Another great video, thanks
Thanks Trent
Im all for conservation and respect slot limits, but i yhink its absolutely crap that rec fishermen are not allowed to take thise larger flathead - I wouldnt myself- but all of the professionals who are skilled and take every day are not prevented from taking them and are allowed to. Its incredibly biased and does nothing to help the species
Abalone there too next to the cuttlefish
Well spotted. Little abalone hanging on
Buggy maybe your best yet . Great info, realistic to the point. Mimicking nature and trying to deceive a fish is actually really hard. . People who don’t fish think it’s just plonk it in and catch
Thank you, Colin. Yeah, some people think fishing is just luck. Lots of skill involved and one of those things where you never stop learning
@@bugsyfishing for sure my brother. I always enjoy your channel it’s a special feeling sun coming up putting them cleats on…….. clink clink clink then thinking wow other people are in traffic etc plus the best bit just you, roar nature , God and no women…… lol
Anyone who shoots whiting needs to go to the Olympics!!
Hahaha... sign me up for LA28
Water looks good but cold, Great video , thanks.
Thank you, Trent. Always worth getting in the water, although a little brisk
How's the fishing been on the ledge for you this winter. Awesome dive
Hey mate, I haven't been fishing this winter. I was out injured and then just been through a busy patch. I hear it has been pretty slow though
@bugsyfishing yeah it's been slow for me as well, kinda turned me off until the warm waters arrive tbh. Hope your allg man and hope to see you back in action. 🤙🤙
@@grunty3743 cheers mate. Pretty much back to 100%
@@bugsyfishing love to hear 👌
Middle of winter in Sydney, 18C with the sun out.... don't get frost burnt mate 😄
Haha... that westerly is brisk
Another awesome video Bugsy, love the spearing vids too.
Thanks Ben
What rod and reel for bonitos you reckon bro ?
My go to gear is a 6000 size reel with PE3 braid and a rod around the 10 foot mark rated the same as the line. This gives you some scope to land the odd bigger by-catch here and there. I like the Oceans Legacy Specialist rod in PE2-4. I think it is 9'8"
@@bugsyfishing okay mad ! Cheers 🤙🏼🤙🏼
is this RNP?
I'd prefer not to say
@@bugsyfishing nws. understood.
@@user-sz3nn2lb6u cheers mate. Hope you get some fish
@@bugsyfishing you too
What rig are you running for your livies? Are you running a sinker?
This day I was running about 1.5m of 100lb monofilament trace to an 8/0 hook, the other end has a swivel with the float above that. No sinker. I tie a rubber band as a float stopper around the leader above the float so there is about 3-5m from the rubber band to the hook. I adjust depending on the depth of water
How deep is near the bank? 🙏
It drops of pretty quick from 12-20m
@@bugsyfishing 🙏
amazing fishing buddy
Cheers mate
Is this ledge near maroubra?
Hi Luca, it's in Sydney. I don't like to give away much more than that. Cheers
Hi! May i know the weight of your rod? Is It heavy to cast? Looks solid and can handle even big fish. Thnks
Hi there, it weighs 360g. Light but strong enough to handle some decent fish. Cheers
@@bugsyfishing hi! Is it ok to match it with my gosa 6k reel for shore jigging? Thnks
@@medreo6130 yeah, 6k Saragosa is good with PE3 line
Hey mate just wondering where the spot is, been tryying to find some rock fishing spots but all of them have been too hard to get down onto or unsafe, all good if it is secret?
Yeah, I try not to give away spots. All the ocean ledges have their day. And all are dangerous spots to fish exposed to the swell
What hill was that you dragged it up
Hi Les, I couldn't find a park near the beach so had to drag the kayak way north to get back to the car
Hi! Nice catch, may i know pls what rod are you using and its specs like PE and length? Thnk you
Hi there, in this vid I am spinning with a 9'8" PE2-4 rod and a 6000 size reel with PE3 line. The heavier set up is PE8 line on a 20000 size reel, 8'3" PE8 rod.
@@bugsyfishing is the rod heavy or lighter for shore jigging? I saw there is a MH model 1002 can I use 6k size reel or bit small for rod rating? Thnk in advance..
@@medreo6130 medium heavy PE3 range is good for the 6000 size reel
@@bugsyfishing thnk you for all your response
You are brave going there on a kayak 😅
A little spooky at times
Hey guys, do you prefer using cleats or shoes with spikes. Cheers 👍
Hey mate, I used the Snowline Chainsen Pro spikes. The ones you pull over your shoes. Just because then I don't need to take another pair of shoes. But I think the old school cleats that you screw into your shoes provide better grip. But the Chansen ones work, you just need to make sure they don't wear down too much, as they start to slip
You still use your kayak to fish ? Havent seen any new kayak videos
A little here and there. Last kayak vid I published was in April
As I’m watching I find myself holding my breath every time the camera is under the water.
I'll have to put more above water clips in then haha
if you just open bail on the yakkas with a single hook they will smash it
Float or no float?
awesome video mate! Glad to see you posting again.
Thank you Chris!
do u do head cam or chest cam which one do u prefer?
Mainly head cam. I used to do chest too but only use a little bit of that footage here and there
Thanks for the Video bro that was a good day🤙🏽🤙🏽 spewing you didn’t catch me other kingie on vid🤣
Great fishing with you. I know, always missing the big kings on vid! Haha
With the liveys do you cast it out or do you wait for it to float all the way out?
Generally drop it in and let it drift
where is that
Hey Xavier, Sydney ocean ledges. Both in the north and south. I prefer not to giveaway spots
Warriewood blow hole.
I heat ads
I hear ya
Hey Bugsy. I actually like the Sambos to eat just as much as Tailor. Don’t pay any attention to me though, as just a fishing sprog compared to you. Love yr vids, go Bugsy!😮
Yeah, the sambos can be pretty good tucker. I was hoping that one was a king though so was a little disappointed
Great to see you back out there mate!
Thanks Rory. Such a good way to start the day!
Wowwww two vids in two days 🤯 Best way to end the day is with a bugsy video ❤
Thanks mate. Yeah, just had a little window to edit some footage
Another great episode bro, you’ll get the big one soon🤙
Thanks bro. It will come. I enjoy being out there in the fresh air anyways. Fish is just a bonus

Kings dont mind the cold water i used to catch meter plus kings in the dirty Hawksbury water in 12deg water temp in the winter.
Nice. Looking forward to getting back out there
Thanks for sharing, love it!

Hey Bugsy Was that recently or a while ago. The Bonnie's are still on 👏👏👏
At least a few weeks ago
That was a fun morning Bugsy! Successful quick strike mission 🔥🤙🏽 Yeeewww
Always good fishing with you Hai. Hopefully soon
Nice little window. I've found sometimes you get a 20 min window right at the top of the tide in rough swells. You only get a VERY small window and you have to be read with your watch looking at the time. When it's over the tide dropping will bring the swell right back with a vengeance.
Yeah, it can come back with a vengeance quickly for sure
Bugs is that a aliexpress sinking minnow
Or is it a duo
Yeah, Duo Rough Trail Blazin 110 in Ivory Halo
