Would you swim here? No mate I wouldn't swim anywhere in AU unless it was a swimming pool and even then there's people who have woken up to find a Croc in their swimming pools. Ya not even safe on land. Here's a small list of what AU has to offer, respect them at a distance! White sharks, Bull Sharks, Tiger Sharks, Blue Ringed Octopus, Box Jellyfish, Cone Snails, Tiger Snake, Red Back Spider, Sydney Funnel Web Spider, Stonefish, Brown Snake, Inland Taipan, Gators and Salt Water Crocs, Irukanji Jellyfish, Death Adder, Red Bellied Black Snake, Yellow Bellied Sea Snake, Blue Bottle, Highland Copperhead, Lionfish, Bull Ant, Giant Centipede. And these are just some of the ones I can remember I am sure it goes way higher when this list would cover as far a field as Tics also. I mean you can't go about life worrying what might be under each stone you encounter but still the fact remains you need to be extra careful in certain places opposed to others.
@@TheDemonGamerOfFleetStreet Yes Australia definitely can be dangerous. I once saw a brown snake, strewn over a walking track. Lucky i stopped a few meters from it as i noticed it, and it slithered into a dead tree hollow. You'd never know it was in there!. And brown snake is amongst the deadliest in the world! Many venomous spiders here too, very common!
@Sharpshooter99100 oh so are you from AU then? Am I talking to a Ozzy here? If so then big love brother. Australia is such a lovely place I think Britain got it wrong, they should have made Britain into this penal colony they talk of and moved sticks to AU instead of staying in Britain 😂. That's just a joke but it's the weather I mean it's beautiful. Here's the thing I love all nature even the dangerous ones like white sharks, Bulls, Tigers both in water and land, crocs, red backs, Sydney Funnel Webs I love them all they fascinate me they always have, but from a distance. I would move there to AU tomorrow if I could, I wouldn't swim in the ocean still though and I would be shaking my shoes out every morning that's for sure. Hey did you ever see that old codger walking down the street that kicked that snake outta the way? Sure it was AU too. That guy didn't give a hoot he looked down on that thing and he shoed it off twice with his foot? Couldn't believe it the guy was in his 70s or 80s and he was like geeeed oooooutta my wayyy I'm going for my morning paper. No joke bro lol
@@TheDemonGamerOfFleetStreet Yes i live in Straya! Oz is beautiful, i was in London till around 10yrs ago then made it over here. The weather is good most of the time, but we have our own set of problems too, bushfires, heatwaves and drought, and some extreme floods. Winter can be cold depending on where you live. I'm in the South, and winter does get cold but not to extent of the UK. But we never think it gets cold when in England and don't hear of it! I did see that old fella video where the dude kicks the brown snake out of the way, i think if he knew what he was messing with, he'd neve have done it! Funny old world! I'd just walk away or stand still if i saw a snake, not worth messing with these things! I've seen funnel webs and red backs. Funnel webs are scary looking. I'd be happier is its dead, than looking at me!
back in 90s me n a mate caught a few bull sharks round ippy that were over 5ft .also caught a 6ft bull shark in the river near bannockburn , south of beenleigh .i use to go fishing in morton bay n have seen many big bull n tiger sharks round peel island .biggest shark i seen was a great white when i was fishing just outside the pin bar .we were in a 18ft cat n this thing was as long as the boat or close to it .id never swim in surf or in any river unless the river was further west than roma but even then id be worried lol .
I remember snorkelling in Maroochydore inlet in the early 90s collecting huge oysters when i saw a 14 foot Tiger shark swimming above me needles to say i left those huge Oyster alone after that.
When kayaking from Breakfast Creek to the Story Bridge , definitely felt a large presence under our vessels off New Farm after seeing a number of fish jumping out of the water as if synchronised swimming. This was only a few weeks ago.
my husband and his mates always swam in the Brisbane river around OXLEY ,CORINDA ,SHERWOOD , never heard of bull sharks in those day 40 years ago or so ,never had an issue
I used to swim in the pine river and Coochin creek as a teenager. Knowing what I do now, I would have never been game enough. Also swam crab pots out in Caboolture river, Burpengary creek and Pumicestone passage near Donnybrook.
