Fishing On A $50 Budget | VERY Surprising!! 

I only discovered Josh a few weeks ago. Still can't believe he has a licence, dude looks about 13 years old :-D. Great videos mate, love your work.

Hey Josh, just a challenge idea. Go to the lure bargain box in the store, close your eyes and pick a lure out at random and thats the only lure you're allowed to use. Cheers

Cool challenge! Love the bloopers, and giving away the rod fully rigged at the end was awesome. Great work Josh, keep the vids coming! 👍🏻

Excellent video as usual Josh. First time I used those plastics was in Merimbula NSW… I used it as a bottom lure with a jig head with the weight in front so the lure would stand up on the bottom like a defensive crustacean with the claws pointing upward. Landed Flatties, Pinkies, Whiting and Bream. What a challenge…might not need “high end gear” but it sure beats managing problems…..sometimes the experience of the angler can make some gear look and perform better than other anglers. Love your generosity…..the little girl will forever remember this day.

Great video Josh hope lots of parents see this and appreciate how cost effective This sort of fun can be for the kids .

A Joshy video never disappoints keep it up king

After fishing with rods that are *less than* 3 foot long for 2.5 years straight, it's surprising how much of an advantage you gain just going up to a 4.5-5 foot rod. It really makes you appreciate the enormous amount of leverage and control a 7-foot+ rod can give you. There are shorter rod blanks out there that will give you much better feel and action but then you're looking at a self-built custom rod in those short lengths. If nothing else that could be a neat fishing challenge for you. I can get solid glass ice rod blanks for $7 a pop. Not sure if they'd be easy to come buy from an AU source though. Upgrade the reel on that kiddy rod to one of those budget Shimano FX (they're $19 over here) it might be a pretty sweet little combo.

Great video Josh! Interesting challenge and was good to watch you land a few nice fish

Great video. Good concept and some nice fish. Loved the bloopers at the end. Keep up the good work 👍

Mate, your channel has quickly become my fav fishing show to watch. Good stuff.

Great video champ ! Well done . 👏👏👏 keep em coming mate .

Joshy mate, I was struggling to get some fish however you've helped me get attempts for closer. If it wasn't for the flopper method my life would be in shreds, I would of had no purpose and my mental health would have a downwards spiral. Keep up the good work and keep getting those fish.

Great challenge Josh, enjoyed the bloopers at the end.

Love watching your videos! I've only just started finishing again recently and watching your videos has helped me out. Thanks so much man! Keep it up 😊

Awesome videos, great channel always fun to watch and makes me hang to get out there more. You've convinced me to try lures more, never had any luck with them in the past. Would be great if you could do a noobs guide, maybe talk through reel, rod choice, what lines to use, use of a leader etc?

What an epic vid joshy. Just proves you don’t need all the experience gear to go out and have fun. Almost 10k yewwwww

U know it’s a good day when Josh uploads

Great vid mate. Awesome to see what you can do with a cheap setup and they really can be pretty fun. Guilty to say I have had fun on my daughters old little Jarvis walker guppy spincast setup. The drags are always atrocious 😂😂😂

Congratulations on 10k josh!! Used to ride with you when u were into scooters man great to see your channel growing!!

Awesome! release on the Perch Josh.Picture perfect.You are such a Talented young man,n u seem so well spoken.Your parents have done an awesome job with u they should be so proud.Cant wait till your next Vlog.

Cracker video this Josh!! Great concept and fishing session mate! Nice flatties and perch caught out of some gnarly surroundings. The $25 rod & reel bargain fared well, but that drag was horrendous.........you did an awesome job on dealing with it! It was a very generous gesture from you giving that young girl the kit.......hope you're rewarded in kind for your good karma!

Excellent challenge video. Some very nice fish. Estuary perch would have been fun on your cheap combo.

Josh these videos just keep getting better and better each week. Keep up the great work

keep up the bangers dozza!! love how much youve been growing lately. proud of ya mate!!

