  • Ahoy legends! This week the Phantom and I are using a simple bait with deadly results to do some stealth fishing in shallow water! That's right we are doing some bread and butter angling for whiting by wading the Gold Coast flats casting unweighted yabbies (or nippers). This is an awesome style of fishing that literally anyone can do, and believe me, it's a stack of fun! To top it off we managed to track down some really nice sized fish including a true giant for the phantom, as well as plenty of bycatch as well. Hope you enjoy this episode!

    I love our back-to-basics sessions.
    It is where you and I and probably most of us started out.
    It's great to have some simple, yet quality tackle to make that sort of fishing not only possible, but lots of fun.
    It's always good to have a fish with you, it was a great day.
    Also, a big congratulations on reaching 70k subscribers.
    I admire your persistence and hard work and of course your love of anything fishing.
    Here's to you Sam 🍻

    Hi Sammy you should always leave the big nipper on the yabbie as the white nipper waving around attracts better quality fish and helps scare off the undersize pickers in my experience. Yes they can bite you but they aren’t a mud crab

    Love your fishing videos. I, too, am an avid fisherman, though I haven't taken my boat out fishing here in San Diego, California in a few months. We call those yabbies ghost shrimp. We also use those same pumps to get them out as well. I love using artificial lures to catch fish but at times going out to catch bait, whatever it may be, to go fishing is also fun, especially when I take my young son out with me. He's 11 years old now and I've been taking him fishing with me since he was 6 months old. Love your content and keep on making the videos. I may never get to go fishing where you're at personally but I can vicariously fish through you. Thanks again. Fish on!

    One of the best baits in Cape Town are these sand prawns, caught lots of White Stump and Steenbras on them but they attract many different types of fish species, a great bait. Only available using a prawn pump, other than them their was Blood Worm which were also a great all round bait.

    Well Done Phantom, what a bloody great whitting. Best catch I've ever had of whitting was down at Jumpinpin on the tip of South Stradie, with a cast net, 12 legal size in one cast. My pomie Mate was amazed, and then when we went back around the corner and the "Ship Shop Cat" pulled up beside us and I went on board and bought two beers the only thing my Pomie Mate could say was "I love this country". Happy Days and Great memories thanks guys.

    Sammy, we grew up fishing like that, my mum said I prefer your fish all crumbed up and shallow fried. Put some oxo chicken stock in with your bread crumbs, they taste lovely. The bigger whiting prefer fresh blood worms, my record is 48cms and weighed 800 odd grams. Thanks for the video mate, I enjoyed it very much.

    We have the exact same prawn in South Africa called Pinkies , we also get a tougher , darker one called mudprawns usually found in the same estuaries ... target fish are mainly Spotted Grunter , Steenbras , Cob ( identical to Mulloway ) our version of Bream and to a lesser extent River Gurnard ( various sub species , identical to your Flathead ) 👍👍

    Nice little session, we chase the whiting down here in South Oz all the time, especially the KG's. I've got a newspaper clipping of a fella who caught the biggest King George whiting in known history, it was a freak fish, you're not gonna believe this, it was 103 cm long. I forget how many kilos it weighed but it's head was bigger than the dudes head who caught it. He caught it off Kangaroo Island here in South Oz, it's the place for absolutely huge KG's, I've never seen bigger whiting anywhere in Australia. btw don't you fella's burley them up, we burley them up here and it works a treat

    Hey Sammy, love this type of fishing and can't wait to do it with my son once he's a little bit older. Do you have any tips for finding ground where you can pump for yabbies? We're south brisbane so it's a pretty densely populated area. Growing up in Hervey Bay it was just a matter of finding the closest beach which isn't so much the case here
