Get involved! How good were those fish?What colours interest you? keen to hear your comments. Competition is now closed.
ByronTeaHill any lures that will help me catch bream i still cant get em 😭😭😭
Hahahahaha! Well you can to the right channel. Just do what you see
ByronTeaHill bro i always watch your videos but the bream is more handsome 😂😂😂
Sent a screenshot of my video share to your Instagram page 👌
Keep up the info vids mate, my motto is you never stop learning and I’m 72 years young.
Sweet video Byron. All shared up.
I would go option 1, get wide range to test in different locations from the Territory right down the east coast and into SA. Growing up in the Territory in the 90's the original grubs were gnarly on the Barra and the minnows were great when they were being picky.
So good!!!
Love the videos, have helped me nail a couple on the slim swim, and would break that $400 down with your favourites for $200 and a $200 bunch of hooks and weed less gear to match, really appreciate what you do for us views with the tips and the tricks, and just the way you explain things.
Good luck everyone
Dude! Legend, thanks very much for the words mate. I really appreciate them, thought grind the youtube game! Hahahaha.
As always mate brilliant video, full of information and entertaining at the same time. A big shout-out to berleypro for getting behind you for these comps, I love my berleypro stuff. I personally couldn’t pass up the opportunity to get my hands on one of the new Daiwa Infeet rods, especially after the run down in your review a few eps ago. Daiwa really do think about all fishos when making their low to mid range products comparable to the top end of the field, to finish it off loading up on some Bait Junkies would top it off winning the comp.
Thanks mate keep up the great vids 🤙
100% keen to keep the videos coming!! I’m really glad you enjoy the BerleyPro products, the dude that makes them is super humble and hard working. I’ve got your entry in! Thanks for the words Daniel, they are appreciated!
Another quality video on what to use and how to use it great job, beginners like me learn so much from your videos. $400 to spend on a rod and reel and maybe some soft plastics if there is s any left over.
Louie Marras great choice Louie! Good luck. Thanks so much for the kind words, I appreciate it
Option 2 for me I liked your review on those new rods and some plastics would be a perfect match
Thanks Vicky! entry is in
Sorry if I've already posted here as I thought I had the other night but couldn't find it. I threw a 3in minnow up against a bridge pillar the other day and it got stuck about a foot off the water like a slinky... geez these plastics are soft, remind me of a Keitech in some ways. I'd like a new skip casting rod to chase Jacks this summer and I'd stock up on the Bait Junkies, I absolutely love the action of these lures.
Great to here CaptainBax, I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I haven’t had a lot to do with the keitech’s lots of people rave about them. I do find they do stick to the pilons!!
Wow mate, your vids have always been kick arse but now your giving away $400 worth of gear! Bloody champ! I’ve also just realised your a bloody flying instructor, respect! Anyway, if I win I’d choose the soft plastics for sure 👍 cheers, now I’ve gotta go share the vid ect I guess 👍 cheers champ
Definitely one of the new Infeet rods and some bait junkie plastics for me!!!!
Hey Darcy! Good to see you hear dude! Entry is jnb
In*
I’d love to go for option 1 and split with Daiwa and Zman lures. Can never have too many soft plastics 👍
Kensel Olandres nice Kensel. I agree!
Option 2 for sure. And awesome vid keen to see more of the bait junkies!!
Thanks for the comment Nic! Entry is in!
your videos are great mate! I'd go Option 2! I'd love a new rod!
I wouldn’t mind a new daiwa combo and probably just the rest on some bait junkie plastics , cause I’ve got tons of zmans in the shed
Unreal William!
Option one for me. Loved your cranka crab video as well. Cheers
Thanks mate, I really want to revisit that lure, feel like I covered one method to use it out of a bunch!
Option 2 for me. New infeet rod for sure.
Nice choice Sam.
Just recently came across your channel. Pretty much learnt how to fish from the internet, I appreciate your content. Would love a new rod, an upgrade from a hand-me-down, and some plastics. :)
Awesome, thank you! entry is logged!
Option 2. A new 2500 size reel and spend the rest of bait junkie to compare to the zmans that I already have in my collection
Noice!
I can’t to get back home and buy a heap of these great vid mate 👌👌👌🎣🎣🎣
Tight lines
Craig Doherty Craig, I hope they work for you like they did me, give them a go but compare products yourself. Appreciate the comments.
