Nice to see Starlo back to the beach with the basic guides. I learn from his T.V. shows in Rex Hunt Fishing Adventure 20 years ago, that when I caught my FIRST Bream in Fremantle, Perth.
Bruce Basha okay? Just giving the term for the rig setup we use same as a Carolina rig, no notes to be taken since we use the same technique here in Hawaii. Cheers
Salty Lawaia Well said mate 👍That Bruce is a knobhead.... and I am a Aussie as well . Some people just can’t help themselves lol .... am sure you have the same type of people in the states . Cheers 🍻
What rod length do people reckon for beach fishing? Also as someone who generally fishes off rocks or jettys I keep learning about these gutters, great info to know.
If I was to beach for Whiting what type of rod and gear would I need? Im not looking to catch big fish, mostly whiting. Thanks. I would shop from BCF I think.
Hi Dean, if you're just chasing whiting on light gear I would suggest a light rod around the 9'-12' mark and a 2500-3000 sized reel with 12-15lb braid. While that still might be a bit much for whiting, it'll handle a majority of by-catch you may come across at the beach.
Gday .. where do you attach the leader first ? to the braid itself further up the line by a knot . or at the swivel . and the braid attaches to swivel as well
Im using braid, any tips for what to use to stop the ball sinker running up the leader and onto my braid? it gets caught on my FG (thinking of swapping out my braid for mono so this isnt a problem, cheers)
Hi Tom, run the leader from your FG to a swivel. Tie it on with a uni knot, then tie more leader on the other side. Put the sinker on this side and the swivel will stop it running up your line!
@@ShimanoAustralia thanks fro the reply. If I do this I would then need to add one more swivel to prevent the sinker making contact with the hook, so id have 2 swivels in the rig essentially?
@@ShimanoAustralia yeah I go the pat sometimes. Was hoping to find a solution where I didn't have to use 2 swivels. Maybe just a very long leader after the FG perhaps. Cheers
Catch your worms 1 hour either side the low tide Look for Channels, holes and gutters at low tide. Berley consistently from the time you arrive. Fish the incoming tide. Use the fish you catch as bait once you run out of worms or want to target a larger species.
