Great session on the Flatties. Interested in the brining, I usually salt mine down. That looks like a much better presented bait. Good day to start building a Rod, raining up in Newy today. Cheers
Yeah one of the best days fish and weather wise we’ve had in ages. Yeah they come out looking really good, whether the flatties care or not is another thing haha. I’ll get the brining video on the go soon so should be up in a week or so. Yeah perfect! What rod you got on the go?
@@anglinguntangled Just finished a 7ft 1pc 6-12lb 5-15gm cw Samuri blank, Fuji single foot guides, split grip. Beautiful rod. Total weight 128gm. Starting one, same setup but 7ft 2pc 3-10lb 3-14gm cw Been building for 8mths, Love it. Started a custom build & repair business. All started from a busted guide. $3k later 😂😂 Cheers Tight lines Stevo
Nice video mate, very informative. Always good just going for a flatty bottom bounce. Roughly what are are you fishing at?I don’t seem to find many tigers when I go out
Cheers Peter! This is down the far south coast of NSW. Not sure if tigers are a bit more common in shallow down here compared to the rest of the coast. While doing some research I read that the commercial dudes usually get them around 80m
Shame about the camera and the lost footage. An occupational hazard given the circumstances. Would heavier line to attach the camera be the answer ? I`m guessing that you wouldn`t want to scare fish away with too much or too heavy gear though.
Yeah was absolutely gutted when it happened. But will just need to get another one and try again. Should get some good beach fishing footage with it too. There isn’t much to be done to stop the leather jackets snipping you off, they’ll chew through 80lb mono and sometimes way up your line. Hadn’t encountered one all day so was just very unlucky to have it happen with the camera on
Hey John, no not yet and I may end up giving it a miss. I only have a GoPro to use and they don’t have great close focus which will be needed to make the video any good. But if you search up twisted dropper there are plenty of vids showing it off already. Some people say it’s easiest with monofilament but I find it easier with fluorocarbon. If your chasing flathead you’ll have the first dropper just high enough so it doesn’t tangle with your sinker and then just enough space between the droppers so the hooks aren’t tangling as well. Let me know how you get on with it mate!
@@anglinguntangled thanks mate appreciate it going out off swansea on the weekend will let you know how I go ! Went out last weekend but in the 20-30m mark and got heap of small ones so will try around the 40m mark this time. Great content
😂 no good, couple more trips and she’ll get her sea legs though 🤞🏼😆. We go out from tathra usually down here on the far south coast. Went out yesterday and did okay but was a bit patchy
Thanks mate...
No worries!
Nice work James love your work
Good to see you out with the Ole Boy. Say g’day for me
Yeah I’m dragging him out for a flick a fair bit these days haha. Happy new year from both us mate!
Love the vids, look forward to the brining one I might start keeping a few fish cakes
Much appreciated mate, will get the brining vid on the go and should have it up in a couple of vids. The brined Aussie salmon goes great guns for them
Great vid. Looking forward to the filleting one too
Cheers mate and just finished editing it! Will be up tomorrow night 🤞🏼
