Moreton Bay reef fish were ON FIRE

- Well this could have a silly good day if the deepwater fish stuck but you got to be happy with a fish a cast for almost an hour on the reef edge!!
I started the day hooking plenty of jew very quickly but luck wasn't on my side and lost all of them, the last being a shark so I moved away.
Next stop was a pearla and I had one of my best ever reef edge sessions of my life! Pretty much a fish a cast for an hour with my trusty 3.5" Biwaa curly tail to start. Eventually I had to pull out the fly rod as the fishing that good! It's not for everyone but fly is by far my favourite way to catch pretty much everything but especially reefs of the edge!
Last stop of the day was a drive to Harries for a big snapper and again, I got the bite but pulled the hook during the fight. Another disappointment
as this day could have been epic but I drove back to the ramp in glamour conditions, so I left a happy fisherman.
Great spot.
Halfway between the red beacon you were near and the cardinal marker to the NE, about 50 meters to the west is a prominent ledge. Fishes well for larger snaps both incoming and outgoing.
Great session to end the year Peter, have learnt so much from your lure fishing technique this year. Looking forward to future sessions, happy new year.
Was a tonne of fun this session!
Glad you like and have learned from my videos mate.
Top stuff from the master again I am learning but still a long way off thanks Pete
Cheers Geoffrey !!
That’s the go mate.
Unsurprisingly another epic video! Tight lines as always 🎣.
Cheers mate!
Thanks for the support
Thanks for your vids mate, I've learnt a ton from them. I was hollering out to you the other day near the front of the river asking if you're filming today 😂.
Cheers mate!
Arh yes, tough day that one!!
Another great video mate. Thanks for all the great work you do putting these up for us,you’ve really inspired me to up my fishing game. Happy new year and all the best
Cheers Robbie!
Really appreciate the support mate.
Happy new year to you to.
Don’t listen to fly rod haters. I dusted mine off for the first time in about 10 years, so much fun. I remember saltwater fly got big in the 90s, but i think the evolution of realistic soft plastics kind of edged it out a bit.
That’s it mate.
We got in to it back then too.
I remember casting in the paddock after school, then buying a combo when I left school. Got some bass, tailor and even hooked a longtail, then discovered plastics and the end of that 🤣.
Hi Peter, I must say I'm really loving these videos, as a Redlands local its so good to have someone producing such quality videos from the local SEQ waterways. It really is inspiring to see what is available in Moreton Bay and surrounds. I'm new to the world of soft plastics and can't wait to get amongst it as I'm currently in a forced land based position atm (outboard died). I'm about to have a week at Amity on a great waterfront property with a small jetty on the rock wall, I would love some direction as to a combo to fish this with some plastics. I have stayed here several times and only ever bait fished, so I'm really excited about fishing with some plastics from here but fear my current only plastic combo ( small Shimano 2500 and a 6-12 pound rod) won't cut it. Love to hear your thoughts on what you think would work here, line class, leader etc. Hopefully this weather improves soon. Keep up the awesome work mate. Cheers Kim.
Thanks so much for the kind words Kim!
I’d say to go see your local tackle store (Scott at bayside) for tackle advice as well. I’d start like with soft plastics as that is how I and many others started out.
Light graphite rod, small spin reel, 6-10lb braid and 6-10lb leader and species like bream and flathead. That’s how I started and progressed from there. There is so much skill to be learned from species like bream imo.
Let me know how you go with the soft plastic journey mate!
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing Thanks for taking the time Peter, I'll certainly take your advice and head to Bayside and have a chat with the boys there. Cheers and all the best!
Get your hands on some of Alex Roy’s ‘bay shrimp’ man! They’d slay out there
Might have to.
Nice vid mate,can’t wait to so more
Thanks mate!
Awsome video mate
Love epic fly reef edge fishing!!
Yeah nice one, have a good New Years mate.
Cheers mate!
You too!!
Did you catch everything
Hey peter as always awesome vids that island you did the shallow reef fishing which one is that? Only new to reef fishing but looks like fun have a safe new year's always learning from you the reel Jewy slayer 🎣🎣🤙
Cheers mate. Pretty much any island (except st Helena) has this kind of fishing on offer hey. Bait, current and drop offs are what to look for.
That was the red thing is it a red 2 person kayak or not
Hey mate - was curious what reel you were using before you brought out the fly rod. Also where was that spot with those small islands in the background.
Original Daiwa exist 300 mate.
Hey mate great vid as always but out of curiosity what is the reel you were using when you were catching sweet lips? Any ways have a great new year🎉
Thanks Oscar!
Original Daiwa exist 3000, an oldie but a goodie.
Thanks mate
Great vid yet again. Was this before the chrissy storms?
Thanks mate!
Yeah, week on Xmas.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing I went far southern bay Friday it was terrible.
@@epic_tangles I went Thursday and did really well. Mate went Friday’s too and same fish wouldn’t bite 🤷♂️.
I took family for a swim Friday, ramps were hectic!!
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing yes ramps we're insane and so was the heat! Water was very dirty around macleay
@@epic_tangles was nice in the water 😀.
hey Peter what are you doing for work to afford such a nice boat ;)
Only fans mate!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
do you ever fish the logan ?
Great video, you make it look easy! Does it burn your hand when you pull the fly line through when reeling in?
Thanks Lisa!
When a fish runs and I’ve got the hand in my hand it can do. Didn’t happen this time but has happened a bit for me 🤣.
Did you see a red kayak at harry atkinson reef
Think so
Hi Peter , what’s the best 9 inch sounder to buy ?
Hey James!
Inshore/offshore, stand alone, gps/sounder/engine data etc etc.
kinda depends on your use of the sounder tbh. If you want the best side scan or use for a bit of everything.
No grinner 😂😮
I did get pike 🤣🤣
cant complain with 45kmh for 3km/l
Pretty bloody good hey!
3lt 150hp merc is a good thing on the back of the Attack.
What’s the island in the back at the second spot?
