You actually could have get that first barra really easy but you were probably too excited about it as you kept moving the lure pretty fast without letting it work and be eaten.. in fact with the second barra (the first that you caught), you let the lure doing its job and the barra got it straight away. Sometimes it’s about patience and be calm😉
Man I'd love to go fishing with this bloke bet he's full of tips. I'm hooked on the drunken mullets but only got big hits not any catches. Dont have a sounder so it makes it a bit shit haha.. like your vids man keep it up 💪🏻
Yeah mate, no point mucking around with light leader, you’ll only be losing fish! I’d recommend a minimum of 80lb when you’re after those metre plus fish to avoid being rubbed off. Typically I’ll use 30lb braid (most good quality 30lb’s are very difficult to break on a snag let alone a fish). Rod is usually around that 10-20lb rating with reels sized around 3000-4000 for spin and generally a 200 size for bait casters.
Hey Bowly. Love the vids mate. Can you give some feedback on the MG trolling motor? Thinking about getting one, but have read and heard some bad reviews, especially with the accuracy of the spot lock. Reports saying the spot lock hunts around, and will not be as precise as the Minn Kota's. Keen to hear your take on it, given the amount of fishing you do. Thank you.
Had mine for about 4 years, very minor gps issue at the start, simple upgrade n she's sweet, 1500 cheaper no complaints. I've heard all the horror stories but I'm about to put a 36v on my 7m boat.
Hey mate, I haven’t had one of the newer model minn kota’s but this Motorguide in comparison to the old minn kotas I had, is that the motorguide is pretty good. Spot lock is pretty good to be honest and it’s much quieter than pretty much any minn Kota I’ve used which is great for this style of fishing as the stealth is important.
