My back was aching just watching that. I use my poly pipe to cover a sting rays tail when im getting my hooks out. And when relaunching them in shallow water
Another great video. Those squidgies are good. i prefer the berkley nemesis (not the gulp! rhe gulp are rubbish, too soft and go hard in the pack) though.. both very similar shape n action. i found the flavour they use in the squidgies is not always preferable. sting ray makes for good video but might be better just to cut it off than bust yourself for 15minutes. Amazingly your method paid off and kept the bait and hook! congrats.
I normally don’t fish with BIG chunks because the same reason, it’s a good chance that one big monster will visit and the fight takes too long, and I don’t use stainless steel hooks in case of line breaks the hook will rust eventually and fall off “I hope “😂😂 great video as always, thank you for the adventure 🙏🏻
I use 20 pound nylon leaders too. Paternoster or a few feet before my wore rig when using braid. I only use nylon rigs and leaders when fishing in a rocky area too..
HI Roger..I'm always forgetting to suggest how to get rod stand deeper with even less force or energy...once you push rod stand initially into ground and wer it stops..remove the rod stand shake of the sand with pipe then reinsert. And see how easy peasy😂😂😂🎉😅😅😅😅
Hi Roger great clip. I've always found if you flick the line like a guitar string and she starts moving again. Sure as egg's she's a sting ray or a Manta Ray
Hi Roger, How are you? Can you tell me please. How long the leader you made it between the hook and the swivel? And if I have 10 kg line so the leader should be the same size or lower?
I watched that Tailor head being used as bait and immediately thought that it's a 99% chance of hooking a Ray. Where I live, I no longer try and fish for Mulloway. Just too many Rays. We have a species of Black Skate (totally protected as they're too easy to hook) that have a disk about 5 or 6 feet wide. Must be way over 100 KG's. Plus numerous shovel nose sharks and banjo sharks. Our bread and butter species in the South of Western Australia are Herring (Tommy Rough), whiting, Skippy (silver trevally) and maybe bream (often Silver variety). No chance of stopping even a smaller eagle ray with gear for those fish. Then again I had a look at a Taipan rod today and found another Shimano surf rod, a Speedmaster: 13 foot and pretty heavy action for lines over 15 kg. So I haven't given up on big baits completely.
Hey Rodger! Just a tip to make your catch better quality to eat and more humane for the fish is to brain spike the salmon first before cutting the throat. It's also called Iki Jime spiking the fish. Great video mate
Hi Roger, your super videos are awakening my sleeping passion for fishing! For those outside AUS or US like me would you tell the size of wires also in millimeters? Tks!
Roger this is the problem with using stainless steel hooks. They don’t rust unlike non stainless steel hooks which eventually break free from the fish. On this occasion you were lucky in that the Ray spat the hook out but you can imagine if it wasn’t able to then it would have been stuck with the Ray for quite some time.
Hi Rog, I reckon you had a big sting ray. I caught 2 big salmon today in Port Hacking. Bled them right away (slashing its gills, is that the right way?) and pan fried fillets today (dark red meat cut off). Wasn't that good to be honest.
You gotta cut the throat and pull the head right back, you can also massage the blood out from its body and squirts out the throat a bit, put them head down in sand too if you want
Awesome vid rog we neeed more like that although I would recommend using slightly heavier gear when using bats that big upgrade to a 14-20000 and at least 60 pound but really enjoyed it
I once hooked on to a large sting ray and eventually landed it. But then what do you do Sadly I just left it on the beach as I did not know what to do with it. Yes, it is stressful, it really spoiled my day.
That was crazy whatever that something big was!! How was your bait hanging mid air? Were you on another line or something? Pretty good and interesting session to watch 👍🏼 looking forward to seeing another session 😊
Not too keen on your use of stainless steel hooks. From way back, I was taught that fish have a fantastic capability of divesting themselves of fishooks - unless those hooks are made from stainless steel. Seems their systems can't dissolve stainless so if they escape with a hook made from that then things are not looking at all good for them.
Dear Sir , can i have some question please , 1- which rod the best for tailor fishing on the beach 1- 7-12 ki 320cm length or 360cm .2- 10-15ki 320cm or 360cm length . and the braid 40lb + leader 40lb is it ok , please let me know .thank you for your kind Sir.

