Hi James, You saved these breams, well done mate! I'm also from Asia and speak mandarin; I hope the terrible actions of these individuals will not make the local fisherman misunderstand us. My friends and I are very supportive of the VFA's laws to protect fish and the environment. I think every fisherman needs to go fishing without harming the environment.
Thanks mate! Unfortunately this happens quite often and not many people do anything about it. I understand they want to bring a feed home even though the water quality is poor, however don’t keep undersized fish haha. 💪
I wish that they brought one hearing South Australia because I see so many of them not doing the right thing and it's disgraceful. Specially that I respect environment around them they just leave their gear accidentally I don't know but they trash where there being.
Great to see James your peaceful and courteous approach towards this person Can only help this man to be educated I like the fact that he threw them back and seemed to appreciate your info well done
Good on you James for calling that guy out. I fish at Edgewater quite a bit and see it happening all to often. Speaking of wildlife, did anyone else see the dolphin crusing up and down the Nong on Sunday morning stealing our fish?
Bro well done. You handled that soo much better than I. I have in my life been very unkind to these types of people. You are a great example. Keep it up.
Great job on informing him. It’s always a shame to see people keeping undersized fish without regard for the longevity of the species. But I reckon that guy was playing dumb considering all the equipment he had.
Looks like the river is maturing with quality for the fish to be populating. Good job confronting the fisher and keeping him honest. I saw a phenomenon along the river last Easter Friday where swarms of young brim were feeding along the edges. I haven't seen it since and don't know why. Have you come across that before?
Good one mate dont know what the laws for undersize fish in Victoria are but in NSW he would been coping a big fine if caught. Some other thing i have used for bream fishing are aniseed and parmesan cheese all very smelly what bream like good luck.
Thanks mate, lucky I got to him first. Funny enough I bumped into fisheries about an hour later! I have to give the cheese a go for sure! Won’t parmesan cheese fall off the hook?
It's in their DNA. using narrowest nets you can get and hauling every little fish in the ocean completely destroyed their fishery and now sending boats all across the world. Sharks fins are a plus.he just seems too organises to not know what he's doing.
He understands.....I've seen it for many, many years. They should have signs up in Mandarin, Cantonese and Vietnamese at every common fishing spot so they can no longer plead ignorance, its beyond a joke. I see it probably 80% of the time I go on a shore based fish in Sydney. Not a ranger or fisheries officer to be seen.
Lol you’re too diplomatic but that is the best approach. There is no doubt that the individual was fully aware of the legal size limit. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t have been tossing fish back immediately after opening the cooler instead of measuring each fish to figure out what you were talking about. 😉
Yep, unfortunately that’s the way to go. If you don’t do anything they won’t care and will still do it. Hopefully he won’t anymore but knowing him, he proposed will
good job mate you did good but one thing i dont really think it takes that long for bream to grow probably just about 10 years or so but otherwise ya did good
It's disappointing that they don't respect their ramen all the fish at all we get them here in sa and I wish that they bring out a fishing licence. But on the good hand I have come across some of them tight that are very loving in caring and a very happy to give you knowledge about the fish They buy by the rules because they want to see their kids fishing and when I took my son out fishing a gentleman said to make come with me and I will get your son to catch some decent fish but we release them. Any was really nice of him my son caught some beautiful brim and we got to release them and especially king George Whiting take a good toga catch and release.
Mate he is Chinese and same as my dad,they are just fishing for food and they don’t care about the size.My dad always say that they once lived in starvation and needed everything they have to eat and like so they are food factor fisherman.They enjoy the fishing but more the food and they just want their money back from the lures or bait they bought.
The only time that they will understand you if you say to them and they can finally speak Australian English is when you say to them you won the lottery. It really pisses me off when I play the cards that they don't speak English will understand our language. It's not fair on the fish and it Takes a bream them a long time to grow. Or I hate people saying O you need to catch more them to get a decent feed know if their undersides please let them go it doesn't mean you have to catch more to get a decent feed catch the right legal size fish.
I see this time and time again. Always the same people who play dumb. Go to Blairgowrie or Flinders pier and u will see them keeping anything that comes out of the water, regardless of size. Even leaving toadies on the pier to die so they don’t have to catch them again. NO RESPECT!!!!!!
Even though it’s the right thing to do …I myself wouldn’t start any altercations over it ….and keep to my own ….for this sole and very important reason….people who are keeping undersize fish can become extremely violent ….as can any altercation …so in saying that you have to weigh up is that fish’s life worth possible injury or death ….just saying one guy may be cool another may have a gun in the pocket know what I mean ….🤷♂️
What a rubbish bloke, had all the gear and pretends he doesn't know about sizes, bet he's been doing it for years. Seen plenty like him in Docklands where they don't care about size or bag limits.I'd be careful about approaching them especially if they are in groups.
To be completely honest, he knows the minimum size, he simply choose to keep it. I am Asian and it is people like him that makes me feel ashamed to be Asian at times.
Well done brother, i like the way you informed him instead of abusing him, this is what we need
Cheers bro, spot on! Not always about violence and yelling. It’s about fixing your mistakes and learning from it.

