Such an interesting perspective Michael. Great video, but really dislike the double standards I must say. I was the first one on that school of snapper, before you and your mate also came over. I wasnt fussed at all, instead happily kept fishing and didn't say anything! So you could see my surprise when my mate showed me this. When you and your mate joined, you guys went into my casting area and you could say "crowded the area." But Iwasnt fussed at all! I was just happy when other fellow kayak fishos get onto fish too. Each to there own, but for me, I'm happy when others share the joy of getting snapper, and we were all laughing and having a good time. I can understand if boats were going into it, as it's plain dangerous,.but c'mon mate, don't complain about something you do yourself 😅

That's a beast of trout, I hope to get down there one day... He was obviously hungry, took it right down. What line are you running mate?

What a horse of a fish, that would look nice mounted, but nice of you to release it, total gentleman.

Beautiful looking fish well done that river is pumping in the main current! i think the 2 car shuffle would be in order for sure going upstream in that would be tough going in a fishing kayak

Gorgeous brown Michael, well done.

Why I don't fish Ricketts

What an absolute circus! All those boats must be having a massive impact on the fish stocks. You need a few heavy sinker to hurl at them boats that get a little too close!

That is ridiculous with all the kayaks so close. 1 or 2 nearby is ok but dozen or more plus boats no thanks

Boats like that is why I avoid Lake Nagambie like the plague. The river is much more relaxing.

Kayakers are like the cyclists of the of the ocean.

No problem as long there not in my Berlie trail?

Im pretty sure that boat drove through my lines the other day 🤣 we had a charter boat drop anchor behind our boat 3 times. I thought surely his taking the piss. No respect out there.

Guy in the boat is a total flog, seen ugly scenes in the past when they do it to the wrong person. They don’t hand out common sense with boat licenses.

Absolute madness... seagulls to a chip!

THAY ARE WATCHING YOU LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU Darren from Coffs harbor

Try fishing Portarlington pier on a weekend. Shoulder to shoulder and no chance of a spot as people are taking shifts for the proven spots.

Nah that’s just too much.. Nothing turns Vic fishos into bigger assholes and dickheads than peak snapper season

It's a com on thing these days courtesy has completely disappeared once upon a time if you went past another fisherman you'd slow right down I do t know if you play golf but the same thing happens there it used to be a golden rule to allow people on the green to putt out before playing up these days you have to watch for incoming missiles

Hey, I was here first!

Hard for kayaks to travel like a boat, so don’t mind kayakers fishing next to each other! One big family anyway!

Hahaha like a bunch of covid heads fighting over toilet paper

This happens because people cant keep their mouth shut when they start catching fish in one area, if everyone keeps it to themselves until the fish move on then post, this wont happen as much

hey michael, I was just wondering what lure you were using, thanks

You always know it's Snapper season in Melbourne when you are close enough to another vessel to smell their farts 😂 I've had it a few times now where I've hooked into a good fish and a boat will anchor up less than 15 metres away from me while I'm fighting the fish. Where I've been fishing lately it's been packed with kayaks as well as a few boats. I largely don't mind as long as we're all basically doing the same thing; going up wind of where the fish are holding, drifting through the area and then peeling back around to the start of the drift. You can kind of do it in a formation and in a rotation where everyone can have a shot at the fish. What I get frustrated by is when we're all doing this already and someone comes along and anchors right in the middle of us, this happened recently and I tried to be nice and tell the guy to do what we are doing as it is producing fish and him anchoring over our drift line is a pain - he yelled at me and told me to f off. I slightly changed my drift line and kept catching; he got nothing but banjos, cracked the shits and left 😂

Stuff fishing in there ! Your brave. Jee that water gives me the creeps

Hi mate, are you using braid for your setup? Were you using a sounder to mark up fish? Thanks

Hi , what pound braid and leader do you use?

Cracker video, im just wondering how far you are out from shore? what size jig heads were u using?

onya sir

Leave some for the rest of us 😂

Holy crap, it’s like rush hour out there!

Wow what an absolute ripper session, some great fun on the light gear, especially the bigger models... Nice of you to get matey onto some fish too. That one around 21:00 minutes in put up a cracker fight for its size, good stuff trying to give everyone the tips to get on the fish, keep up the awesome work as always mate. The fish around the 24:00 minute was definitely the highlight, I reckon 🎣

more boats and yaks than seagulls this time of year

Great sesh mate, well done. Im trying to try this location on my yak for s long time now but to be honest just no time as I’ve done some surgery recently but hitting the water soon, do u mind sharing a place where to put the kayak drom and maybe a location on the water?? Tux

Cleaned up mate! Great work mick. 👌

Wow they go hard mate, I never realised they fought like that 🎣💪

Cracker mate, well done on that beautiful bow

Nice one Michael! looks like they punch above their weight it is so different for someone who lives inland seeing a fish like that landed in a kayak!

Beautiful solid fish well done! Really working that minnow, I see you baby shakin' that minnow 🤣 I will have to try that seems to get the job done, it's more akin to how I work soft plastics

What a fish!! And the backdrop is stunning. 🤩 keep casting!

My favorite way to fish, from my kayak on remote lakes🌠🐟👋😎👍Dayum nice thick rainbow

❤

Really nice

Nice one Michael! Great work, It looks so unnatural to be fishing there in a kayak, you see the odd person fishing off the bank in those sort of areas but i have never seen someone fishing out of a kayak there, you have gotta not wait until someone else does somthing to do it! There is maybe 4-5 hundred people employed where i work and i am the only one that rides a non-ebike to work one other bloke rides on e-bike it's about 17km out there so that puts a few off! It's amazing how there is still fish in such heavily populated areas, would the fish be any good to eat out of there or would they absorb to much pollution?

Fishy fishy!

Seeing your line twitch when the EP first tapped at your SP. I rewatched that bit of the vid multiple times. gets the heart racing. Thanks for sharing

I have caught an EP very much the same before, it's like they have stunted growth or something haha Not a long fish but big fish 😅 It's like they are already as built as a 45-50 model but the length is only around 25-30cm...

Looks like a cross between a yella and a EP 😂 Nice fish! Keep up the great work! Tight lines bro! 🎣🤙🎣🤙
