Nice work mate, sight casting them as they move across the sand between the pontoons can also be heaps of fun on the soft prawns.
I’ll have to give that a bit of a go Mick ;)
Hey MMD just bought some of your hard body lures base on Johns vids, via BCF, and have to say best quality made lures ive seen in a LONG time..and with quality trebles. Well done.
@@mylurebox q qqqq a c
That's a massive upgrade from a sienna combo
I can’t believe it mate. Best rod ive ever even tried an the comparison is nuts. Could have been a very expensive move now I’ve experienced that level of rod.
@@mylurebox I think your input is amazing, your style of fishing needs the best equipment, its only going to elevate the catch rate, very impressive keep them videos just the way they are that's why I tune in.👌
Hay jony I was talking to a guy in Noosa he said that he knows you because he was going to build you some rods he also said that he loves to take people out.the mans name was dean and he said that you would love to take people fishing. My name is perry and I am A keen as fisherman and I have been a subscriber to your channel since you started
have been using these for about 2 weeks now and really all the fish ima getting are over that 25 mark, new fav lure!
Awesome vid John. Just got a few Soft Prawns and can't wait to get in amongst it.
Cheers Bill. They’re an impressive little morsel :)
Love to see more live baiting from the ski mate!
It’s coming mate. Frothing for some time out there now
Great theme to this vid. Top work 👍🏻
Cheers mate. Stoked you enjoyed it
You always make it look so easy. Great video.
Cheers Rob. There’s plenty of edits mate :) Hahaa. These lures with light approaches are something pretty special though mate. I’ve done a tonne of reviews and these would be up there for converting.
@@mylurebox I will have to put a order in and give them a go. 👍
Awesome topic for a vid mate.
Lovely neighborhood 👍🏻
Awesome pointers mate, cheers
Cheers Brad. You been having a go at all of late?
Good bit of fun.
The vanford’s are really nice John if ya getting something fancier.
Thanks Danny, I’m so keen to get my hands on a few of these better rods and reels and get a feel for em.
@@mylurebox only fair. I love my new curado an 3-6kg raider. Can’t put in down is so fun to use.
Looks like such a good finesse rod
It’s the business mate. Nice to use. So feely.
Like bait fishing but with a lure great video mate keep up your awesome work
Exactly mate. And moreso with the scent too I spose.
Hey mate awesome new video in the canals
Cheers mate. I’ll have to do a bit more of that stuff
Took my new girlfriend out for a flathead session gave her one of my Diawa double clutches first throw 88cm flathead then 5 mins later got an 80cm flathead she’s not coming again 😝
people look at me funny when I tell them of sessions catching multiple flathead over 80cm but it does happen...quiet often...my best session I got 4 over 80cm 2 of which were over 90!!...she has the mojo thats a brilliant start to the career!
Yeah I know couldn’t catch a small one today post flood action
@@mossyfishing9345 whenever I go back to the spot I got those 4 crocs I have highest hopes but 2 years on and never again lol those sessions can do ya head in!!
Mate I’m having the same experience. Hahaa. So punishing to return time and again for no love when it came so easy and was so convincing....
@@matthewmorshead2594 awesome... they always surprise and often disappoint I thought I had em figured out so many times but some days they will make you work hard this season for me I've spooked way more big fish than hooked... been a cursed season for me starting to wonder if I've caught em before!!... 5 fish in 2 hours is good fishing...some sessions are just so easy they leave you thinking your the gun then you go back and get nothing for weeks!!...I fish 5 different systems each with a heap of spots that produce crocs I can't stand still lol moving around covering massive flats and edges works for me but you gotta manage the spots ....I've never tried night sessions I hear they bite well in the dark... don't do the boat on the flats anymore just can't cover the ground needed to catch em always spooking fish or not covering every last inch...wading is definatly the best way to consistently catch big flathead in the shallows...where are you based?....
You should go fish bust ups on that setup and see if how long it takes to land a trev
Hahahaa. Full line screaming stuff. Love it
Thanks for the tip on how to fish these. I’ve gotten 4 packs of them so far and caught nothing. Hopefully you’ve put me onto some fish from this information! I’m going to go test them on sooty grunter too.
