Love the new intro, great video, and I love the yabby / fishing video. you should do more of these. great idea! I hope you and your family is doing well. can't wait for the next video.
One of the more fun things to do before you fish is "reconnaissance". I call this exploration and this is where you can do whatever you want until you find out that certain techniques or methods are limited to or suitable for that fishing environment. Another great video!!!
Great channel I been watching your back catalog of videos. I use the drop net & bicycle wheels here in Guernsey for catching spider crab the same as you use for crayfish & yabbies. Its great method and that anticipation of what will come up in the net 👍
Great new intro there Robbie. You've been taking me better go yabbying this weekend for a feed and bait. Hopefully the missus can peel them later. Enjoy.
Nice yabbies, I like the new intro and extro?. Went gold detecting other day, bugger all gold but I found a dam with yabby holes as round as a longneck and I spooked some fish in the shallows reddies I'm thinking. Time for a recon mission.cheers Craig
Well done mate good size yabbies especially the first one wow Robbie's deadliest Catch Love the new look of intro and final to the video great format Well done mate.
YEAH!!!!!!!!! so glad for you (big smiles) on the yabby how beautiful moon light to bad you are alone your family would probably enjoy seeing it with you. good catch with the big yabby come back and get more for appetizers for another day. good job robbie have a great day hoping as always to see you tomorrow (thumbs up)
Thank you so much Phoebe. I hope you have a wonderful day too. I have a fee videos lined up, but over the next 4 to 6 weeks things will really start to slow down for me as everything cools. I will still be making videos, just not quite as many.
it is quite alright one of the homestead families that i watch has taken a week off to get there things in order. things like that happen and i understand. just know that i will be waiting for everyone that comes out. (big smiles) @@robbiefishing
Good going Robbie. Caught a heap in a friends dam not long ago including my best yabbie ever. This dam is hardly touched so it is full of them. I have a picture of me holding the big one on my facebook page. It is funny because it came up upside down.
G'day Greg, In my part of Australia these small ponds in paddocks are called dams. On outback New South Wales they are called tanks. Basically they are just a hole in the ground, duh by heavy earth moving machinery designed to catch rainwater or run off during time of rainfall and store the water so that cattle, and other domestic stock have access to water during the dry summer months.
Hey robbie im stunbling on this video 4 years after its relief because my mum and dad gifted me thus bait trap for chrissie havent had a chance to try it out til now, what bait did you use mate?
Hi Doyle, WOW thank you so much for watching me all the way from Texas. I hope to get over there some day. I was on California and Nevada in 2001 but havent been able to make it back there ever since unfortunately.
They never go far mate even if the dam gets flooded. Whenever there is flooding generally a lot of grass and branches and what not wash in and puts too much oxygen in the water so half will head out of the dam for a while or dig down in the mud till the oxygen levels lower a bit. Used to happen all the time in our dams in flooding haha had to wait a month or two to get back to yabbying but the where back in full force.
Thanks so much Charlie. The content wont be this regular forever. Once things cool down so will the fishing. I will still be uploading videos just not as regularly.
Got a Fenix HL60R after losing my Black Diamond Icon and it's hands down the best bang for your buck. Metal casing, shock proof, water proof up to a metre, USB rechargeable and on the highest setting you can feel the sheer heat coming from the lens if you touch it. Only downside is you only have 40 minutes of battery on the highest setting lol. Fishing the river at night you can spot all the possums hiding in the trees on the other side, love this thing. While the Black Diamond was good, it had half the Lumen rating but a more focused beam on the highest setting but having that giant battery pack on the back of my head that fitted 4 AA batteries would give me headaches if I wore it all night fishing. You could detach it from the headband to wear on your shirt or whatever but I never really bothered with it.
Hi mate it depends on a number of things. For example, in this case I wanted anything of any size just to show me what was in the dam. Small yabbies can climb through the nets with the open top nets, so it made sense to use these nets.
I like the new intro and outro, are they permanent or are you just trying something new? Good to see the yabbies are present and active in the dam again mate that's awesome.
robbiefishing how do cook your yabbies ol mate? Any secret recipes or anything? Normally i boil mine, into ice water, peel then pickle the tasty little buggers!
Hi mate they are signal crayfish in a lot of ways, they are the Australian version. Different genus and species but basically the same thing. A small freshwater crustacean that dogs into the mud.
@@robbiefishing Thanks for replying mate I'm in the UK and our native crayfish look completely different that's why I was asking, the signals here are an invasive spieces here and there's thousands of them I can put out a net like yours for an hr and have 30+ signals in it my mate even caught 1 on rod and line fishing for red fine perch
@@robbiefishing Robbie u seem to be doing well fishing wise all my good spots have turned crap cos one was poisoned and other went dry and we've had no luck on the Murray. Only place doing good is mulwala do u have a reason why
Hi mate, Lake Mulwala always fishes well at this time of the year. @@ashhook61 love it down there in autumn. The fishing in my area has slowed too mate.
Hey - bet you didn't know the scientific name of the common freshwater yabby - (Cherax destructor) - I think that is a much better name than plain ol' yabby Oh yeah , and also , about the town chlorine water - if you leave the bucket of water in the shed for about a week or so , all thr chlorine escapes and should be fine - just sayin'
hahaha mate, I bet I did know that. LOL I often refer to them as Cherax Destructors in my videos. Here is a poem that I read once: A spinster to ease her frustrations, As dildos tried several crustaceans, A shrimp was too limp, And her prawn was soon warn, But Cherax Destructor sure f*$ked her.

