Local fishing videos providing some basic tips on a range soft plastics and hardbody lures for all your favourite estuary and shore-based species. Some videos are also just a snapshot into my weekly catches, feel free to comment and ask any questions on tips and techniques!!
The aim of my videos is to help people maximise their time and ability to catch fish in the local area on affordable light gear.
Awesome vid Danga. Hey mate question... do you think canning river will be worth a cast for flatties in spring/early September? I tried earlier this month but only caught black bream... do you think the flatties will show up in the canning River area soon?
@jamesmould235 yeah mate September /October that area is good. No so much directly around the bridge but on the Bends and flat areas either side mate 👍
@leewood509 I don't think I have tried the pr knot will have to give it a run👍 yes for 40 gram + I would go 30lb as often metals sink faster over reef and weed and more likely need a bit of grunt to pull them out also if im using metals it's usually because of the wind and the heavier leader is less likely to snap on a wayward cast
Thanks Mike! Yes mate bit of a balance at the moment and hard to get consistent videos out! Got a few different ideas for some more technique talks until I can get out a bit more 👍👍
Interesting to see how you hold the rod & line when casting, I assume you are right handed, but you hold the line with your left hand. Thanks for the vlog.
Thanks mate! I am actually left handed and have a bit of a different technique but works well. This video has 3rd person video of how I cast ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4unJ-30nCMM.html
champion vid mate thanks for the tips, I have only just started fishing again and have been having a rough time with it being winter. I have just been trying to focus on structure but I swear those fish are avoiding me lol, thanks again
Good tips man. I love gold lures, especially for tailor in the late arvo. I find red lures work hell good when it's hot but in the cold shitty days dark lures and my theory is it has a stronger silhouette. Just my thoughts. All the best !
This upload has been soo helpful for grounding myself when needed man. It transports me to the bliss of flicking lures on a quiet night in just 5 minutes. Cheers for that.
I asked you the question because I am hesitant to take 10g or 20g. I would like to fish with my son and that he take a fish. With the 10g you caught a lot of fish?
@gino55yo ideally if you have a few different weights you can change lures to sed what works best for the conditions. For example on windy days yoy might need the extra weight to cast out or if heavy swell. 10g is good for herring if you can get the lure in the target area for sure 👍
Danga... you are an absolute legend mate! I always watch your videos every Wednesday night I really look forward to them. I went straight into tacklewest and got some 4 inch Zman Streaks Curly Tailz and went down to one of my spots and landed a 50cm flatty I was stoked. Thanks for letting us know what soft plastics are the go and love the videos mate 👍 Cheers and tight lines bro 🐟
I really struggled all last winter so I've been hibernating this winter waiting for spring.... might have to get out there and ping some lures at any bit of structure I see. A casting video would be good and, selfishly, an in depth winter tips and tricks video would be great too.
Solid fish I caught a 45 under a popular bridge in the mid to upper reaches on motor oil slim swim 1/16 jighead 4lb leader also caught a 38.5 and a few others I was stoked
I went upstream targeting bream but no structure so I targeted flathead on the sand with slim swims hopping along the bottom and got around 7 or 8 flattys some high 40s models on 4lb super light
@@MegaProcrastinating Using a weedless hook on placcies helps a lot and replacing the trebles on my diving hardbodies significantly reduced my loss rate too. 🙂
Good work mate. If you are keen for a lower reaches mish soon, would be fun to link up and flick some placcys. Good to see your still uploading in the throes of a busy life !