That life jacket rated for knee deep water?? hahahah jokes mate . Rad Video
Hahaaa. Tickin boxes apparently.
🤙🏽. Belated
Great vid mate 👍🏻👍🏻🎣
Cheers mate :) 🎣
Great content mate.
Cheers mate. Couldn’t raise a big flatty so went into the canals to convert. Haha
Deadly video uncle 🤙🏽
Cheers mate
Just watching this again and noticed a couple of soft glides on the deck. Almost time to get them back out.
Those little sienna reels are a seriously tough little reels. toughest reel for their price without a doubt.
Mate they do the trick for me esp. with little kids in the boat...
I have a sienna combo and i don't want to buy a new rod I live near a canal and go fishing there all the time. I dont catch much stuff though. Hopefully with these tactics I can land some fish
Good luck bro. Those siennas are great !
I love mine and our whole family used em around the country. Including some big Barra up north. They can do everything
Volume level is super low old mate, had to crank the TV to hear you...then the ads blew my windows out.
Need a mic on your body maybe. All in all another great video, thanks.
Thanks mate. I really do appreciate this feedback because I edit and check it on my computer and often with earphones. I’ll try and work it out and look at those mics in time.
@@mylurebox - it was better at the end of this video, its often when you have it on the camera mount and you're facing away on your casting deck.
Plus I think you deadset love whispering to not scare the fish :-)
Spot on mate. Holding my $#.. together when I’m getting hit or scoping a good spot makes it impossible. Hahaha
When are you coming to Burnett Heads Bundaberg I would love to go out fishing with you
sometimes you just want to catch some fish, no matter the size/type they are
So true mate. Fully enjoy it when it’s sight casting eh
Great Vid, Do mind if I ask where you go the neck mount for your gopro? Looks easier than a chest mount.
Mate they’re an improvement I reckon. I find the footage better myself. Pretty sure I got it off eBay or AliExpress.
Great video . what reel and size are you using please with that rod ?
Hi john .... juat wondering what brand / type of fluro carbon you are running for fc straight through ? Is FC straight through rather than braid with fc leader ok for land based ? Or will braid get you more distance.
invest in a wet rag bud when you handle fish all day a wet rag is good for both the fish and you....also barbed hooks still catch fish.
Thanks mate. Definitely gotta take those 2 pieces of helpful advice on board. The more I do with those lures the more I agree.
@@mylurebox yeah mate when you bang em all day these two things are important...barbing hooks really helps the fish IMO and maybe you if you get stung lol...have been barbing for a long time and don't see it as an issue...the wet rag just makes everything easier when de hooking and holding.
Thanks mate. As always, I appreciate your continued interest in my channel and, much moreso, your advice and ideas you share with me. It’s gold ;)
Nice little session there John. Did you say that’s a new Rod? Who was the maker? It looked very light and fine.
Also with the variety of fishing you do how many rods and reel set ups do you have? I am told by my mates I have too many 😂😂
It’s in the description mate
Mate I’ve got too many but the kids are slowly cracking and snapping their way through em so this one is something special. Murisame make it. Bream X 772uls.
@@mylurebox you can’t have too many. If some one tells you that I don’t think they understand plus you don’t need that negativity in your life 😉😉 I joke. Always thought about getting a super light set up but worried about spending the money only for it to snap.
Keep up the vids mate they are still a favourite
Hahahaa. Cheers Paul. Stoked to hear you’re enjoying em mate. ;)
Did you get the new Minn Kota board John? Was it a remote board you were after? My Minn Kota’s being a little temperamental too.
Not yet mate. I’ve got 2 remotes and they’re both playing up so I’m guessing it’s the motor board.
Tight lines!!
Where is the water way on the Gold Coast ?
Minn kota are always cooked
Love the channel, what weight mmd prawn do you use, and how much flurocarbon do you spool on your reel for that type of fishing. Ch9
Cheers Brett. It’s the 2.1 gram model. And the Fluoro has just been spooled with enough for a cast and a half. Maybe 50m just to get the lure out there. I run cheap backing to fill the spool underneath if needbe
i think it's time to upgrade the mini kota to a foot control model too much stuffing around with that remote looks annoying
Where do you get your soft prawns from
is that a 7ft model?