Gold Coast Canals are full of them too. I caught a few and put them in my GF's Dads pool. Being a salt water pool I foolishly thought they'd live happily at least for a few weeks but the chlorine knocked them out after just a few hours.
Was doing a piling job on the goodna reach about 10yrs ago and the boys wouldn't believe me when i told them there was plenty of bull sharks up there so caught a catfish cut him open and set a row a gang hooks in him and in a short amount of time pulled up a decent sized bull shark after that they thought the people skiing up there were crazy .
Yer mate there just juveniles they won't worry you while you are swimming. But the big females that go up the river to pup will give you a bit of curry. Some of the bulls we see while spearing on the reefs a lot of them you would have a hard time getting them in your boat let alone the net. Keep up the good work 👍
Them big females and bull males out the reef definitely make ya nervous. I don’t think I’d have the balls to do it 😅 Hooked a few out on the reef and they’re just monstrous can’t get em up half the time.
How far up river did u go i live at fairney veiw right on the river 40m above it have you ever caught a bully up around savages crossing or twin bridges 🙂
@@karleels076 never caught a bully, too young to understand anything at the time, i use to live on woogaroo street but now they took down the house for land, notorious for flooding, i hope you are well
My mate kicked my football into the Derwent river Tasmania. I immediately chased it down river in the strong current. Many having a Sunday afternoon BBQ on the banks couldn’t believe I got my footy back. I was informed by all my big sharks in the water and nobody goes swimming in the Derwent.
@striker1938 yeah swin anywere near old meat processing places.. like the old whaling station albany obviously they don't do whaling anymore but I still wouldn't swim there.. use to be feeding frenzy and big whites caught there frequently
As a kid my mates and I regularly swam and jumped off the foot bridge just near rivermount college. Always heard stories of them in there, it wasnt really common knowledge back then. Thought it was the oldies spoiling our fun. We stopped when we saw one for ourselves. 😬
In hawaii when fishing i use some sort of wire that matches the level of my tackle because there are a bunch of 2 foot hammerheads inshore that will always get hooked up. off shore there are huge sharks that might snag your line, but out of all the sharks i've caught, the wire has saved me so much tackle
I love how you keep your cool for the camera! 😅 Fuck them bullies though, used to swim in Noosa river all my life until one by one the big finned friends started being pulled out of the water. Think I’ll keep my feet in the boat with a cold beer in my hand😂 🍻
It takes a lot of composure at times 😉🤣 I used to swim the mooloolah river canals as a kid myself, definitely wouldn’t these days. Just get complacent sometimes hey
My mate kicked my football into the Derwent river Tasmania. I immediately chased it down river in the strong current. Many having a Sunday afternoon BBQ on the banks couldn’t believe I got my footy back. I was informed by all many big sharks in the water and nobody goes in😂
Caught my biggest just in front of that little inlet you got the bait from, just on dawn. That was about 22-23 years ago. Wire was always a must. Was funny we made it back to the boat ramp as a few skiers were getting ready to go out. Could here them laughing and putting shit on us for fishing there. They stopped pretty quick when we pulled out 4 sharks between 3-5 feet long. Then we made sure they seen us laughing at them when they packed up and left without putting the boat in. 😂😂😂
I learnt to swim in that river when I was 3 or 4 years old, mum shouted the lady that taught me a few fruity lexias and I had freestyle down pat within an arvo 👌🏽😂
Bit further up north, camping up at Inskip point as the barge was coming into Inskip from Fraser a 3 ft bully jumped over the nose of my kayak. Still have that vision of that shark broadside me whilst in the air. Bloody bull shark broke my Butterworth rod.
