!

[@shannonthompson8024]

Here in nz we have to measure from the fork of the tail instead.nice work m8

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ahh yes, I've heard that. You lads can measure to the fork as all your fish sizes are HUGE! We wouldn't be able to keep a fish for the table if we went by NZ size limits aha :D Thanks bud!

[@johnenguyen6420]

I was there today, caught 5 kingfishes, but all rats, alot of leather jacks around, no luck on squids though,

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ahhh nice work mate, ahh yes the majority of kings have been on the ratty side. Hope you get a hoodlum next time :) !

[@yungsoldier9188]

Where’s the location?

[@amasterfishing5544]

Good table size snap

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Thank you mate I was pretty happy from a local wharf! :) tight lines

[@masitamas1250]

Great video mate, what is the location would love to check it out cheers.

[@stevenjb10]

Great vid.Do you use a sinker? Or just the pillies on the gang hooks?

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Thanks for the kind words & support mate. No sinker bud. The pillies are still semi-defrosted and are quite dense, so they can be casted out relatively far and still sink slower through the water column to target a wider range of species. Hope that helps! Tight-lines.

[@benhutchinson9054]

Yeuuuu mate you got a new sub

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ben Hutchinson Thanks for the support legend yewwww.. :)

[@supermarioplush9175]

My dad has caught tons of those red fish, he calls them ratfish because they will eat anything and they puke a lot

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Hahaha can't say i've heard that one before :D i like it.

Hahaha, he's happily released and still out there for you mate :D !

Earned a sub from me because local and good content ! You live around rockdale or just happen to start filming there?

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Thanks for the sub bud, greatly appreciate the support! Ahaha I just happen to pass by and start filming there, good observation :) tight-lines.

[@CrispyPenguins]

hey there, recently, a few of the 7-11s in my area removed their fish-bait freezers. Where do you buy your pilchards? cheers

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ahh that sucks mate, I don't know of any close to this location that sell them. It's best to call your local tackle bait shops, 7/11's, I even find Caltex Woolworth's sell 1kg for about $9 dollars. Hope that helps, or if you send me a rough location I can tell you which places may have them! Tight-Lines & Thanks for watching!

[@nicksmith3746]

Found your spot. 😬

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Perfect mate, definitely not my spot though haha! I’m sure it was well fished before my time :) my intention is for people to find the spot over time, so it doesn’t get super packed straight away and I wouldn’t be to popular with the locals ahaha! Hope you smashed it my dude tight lines.

[@thekingg143]

where’s that spot mate ?

@@FishingwithMarkiMark Thanks mate, appreciate it Keep up the videos

[@Chiperedo101]

dont you have to measure from the tail join (middle) rather than the tip of it??

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Chiperedo101 Good question mate, but in Sydney NSW it’s not to the fork of the fish but to the tail! If your from NZ it’s to the fork :) tight lines

[@Chiperedo101]

@@FishingwithMarkiMark i see i see, im from NZ lol

[@FishingwithMarkiMark]

Ahhh I thought so, I've been asked how we measure from a couple of NZ viewers. We are not lucky like you guys having BIG snapper and kings! A NZ trip is in order for me ahaha tight lines bud!

[@notbad9804]

Hey bro do you have any socials or anything Ng would love to dm you about where this spot is I go fishing with my brother and we enjoy ourselves we don’t over fish we release the big boys haha would love to just go there for some squid or fish thanks mate hopefully you can help a brother out
