Rock Fishing for Big Tuna! Bonito and Longtails On Fire! 

Thanks Smithy - missed you on the ledge for that one mate

Thanks for watching mate! He loves his rock fishing John

You and me both Owen. I didn’t have a lot line left there at the end of that run lol

Thanks mate! Was a great fish and that first run was epic.

Thanks mate! I appreciate you watching

Thanks for watching mate. Been a few donuts this season but hopefully the tail end is a good one. Should be a heap of fishing heading north I reckon

@@robtaylorshotwater I am hearing of good numbers in between you and me mate so hopefully they keep cruising up 💪🏻

Thanks Gerry!

Thanks for watching mate. Northern NSW

Thanks for watching the vids mate! Not Jervis. I’m based up in Coffs so am fishing locally here

Thanks for watching!

Thanks Troy

Thanks Gents! Always appreciate you guys watching. Osss

Thanks for watching mate. Getting good drifts is the hardest part of chasing longies I reckon. If you’ve got wind behind you then big balloons is the go as they’ll get blown out. If wind is to the side or in your face then real small balloons with A bit of water in them does the trick. Also need to use the backwash when waves hit the rocks. Lob your bait out as the hits and the backwash helps get it clear. You need to get your bait out last the white water for tuna as they rarely feed in the bubbles. I like a bait T least 50m out.

@@robtaylorshotwater huge thanks for the information mate, do you just drop flick it in the wave after it hit the rocks, letting it go out with the wave?

@@jzfishing103 Yes mate. More of a lob as it’s hard to cast far with a balloon so just lob it out right as the wave hits the rocks. Too early and the wave will push your bait onto the rocks and snag, too late and the next wave will hit it and snag. A bit of practice and you’ll get the timing worked out. Good luck

@@robtaylorshotwater cheers mate

Great sound hey. I might have underestimated it a bit as it was definitely a long fish and in good condition. Either way it went like the clappers lol

@@GHOSTspearfishing Nah mate - not for that spot. If you can’t get out of the water there then shouldn’t be on the rocks.

@@robtaylorshotwater understand, I just thought it was a legal thing to wear them?

@@GHOSTspearfishing I think there’s designated areas down around Sydney where they have to be worn mate. No doubt it will be a state wide rule some day.

@@robtaylorshotwater anyways, im still hunting for my first Tuna, no luck so far. and the tunas dont seem to care re lifejacket lol

Thanks mate - I’m fishing in northern NSW. Thanks for watching

Thanks for watching mate. Perfectly safe if you know what you’re doing. Was a great fish

Thanks John. I use Platypus Pretest off the rocks mate. It’s got good abrasion resistance for the stones.

Mate - burley with bread and use any kind of fish flesh for bait. I like Bonito or tuna. Bread is also a good bait for them

Where are you based mate?

@@robtaylorshotwater Im based in windsor, but have no issues driving where ever. I've had some experience rock fishing but for kingies and other species. Really want to get into the game fish.

@@robtaylorshotwater Got a family place I stay at Nambucca heads, so looking to fish coffs ledges for a couple days in the upcoming weeks since the season is on

@@intensehotdog No worries, let me k is when you’re heading up and we can try work something out.

@@robtaylorshotwater Awesome mate, so from your videos, for this spot you avoid when its a southerly? Trying to figure out a good couple days to come