No wonder people no longer swim in our river, as they did many decades ago...I'm not a fan of catch and release for *dangerous* sharks, but to each their own. Cheers
My Aunt and Uncle live in Karalee and as kids we would swim in the Brisbane river there all the time. My Aunt always told us not to because of the sharks but we didn't believe her. I'm older and wiser now and count my lucky stars nothing happened to us
Yes the horse trainer who was letting his horse swim got a fright when the horse started to panic and he found a big bite on the horse, this was up beyond a dam where bulls can't swim to so they must have been living up there before the dam was built
I used to float down noosa river on the high tide coming in, then one day close to the shore there was a school of prawns getting carved up by a pack of 3-4 foot bull sharks and that was enough for me 😂
Thanks for the good video mate it's the first time I've seen you but I'll definitely subscribe you gave me a laugh early in the morning and I find myself going through the same process on the island here I'm not a nearly as set up as you are but thanks to stuff like this..😊I'm learning
Depends on the size of the bait normally. If it’s a big mullet I’ll rig it through the nose, but normally go through just behind the stomach to allow the bait to swim a bit more freely.
Just goes to show you how many large female bull sharks are puping in the river Delta's on east coast Australia, I got ramed by a 10foot bull shark while spear fishing in the nambucca river had my bag of fish tied to my hip and was coming up for a breath and all of a sudden I got ramed in the back of my legs as I hit the surface, My legs got pushed forwards i looked down an was like fuck An seen the bastard swimming back down deep I got straight out of the water It was bloody full grown bull shark dont like spear fishing in the nambucca river any more You should keep some of the small Bully's for flake good eating bro
That’s what scares me the most about ever attempting spear fishing in the first place 😅 Beautiful area along that whole stretch of coastline, I’d love to venture down that way for a fish.
@@BrisVegasFishing next time you go shark fishing wrap a little copper wire around the hook. The salt water with different metals making contact produces an electrical field. Sharks can detect it quite well and will hit harder and more often. I’ve caught some around 3 meters long using that method. Where I grew up we get some pretty big ones. Last month they caught and tagged a great white 4.27 meters and weighed 1270 kilos.
Well I just went through the Suntag website and signed up, it’s just basically a yearly subscription. You get a little kit that comes with the tagging gun and everything. Anytime you run out of tags you send em an email and they’ll send ya fresh tags no cost. But I like it, it’s cool ya get to see some pretty cool recaptures of your own fish. The thready I tagged in this video actually got caught a few months later.
How do I get a tag gun I have been wanting to do it for a while I am a keen fisherman and have my marine studies certificate as well. Any suggestions? Also love the Brissy river for fishing
Just jump over to the suntan website mate and sign up to their tagging program. It’s a yearly subscription, you get a tagging kit and every time you run out of tags just email them for more. 👌
I was quite surprised to see the tag gun you guys need to learn how to de air fish if you are catching and releasing essential when pulling them to the surface quickly
If I went through the second loop then that makes it a locked blood knot, when you don’t go through the second loop it’s just a regular blood knot (half blood knot)
Would I swim in any salt water or river connected to the ocean here in SEQ, not a chance. Canals and such are riddled with bulls. I know one family whose kids were swimming not far from bull sharks without even knowing when earlier that day a dog was chased out of the water by a shark. Also know someone who used to go to magic millions years ago and they said you would see the sharks in the water
i laugh and shake my head at anyone swimming in the Bribie passage system. Coochin campsite/boat ramp is rife with them if you can stand the aircraft size mozzies.
Guess what, if the water is the ocean or connected to the ocean there are sharks. So if you are scared of them don’t go in the ocean or rivers and lakes connected to it.
Would you swim here? No mate I wouldn't swim anywhere in AU unless it was a swimming pool and even then there's people who have woken up to find a Croc in their swimming pools.

And these are just some of the ones I can remember I am sure it goes way higher when this list would cover as far a field as Tics also. I mean you can't go about life worrying what might be under each stone you encounter but still the fact remains you need to be extra careful in certain places opposed to others.
Gators? I don't think so. The others, yes.

Caught a small bull shark in the Logan River in the early 80 s would never swim in any river in Brisbane
Are you hooking your live bait through the back or through the stomach?,it looked like stomach.
Depends on the size of the bait normally. If it’s a big mullet I’ll rig it through the nose, but normally go through just behind the stomach to allow the bait to swim a bit more freely.
