Cheers mate! Yeah a very rugged way to fish and adrenaline pumping when you hook those good ones. Much appreciated mate will hopefully be back chasing the pigs before too long on the alvey gear

Cheers mate! Glad you enjoyed

Yeah the size of some of the schools down here have been ridiculous. Plenty of seals chasing them too and seems the great whites are chasing the seals - had two encounters with divers over the last month. Cheers Stevo

Cheers mate! You might be waiting a minute for that snapper. Been struggling to get them out of the boat and if I get one in can it would be my first for off the rocks! Will try and get the circle hook worm bait covered before too long too 👍🏼

Well that’s disappointing, hopefully that cursed they’re fishing for life. Glad you enjoyed the video though

Cheers mate! My drone is the DJI mini 4 pro. Very user friendly and yeah great for spotting fish or even doing a quick run down longer beaches to spot gutters

Cheers mate and I’m keen! Let me know when you’re in the area 👍🏼

Hey mate, I’m 20lb here and the beach is in the mimosa national park 👍🏼

Yeah got lucky with that school and the seal being where I chose that day. Bloody oath, easy to get a bit caught up in using the latest and greatest but the old gear can be a bit more special to use. Cheers!

@@anglinguntangled One of my favourite Alvey setups is a little old 3 or 4 inch diameter bakelite (?) reel with a big metal line guide loop attached, on a whippy old no-name 10 foot light blackfish rod. I use it for float fishing for mullet down Ulladulla way. Best fun you can have standing up.

Awesome mate, will make sure to get it out every once in a while. Cheers

Cheers Paul, I’ve used pool salt in salting baits before and it goes good, no different chemicals or what not to cooking salt that the fish pick up on. But most pool salt comes in coarse grain which might be a bit harder to dissolve. But it could work just as well, and I think some places have fine grained pool salt too. I got my salt from a whole foods place

Yeah I know what you mean. Bit of a different mentality with those styles of fishing I think

Yeah was very cool to see

Very hard to cast anything else on the shallow stuff

There you go, might have to try one out

Yep it’s a well renowned bass fishery at Glenbawn

Wish I had a better use for them but these go into the bin

@@anglinguntangled have you tried eating them ive had one and if you season them they taste pretty nice

Real nice little system that one. Yeah could be on the go with those to. Good to see starlo still making plenty of vids

leave this guy alone. the oceans are heaving with trawlers while most sports fishers stick to the coasts let alone the amounts caught. in the oceans your lonely fisher man isn't the enemy, there are much bigger fish to fry.

They fight hard and taste great why would you leave them alone

Dope.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Cheers mate, was a pretty red hot session. Don’t get many days where they are that schooled up. Half hitch is only around the bait never around the hook. Can create a weak point if around the hook shank

Cheers mate! Always good to hear the long videos are finding their audience

Cheers mate! Much appreciated. Yeah I’ve been meaning to give that a go for a while now but I’m always just getting fresh stuff before I head out. I reckon it would help a little bit but toadies teeth are so sharp they’ll still be ripping through it. I reckon it would be the go to salt it down if first if you were intending to freeze it though, might give it a go for a vid one day

@@anglinguntangled collected it this arvo and giving it a crack tomorrow morning

@@anglinguntangledmate it’s unreal salted, a lot firmer and stays on the hook really well. Went home with a feed 👍🏻

Hell yeah good to hear mate. I’ll have to give salting a go then, cheers!

Best way i found get a tray ,lay the cunje out and heaps of rock salt on top.drain the juice over 3 days approx and keep the juice to add into bread burley.

Cheers mate and not that I’m aware of

Yeah wasn’t expecting him but looked pretty good

No worries! Hope it gives you some luck

Cheers Stevo, yeah hard to beat a good session on chasing pigs. Yeah strange how the silver are so similar but no good. I thought it would be a flavour thing but apparently they’re just tough as. Got to get that Len Butterworth rod to you so I can get into the drummer on my alvey

No I think it is only mandatory in declared areas which look to cover most of the NSW coast but not all of it. www.nsw.gov.au/environment-land-and-water/coasts-waterways-and-marine/rock-fishing-lifejacket-law#:~:text=If%20you%20are%20fishing%20from,wherever%20you%20are%20rock%20fishing.

Interesting they haven’t included Kiama, been so many people drown there over the last 40years..

Yeah no idea what the rhyme or reasoning is to where they’ve chosen. The amount of people getting washed in at kiama is probably the reason the other councils enforce it!

So I was going to cover this in the video but never got around to using the prawns. It is illegal to use any prawns meant for human consumption for bait due to the risk of introducing white spot disease in NSW (and probably other states). Some reputable fisherman have shown off using raw supermarket prawns for bait on TH-cam, so it’s not taken very seriously. Im not saying this is reckless, I’ve no idea of how big this problem is, though you do hear occasionally of a white spot disease outbreak and it wrecking an areas prawn fishery. My thinking is that using cooked prawns poses no risk as the disease would not survive cooking, but I’m no scientist. Also, if you’ve never used it, cooked prawns fishes just as well as uncooked and it even a little bit tougher bait

@@anglinguntangled yes i dont use supermarket bought prawns in fact i dont even eat supermarket prawns i wont eat farmed shit or imported shit either local caught only from the co op or off the trawler. Yes i have tried cooked prawns when they are getting a bit long in the tooth for me to eat iam from N.S.W also

@@anglinguntangled Isn't this only true for imported green prawns though? I normally buy aussie banana prawns, and salt them up to make them more firm.

Cheers! Very fun session to film. The classic Viking hook, I’ll have to give them a go. I usually have better quality hooks with me but paid the price for thinking those ones would be good enough. I guess it was atleast a good demonstration of how strong drummer are

I thought you demonstrated a lot of important points really well: perfect pig territory and conditions, the right tackle, different baits and their pluses/minuses, burley techniques, keeper nets and that clever star sinker hack, the list goes on. A must watch video for people getting in to pig fishing or seasoned veterans. Great job.

Thank you very much mate, and you never know maybe one day!

Cheers George. I’ve been enjoying your vids too mate looking forward to the next one

Cheers Mark! Yes unfortunately I had to come up with that idea after a bag with a drummer and luderick got washed in on me one day. Poor fish, I can imagine they weren’t happy with their cell mates for some weird reason haha. Yeah they are always a treat to catch those silver drummer and pull just as hard if not harder.

Yep wouldn’t want any bigger swell than that and had my life jacket on

As far as I could tell it did not have a gill injury. It was hooked in the mouth and was a surprising amount of blood that came out removing the hook, but I’m certainly not pressing my thumb into its gills and am positive I didn’t injure them like this. If I had’ve kept this fish in a pool I guarantee it would’ve lived

Just eat it. While we can still go fishing.

Cheers Hayden! Yeah possibly, though I’ve found the best fishing is often done away from wharves. But still might happen in the future from one of the local ones down here
