Hey 👋 Fisho's! Just a guy enjoying the struggles of land based fishing. Subscribe for more!

Do you love land based fishing for whiting, squid, tommy ruff, flathead, mullet, mulloway, kingfish, shark and more? Well you've landed on the right channel!

I focus mainly on land based fishing locations in South Australia... at least until I get a boat. From time to time, we'll also share some cooking and non fishing family holiday vids.

I started fishing as a young lad with my father in the southern suburbs of Adelaide and have always enjoyed it as a past time. It is a passion of mine that helps me to balance a busy and demanding professional career.

I hope you enjoy my videos and if you do please like, subscribe and click that notification bell. I aim to upload a video weekly to inspire my audience maybe on a new location, a new technique or just to sit back and enjoy.

hI Matt, if you wet the braid before you start casting it will help a lot with wind knots.

It was weird. A bird had just flown into my line. There was a tiny bit of feather on the line and that's what caused it to get caught up I think.

I see you met Al (old mate at the end full of bleeeps 😂) Squid have been scarce lately around Ardrossan. My lads recently got the fishing bug so been spending a lot of time on that jetty in between binge watching fishing videos on RU-vid. Maybe one of these days I'll see you down the jetty

Hi Matt, nice feed of squid, good info on the different jig colours and when to use them.
@MattsFishingEscapes
@MattsFishingEscapes 3 часа назад
Yes, a good feed. Interesting that even when you use the jigs at the right times, the one you wouldn't expect to work does.

@steventurner8428 17 дней назад
A secret spot I fished at Outer Harbour when I lived in Adelaide was actually UNDER the "entire" warf for big bream, salmon trout, mullet, small mullys and KG whiting on a out going tide. There is a ledge along the back wall under the warf that you can walk along from end to end. Get mussels from the wooden supports as bait. On hot days its cool quiet and nobody else. But I supposed it banned and fenced off now days unless you have wire cutters.
@MattsFishingEscapes
@MattsFishingEscapes 17 дней назад
Wow! How long ago was that... knowing how secure ports are these days I would absolutely say it's been closed. But sounds like a cool spot! Thabks for sharing.

in my opinion the fishing on the YP gets better the further down it you go Wool Bay Giles Edithburgh (get whiting off the jetty) fishermans jetty (small jetty in Edithburgh) Troubridge point for rock and surf fishing all the way down to Marion Bay and Stenhouse bay the surf beaches around the bottem end Point Turton is worth a shot for a kingie in summer

Yes Kevin this was on Saturday of the long weekend. I was going to go again Monday but didn't want to deal with the holidaying traffic. Yes, I love them with Tandaco fish coating or salt n pepper coating on the BBQ. Nice crispy skin. It's a pity there weren't more squid as Wool Bay has a reputation for squid. But not on this occasion.