Good work James! Keep these guys honest. He probably didn't even have a fishing licence
Thanks mate! Unfortunately this happens quite often and not many people do anything about it. I understand they want to bring a feed home even though the water quality is poor, however don’t keep undersized fish haha. 💪
I wish that they brought one hearing South Australia because I see so many of them not doing the right thing and it's disgraceful. Specially that I respect environment around them they just leave their gear accidentally I don't know but they trash where there being.
I hate to say this, but it always seems to be the same ethnicity that does this sort of thing.
Good job man. Handled it well.
Good man for telling him some people just don’t care 👍👍and ignore it love to see people do the right thing for our environment
Thanks mate! Looking after the future fishery.
Great to see James your peaceful and courteous approach towards this person
Can only help this man to be educated I like the fact that he threw them back and seemed to appreciate your info well done
Thanks, it’s not all about yelling and screaming. Just be patient and hopefully it has educated him regarding limits etc.
Good job mate, see this far too often in Docklands. Never once seen fisheries around either.
Unfortunately they all can’t be stopped. It’s all about doing the right thing
so pleased he finally stopped and listened and done the right thing. Good on ya man
some of those wouldn’t have even been a mouthful of food so pathetic…. good job calling him out mate
Thanks Sam, Let them go, let them grow 💪
That's the way! Awesome work
🤟
Good work buddy..annoying they do it all the time
Good on you James for calling that guy out. I fish at Edgewater quite a bit and see it happening all to often. Speaking of wildlife, did anyone else see the dolphin crusing up and down the Nong on Sunday morning stealing our fish?
Thanks mate, heard about the dolphin
Bro well done. You handled that soo much better than I. I have in my life been very unkind to these types of people.
You are a great example. Keep it up.
Thanks mate, can always try.
Good on you for calling him out mate

