Winter Fishing Success: Redfin and Trout

[@michaelpaul5498]

Hi Robbie. You are so blessed to be able to spend a day out with your Dad. Treasure it. My father passed away 5 years ago and I still miss him. Enjoy the redfin. Kind regards MP

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate, I am so thankful for every opportunity.

[@pattyronni5806]

Gday Robbie, We were there last weekend and had the same friendly bird. He followed us everywhere, My kids named him Tubby. He actually answers back to your bird calls. What a beautiful day you had with your dad!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. Haha I can see where he got the name Funny from, he looks pretty well fed. LOL 😅😅

[@TheThetechnician]

I miss my old man, this warms my heart mate

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much mate. 🙏👍

[@TheThetechnician]

In a crazy mixed up world at times your videos keep alot of us sane

[@kevdimo6459]

Way to go Robbie, and as a lot of your fans say it’s great to have the thrice yearly cameo of your Dad! It brings back memories for all of us, good memories! 👍🏼

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much Kev. He's certainly a ripper of a bloke.

[@baileyblackstock918]

@@robbiefishing Hi Robbie this morning a truck full of old brood stock browns left from Snobs creek hatchery in eildon. If you want to catch an absolute monster, or at least try take a tub of worms and head for lake sambell in beechworth or the Stanley ditch dam. Anyway thanks Robbie for the video have a good one.

[@Mark-ew5jm]

Love the opening conversation on the boat when your Dad said he might chase some rabbits later….I still enjoy the old “slow cooked” rabbit and am fortunate of having a son in law who hunts and ensures I am kept in venison and “underground mutton”….great session again Robbie.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Mark. Dad still loves his shooting, especially rabbits. Haha

[@jeffbaade8480]

Lovely to see your dad on film 👍

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Jeff. We had a ripper morning.

[@vincecotton127]

Any days fishing with your Old Man is a great days fishing. My Old Man is 82 and taught me most of my fishing skills... On good days I cam take him out to wet a line. Do it whilst you can Robbie....My Old Man slowed down very quickly from what he was. Now I take him fishing.......and help him out. Still great times though.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Vince. I'm hearing you loud and clear mate. I'm so glad you can still fish with your old man.

[@PeterIshman]

Another great video. Beautiful day at the lake and great day of fishing with your Dad can't be beat. Lucky you.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate.

[@robhunter7236]

Redfin. Pretty fish. Guilt free feed :P Win win.

[@robbiefishing]

Spot on Rob, I love them for many reasons and the fact that they're so self sustaining is just one of them.

[@andrewelliott9228]

What a beautiful place to go fishing, especially spending quality time with your dad.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate, it was a quality morning.

[@sheenamoore3938]

Great day out with your Dad.I used to fly fish but cant anymore. Really miss it.Loved the friendly bird too. Keep well from the UK.

[@robbiefishing]

Thank you so much. I enjoy fly fishing but I'm certainly not an expert.

[@browntrout1156]

I always say, what a beautiful spot there Robbie. Love the photographs.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. It sure is a beautiful spot.

[@chriscoyne4827]

Great to see father and son at its finest fishing in my favourite place. Weather the fishing is red hot or not enjoy your time with your old man buddy

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. It was good when we filmed this last week, but completely dead yesterday. LOL

[@chriscoyne4827]

I was up there today and got nothing as well not even a single bite. It didn't both me at all had my son with me and that was good enough

[@fisherman5517]

at least you caught a feed robbie , nice one.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. 👍

[@peterhipwell4632]

Wow love that magpie I reckon he was a juvenile Quality over quantity is better than no keepers Love the silhouette of the trout excellent photography love it and the photos at the end

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Pete. That magpie is amazing. It has to be the friendliest magpie in the state. As for the photos, it is amazing what mobile phones can do these days.

[@siquinnell6068]

Nice one mate, good to see you and your dad fishing, I lost my life long fishing mate 5 years ago and I wish I could go back in time and get back all the hours I wasted on other things that I thought were more important than spending time with my dad simply fishing

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. I'm so sorry for your loss. 🙏

Lets get Robbie to Skipper the boat next time .Let Dad to do the fishing and talking...great fishing though

Always great seeing your dad. He's a professional. A lovely man. That bird at the start i think you found a friend. 😂😂😂😂😂😂 loved your video. Great watch. Quality is right.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much Vincent. Haha that magpie sure was super friendly.

Good job mate looked like a beautiful but cold day

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Catherine. That describes it perfectly. Cold, but beautiful.

[@Kano_Fish1ng]

Currently prepping all my gear for the trout stockings and an inverloch fishing adventure so this is an awesome thing to have in the background!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks so much mate. It sounds like you have some awesome fishing adventures awaiting you.

[@LarrysFishing]

Awesome to see you and your dad back out on the water and not a bad session for this time of year. Great job as always, take care!

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Larry, we certainly did have a ripper of a morning.

[@jeffwood4620]

Good entertainment once again Robbie. I still enjoy seeing fish caught, even if they are thrown back. Love the Magpie at the start. It was a very young bird as it still did not have ‘jet black’ feathers. Unusual for a young bird without life’s experience to be so tame.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Jeff, that magpie certainly is a beauty.

[@mattnzep350]

Funny as soon as Zep seen ya bait caster reel he knew you were lure fishing ... Hello Mr Alexander from Zep and Matt

[@brentonclarke]

Looked like a great trip with great weather. The video does seem to hide the cold but over there that time of the year I bet it is cold but it looked like you were lucky with a pretty calm day. The photos of the fish look really good and something I need to improve on

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. They were just mobile phone photos. This was last week. Yesterday we went back and it was as dead as a doornail. LOL 😂😂

Some very nice looking trout getting around early in the morning there, much more 'salmonoid' in the lake with more silver than colour on them

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks mate. Yeah they do tend to look a bit more.silvef don't they.

[@Kearnesy]

Great video Robbie. I took the kids out to a lake over the weekend fishing was slow until i stopped on top of a school of Redfin then after teaching the kids how to use blades i was then the person to unhook fisj after fish lol

[@robbiefishing]

Haha that's awesome mate, I bet the kids had a blast.

Great video mate, lovely spot. I thought the same thing when you old man threw that one back.. was a bloody keeper alright.

[@robbiefishing]

Hahaha I honestly thought he would keep that one. LOL Thanks mate.

[@TobysfishingNoutdoors]

Another AWSOME video from my idol, it’s great to see ur dad get some fish and have some quality time, I’ve been trying for ages to get dad a fish but with his inpatient manners it’s been hard 😂😂, I’ve really wanna go back to William hovell now that I’ve got a yak.

[@BruceCrotty-mf1kx]

Hi Robbie, looks like it was a nice day to be on the water, and a nice reddy too. I watch a lot of KZbin (probably too much) and have noticed unlike most you tubers you don’t ask for a like and a subscribe during your videos, is there a reason for that.

[@robbiefishing]

Thanks Bruce. It was a magnificent day. Occasionally I will ask at the end of the video, but not often. I think that most people know by now how to subscribe to channels they like. Also, the way KZbin works it recommends videos to people that watch them anyway. So even people that don't subscribe, if they watch my videos they will just get them served up anyway. Haha

[@BruceCrotty-mf1kx]

Thanks

[@pressb]

Old mate The Ginger Fisherman figured out how to get a signal back from his GoPro underwater live (using some co-ax and duct tape) so he could watch the action at his bait as it happens.

[@robbiefishing]

Haha how awesome is that. There's a company here in Australia that sells products for that but it's very expensive.
