Cheers lowy , we've had some rain recently... definitely has dirtied up the water mate ... thanks for sharing, keep up the good work my friend 👍
Certainly helped the fishing mate thats forsure.
Good to see you out and about Andrew.
You haven't had it Good on the weather .
I was in Blacktown over the weekend and it was terrible so I feel for you.
At least your out there trying.
Thank you for going to the effort you do to bring us a video. Look forward to your next adventure mate
Been awful weather Reg. If its not raining its blowing a gale. U cant win but i wont get anything sitting at home. We can only hope conditions get better but either way mate il get out there and bring another adventure of some sort soon. Thanks for your support as always Reg 🙏
Love the NITROS got 2 In my arsenal.
MAGNUM and a POWER BREAM 🤙🏾
Tough fishing to mate beautiful place got a new trailer so I can travel now
Yer its hard when its real windy and u can only fish certain spots, just have to make the best of it i guess. As u know filming in 40kph winds doesnt sound very good on video 🤣
A great video King Flatty, most enjoyable. Your slow day would have been a great day for me, thanks for sharing your knowledge. Cheers mate
Thanks Craig ,fishing an the weather have proved tough over the last month. Always good but to make the effort an catch something even when its crappy conditions.
G’day mate 👍🏼, I fished the Hawkesbury for a lot of years over 30 anyway, and loved it, it’s my favourite place to go. Great video as usual, mate.
Such a big system Wayne , i need about 30 years just to fish it all 🤣 il b back there again soon hopefully to keep exploring. At some point il run into some nice weather and some good fishing.
Good fun mate fished that river for over 45 years around 28 with lures landed many big jew in the 20s 30s and 40s .... I've seen a few vids of yours and your targeting not the best situations for larger jew ....you mainly are in school fish areas.... keep at it ...its all experience every trip...
Enjoyed all the best
Yer i always chase the school size fish these days, done alot of long nights when i was younger chasing big fish and it was definitely fun. Now i cant be as bothered to spend as much time just focusing on real big ones and for the videos catching the schoolies is within everyones reach so it has a broader appeal. Rather than just watching me cast big lures all day for no bites 🤣 if i can get a few fish early in the days i might then have a crack at some bigger fish again. It was very addictive chasing the big jewys here(newcastle) I definitely dont know the hawkesbury well enough yet.
Couldn't tell you were cold glad you pointed it out haha
4.30am on the water is no joke this time of year 🤣
Good stuff mate. Been watching your channel for a while and very enjoyable to watch. Would love to see more of your videos done on the Hawkesbury main river. Bar point would have probably been more productive for you with the lures. Try fishing the edge of the reef and drop offs. Can hold some monster mulloway. Good luck
I went past it mate but was right in the wind so i just kept going, i dont mind fishing in the wind but it sounds terrible through the gopro once its over 30kph. Keen to get back there but mate so ill give it a good look next trip. Thanks for watching mate 🙏
Yeah she blows hard through the main river. Definitely worth a good crack next time. Keep them coming bud
@@AdrianBozgai cheers mate an il try to keep the videos coming thanks for watching 🙏
Good vid mate was dam cold up river
Not wrong leon an u guys were going faster then me aswell way more wind chill 🤣 winter will b fresh in the mornings just have to hope for some better fishing.
Ha def , i managed another jewy donut 🍩 session
@@leongaston7775 its part of what makes it good i guess. There tricky suckers at times.
Hey mate, head over to that steep hill near where you were at Bar Point but go further over near the oyster farm, there's a huge drop off there opposite Milson Island, all the big ones sit on the drop off. You'll see it on your sounder. Caught some very nice ones there.
Cheers mate, it was heaps windy there that day so i just kept driving past it 🤣 i didnt even stop to sound it out but definitely will give it a look next trip there. I will take the heavy set next time just incase i mark some tanks 🤞
New spots are always going to be a challenge Andrew, but as always, you had it covered. Those finger tips looked cold and numb early on😂
The hand holding the tiller was numb pete by the time i got there an its not even that cold yet. Fun times ahead. Was good to get up there an have a look around even if those spots didnt produce this time. Marked up some decent ground il fish again in a few weeks.