New to kayak fishing and new to your channel. Thanks for keep things simple for guys like me. Half & half thank you :P Option #2 with Daiwa rod and both BaitJunkie & ZMan!
would love a new rod and some new plastics to go with it so option 2 for sure. Great video man some really good information in it.
Zander, glad you enjoyed the info in the video buddy!
Best tackle review videos on UA-cam??? I think so 👏🏼👏🏼. Captivated the whole time mate, great work. Id love to know if they react to other soft placcies like the Zman's do aswell?
Mate... you’re too kind. Also, can you show me where you got that 50?
Never mwah ha ha ha 🤐
I would stock up on Bait Junkie soft plastics, they appear to take it to another level 👍
Mate give a couple packs a go! See if they work for you. I'd be interested to hear if they do!
Option 2 please 😁. Funny thing is I only found out about bait junkies yesterday,and you have done a review of them, so awesome!!!!!.
Hahahaha glad I timed that well then! Have you fished with them yet?
@@ByronTeaHill no mate, after seeing your video...I ordered 3 packs I got the. Motor oil,Macha craw,and the Mud blood 😁😁 in the 2.5inch that look similar to the slimswim.👍👍
How have they gone? Have you taken them out yet?
Super helpful video Byron. Cheers 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful mate!
Prize all in plastics as per Option 1 - great review.
Thanks Ruth appreciate the feedback as always!
Nothing but Daiwa ,Love it, need it , want it.
Awesome Bevron! hahahaha Daiwa man!
Actually l was wondering why anyone would buy these over the Zmans. Really glad that l stumbled across this channel & l was very impressed with its fair and unbiased assessment. So l liked and subscribed ..... even if there was not not the competition. But since there is - l'd choose option 2
Cheers.... now to check out some vids
I'm glad you stumbled in here also Kid! appreciate the feedback and the entry
@ByronTeaHill great job as always
Loving the bait junkies so far. The material feels so soft yet is pretty durable.
If I win I would have to take the Daiwa gear. I have already stocked up on the bait junkies.
Keep the videos coming buddy!
Thanks Kevin, glad you liked it mate! I see you have been rippin' with the bait junkies
Love your videos. Very useful info. I have plenty of zmans, so would love to try out the new bait junkies down here in Geelong!
CK Chan thanks for the words man! Entry is jn
nice video really like how you explain and show us the camparisons really well👍👍 number 2 the infeet would be sick!!!
Solid Joltick!! Thanks for the feedback buddy! Appreciate it.
A new Daiwa Infeet to throw a mix of Bait Junkies and Z Mans would make my day. As always informative and entertaining presentation :)
Thanks Michael - Entry is in, appreciate the feedback
Option 2. I'd go with an infeet rod and the rest on bait junkie lures. Got heaps of zman already.
Solid!
Great video mate been the highlight of my day. A new rod and reel and the bait junkies look sweets as aswell.
Glad you enjoyed, truely!!! Your comment has made my night!
Sick video super educational. I would take option 2 a new 7ft infeet rod. Then some bait junkies pleaseee I have been watching your vids for so long. just want to say big fan and I love every video
Callum, that comment is legendary! really appreciate the words buddy, makes things worth it hey!
Love this video as I am new to Soft Plastic Fishing this has been most informative and instructive. Thank you
Thanks Ian! Appreciate the feedback mate.
Another great video man!
I must say I've been hanging to get my hands on some bait junkie plastics going by your last video!
They look incredible and I love the way they swim!
Seeing a local lad catch the big bream at a local event back in the beginning of August. I'm so keen to get around those plastics!
Mate, some say they are tough to start, but very very rewarding once you get the hang!
Great review, definitely new daiwa rod and reel and bait junkie gear.
Thanks for the feedback mate. I’ll throw your entry in!
Option 2 for me, can get a new rod and a heap of new lures to test 👌🏽 best of everything
Smart one buddy! chat soon buddy, good luck in the comp
Option 2 please, would love some braid and leader, and maybe some plastics and double clutches 😁, Cheers Bryon
Good luck Radish, got your entry
Option 2- yet another great review man! Keep up the good work!!
Awesome feedback Kaden, thanks Mate
Ill take option two thanks mate. A new infeet would look mighty fine in the rack. 👌
Love a good rack 🤪
I would 100% do exactly what u said bro I would get a new Daiwa infeet rod then split the bait junkie and zman plastics 👍👍
Solid!
Love to try option number 2. Keep up the great videos. Bait junkies look very interesting.
