    Nice going Alex. The high outflows (7000megs) plus today's rain will mean these fish will spread and last a little longer in far flung sections of the river. That's a good thing.

      I was surprised how schooled up they still were when we went. River was at 6500MLD and I thought it would spread them out a fair bit but we didn't see any more than 200m from where they drop them in

      @michaellane8374 22nd, I think it was stocked on the 18th and was running high the whole time they'd been in there

    Lucky lads. Spent a week up there last year and got donuts 😐 The river was much lower though. Haven’t been back, it’s a six hour drive for us, would be pretty crushing to go all that way and put in that many hours to get owned again lol. One day we might try again.

    • @HawkesyFishing
      @HawkesyFishing  9 місяців тому +1

      Six hours is a fair trip to chase them. If you do come down again its worth checking out some of the smaller rivers in the area too. Fish aren't as big but a lot more of them

      @@HawkesyFishing haha man, we didn’t get a look at the rubicon that trip but I’d like to have a go there, brookies have always been on my bucket list. Guess that’s a right place at the right time deal though.
      We do alright down here in Gippsland, definitely get the numbers, just not the size. Love watching your channel, you’re definitely living the dream brother

    Hey mate, cracking vid. what retrieve did you use for the plastics?

    • @HawkesyFishing
      @HawkesyFishing  10 місяців тому +1

      Most of the time I just cast them out and wind them back in with a little flick of the rod every now and then. The other technique that worked this trip was casting it put across or down current and letting the water impart the swimming action while I just held the rod

    The Goulburn is so high right now. Was there 2 days ago while I was at Taggerty trout fishing in the Acheron, rubicon, steavensons and Goulburn. Prettt good fishing though. Have any tips for UA-cam? I’ve got a channel and I want better content and more subscibers. Cheers mate

    • @HawkesyFishing
      @HawkesyFishing  10 місяців тому +1

      Yeah they've been letting a lot of water out of eildon to make sure it doesn't overflow again this year. The biggest thing with UA-cam is putting out consistent content and building an audience

    We drove 3 + hours to get there yesterday we got there at 5am all the way till 3pm not a bite or fish in seen.Found a dead one floating definitely the biggest rainbow I have seen.we fished everywhere we could at the Goulburn river. sad to say after I haven't caught a fish for years and the past 4 months of straight now with mates this is the longest we had to travel. NEVER FISHING AGAIN 😔

    • @HawkesyFishing

      I wouldn't give up on fishing so soon, there's plenty of good opportunities around Victoria and things will get a little easier as it warms up. It might be worth booking a guide or watching some more educational style videos to help increase your catch rate

    OMTrout, what monsters. Are those ex Snobs Creek Hatchery matrons really dumb (bite on anything), never caught one? God dam, I once stepped on a wombat (at night and it was sitting just inside its hole) bloody thing attacked me but I was wearing motorcycle boots and motocross pants so it just pushed it away. My buddies got a good laugh though and made fun of me that whole camping trip, calling me Art The Wombat Whisper. Do those old matrons breed in the river or are they done with all that stuff?

    • @HawkesyFishing
      @HawkesyFishing  10 місяців тому

      Hahaha never had a wombat come after me like that but I have seen them bulldoze their way through the bush when you scare them. I wouldn't say the large stocked fish are super easy to catch but they put enough of them in there you can normally find them if you go looking, biggest reason I hadn't caught a brown yet is I hadn't fished when they have stocked some before. Really not sure how they go spawning in the river, I assume they are still capable of spawning but whether or not they do is another story