I'm a bit late to your Fishing vid, better late than never.
Ya got a bit of the Hawkesbury fishing bug mate, great landscape to be fishing in
Least you got a few
I'd be happy catching anything atm or at least go fishin 🤪
I've gotta get down there one day, looks good
Work will slow your fishing down mate thats a guarantee. Yer very nice there stevo great looking place an lots of fishing options too.
@@Lowysfishing
Yeah I've been flat out, Anyway.
When it warms up going to plan a trip down there & stay a week & just go exploring
that's the plan
@@Stevos_HookedonRods4844 that would be a good trip mate.
Awesome mate! 🎉
Thanks Matty 🙏
Mateeee! True Eskimo out there whatever weather haha love the consistency! Mate you better not let anyone know about that spot you caught so many In a row 😂 Like always, cracking video 🔥 also, didn’t know you could catch perch in the salt! Rain must be doing weird things
They head down to the brackish and salt to spawn during the colder winter months but the rain wouldv pushed them out a bit already. Some big eps in the Hawkesbury mate. Yer whatever the weather its game time 🤣 cant catch any sitting at home 👍
Love the videos, and whats your favourite budget 2500 reel?
Thanks mate i like getting out there making them. I have a shimano sedona 1000 and for the price its pretty good. I recently got a shimano vanford 2500 it cost a fair bit more but its really nice aswell 👍
Nice catches Andrew. Were you upriver past Spencer ?
I went way up past bar point whatever that sections called mate. Ive never bn up there so was all new to me.
Fishing my local😊.They've opened up warragamba dam to lessen the water so you're going to see a lot of fresh coming down so the bite slows until salinity returns.
Found that to be the case way up river, very dirty lots of fresh and bugger all bites 🤣 was still good to get up there and have a look around for next time 👍
@@Lowysfishing yeah it was nice to see you fishing in new area ...tight lines mate 👍🏻
Never been to the Hawksbury to fish, my work is in mount white which is like 5 mins away, been tough fishing the last month
Nice an close mate 5 mins. Takes me over an hour to get there but i do like fishing new places an exploring new ground. No boat this weekend sadly its in getting a service so if anything il just b bank fishing 😩 would b decent up in the rivers in your kayak.
@@Lowysfishing I’m planning on buying a dual cab Ute so I’ll be able to explore a bit more. Dang, hopefully the servicing doesn’t take too long
@@MitchosFishing awesome youll have some fun with that. Boat was meant to be ready that day then they didnt have parts of course now il b lucky if i have it but next week. U can bet the weather will suck 🤣
i went for a little trip up the hawkesbury the other day a few 60s but none legal sadly got little trip tho
At least u caught some fish thats the main thing mate. Beats getting a donut thats forsure.
its been good at sydney harbor recently but dont blame you if you cant be bothered driving that far
Yer atm thats too far 🤣 an my boats too small for that place. Maybe one day but 🤞
@@Lowysfishing my mate has a 3.5 metre tinny and he goes there but you just cant go off shore you can still chill at the entrence on a good day but a bit farther in is great for kings
@@ChrisFaustmann an who doesnt love catching kingys. One of my favorites mate.
weathers been horid latley good its cleared up a bit
The week was nice then terrible on the weekend as usual mate.
How big are those lures?
@@LoganAguinaldo the transams are 95mm and the plastics from 4-5 inch mate 👍
I was on my boat today in Pittwater and it realy windy
Im so keen to go back there but everytime im off its just windy or pissing down rain. An its a big drive for me to get there. Next few weeks hopefully i get a good weather window.
Yeah it’s not to good weather lately
@@petrahuber1928 its nice this weekend because i dont have a boat the motors getting a service 🤣🤣
😂
if you go under both the bridges and turn right youll see a red marker and just i little farther is a good jew spot
I will check that out next trip there thanks 🙏 always good to have a few spots to have a fish.
