Some people have no etiquette when it comes to sharing the waterways. The ones who really annoy me are wake boats and jet ski's running back and forth near boat ramps making launching harder than it needs to be. Or tearing past an anchored vessel. On a lighter note, what a cracking way to start the year mate.
Couldn't agree more !! 100% of it all avoidable with some common sense.
Just curious did you anchor on them schools
Nah, just drifted. Was very calm morning so just kept drifting over the school
Gooooood snap snap. What a way to start the year
It sure was, Thanks !!!
At least you don't have any "nudies" down there now.
Was always fun 15 years ago dodging the "weird" people
I know, it used to be crazy down there. Dont worry you still get plenty of strange people in the car park there on sunrise, I've seen some really weird stuff there
Awesome start Allan.
Thanks Phil it sure was 👍
I bet old mate cast out some pilchard pieces on a paternoster rig and then wondered why he didn't catch anything decent! At least he came in slowly. Happy New Year from NZ.
Yep 1000% he put a spread of 4 or 5 rods and caught nothing, LOL
That is a cracking start mate 👍 🎣 👍
Great way to open the account on a new year well done Alan
Thanks 👍 Tony, it sure was. Happy New Year to you !!
Bugger. What a great day to be out. I was still recovering sadly. Happy New Year buddy.
Dont blame ya I had 2 hours sleep best but still glad i went out
Hi, mate, thanks for your tips on how to catch flathhead, i got my first flatty on werribee South land based this morning, it was 54cm, 1.6kg monster. Thank you man, using zman 2.5 motor oil on low tides 7.30 in the morning
At 3:35 just looking at the sounder had me jaw dropped…arcs a plenty 😮
Yep sounder was lit up like that for about an hour.
Some great fish around that rock wall. Or campbells cove even haha
Yeah there sure is amazing some of the fish you can catch in the shallows
brilliant. i’m buying a kayak next week so this is epic timing! happy new year chief :D
Happy new year! good luck with the new kayak
Great to see you back, maybe I should try the fog as clear sky doesn't seem to help.
Thanks Brenton !! Yeah surprisingly foggy conditions haven't fished well for me in the past but they were sure on new years day that's for sure.
Happy New Year Alan. Loved the Vid, Great start of fishing for the year!!
Thank you Jared and Happy new year! Was a great way to kick off 2023. Hope your having some time off and fishing
Hey Fishingmad, I gave a freshwater/saltwater guide-book to a friend because he's new but I'd like anything too. So I was looking online for a Victorian Fishing Guide but couldn't really find anything that would have all the species of fresh and saltwater fish, as well as techniques and strategies to catch them. I was thinking while looking, if you had a book, I would very much prefer buying it over anyone else. Your advice is always understandable and articulate. A guide made by you would sell, and probably have very hot tips.
You could probably extrapolate off the idea because you definitely would be smarter about it than I ever could. I would love to turn a guide-book into a scrapbook by glueing in pictures of my first species catches and add notes like rod setup and locations.
All of this information is readily available in the FishingMad Members area. Years and years of work documenting species guide it lists the recommended rods, reels, line, lures and plastics for each species, all the gear I use plus workshops, maps, reports, marks, giveaways and competitions. I'd really recommend you go and check it out. You can fins out more by visiting www.fishingmad.com.au/member hope that helps.
Awsome vid can you try and make a video on how to use youre sounder Well? as i have been struggling to do so.
Thanks Tina, We have a sounder school section in our members area, thats were we really cover all the fishing gear and how to use them.
Great job bud.Yeah mate some people just don't care. Including powerboats are the same. I would have said something for sure.
What ur type of trolling motor called it looks good
FPV 28lb trolling motor, there is a detaild vid on our youtube channel showing what it is, how its fitted and onwater tests
Great video Alan, that run on the twin power was music to the ears haha can’t wait for you redemption video on the kingfish in Portland mate
Thanks 👍 I agree its the best sound in the world and that twin power fd has one of the loudest drags so it sounds amazing on big runs. Yeah i should be up in Portland in a few weeks so really looking forward to that
@@fishingmad what dates are ya heading up to Portland man I’m going from the 20th to the 30th so If you’re there I’ll keep in touch with you and let you know if we’re on the fish 😊
Im curious to know how you navigate around the Lebo Navy?
the what? haha
What area is this mate? Or beach
Happy New Years dude and what a way to start the year.Are pinkies just smaller snappers? The weather there looks fantastic.Its my last week before work,bought a new car to get to fishing spots and the weather has turned to crap here in NZ for this week and the next lol.Look after yourself out there and thanks for posting up awesome videos.
Thanks and Happy New Year yeah locally pinkies are juvenile snapper anything really under 45cms. Thanks for the positive comments and good luck with the fishing in NZ a place i want to visit soon.
Nice video Alan, any recommended stable kayaks for port phillip bay. I'm on a budget for 1.5k
Ideally jump on Facebook marketplace and see if you can find a 2nd hand hobie outback or native watercraft going cheap. They are super stable and will last. Otherwsie might be something like a K2F or baysports which are OK
@@fishingmad baysports pedal pro 3.4 how's that? Is it stable or not
That guy that released that excellent snapper at 5.40 almost certainly killed it by sticking his fingers in its gills and handling it with bare hands. Use lip grips if you want to take it out of the water but don't handle them with your bare hands. And don't touch under the gillplate. You may as well eat them
where abouts and what colour an size lure
🙋
1st
Enjoy the episode its a good one !!
Yes Yes....ha ha...lake clean...yes yes....she cooke....hahah red see bass.....big drinks for yours...yes yes vodka...no big girl drinks..hahah yes vodka....Nice aussie boys
Thanks Mikhail yes some amazing fish and vodka over new years
Another excellent show mate. A Happy New Year to you all!
Happy new year to you aswell Angus. Thanks for positive comment.
@@fishingmad My pleasure Alan. Your videos are always very informative and inspirational. I looks forward to them each day. BTW mate did you see the ad that was posted on Instagram which advertised a mod called Koala something or other. They were advertising a lure that mimicked a real life fish. It had several segments that made it look realistic. The manufacture was supposedly giving them away free of charge (for the cost of the postage) but I was reluctant to give them my details; as in my former life (prior to retirement) I was a Senior Forensic Investigator and worked on a lot of fraud matters. At the moment; I am making some of my own paddle tails using silicone (been checking out youtube on the subject). It is quite therapeutic. I am hoping to get out to Warneet in the near future. Take care mate.
Thanks I really appreciate the comment. I'm pretty sure that Koala stuff is genuine I know a few people who have ordered them and got them even though I haven't ordered myself.
@@fishingmad Many thanks mate. Tight lines 👍
@@AngusMacKinnon-xm5ko yeah mate it’s legit, I’ve got one of the free lures and they work a treat!
