Hey mate… there’s a few models. If you are using 100g jigs there should be a light jigging rod rated to 100g or 120g I think the one below 120 will be ideal. Otherwise you won’t get the bend through the rod and nice action. Personally I would go lighter as they are great rods and once hooked up can handle big fish.
For determining current… there are a few ways. To determine direction on naviknics. You can check the direction of the wind and see if there is any influence on the drift line. You can also drop a lure below the boat to see which direction it goes. Sometimes getting snagged means you are in the right area. But to avoid… look how fast your lure sinks, then compare to the water depth and count out the time in your head. I hope that helps…
@@saltydogs8631 Cheers mate, yeah I've got a feeling it will slay. I've just started on social media, I'm on Instagram and Facebook as UpNorthFishingAdventures. I'll be adding photos to that with the sniper, sugar pen, hardz cicada etc this summer. Just waiting for my leg to heal and I'll be straight back into it. 👍🏻🎣
I used these with the Team Catfish weight slides to make a ru-vid.comUgkxdmsDj7fQXe77DC0l7P7ua8B3PiESUubM Carolina rig and they were perfect for the ponds I fish. I have also used them to make 3 way rigs and these work perfectly. Haven't had any issues with them snagging in rocks or in weeds yet.
What weight is that fly rod and what fly line do you use I'm looking to get into fly fishing but don't know were to start i would like to have one rod and reel to do a much as possible
Tell that fella they are both a 6wt rod and reel and 6wt floating line that is a good setup to start learning fly fishing with as its easy to learn to cast with and you can target all your estuary favs like flathead bream whiting and blackfish and even pelagics if on a boat and it will also work perfectly as a freshwater outfit for trout and bass… If its a rod or reel rated for 5/6 weight or 6/7 weight both perfect…spend more on the rod than the reel if it isn’t a combo. Hopefully this helps
@@saltydogs8631 thankyou that helps a lot fly fishing is a hole new rabbit hole to go down is there any particular fly line that works best for all the species you mentioned
@@saltydogs8631 this year have been a long season water temperature is still warm and marlins are still being caught in sydney. It must be the La Niña effect
Josh Pittorino it’s a Kees has filleting blade... comes in 2 sizes 9 and 7 inch... I have both, but use the smaller one mainly for bread and butter stuff
Gavin Fitzgerald hey mate, the knife is a 7 inch Kershaw filleting blade. You can grab one from frogleysoffshore.com.au.... they are a distribution company but during Covid you can get it sent from the warehouse but charged yo your local tackle store. It explains it online. Happy filleting
Good question... No need if you are doing this when catching your own... Bit different at the markets when they come in big batches. Want to keep them as fresh and tasty as possible