So glad to be part of pre 10k ur gonna be sky rocketing soon keep up the great work

Love the Pink Rod Josh lol, you done really good mate for what it is 👍🏼

Quality vid Josh, you can even catch big Perch on the 50 dollar rod awesome mate.I had a flick down your way, one healthy system you have there, was catching fish in half a meter of water. Congratulations on the 8k well deserved Josh.

You never disappoint mate, great video. It was great to see you give the HotRod to that kid, that’s sometime she will never forget. Good one champ

Was looking forward to the video josh thanks for it mate.

Great vid mate looks fun! 👍🏾

Man your actually goated, slaying on the kiddy combo. Keep it up big fella👍

Fantastic Josh. That was loads of fun. 😄

Yes josh we love an upload, you need to make more challenge videos!

🤣🤣 the tree must have been hungry

Another awesome video, Great to see some fish caught on those zman crusteaz. I bought a few packs on special thinking they looked great for the price, hasn’t produced for me yet. But I don’t hate the way they look in the water.

Your casting is next level! Well done mate!

Just goes to show that it's not the tools that matter, it's the tradesman! 💪That EP was a big bastard too, awesome specimen

Great video as always. Your videos never disappoint 😁

Those were some tru blu bloopers pissed myself laughing great video

Another great video king, they subscribers are flying up, be at 10 k next week!!

The Bloopers though!!.🤣🤣🤣

I loved the footage in the tackle shop always nice to see great pedal powered kayak would be ten fold better than paddling keeping your arms free to cast whenever great video mate!

sorry i missed the upload josh theses vids make my day 🤙

Loving the vids Joshy! Keep up the efforts mate👍

I really enjoyed watching this video I would love to see more of these in the future

Found your videos a month or so ago and found myself wanting to fish more and now have been going out every morning fishing and coming home and watching your videos. Love the work mate keep it up 🙌🙌🙌

bloody oath lad i been subbed since the 84 and ur channel has exploded congrats on what will be 10 k subs byh the time ur next vid is out

It’s always a good to see the notification pop-up on my phone Josh

50 yrs ago when I was your age we could only afford reels of that quality. First thing you did was take the drag washers out and refinish the metal washers with wet and dry sandpaper a drop of oil and a flat sheet of glass. Improved them no end when the drag breaks easily the whole rig feels so much better.

Nice EP's mate..Especially using that Hot-Rod 😂 Keep it up mate, Felt like ages waiting for this one!

Love it mate 💯 great job.🤙

“Yeah I’m not putting that in the video that was cringe” had me in stitches ahahahah

comfortable fishing trip🍻🍻🍻

Omg it’s the legend Josh keep it up good job

Another banger Josh, also recently bought my first lure rod because of your videos😁 10k subs on it’s way ( U deserve it) Keep up the good work mate👍🏻 When you become famous you have to remember us as the og’s

Love your videos mate! Keep up the good work

I wouldnt last10 minutes on a $50 budget casting into potential snags like that, your accuracy is crazy good bro

Not smart mate... you blew 40% of your budget on fuel and a servo water. Really enjoying your vids. Chanel has a bright future I think. Keep em' coming.

Joshy!!! Well done mate. Happy Australia Day for yesterday

Love these videos.you need a rapala city sling bag for your flats fishing and walking out from shore.

you are The only reason i starred fishing keep up the work

Nice job .there are very few guys like you on the tube Just remember the keep enjoying yourself and when the sponsors start knocking on your door keep it as low profile as possible

very good video mate love to see u doing what u love.

Great video Josh! Was very surprising to see that setup actually catching some decent fish. I’ve just bought a Legalis 2500 and looking for a rod to go with it, my dad has a 7’0” 2-4kg ugly stick gold that he said he’d give me - I think it’s a fibreglass rod though… would it be any good for the styles of fishing you do? (Soft plastics and hard bodies/surface etc)

I don’t know why but every time I watch your videos I start getting obsessed with fishing so much

Josh those bloopers made me laughing out loud! you should do them in more videos!

congratualions on 10k subs

Great video like always

love the bloopers Josh
