    In this video I demonstrate my Galjoen trace and discuss the tackle that I use to target them. This exact tackle and trace can be used to scratch for other edible fish species.
    This will help you to understand what tackle to use when targeting galjoen and other edible fish species and why you should use it.

    I get this question in the comments: Why not use a running sinker trace?
    Answer:
    To me it is a definite no-go! The running sinker will only cause you to lose more fish...when that sinker is stuck even if you use a lighter sinker trace the fish won't be able to part the sinker line because the sinker line is running up your line as he swims away from you. If you sinker trace is fixed he can part it off and you are still able to get your fish out...using a fixed trace won't get you less bites at all..it works perfect!
    Hope this☝🏻 helps!

      Hi Xander. i am about to invest in a Bluefish Special, what is the maximum weight i.e. sinker and bait you will cast on the Bluefish. I was warned that 3 ounce and small bait is maximum.

    • @pierrewentzel3919
      @pierrewentzel3919 4 роки тому

      Oh yes, Xander. What distance do you get with the rod?

    • @zoolookfishing
      @zoolookfishing  4 роки тому

      Hi depends on the length...the 13ft works best with a 4 oz and the 14ft works well with a 5oz both will be able to cast 5oz with ease but for both rods a 4oz is optimal whoever said you can only throw up to a 3 oz and a small bait, well thats not true!

    • @zoolookfishing
      @zoolookfishing  4 роки тому

      On the distance i don't know man, i don't measure my cast, seeing that its a light rod, i reckon maybe 150m in fair conditions. With a bait reckon 120-130m maybe further if i clip my bait

    • @pierrewentzel3919
      @pierrewentzel3919 4 роки тому +1

      Hi Xander, thank you very much for the reply, most appreciated. 120-150m is more than sufficient as i plan to have it as a light edible rod. The reason for asking is that if I need to throw a slightly bigger cob bait with a 3-4 ounce, whether the rod can handle it? Consider the aforementioned, and possible steenies and cob, would you suggest the 14 foot? When the surfs up and plenty side current I can use my Beastmaster 7-8 ounce.
      Again, thank you for the reply, and keep sending the videos.
      Kind regards, Pierre.

      I try to explain why I use certain trace when I do a demo and not just do the demo. I want the viewers to understand why I do a trace or bait the way I do it so the can learn more, so they can actually understand how that trace works and then build knowledge from there.

    @toddmillar4041 4 роки тому +1

    Hey mate watching from over in Oz. Always like to listen to different ideas and see how it could relate to my fishing. Noticed in the few videos of yours that I've watched the length of the butt to the reel seat on your rods is very short. We have rods like that in Australia but normally only use them with Alvey ( side cast ) reels, any reason for this selection? Our beaches are normally not too reefy but I will try that sinker line straight off the swivel next time I'm fishing rocky ground
    Cheers Toddy

    • @zoolookfishing
      @zoolookfishing  4 роки тому

      Thanks man...well we have just always fished like that...its just way more comfortable to fight a fish with a shorter butt section as well as casting a bait out whilst wading neck deep...we only use longer butt sections when we are are throwing lures.

    Thanks for the awesome video Xander! I really benefited from it. Just a few questions: What is a leader used for? Why can't one just use the main line, attach it to swiwel etc? And thanks for the shorter and lighter sinker line tip, I'm from Gordon's bay, Cape town, and it's really rocky and windy here. I also appreciate all the effort you do, keep it up👍

    • @zoolookfishing
      @zoolookfishing  4 роки тому +2

      Thanks man...the leader adds protection against the rocks as it is thicker than your mainline which makes it more abrasive resistant around rocks...and using a thicker mainline will result in more drag in the water and less distance on your cast. Hope it makes sense

    Jis sorry man, hoekom gebruik jy nie n glysinker op n tweede swiwel nie? 🤔

    • @zoolookfishing
      @zoolookfishing  4 роки тому

      As jy n gly sinker aan het tussen rotse en jou sinker sit vas as jy n vis aan het kan die vis nie die sinker afbreek nie...die gly sinker maak verseker nie dat jy meer byte kry of vis vang nie dit sal net maak dat jy verseker meer vis verloor. So as ou strop fixed is en jou sinker sit vas kan die vis die ligter sinker strop afbreek en jy kan steeds jou vis uitkry.

      Omrede n 3 way swivel makliker vas sit tussen die rotse as n 2 way en dit is ook nie so sterk soos n Japan power swivel nie...die gewone 2 way swivel gaan makliker oor die rotse as n 3 way...die 3 way sit gouer vas tussen die skeurtjies in die rotse.