Hey John what model rod is that brother
Also have you ever used the zipbaits zoea 49s any chance oneday if ya bored doing a how to use on these lures
Just a request John thats all 😁
Gday Michael. I haven’t used em mate. I’ll have to get my hands on some and try em out ;) thanks 🙏
The rod is an Bream X 772uls by Murisame
I’ve never really heard many others talk about these but how cool are they! Everything eats them!
Names/manufacturer or the soft prawn you are using, or a link? Looks like a fun day, no monsters but always good to not fish in the boat.
MMD lures mate
@@mathewcoats2303 thanks mate.
www.mmdfishing.com.au
I have lost confidence in the MMD soft prawn, perhaps its because of my choice of 6lb leader to braid. I have tried a number of brands for straight fluorocarbon and most coil up or get bad wind knots. What brand do you recommend?
Mate what color and weight prawns were you throwing. I remember your comments from my earlier vids and found them really interesting because we’ve had such different experiences and it surprised the hell outa me, esp. as I know you watch so many of my videos to go with it. What region down south are you fishing? Are you around canals and boats with Bream?
I use Vanish by Berkley. It can do exactly what you’ve mentioned. I tend to just replace my 4 or 20lb for Jack when it gets bad. I only spool 50m onto some backing so I’ve got a few goes at it for each spool.
@@mylurebox I am around the Shoalhaven near Nowra. Very few boats or canals. All natural structure. Rocky bars, flats and timber in creeks. I have vanish 4lb, I will try just 50 to 100 metres and see. I have the medium and heavy MMD prawns. I have the holt production prawn and again no interest in that. You would hate fishing down here its not like in canals where you have lots of small bream, most sessions for me its one or 2 fish good quality or nothing.
@@mylurebox Success this morning using 4lb Berkeley Vanish managing a 40cm flathead. Still no sign of bream. I made a rookie error by not having my S Factor with me. I tried your technique very slow to dead still then a small twitch or lift.
What type of GoPro are U using?
GoPro 7Black ;)
@@mylureboxnice bro is that standard or ultrasmooth?
Hi what fluro do you use when spooled as mainline?
Berkley Vanish is soft enough for casting
Great work mate glad to see the rod doing well for you anyone need any info on the Murasame Bream X you can hit us up at 2 Mates Fishin on Facebook or Viva fishing on Facebook cheers. Caine
Cheers Caine. Full game changer for my bream fishing mate.
Hi mate.. Thanks John.. Great vid and very helpful.. I have the 7'6 model and agree it's a great rod for the really light stuff but I can't get a really long cast with smaller lures.. Maybe putting in too much grunt and not letting the rod do the work.. Is it more the flick of the rod? Might be more practice.. I was using 4lb straight through too. Steve
Steve yeh really need to let the rod do more work for you and sometimes can come to many factors for loosing distance finger control too early too late release you'll feel when that top section loads up and and wants to send it. It will take some practice to get it where you want but the rod will do it all.
Smooth is the key with light plastics hardbodies not a prob should cast easy but really need to adjust cast for placcy hope that helps Steve.
If have a look at how smooth John casts towards end of video when he casts distance towards the shadow area that's what I mean by it all smooth is key. Try adjusting length from tip to lure and timing and see how you go without trying to blast it.
What type of soft prawn are you using??
These are MMD soft prawns ;)
The 2.1gram in natural colours or the bloodworm coloured ones
Has qld changed its laws on life jackets?
No mate. Still all good. ;) NSW is tight on it in a small tinny.
@@mylurebox sure are. I'm from south coast nsw. Thanks anyway johnny! 👍
what are those pliers you use! i want a set
Ryan I got em off eBay I’m pretty sure. I can’t remember what brand they are. Nothing special but they go well.
@@mylurebox legend I’ll go digging around see what I can find 👍🏼.. keep up the awsome vids
What weight are you running with the lure??
2.1 gram lure on 4lb line.
Thanks ... I was on the site the other day but wasn’t sure what weight to get so I held off .... really appreciate you getting back to me 🤙🏻
No worries mate. Happy fishing
Far too many mid roll ads make it unpleasant to watch the video.
Hi Graham. Thanks for letting me know. I let UA-cam auto set the ad breaks on this video. I’m gonna go back and manually adjust it and get rid of them through the middle.
