GOOD Flathead & Trevally Fishing Canals!!! Mooloolaba, Sunshine Coast Landbased
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2018
- G'day everyone, I hope you're all well.
So in today's video the wind forces us to stay inshore, so we took the chance to flick some lures landbased in the canals. (Mooloolaba Canals, Sunshine Coast)
Some local boys get onto a very good fish, after a great fight. Well done to Bryce, Ruben, and Sullivan!
We got onto a few Flathead and Trevally ourselves, ending up in a decent afternoon's fishing.
Cheers, and tight lines!
Nice work 👍 Good to see the kids catch and release as well
Thanks MrCods, and yeah definitely. I think that all the promotion about catch and release over the last few years has really started to rub off on the younger generations which is great to see. Cheers for the comment mate 👍
@@willkitching Hey Will ! I haven't seen a video from you lately. Is everything ok ??...I just had a look and noticed that i hadn't ticked the notification bell..Maybe that was it
@@steiny3353 Graham Itzstein Hey mate! Yeah I've been so frustrated, I have a lot of footage to post but haven't had much time to get it up! 😕 between university, sport, and work, I've been absolutely flat out lately. I finally posted a new video a couple of days ago and have another one coming this week hopefully. Went for a fish last night and got some huge Whiting. Thanks for the comment mate I really appreciate the thought to check up on me. How have you been mate?

Hi Rachel and Mitchell! Thanks so much for the comment, all the way over in Japan! I hear the fishing is pretty good over there; but I'm sure it's nothing like what we have here at home. 😊 I really appreciate you watching the video and leaving a comment. Stay in touch and let me know if you get into some fish when you get home! What do you usually fish for? Enjoy your stay in Japan too. Thanks, Will

Great video mate
Thanks mate!!
Those flathead look far out man! Just dropd that sub from the states. Tight lines.
Yeah mate they're such an epic fish! They grow to over a meter, if you ever get a chance to come over you should definitely try to catch one 👌 thanks for the comment and sub I really do appreciate it!
yeaaahhh Mooloolaba can't wait to come home nice video
Thanks for the kind words!! The Sunshine Coast is such a beautiful place. Are you overseas at the moment?
@@willkitching yeah living in the USA wish I could be back for a visit but corona
@@Biancamarton1 That's a big move! And yes corona is a big problem at the moment, it is a bit crazy how it's getting in the way of so much
My first fish of the day around Christmas last year and I think it was around 7am in the shallows near my uncles place which is practically on 5he river
Good stuff mate!! 🙌
Will Kitching thnx mate
She was about 30cm
@@lachlanhargraves2910 Was it a Flathead?
@@willkitching yea
Is there any specific directions I can take to get to this spot I might visit it shortly
Hey mate, it's one of the canals that Brisbane road goes over, near 'Jetts Mooloolaba' (you will see the canals on google earth/maps). These have sand edges and you can walk pretty much the whole way around the edges! Tight lines I hope you get onto some. Sometimes I have to do a lot of casts before catching one and sometimes don't catch anything there hahah but it's fun when you do! Cheers 👍🎣
I’m not sure if you said it in the video but what were you using mate
G’day mate, I was using a Squidgies soft plastic ‘fish’ in the killer tomato colour. I think it was about 95mm. I’m not sure if they still make them but anything will work, flathead aren’t fussy!
Where abouts is this mate love to take my kids down I'm in mooloolaba
Hey mate this is in Tuckers Creek, but any of the canals around there hold them! Good luck, I hope you and the kids can get onto some 👍 Cheers
Hey mate, what lures do you use when targeting trev’s?
G'day mate, thanks for watching and commenting! 🎣 Trevs can be caught on paddle tail soft plastics hopped on the bottom or if you know there is a school of Trevally there just wind it through them. They'll also hit poppers and stickbaits on the surface, especially if they are busting up and splashing on the surface. People also get them on hardbodies, even as by catch when fishing for Mangrove Jack. As you can probably tell they will eat pretty much anything that's like a baitfish, it's more about finding areas where they hang out and you'll get some 😁 they love structure and usually hang around canals and rivers, like rockwalls, pontoons, bridges, etc.
Hope this helps mate if you have any other questions just let me know! 🎣🔥 Good luck !
@@willkitching Cheers, thanks for the help mate👍
What lures Were you using for the trevally or bait ??
?
Squidgy soft plastics in the "killer tomato" colour mate, good luck
Im going to the canals later on using z man grub 2.5 you reckon that'll work there ?
@@trueskateworldfirst472 Yeah that will be good, let me know how you go!!
Hi mate, it is possible to share the location?
Thanks.
Hi mate! Yes this is Tuckers Creek, one of the canals in the Mooloolah River. I park on Bindaree Crescent and walk along that stretch casting lures, then cross the road and fish on the other side of the bridge too and walk along casting at the drop off. Good luck! 😁👍🎣
Where is that bridge mate?
Tuckers Creek I think it’s called mate, I park in Bindaree Crescent, but any of the canals around there hold fish 👍🎣 tight lines !
At 5:02 that’s my house
That’s awesome! I wish I lived in the water like that 😁🎣
Hey what were you using mate?
Hey mate, in terms of lures we were using soft plastics on a 1/4 ounce jighead, with a Squidgies ‘fish’ plastic in killer tomato colour. Since this session though I have started using a lot of Zman Minnowz (3inch paddle tails). They are a lot tougher and fish love them. I rig them on a 1/4 ounce jighead with a 3/0 hook.
I use 8-10lb braid with 14 lb fluorocarbon leader.
I hope this helps mate, if you have any other questions feel free to fire away! Tight lines! 🎣
@@willkitching thanks mate
the Mooloolaba canals are just great fishing! I caught a baby shovelnose shark there once!
Yeah mate they are! Perfect place for fish to feed amd hold in. Well done on the shovelnose :) thanks for the comment, cheers Will
@@willkitching thanks
