    Hello, I am a beginner. Can I ask you a question? Can you tell me how to choose the right jighead weight?

    • @FishingDownUnder1
      @FishingDownUnder1 2 дні тому

      Yes, it all matter with the current. Whenever I’m on the boat, the current is never to strong as I’m usually fishing in 10- 15knts winds. I always start with 1/6 ounce jig head size and only change my weight if I’m not getting anything from 1/4 to 1/8. In lakes and river you can’t go wrong with a 1/8 all the way to a 1/16, of course depending on the weight and size of the jig head (bigger soft plastic = heavier weight and vice versa). Hope that helps. There is so much to talk about so I can definitely make a video.

    • @FishingDownUnder1
      @FishingDownUnder1 9 днів тому

      The emeraldas mx 86mh.n is a newer rod (made in 2021and $200 dollars cheaper whereas the 86mh.e is an older model (made in 2020) but is more expensive. When is comes to squid rods you can't go wrong with either of the emeraldas as an expensive rod doesn't matter to much. I'm looking to upload a video on how to catch squid landbased which will cover everthign you need to know.

      Try fishing in 2-4 meters in water (if you have a boat) and fish in the heavy weed areas. Otherwise land based just fish near reefs, weed and rocky structure.