Wonderful video! Always puts a smile on my face, got so caught up watching your older videos I didn’t even realise you posted another!
Hahaha thank you so much for your amazing support mate.
Got a Keeper sized Callop today on the very first cast of a lure and both Robbie and Sick Puppy 4x4 uploaded new content, my day is made.
WOW mate awesome work. Well done.
Thanks mate, been a bit of a dry spell lately so it was a surprise.
A couple of solid ones in there Robbie. 👍🏼
Thanks mate. I was so happy to see them back in the dam.
@@robbiefishing It's an awesome feeling to get that confirmation.
Great night.. how cool is the moon.. agreed sit in decky n relax looking at that....
who would have thought yabbing could be so entertaining...only Robbie could do it well done good video
Love the new intro, great video, and I love the yabby / fishing video. you should do more of these. great idea! I hope you and your family is doing well. can't wait for the next video.
Hi Kota thanks so much for the kind comment mate.
Great new intro Robbie.
Great vid Robbie, love the recon missions. Never know what your going to get!
Thanks mate, me too. I LO e exploring and discovering.
One of the more fun things to do before you fish is "reconnaissance". I call this exploration and this is where you can do whatever you want until you find out that certain techniques or methods are limited to or suitable for that fishing environment. Another great video!!!
Thanks heaps mate. I have a stack of yabby recon, and trout recon videos. hahaha I love it too.
Nice size keepers there mate, liked the new intro. Cheers big ears. Moose
Thanks heaps Moose.
Hey Moose! Long time no see!
Great channel I been watching your back catalog of videos. I use the drop net & bicycle wheels here in Guernsey for catching spider crab the same as you use for crayfish & yabbies. Its great method and that anticipation of what will come up in the net 👍
Thank you so much Trojs. Catch spider crabs sounds like a lot of fun. Thank you for watching.
Thanks M8 your making me hungry, love yabbies :-)
Great new intro there Robbie. You've been taking me better go yabbying this weekend for a feed and bait. Hopefully the missus can peel them later. Enjoy.
Hahahaha put her to work mate. LOL. Good luck mate.

WOW mate exciting time ahead for you I think. Awesome.
Hey Robbie fantastic video again. I saw a video from Florida where they used a whole fish for bait and they had tons of crawdads in their traps.
Hi Lisa WOW that sounds interesting. I have used carp for bait plenty if times but never a whole carp. Perhaps I should try it.
Those were huge great catch Robbie
Thanks Dale. I was stoked.
Lovely couple of yabbies there Robbie, How about a clean, cook and recipe for plating up to go with them?
Well done mate good size yabbies especially the first one wow
Robbie's deadliest Catch
Love the new look of intro and final to the video great format
Well done mate.
Hi John thanks so much mate. A wonderful man by the name of Steven Ransley made them for me.

