Based in Australia, predominantly the southern state of Victoria, Fishing Down Under will showcase exciting and action-packed fishing videos. This differs from tutorials, guides, and of course, fishing! A wide range of fishing techniques including soft plastics, squid and bait fishing as well as many different fishing styles like land-based fishing in both salt and freshwater, boat fishing in saltwater and even surf fishing. Make sure to come along and tune into the adventures. Good fishing everyone!
Oh yeah I commented last time tried the river out amazinggg results lots of mullet only though what do you recommend I do to target these bream?? Been using chicken
@FishingDownUnder1 Was going to try one of the recently stocked lakes around Melbourne tomorrow actually with some Tassie Devils so I'll see how that goes 🤞
I’m sorry that this video has caused you distress. I usually don’t keep flathead unless they are in the high 30s, however, I respect my bag limits and size limits with the legal size for flatties for sand flathead in port Phillip being 27cm
Such cute little flatheads. You should treat yourself to a trip up to South East QLD and have some fun catching flathead and if you're lucky you may even catch a metre long one.
Yes, it all matter with the current. Whenever I’m on the boat, the current is never to strong as I’m usually fishing in 10- 15knts winds. I always start with 1/6 ounce jig head size and only change my weight if I’m not getting anything from 1/4 to 1/8. In lakes and river you can’t go wrong with a 1/8 all the way to a 1/16, of course depending on the weight and size of the jig head (bigger soft plastic = heavier weight and vice versa). Hope that helps. There is so much to talk about so I can definitely make a video.
The emeraldas mx 86mh.n is a newer rod (made in 2021and $200 dollars cheaper whereas the 86mh.e is an older model (made in 2020) but is more expensive. When is comes to squid rods you can't go wrong with either of the emeraldas as an expensive rod doesn't matter to much. I'm looking to upload a video on how to catch squid landbased which will cover everthign you need to know.
Thanks so much bro, I’m afraid that the pier is privately owned so you won’t be able to fish off it as their is no access unless you have a house there. Obviously, I was with my mate and they have access to this pier, sorry for the inconvenience.
On the boat just go out in 3 meters of water, and gently drift with the wind pushing you either using baits or soft plastics and you’ll catch some decent fish
Man, you have a library of well edited videos on the go.. Well done! I like this format with the intro pulling out at home, getting to the ramp, motor over to the spot bit of a talk of the targets in mind. Yah great work mate, only a matter of time before pick up subs
Try fishing in 2-4 meters in water (if you have a boat) and fish in the heavy weed areas. Otherwise land based just fish near reefs, weed and rocky structure.
Always fun fishing along there. Worms or even unweighted bread works a treat. Mullet can live quite easily in brackish water but you'll find it's pretty salty quite high up in the Nong.
Good fishing, as I live in Queensland I don’t usually stop in Melbourne and just go the way to Tasmania where you catch the salmon and squid. The flat head I’ve found are easy catching in Queensland beaches especially in the areas around Hervey Bay to Bundaberg
Yeah thanks mate. Queensland is great I love fishing up there in the estuaries. Melbourne and Victoria has some great fishing in both freshwater and salt. If you ever get a chance stop over and have a fish it will be worth it.
@@FishingDownUnder1 maybe, I don’t usually go freshwater fishing for fish because apart from a couple the fight isn’t a long one and is easy I do enjoy using a pot to catch Redclaw though
Well done guys that one Garfish was huge! Gar fishing like that is good fun I find it more enjoyable than catching em on rod and reel. I used to own a few of those green nets but the mesh is pretty weak I recommend the viva blue ones from Anaconda so much stronger.
