I have had a different bait in mind that I have been wanting to try on Murray cod for a long time, well I finally got the chance to go and try it. Filmed with: amzn.to/3BorZQg Edited with: store.movavi.com/affiliate.ph...
I’m 48 and grew up in Northern NSW, fishing the Gwydir river. As a kid I was always given the job of getting the bait - digging worms for hours and catching yabbies by the hundred. These days we use chicken breast or chicken thigh. It’s fantastic bait and so easy to get.
Hey Robbie, I used to be a big guy too, but I changed, I had to re health. Anyway this worked for me. I stopped drinking booze and fizzy drinks, I went vegetarian (Avocados are your friend), I drank lemon water, slice a lemon and add water, hot or cold. 1 coffee a day. I ate a lot of dairy and eggs, avocado, cucumber and cream cheese. Lots of pasta and rice dishes. lost 30+kg. Didnt increase exercise, but I stayed activeish
I enjoy your vids I’m from the USA the state of Pennsylvania, I fish for a lot of different species but mostly trout, it’s interesting to see how other folks fish around the world and I picked up some techniques from you that I can apply here on creeks in my area and I’ve bin fishing for 59yrs. Great job.
Thanks Deb. Haha Thay is one of my favourite sayings. It runs through my head every time I start packing way too many lures to go fishing, it too many cameras. Haha
Mr. Jack of all trades, nice job with the net and little shrimp trap. Love the idea of the beef fat, seems perfect, but having the same problem with the Edward, water levels all over the place, temps all over the place, and the fishing seems hit or miss lately. Great job and look forward to seeing you use the 'secret' bait again!
A very good step to loosing weight, drop the carbs, it's simple, clear and unambiguous (no BS negotiations with yourself). Don't confuse simple with easy.
LOL 😂 Improvisation at its best love it. I always take with me Inghams Chicken Chippees (LOL that’s my secret bait) not nuggets because I find they are to chunky. I sometimes cut them in half or quarters. I find other brands of Chippees don’t have enough “body” in them. I caught but never got into the boat a huge cod on a piece of chicken Chippees about 10mm long, my gung-ho mate didn’t use the net correctly- head first only. Awesome video
Hey mate. I have a cod in my fish tank she's been there for 10 years now and she lives on beef chicken pork and prawns. Not the fat but the lean meat. CHEERS
I reckon that was one of your best vids mate , you had a moment forgetting a few things but turned it around . The Pepsi can shrimp trap is a winner , your an ideas man . hahaha.
GOOD bit of improv. Chicken usually gets a few fish in fresh AND salt water! I've been getting IN to the whiting the past few weeks! Had a few BIG feeds of whiting! Had a feed tonight!
Thanks UF. Thays awesome. Are they King George Whiting? I caught some over 20 years ago at Portland. They were the easiest fish that I have ever filleted.
@@robbiefishing Yep! Common type in Vic & SA! There's been a LOT around in PP Bay! NOT sure about Westernport however, haven't had a chance to try with the prevailing easterlies that blow every arvo, making the penninsula side unfishable most days land based! It would mean driving ALL the way over to the eastern side to get an OFFSHORE wind, that would make it fishable! As to whiting's filleting abilites, yes, pretty darn easy, & easy to debone! Makes GREAT sashimi! 1 of those fish that are good raw OR cooked! Some fish are only good cooked, & some only good raw, like salmon for instance! Totally disgusting cooked, but raw, amazing!
Nice work mate, I reckon that fat will work very well. Spewing about the huge bite you missed! I caught a 70cm carp on a huge cube of cheese and a massive hook the other day while fishing for cod LOL
In answer to your question about Yellowbelly taking cheese, Robbie. In over 20 years of fishing the Murrumbidgee, I caught a 40cm Yella on some Colby cheese last week. I had another rod with a yabbie on a paternoster rig about a metre away from the rod with the cheese too.
Nice video Robbie hey I’ve destroyed a few of those chair’s in my day. I wont say i was over weight but I was over weight 🤣. Nice to see your ingenuity paying off with the shrimp net and the landing net. 👍🏻
@@robbiefishing unfortunately I’ve destroyed a few older and much sturdier wooden chair’s too. I (was) far bigger than you then, fifty kgs later the chair’s are safe now. 🤣😝
Heh Robbie, It 's an Idea, but cook steak with fat on cut off and use cooked fat before you eat It, I know It will be hard to resist for you but maybe cod as well!
Hey Robbie, when does it get warm enough in the murray to catch shrimp? And are there yellowbelly around Barmah, ulupna area? BTW I got a 60cm murray cod at edi (king valley) last week but had to put it back as it's out of season
Hi mate, well done on your cod. There's no set date for the shrimp, but usually around mid October they start to come on the bite. They definitely don't like the.cold water. They might even already be biting in the lower Murray where it's been really hot. I've.never fished that section of the Murray mate, but I'm pretty certain that there are yellowbelly there.
Totally off topic here but things are heating up here in Canada as I'm sure you are aware. I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for what you are doing. I'd rather be fishing BUT the government has messed up managing that so badly you more often than not end up striking out when you do get to the water.
Thanks mate. Thay really sux. Our fisheries managers do an amazing job here in my state. The next stage to my west, South Australia has the worst fishing in the country.
The next time your returning fish back in the water, try putting them back in a bit more gentle as throwing them like you do will actually kill them, it won’t kill them straight away but can happen over a day or two.
No disrespect mate, but how do I do that from that height? If I walk down to the lower ground then they are out of the water for too long and I risk having my other rod pulled in when I am not there. These fish live in rocky gorge country in both NSW and Victoria when they tumble over ledges and small waterfalls. I've actually jumped into the water from much higher and it's really not that bad.
@@robbiefishing you seem to have every excuse under the sun……have to walk to far……fish out of the water for too long………other rod might get pulled in……it’s got nothing to do with fish tumbling over rocky ledges or water falls…….or you jumping into the water from great heights….. Just put the fish back into the water a bit more gentle and don’t throw them from great heights or they could die it’s not real hard. A lot of fishermen or fisher persons actually hold the fish in the water and get some water through their gills before release. No Disrespect to you or your channel I do actually like watching your videos.
That was a video of not the best things happening robbie In the spot where you are that is where I caught my first yellow bellie. It is also my only one though. It was about 20 cm
Haha D..E..D.. dead for the live shrimp!! I say that all the time when using live bait!! I’ve finally found someone who also says it too!! I’ve found my soul brother 😂
Hahahaha Love it. People take me seriously sometimes and I have no idea why. Every time I call an echidna a porky-pine people feel the need to correct me. 🤣🤣