Thanks Phil. WOW that sounds awesome. Well done mate.
Robbie, please for a Yank basically explain what these dam's exactly are, where do they get their water etc. Thanks, enjoy your channel.
G'day Greg,
In my part of Australia these small ponds in paddocks are called dams. On outback New South Wales they are called tanks.
Basically they are just a hole in the ground, duh by heavy earth moving machinery designed to catch rainwater or run off during time of rainfall and store the water so that cattle, and other domestic stock have access to water during the dry summer months.
Awesome Robbie. Do you kayak fish anymore would love a Murray cod kayak fishing in video would be awesome
Hi mate I love kayak fishing and am hoping to get out again soon. The problem that I have is that a have hurt my back which isn't great for kayaking.
robbiefishing no good Mate hope you get well soon
Hey robbie im stunbling on this video 4 years after its relief because my mum and dad gifted me thus bait trap for chrissie havent had a chance to try it out til now, what bait did you use mate?
Hi mate, thanks so much for tuning into my older videos. From memory I'm pretty sure that I was using dry dog food as bait.
Love the new intro Robbie👍
Thanks so much Harvey.
Nice video Robbie
Thanks mate.
Like the new Intro Robbie!!
Thanks heaps Chris.
I'm from Texas but great video we call them crawfish but it's still great
Hi Doyle, WOW thank you so much for watching me all the way from Texas. I hope to get over there some day. I was on California and Nevada in 2001 but havent been able to make it back there ever since unfortunately.
You're very welcome my friend
hey Robbie nice intro mate keep up the good work
Thanks heaps mate.
New intro, nice mate
Thanks mate.
Hi Robbie. Loved the video. How do you get the yabbies to purge so they don't taste muddy?
Thanks mate. To be honest these days I don't even worry about it. Theu yasye amazing straight out of the water no matter how dirty the water is.
Great to catch a feed. You ripper 😉
Thanks Vincent. They are the nicest things in the whole world to eat, even better than your breakfast sausages. LOL
They never go far mate even if the dam gets flooded.

Hi Jesse that is very reassuring. Thanks so much for the info mate.
Loving the continuous content and new intro
Thanks so much Charlie. The content wont be this regular forever. Once things cool down so will the fishing. I will still be uploading videos just not as regularly.
Makes me want to head out tonight with the nets
haha Thanks mate. They will slow down very soon. I will miss the yabbying when that time comes.
Nice destructors mate
Thanks mate. I am going to miss this the most when the weather cools. LOL
Well done on the Serbian Nippers!
But dude, for night fishing/filming, GET a good LED head lamp!
Hey UF, I have a really good headlamp but it is no good with my gopro. The moment they knock together it sounds like a hammer hitting my gopro. LOL

Yeah, can be a problem. EVER thought of a chest mount then maybe?
Hey robbie how do you decide which net you want to use like open top or the baitcatcher ones
Hi mate it depends on a number of things. For example, in this case I wanted anything of any size just to show me what was in the dam. Small yabbies can climb through the nets with the open top nets, so it made sense to use these nets.
Whoa! New opening. Nice,
Thanks heaps mate.
Awesome video
I like the new intro and outro, are they permanent or are you just trying something new? Good to see the yabbies are present and active in the dam again mate that's awesome.
Thanks mate. The intro is permanent but the outro has changed again.
Love the new intro
Thanks heaps Lachie.
This is how i got 18 same nets, :) works good
The new. Intro❤️😍
Good video
Thanks mate.
Dam yabbies.....
All the dams i have access to have no yabbies anymore..i hope they come back
I hope they do too for your sake mate.

Hey Tim, so close mate. Wont be long buddy and you will have him on the bank.
Yeah was so close but theirs always next time
That was a bloody monster... so were the yabbies!! Haha jk
Hahahaha love it. Thanks so much mate.
robbiefishing how do cook your yabbies ol mate? Any secret recipes or anything? Normally i boil mine, into ice water, peel then pickle the tasty little buggers!
love new into
Thanks so much mate.
No need to reply, but great video.
Cool video, intros cool to
Thanks heaps mate.
All my comments appear twice now for some reason
Haha I have no idea sorry mate. It happens to me on Facebook but then one dissappears. LOL
That was on the buzzjet
What is your biggest yabbie
Hey mate the biggest this season was 27cm stretched out from end of tail ti end if claw.
Keep it up mate
Thanks mate.
Can anyone tell me what a yabbie actually is? To me they look like signal crayfish but I'm not sure

Gday robbie love the vids mate if your ever up south east qld way hit me up. Got some ripper bass spots

@@robbiefishing Robbie u seem to be doing well fishing wise all my good spots have turned crap cos one was poisoned and other went dry and we've had no luck on the Murray. Only place doing good is mulwala do u have a reason why
Hi mate, Lake Mulwala always fishes well at this time of the year. @@ashhook61 love it down there in autumn.

Hey robbie
Hey Bro
Hey mate.
Unbelievable
Can’t catch any yabbies any tips
Hey mate, look for dams that are really dirty.
Put it back let them breed
Hey - bet you didn't know the scientific name of the common freshwater yabby - (Cherax destructor) - I think that is a much better name than plain ol' yabby