Thanks mate!
Option 2 for sure! Still want a couple of those new 2020 Infeet rods to add to the rack.
Nice video again @ByronTeaHill
Thanks Wally, appreciate it mate - I'm totally hanging for that shipping container to be unpacked.
Option 2 Daiwa all the way, keen to try the new range of infeet rods
Nice Danny!
🤞🏽love your videos mate! I would use the whole lot on Daiwa and set myself up with a soft plastics rod and reel and some bait junkie plastics
Mate just seeing this new bait junkie plastics now on your channel . They look really good and something different to try . Watermelon pearl looks the goods for a good breamo plastic. Daiwa bait junkie .
Noice! I’m really enjoying using them mate. Let me know what you think when you try then
Will do soon !
loved the tip on how to make soft plastics move more rapidly in the water man! will be trying it next time I head out in the kayak. both options would be a dream but I'd love option one. from your review videos I'd be keen to see baitjunkie and zman lures become a fav in my tackle box for my adventures on the Murray River 🤙🏻
Brady Bannister do you mean when I mentioned cutting them down?? the movement is more subtle!!! As in softer movement not rapid!!! Haha 😂
Definitely could go for option 2. Maybe the new Daiwa Rebellion rods of your choice. Something to chase bigger flathead and Big bream on the flats. The rest filled out with bait junkie tackle would be absolutely mint for the fishing streams
Striking_Contact no worries!!!
Great video mate. If I was lucky enough I would take option 2, with some more bait junkies and some daiwa gear.👍
Alan Tibbit thanks for the feedback Alan! I’ve got your entry in
Great vid mate love your work. Option 2 for me please. Thanks mate.
Definitely would love option 2, so keen for an Infeet 20. Never bought anything of quality. 🤞
Keep up the great vid’s Byron.
Thanks Snorkie!
Very good review and comparison between the two lures.
Such a good review that I would split the prize 50/50 with Zman and bait junkie lures.
Thanks Brad, awesome feedback dude. Entry is in mate!
Option 2 would love a new infeet rod and some bait junkies lures to go with it thanks
Gotcha covered Glenn!
Nice video with plenty of contact 👌 I couldn't wait so after watching the video I ordered a few packs! . About the give away, I will definitely be to try the new Infeet rods! as I own a couple of the previous ones . Really want to feel the new ones
Thanks for the review. I learnt a lot. I would go with option 1 as I would love to have a wall of soft plastics to choose from before every session and I am keen to have each of the colours you recommended so I can fish a variety of conditions with confidence. Thanks!
Nice buddy!!! Thanks for the words, means a lot to me!
I reckon option 2 would be the go. Just to get a bit of everything...
Solid Rory
Great vid mate, excellent information for a noob like myself, I would if given the chance spilt the $400 into 2 on Baitjunkie plastics and Z-man plastics
Thanks Splint! Really cool to hear that feedback mate. Entry has been logged, remember the social media share gets you a couple more entries!
Great video mate. I have just started fishing and enjoy the Daiwa gear
Options 2 would be great if I’m lucky enough to win.
Cheers
Sounds great Joel!
Your a champion man love your vids always getting into details. Id use it on lures cause i dont have enough and still havnt caught anything other then afew flattys on lures after a year it gets sad hahaha
You're a champion, thanks for the follow, mate good luck!
ByronTeaHill cheers bro hopefully when your in sydney we t up a sesh
Would love a new rod and some new bait junkie plastics to try!
Awesome Michael!
Option 2 because I need a new rod and reel and some soft plastics would be nice as well!
Entry is in Louis!
Would love option 2 new infeet with some new bait junkie lures😍
Great review Byron 👌
Thanks Ryan! Hope you enjoyed it mate
Awesome video man 👍. I’d love to just spilt the $400 into 2 on Baitjunkie plastics and Z-man plastics
Nice!!!
Option 2, a new combo, not sure what kind yet
If i come out a winner id love option 1!
Nice Ali!
Option 2 - would love to try new infeet rods as well as the bait junkies 😍
Noice! Entry in
id definately go the baitjunkie as ive had a bit of experience with the zman and love them, cant wait to start comparing them to the daiwa.
You should! Keen to hear which one you prefer in the end
I’ll take option 2 thank you! Would love to try the new lures and some new gears
Philip Vele no worries mate!!
Awesome review as always mate. Would love option 2. A new daiwa infeet rod would be awesome !