I had to swim the brissy river from Bulimba to New Farm at 1am in the morning.
But I used to swim in it regularly.
Surprised I survived
Pine river full of bull sharks as well !
Cycle hook n steel trace, I've been shark fishing for years n if u want a hook up then it the only set-up to use
Just goes to show you how many large female bull sharks are puping in the river Delta's on east coast Australia,
I got ramed by a 10foot bull shark while spear fishing in the nambucca river had my bag of fish tied to my hip and was coming up for a breath and all of a sudden I got ramed in the back of my legs as I hit the surface,
My legs got pushed forwards i looked down an was like fuck
An seen the bastard swimming back down deep I got straight out of the water
It was bloody full grown bull shark dont like spear fishing in the nambucca river any more
You should keep some of the small Bully's for flake good eating bro
Holy shit mate glad you survived to recount the tale. That would scare me off most rivers for good as far as swimming goes. Beautiful area Nambucca.
That’s what scares me the most about ever attempting spear fishing in the first place 😅
Beautiful area along that whole stretch of coastline, I’d love to venture down that way for a fish.
Mate swim in that river near every second day, someone always drops something over the side of the barge. Just DONT swim up river of QUT.
Great vid, slowly going mad 😂😂
Haha thanks 😂✌🏼
Is that a threadfin that you tagged? I’m unfamiliar with species in Australia.
We call them threadfin salmon or king salmon over here. They are a very bizarre looking fish but great sport and pull some drag.

The Nerang and Brisbane rivers are well known as Bull Shark Breeding Grounds!!!
You want king? You want to use a 4/0 long shank, no idea why but thats the best hook for them.
Those Bull sharks adapt to freshwater.
Swam it a few times saving on taxis 😂😂
We’re all still alive.
Sydney harbour and tributaries are the same....upper harbour is the breeding ground...not as common as years ago...but I've seen them...
They’ve got a bite about the size of a staffy at that long
😂 love it. You’re so right
yeah il swim across the Brisbane river,, considering iv swam across the south Johnston n yarra rivers
Probably more likely to die from pollution to be honest 😂

If I went through the second loop then that makes it a locked blood knot, when you don’t go through the second loop it’s just a regular blood knot (half blood knot)
Hay bro where exactly is that?
Riverhills
Was this around goodna boat ramp?
Yes mate, not too far from there. But any stretch of the river is great this time of year for sharks
perfect cure for insomnia
LMFAO bloody Queenslanders
What pound leader mate
When I was using mono filament it 70lb Schneider was the best, my wire trace was only a 20lb nylon coated steel trace.
Would I swim in any salt water or river connected to the ocean here in SEQ, not a chance. Canals and such are riddled with bulls. I know one family whose kids were swimming not far from bull sharks without even knowing when earlier that day a dog was chased out of the water by a shark. Also know someone who used to go to magic millions years ago and they said you would see the sharks in the water
You ripped the mess his mouth up
Why do u throw them back. Wouldn't they be a pest like carp?
Try using the right hook and correct gear
I feel like there’s more than one occasion in this vid where I mention using the right gear. 🤔 but thank you for pointing that out anyway👌
17 minutes in and I can't take the watery voice any longer,bye😂.
They're just babies, it's mumma you've got to worry about.
lol even as pups they are scary.
They’re lil savages 😂
I have been for work for the past 6 years
i laugh and shake my head at anyone swimming in the Bribie passage system. Coochin campsite/boat ramp is rife with them if you can stand the aircraft size mozzies.
Where is that at
Wstched a 4 meter bully be caught at the Moggill rd Ferry platform
I wouldnt swim anywhere in Oz not even a swimming pool
What about double wire trace and quad snerlled full circle 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 just start using square hooks instead 😂
@@BrisVegasFishing nah thats just cheating now 🤫😂
Guess what, if the water is the ocean or connected to the ocean there are sharks. So if you are scared of them don’t go in the ocean or rivers and lakes connected to it.
Not using wire trace means your just gonna waste time
Use proper traces mate
Use a Circle Hook
LOL
you should of used a wire trace becuase sharks have teeth that will cut you off