My grandfather always told me a big hook catches big fish, but a small hook catches any fish. Sadly departed but wise words I think
My grandfather used to say the same line,,,,,,are WE brothers
Clicking fast once i get notification. Another great video. 22:02 hahahha Thanks Roger

Another satisfying video, worth to watch 🙂
Congrats on the 100k Subs, keep them coming mate
big stingray or eagle ray, they always tend to lay flat after a big run and dig themselves into the sand.

If you twang the line with your fingers it can turn the ray help you get it off the bottom
Awesome content, Soft plastics seems like a fun and reliable way to catch 👍🤙👍🤙
You are fishing on such a beautiful beach! So privileged!
Yes, thanks
its a shovel nose shark big one explains the good run and then burying into the sand
Ohhhhh what a fight! Thanks for the awesome info once again 🙏🏼
Hi Roger, love your videos. L'm in WA, but just interested in the beach that you mainly fish from over there. Cheers Andy.
Congrats on 50000 subscribers🎉😊
Love your vids mate they really help my fishing
good work man

Orange plastics way to go Roger👉🤟🤘
Great video Roger. Would have been interesting to see what you had on that big head.
Hi Roger great clip. I've always found if you flick the line like a guitar string and she starts moving again. Sure as egg's she's a sting ray or a Manta Ray
Hi Roger,
How are you?
Can you tell me please.
How long the leader you made it between the hook and the swivel?
And if I have 10 kg line so the leader should be the same size or lower?
Great video Roger, as a very average fisherman I can live through your adventures 😅
A rod waist bucket is a wise tool to have in fighting big fish. Great fight!
Yes I agree
I’m craving some flathead and whiting 😂
Congradulations on 50k subs mate 👍 you deserve it
Thanks mate
what reel is that on the heavy rod mate@@RogerOsborneFishing
Definitely a stingray - one of the big black ones. Hard to dodge down there when chasing the mighty Jew.

Roger if you’re ever south of the border down Melbourne way would love to go out for a fish you. Love the videos.

So exciting, I had to put it on pause to get my breath back. Was your stomach bruised from holding the rod?😅😅
It was hurting from the pressure. Those sorts of fights are tiring
Hi Rodger
Where is this location..?
Thanks
waiting for the hook in the hand slip.....
FYI... for jigheads it's best to tie a loop knot to give your plastics a better action.. just might improve your strike rate.. 🙂👍

Hi Kellie, the Tailor head slipped over the eye of the hook and quite a long way up the line. That often happens when you are using live bait.
@@RogerOsborneFishing ohhhh. I thought that was the case, must have been the angle that made it look like you had hooked onto another line
Awesome videos and lots of learning
What size of fishing reel are you using in the little rod ?
It’s a Stradic, Vanford ?
It's a Stradic 3000
@@RogerOsborneFishing thanks :)
I likely would have cried had I fought a fish for that long just to lose it
i would have busted it off in 30 seconds if I could. Bloody plague of the things.
What are you targeting with the big bait? What type of fish would you catch in that area with a bait like that?
Hey Roj how about a THAI FISH CAKES vid. In the kitchen.
I did that recently. It's on my channel
@@RogerOsborneFishing thanks ill look it up. I'm
at sth durras, like to your area. Can't find beach worms here.
How do you cope with that cold Sydney area sea water? I would need waders!
hi roger , what do you do about new soft plastic that have the new chemical smell ? or are cheap plastics no good because of this reason ?
Another great video Roger, what species were you hoping to catch with that monster bait?
Hopefully a big Mulloway - they love Tailor
i find playing the line like a guitar helps moving the sting rays
Interesting!
@@RogerOsborneFishing IN saying that im using braid with a mono trace
Is that spot you are fishing near Lake Tabourie?
Are you in Victoria
Where are you based mate? It looks familiar. It reminds me of NSW South Coast.
Hi Rob, Ulladulla Area
Looking for a fairly light beach setup for salmon. What size reel do you recommend?
Depending on what brand probably a size 6000 with 20lb mono
What is this reel he hooked up with?
I think you hooked a 3 meter flathead with that tailor head
Could have been a record !! 😊
Where is that place?
Wherebis this located?
Ah bugger think we all wanted to see the ray
stingray....
Dont know how you can still stand up hahaha
Stingray

Thanks Ian, most of my hooks are not stainless steel. I don't use SS often.
Zman soft plastics.
Chasing views with a Sting ray hook up annoyed me
I was making the video regardless, just a bit of extra excitement.
@@RogerOsborneFishing I think you've missed my point mate 😄
That was truly pathetic, a so called fisherman who can’t land a big fish