Good choice! thanks Adam, got your share also on Socials
Was expecting a gulp type of smell but the smell of these lures is a whole other thing.
Bottom Feeder Fishing just gulp like in density... different smell, but dense
@@ByronTeaHill yeah density is certainly there. Get ya face in there and its full on
Great job, Byron. Looking forward to giving these a swim myself somewhere! I’d have to choose a mix of Z-man and Daiwa lures, as most of my plastics stayed behind in Tassie with James as a thank you for loaning me his boat.
You're in!
Option 2 would get a infeet rod , tierra reel 2500 and plastics would be a great set up for bream down the straights
Solid Luka!
I would love option 2 im currently looking for a new light spinning setup and this would help heaps keep up the great videos man!!
Cam Harrison thanks mate, nice of you to say. Option 2 it is!
Would have to go option 1. I would love to get my hand on a range of BaitJunkie and compare them to Zman which I have always used. Thanks for the insight!
Andrew Halton no worries Andrew, hope you enjoyed the video mate
Great video - just saw the BaitJunkie range come online at my local tackle shop and found your vid while I was researching them. I'd probably go option two I reckon. I've been eyeing off a new ultralight rod and I generally fish with Daiwa gear so I'd go the 2019 TD Zero 7"6' ultralight, however that new '20 Infeet rod looks pretty good too. I'd use any remaining dosh on soft plastics - I'd give the BaitJunkie minnows and grubs a go.
I use the 2.5" and 3" slimswimz a lot now and they're pretty good, so the BaitJunkie minnow will have to be impressive to make me want to switch. I reckon the BaitJunkie's colours might be a point in their favour
- there's some good looking darker color options in the BaitJunkie that I reckon might go great, particularly on the EPs. The scent could go either way - I'm not usually a fan of pre-scented plastics.
I've liked & subscribed, and followed on insta and all that good stuff :) I'm looking forward to going through your back catalogue of vids!
BTW - I think the link to your insta in the notes is busted :)
Solid, thanks mate! Just checked it worked. Random. Mate awesome, thanks for getting behind the channel. Be keen to hear what you think of them. Always tough moving to something else from the faithful
Love the video mate, pretty new to soft plastics fishing so I would love to split the $400 of both zman and Daiwa plastics so I can learn the subtle differences between the two and learn my craft a bit better. Cheers
Kaiden Long thanks for the words Kaiden. Entry logged! Thanks mate
Legend another unreal vid. Awesome review and I would definitely take option 2. Would love to try the infeet rods and throw around copious amounts of bait junkies 🤙🏼🤙🏼. Would love to test the bloodworm UV over the old faithful squidgy. Keep up the good work mate have to slay some Gippy bream together very soon
Appreciate the feedback as always!!! 100% let me know. Keen
Love the tech.. bait junkies look good.
Thanks Ben, mate you want an entry? Choose an option?
Great vid mate.. I grabbed a few of these the other day and had great sessions in the brown water.. Chart Back was great til I lost it.. Will have to get the other colors. Was disappointed with the new infeet 7'3.. ($189 series) Lost the tip on the second outing.. Not sure what happened.. Hit by jig.. Weakness in blank.. Diawa not happy to replace but give a new one for $99.. So disappointed as I'd been waiting for ages to be get one... Just put a new tip on... Lost some confidence in these rods..
My fav in Diawa product are the Certate reels.. I still have two 2010 models 2506 and 2004... Cheers
Hi Steve, really glad you enjoyed the video - Shame about the Chart Back! Yeah mate that is a bit of a shame - maybe hit by a jog. Lucky it was $189 though and not 3 times that price!!!! Did you take a large amount of the tip off? Sorry to hear you've lost confidence in them buddy, the ones I've tried have been bloody awesome for the price point!
@@ByronTeaHill Hey mate .. yeah I'm loving the action of the slippery infeet .. fishing shallow .. around some oyster rocks .. stuff happens Yeah I think it's just a mind thing with the rod .. it's now 7" and still catching fish but not the same tip action of course .. prob use for blades etc ... love your vids mate .. inspires !!
Option 2.
Loved the daiwa infeet review video
Good choice, thanks Josh
Great vid bro your my new Favourite UA-camr 🤟 I would love to get my hands on some daiwa gear thanks 👍
Mate that comment means a huge amount!!! Was having a flat day until I read this, legend.