I saw a phenomenon along the river last Easter Friday where swarms of young brim were feeding along the edges. I haven't seen it since and don't know why. Have you come across that before?
Thanks Rick, yes this time of year the bream are in large numbers. A heap of small ones too
Good on ya James.
Cheers Jake
Nice bream video. Also I can guarantee you that he knew they where under size
I think so too 😬
Well done mate. Education is important even tho I think he knew exactly what he was doing. Good on you for being so cool headed about it.
Thanks Michael! Education is key, however I believe he knew exactly too
Great work mate! 🙌🏼
Great job for speakin up mate 👍
He knew what he was doing but good on you 👍
Great job 👏🏼
Good job man I don't know why people keep small fish leav some fish for others and let them grow
Good stuff James, he had heaps of bream too lucky you were there to teach him a lesson all we can hope is he doesn’t do it again
Got to him just in time 👌
Good one mate dont know what the laws for undersize fish in Victoria are but in NSW he would been coping a big fine if caught. Some other thing i have used for bream fishing are aniseed and parmesan cheese all very smelly what bream like good luck.
Thanks mate, lucky I got to him first. Funny enough I bumped into fisheries about an hour later! I have to give the cheese a go for sure! Won’t parmesan cheese fall off the hook?
@@JamesFishingAdventures just a mix of stinky things in a bucket and give the bait a marinate before throwing out.
@@grimreaper6112 any other cheese that work? I’m keen to try everything I can for the bream
Well handled! Lucky he had a keeper and they went back alive.
Thanks Sean, lucky 💪
Good catch James. It would be good if a fishing ranger caught him 😂. Can't get big fishes if we don't let small one's grow😏
Good on you mate.. he honestly didn't look like he was going to put them back until you stayed on his case..
He was definitely going to bring them home. 😂
Hi I’m a local fisherman could you send a link of that spot you were fishing first and good job in the fish.
Good session again man! How is the barbless undersize keeping stingray trying to get away with it! Well done for getting onto him 🔥🙏🏽
Cheers man, he can’t catch the big ones because he wasn’t using whole chooks! 😜
@@JamesFishingAdventures hahaha whole chooks or nothin 🤣
Good job mate, good onya he didn't mean wrong he probably didn't know all the regulation but atleast he does now
Hopefully he does now
Good job with the rules many times i have seen this and most people say no there size because i am younger
With a $500 Yeti cooler ... go buy some from the market! Top job mate, not getting angry - but educating the angler as well...
well handled mate
Thanks mate
It's in their DNA. using narrowest nets you can get and hauling every little fish in the ocean completely destroyed their fishery and now sending boats all across the world. Sharks fins are a plus.he just seems too organises to not know what he's doing.
Good on ya bro. More people should speak up
Thanks Leonard, 💯
Whata that location where u were doing finishing under bridge jami boy
He understands.....I've seen it for many, many years. They should have signs up in Mandarin, Cantonese and Vietnamese at every common fishing spot so they can no longer plead ignorance, its beyond a joke. I see it probably 80% of the time I go on a shore based fish in Sydney. Not a ranger or fisheries officer to be seen.
hi mate good on ya for keeping him honest. isn't it 25cm legal size.
Good job where did you fish at?
Lol you’re too diplomatic but that is the best approach. There is no doubt that the individual was fully aware of the legal size limit. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t have been tossing fish back immediately after opening the cooler instead of measuring each fish to figure out what you were talking about. 😉
Yep, unfortunately that’s the way to go. If you don’t do anything they won’t care and will still do it. Hopefully he won’t anymore but knowing him, he proposed will
Seen this sort stuff happened all the time, most people just don’t care what part of river was this
good job mate you did good but one thing i dont really think it takes that long for bream to grow probably just about 10 years or so but otherwise ya did good
I hate when people do that when I was cod fishing once a guy caught a cod out fi season
I swear this is the same guy me and my mate izzy seen at Newport warmies taking undersize bream we busted him 2 times
Well done James with that guy wouldn't mind putting next weeks pay he new exactly the size anyway have to give them the benefit of doubt
excellent session and excellent outcome with the under sized bream nice to see the fisherman listen to reason and released the fish cheers
12:05 whats ur idiot mate doin with his rod lmaooo
Haha think it was by accident
They know the legal size but just pretend they don't..
Hey mate nice fishing where are you fishing pls tell me
James where is the exact location of this fishing spot . ???
It's disappointing that they don't respect their ramen all the fish at all we get them here in sa and I wish that they bring out a fishing licence.

Did you buy Garlic Spray or make yourself? If bought where do you buy from?
Got it from Frogleys Offshore, should be able to find garlic spray from most tackle stores too
79 fills a wok.
Need more I reckon 😂
A little disappointed for others anglers not following a simple rules good job mate
Mate he is Chinese and same as my dad,they are just fishing for food and they don’t care about the size.My dad always say that they once lived in starvation and needed everything they have to eat and like so they are food factor fisherman.They enjoy the fishing but more the food and they just want their money back from the lures or bait they bought.
F he'll why u kept so many small breaks he knew it
Should called ranger to give him fine
Apparently there were dolphins in there today.
👍👍👍👍👍☕☕
He knew exactly what he was doing, I'd have reported him

Yessir
Can you call the cops and get them fined?

Well done mate, it’s a common theme with the same demographic. Portsea is rife with it at night as you know.
James, i liked your thought to increase awareness however, you could have done this behind the camera. No offence, just random thought.
To be completely honest, he knows the minimum size, he simply choose to keep it. I am Asian and it is people like him that makes me feel ashamed to be Asian at times.
It's like these you tubers who catch big flathead but never show the release of it or only show that they catch 2 or 3 but in reality have 20 lol
Jsmes fishing aventurec Youre a fish teaser
Youre a fish teaser James
Always Asian
Not always.
