Taking on the Hawkesbury River - in search of jewfish/mulloway on lures.

[@regkershaw]

Another top video Andrew. I hope your misses is feeling better. You definitely know your waterways . To go to a different area and still get nice fish is a credit to you. Keep up the good work mate

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks alot Reg, she is ok now mate cheers. It was alot harder than it looked in the video many hours of now bites aswell. Come through but with some real good fish 🙌

[@regkershaw]

@Lowysfishing mate you know your stuff like I said it's a credit to you. I hope to get back your way soon and hopefully mate you.... Which tide do you find works the best and do you drift most of the time then spot lock when you get fish or do you spotlock an area and move accordingly.

[@Lowysfishing]

@@regkershaw i think each system works differently on the tides mate. So hard to have a favourite tide etc depends on too many variables i think. Time out there fishing i guess is always the best way to grind out the patterns of each new area. Something i think we all wish we had more of mate free time 🤣

[@jasonpearce849]

Fantastic Mr

[@Lowysfishing]

I have to get back there again soon i think. That was a fun day on the water 👍 thanks for watching.

[@CrebosFishingAdventures]

Awesome day Lowy ... can't complain with those mixture of good size fish , thanks for sharing mate 👍

[@Lowysfishing]

I was happy with the end results crebo thanks for watching mate I appreciate the support. How fat wer those bream too. Obviously the jew an flatty took the cake but good mix of species aswell.

[@CrebosFishingAdventures]

@Lowysfishing , yeah nice breams ... did you get a measure on them, 40cm plus you think

[@Lowysfishing]

@CrebosFishingAdventures no i didnt measure them mate. Most of the time unless i catch something that could b a pb I generally dont bother these days.

[@mjau0374]

What a master class! Beautiful work mate

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks mate. Sometimes i can be lucky 🍀

[@andrewburrell5814]

Great video Andrew i haven't fished the Hawkesbury for years. You really enjoyed that with plenty of quality fish. Well done.

Was a top day Andrew, first time iv had my boat on there aswell good way to break it in.

Hi Andrew, reading the comments glad your mrs is all good. We have a holiday house up there amazing spot ;) just wanted to know location of the big jew if your keen to share (i couldn't work out the spot based on the footage) ;)

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks mate all good now. That spot is gunya point. Great place for a holiday house mate 👍

[@comfortably_numbat]

Its an amazing waterway. I`ve taken the family on houseboat holidays a few times on the Hawkesbury and its so peaceful and relaxing. Its like you are miles away from civilisation. We were on the water when 9/11 happened and we didn`t have a clue about the whole incident until we came back to base. Well worth the effort to take a holiday on the Hawkesbury. Would be very good therapy if the missus was recovering.

[@Lowysfishing]

It was awesome Ray i really enjoyed it. I looked around cowan creek an it was glassed out. A houseboat trip would b a good time thats forsure. Relaxing an plenty of fishing to be done.

[@darrenminns3181]

Good day out .well done..

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks Darren was worth the trip at least an the leave day off.

[@CoopersFishing1]

Great stuff mate!

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks alot mate 👍

[@dinodadog71]

great fish, the flatties are still on.

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks mate. Plenty of flattys thats forsure an there fun to catch aswell.

[@trevorcourt2306]

great video. I am about to start 5 weeks long service leave and my brother is coming down from Queensland and he wants to catch a jew. Will have to give the Hawkesbury a good try

[@Lowysfishing]

Thats unreal mate 5 weeks. Give it a good crack an you should get 1 i recon. Good luck out there 👍

What is your " light gear " composed of Andrew ? That`s a beautiful looking Mulloway that you caught. Looks very healthy.

[@Lowysfishing]

Another great video Andrew,did the big Jew take a Jackal Transam or 3” paddle tail Zmann.??

[@Lowysfishing]

@@johnloudon2396 thanks John,jew was on a zman , the big flatty was a vibe. Id lost a few so stopped using them by the time i hit that big jew.

[@johnloudon2396]

Thank you.👍👍

[@johnloudon2396]

Just a braid question Andrew,what 20 pound braid do you prefer for your luring.?

[@nickjdable]

Great video. Awesome day fishing. Some nice bream. What did the big jewie take?

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks alot it was a good day there. From memory that jewy took a 4 inch paddle tail 👍

[@zaiakhamis4]

Hey mate do you just cast towards the edge and bring it back ? Or do you cast away from the edge and bring back

[@Lowysfishing]

@@zaiakhamis4 most of the time i cast at the edge and bring it back into the deep water. Unless i mark bait balls deep then il just cast deep straight away 👍

[@kaimcburnie]

Hey mate what is that lure called that u we’re using? Great video love watching

[@MrSharky58]

Congrats on a good days fishing!. May I ask what ramp you launched from and if you would recommend it. I have never fished the Hawkesbury but live pretty close. Thanks David

[@Lowysfishing]

Thanks mate it was alot of fun. First time my boats been there aswell, i put in at parsleys bay ramp it was very good. Was a weekday but so not sure how busy it would b on the weekend. I can imagine very busy looking at the size of the carpark.

[@dillberry99]

gunyah point, one of my fav jew spots, top fish

[@Lowysfishing]

Cheers mate 👍

[@bisontv435]

What pound line are you using?

[@Lowysfishing]

On the jewy mate it was 15lb with a 20lb leader. Good enough with no structure around 👍🏻

[@bisontv435]

Thanks mate@@Lowysfishing

[@julianludowici8516]

The flathead were great. Unfortunately the jewie was a fake vid. I've caught a jewie that size and it put up a lot more fight than that one.

[@Lowysfishing]

Glad u like the flatty but not sure what u mean by fake vid ? An ive caught literally hundreds of jewfish an they all fight differently. An that jewy was maybe 95-100 cm so not a real big one by any means. Anyway would love to hear what u mean about fake vid if u can clarify ?

[@RayBaker-g3u]

We all appreciate you returning fish and not taking everything you catch as certain people do. However I for one would like to see you pay a bit more respect to the fish when you return them to the water. Lift them gently over the gunwale and slip the fish into the water rather than ‘launching’ them like torpedoes. This method can stun a fish and cause it physical damage. Thanks for your vids though Lowy. Might see you on The Mighty Hawkesbury one day. R

[@Lowysfishing]

I have found it the best way to get oxygen back into them, instead of swimming them back and forth like alot of ppl do. How many fish have u seen revived by swimming them backwards ? Ever caught 1 tail hooked ? Almost dead by the time u land them mate. Iv landed an released hundreds of jewys the same way with no fish floating back up. More damage is surely caused by dragging them backwards and fowards repeatedly? Trust me if it didnt work i wouldnt do it, as i like the fish being in good health upon release. Appreciate the input but mate no dramas at all. Hope your catching some out there 👍🏻