ByronTeaHill 👍
Great work on the video hubby! 🎣🎣
Thanks for coming this is an automated messaged, your husband is out fishing, he loves you
I would go for the Rod and some plastics (and a sneaky pair of pink socks just like @ 14:55 in this video)
Hahahahaha, mate if you win I’ll get you a pair... also, my wife loves your comment and she feels vindication with her shopping choices.
@@ByronTeaHill the sock choice in the videos are killer just like the blue ones that match the new yak
I’d go option 1 Byron. I’d only use a few packs myself, but I know a few ‘bream’ fisho mates who I’d like to get out and fish with and share a few packs to. 👍. Love ya work
Good choice! thanks mate, see you at Bemm? When is the next round?
Hi Byron, option 2 for me for sure. I defs want that rod! Following both yourself and BerleyPro on insty 👍
Thanks Chillies! Appreciate the follow! Got your entry
Love this video i have found that those main favourites that you had are my favs too i really love the watermelon pearl especially i must try some of the other colours you mentioned tho
It's so good! Nice Simon
Great and honest review Byron! 😎👍🏻
I would go for option #2 as I'd love to compare the infeet against my 'high end' rods for comparison and we know we can never have enough rods! would definitely have some of the Baitjunkie placcies as i am very leen to give them a go after years of using Zman and a few others!
Also thank you BerleyPro for the give away, been using your products for a couple of years now 👍🏻😎
Thanks for sharing Rene! Option 2 is a good one hey. I was really surprised by those infeet hey. particularly that 6101.
@@ByronTeaHill yeah would be good to see how they perform 😎👍🏻
Yet again Byron producing the goods. Great vid mate, option 2 for me, would love to get a new infeet rod for flicking those baitjunkie plastics around some pontoons and hopefully catch some good fish. Thanks to BerleyPro for being able to put on these amazing giveaways
Dude, really nice of you to say. BerleyPro are legends for helping out hey. Good luck Man
Another great review Byron! Option 2 towards one or two of the new Infeet rods sounds sweet! Can't wait for the full Infeet range to arrive - there are some cracking rods to choose from in that lot.
Yeah mate, well worth a look. appreciate the feedback on the review mate. entry in
Mate, great video, a really well put together review. First time viewer, and I think you smashed it! For me, I'd love to "spend" the $400 on Daiwa product which my son and I will be using! Keep em coming!
Much appreciated! Thanks mate. Entry is in
If i'm lucky enough, option 2 for me please legend! Super keen to try the new infeet rods, will probably end up buying one anyway. Your review on them was great. Cheers!
You're in! Thanks for the words Leap
Great video once again Byron. I’ll go with option 2 if I’m lucky enough to win thanks. Definitely would love a new infeet and some Bait Junkie softies, mudblood uv and pearl watermelon look like my cup of tea😀
Easy Zac, you're in! Thanks for the feedback mate
Hi Byron, I'm a 70 yrs old man. After I retired ten yrs back, I had nothing to do and bore to death. Since I watch you video, I think I should try to fish. The only thing is my treasurer will no allow me to buy a boat. Then I have to fish by the bank or on surf ( not on rocks). Just wonder the plastic works or I've to use bait ? Thank you for your advice. Have nice weekend. Regards
William, I made the conversion to plastics about 6 years ago now. Haven't fished bait since.
Hi Byron, thanks for your prompt replied. I'll try to use the minnow, and I'll keep you inform. That's again and have a nice weekend.
I would probably like the rod and soft Plastics and would probably choose the bait junkies over the zmans
Jake Downey hopefully you win so you could give both a go! ZMAN is a great product mate, has been for a long time. Give both a go
Option 2, need a new infeet for my Luvias and some bait junkies to test 👌
Nice Sam!
Option 2 a daiwa Infeet rod and plastics would be awesome keep up the great work
those Infeet rods seem so popular, check out the comments!
I would love to go option 2 as I’m so hanging to try the new infeet rods would be great to win, also the daiwa bait junkies been hearing a lot of good stuff about them! Good content btw! Also Goodluck to everyone.
Thanks Petoz, appreciate your kind words mate. Logged your entry
ByronTeaHill legend
Option 2 would be amazing! The Infeet rod pair with a few bait junkie lures to give a try, always been a zman kind of guy but starting to try new soft plastics and loving it.
Some sneaky line and out some towards a reel would be mint 👌🏻

ByronTeaHill Yew!!!!
