Thank you. I’m not very familiar with Eppalock but I do know there is a fair population of yellas in there but they aren’t firing yet. I’ve just had a look at the report from Graham on the Social Fishing membership platform and it looks like they are yet to fire up with the water temps still down a bit.

@@DanWebberFishing thanks mate

Thanks mate, bit of a different style to this one for a bit of fun. Dillan and I have just learnt a new word 😂

Thanks mate, it’s always good trying new techniques and getting the boys into a fish

Hey Josh, thanks so much for the great comment, it means a lot to hear such positive feedback. It can be really hard working out the dams early on, especially if you don’t get the chance to fish them often. Burrinjuck is fishing great this spring but Windamere is far from easy atm, just spent a couple of days up there and had to really work for them. Keep at it mate, it will all come together. 🎣

You will be blown away by what you see and the different techniques you will be able to use. Thanks for the feedback and all the best with the new boat.

@@DanWebberFishing cheers mate. Sing out if you get down to Hume won’t you 👍

@@andrewsoutdoors1802no worries mate, will do.

I am right handed with a right hand wind, I cast left or right

@@DanWebberFishing thxs for your reply and help

Could you please give me some advice?

I have never fished the keys so I can’t give much advice on that, what I can say is because there isn’t any natural flow of water up there it wouldn’t be my first pick of spots and may be while your not finding many fish. Flow brings food. 4inch soft plastics in natural baitfish colours are a good flathead option. Go and see the guys at Barclays, they will hook you up.

@@DanWebberFishingI’ll be landbased fishing at Forster keys would a slim swim be good in motor oil colour at the keys?

@@jacksonwallis5501 yes they are a good option

Cause you don’t recommend Forster keys to catch flathead where could you recommend landbased in Forster where I would definitely be able to catch a flathead for dinner

Hey mate, thanks much appreciated. That sums up my channel spot on. 👍🎣

Great advice, unfortunately we get complacent sometimes and sometimes we pay for it

Yes mate Wallis lake at Forster-Tuncurry the twin towns.

Thank you

Thanks mate, great to hear you enjoyed it.

Thanks mate, appreciate it. 👌

Hi Dale, thank you.

It’s bound to happen now and then and usually makes for a good story, I told my boys don’t worry this happened so one of you can catch a big cod, unfortunately not to be this time but we had a great trip anyway. Did it bugger the session for you? I hope not. Thanks mate I sure will.

@@DanWebberFishing that’s it mate bound to happen, nah just a couple hrs but got it all sorted again!

That’s your opinion, thanks for sharing it

Always mate

Thanks Tony, it happens just have to make the best of it. I use forward for both but have started to use perspective a bit as well, but still learning that. I run 28 metres forward on the cod but will often pull it back to 20-24 on the yellas when fishing vertical A messy boat is a well used boat but yes probably needs a good clean after a big cod season.

How did you end up in the comp?

Thank you, that’s great to hear I changed it up a bit and put a bit more into the cinematic style and time around camp, I enjoy shooting and editing that way. We didn’t rank in the top 5 this year but not far off.

Thank you 🙌

No way, you’ll wash off all the cod juju

Absolutely every big fish is looked after and released, I love a feed of flathead something around 40cm is good for the table.

It is an amazing place that I have been visiting for 35 years, I have so many great memories from when I was a kid fishing up there with my Dad and Pop. It’s amazing to see the fishing is still great.

Thanks Adam, good to hear from you. 👍🎣

Thank you, that footage of my young bloke is incredible he was so happy to just be in the boat to see it happen. We will have to make another trip up now that they are getting a bit older and get them onto some big Barra of their own.

Thank you. It’s been a great season up there, water conditions are great and the big cod have taken advantage of the masses of food available. I have hours and hours of recordings, I guess I could put some edits together with some of it. Any light is unnatural especially on a dark night and so I try my best to keep light off the water as much as possible.

@DanWebberFishing yes conditions must be optimal for those sort of results!More livescope footage would be great.Navigation lights would be pretty unatural also,Can't remember what you have to have on when stationary.Maybe an infared camera could be the go to get that nightime footage.Keep up the good work.

Yes mate I do whenever it suits. Almost always on the vibes, soft or hard. They hook up and stay hooked up well and offer better snag resistance.

Thank you

We had a great Spring at Burrinjuck last year and this year should be good also but Windamere is a fantastic fishery with an awesome edge bite in spring

Worms are the best all year round but because they are always available but when spring comes around if you can catch some shrimp they are dynamite, small yabbies are also great bait in spring and summer

@@DanWebberFishing do the cod go for the yabbies?

@@fazza6777yes they do, just gotta make sure to release them during spring

@@DanWebberFishing thanks Dan. Loving your videos. Gunna try the dam with the kids the end of September/ early October. Does the dam fish well that time of the year?

Thank you. It really depends on the weather through spring and leading up to your trip. If we have a steady warming spring it can be great but if its a wet cool spring it often wont fire up until November. I usually find the upper Murrumbidgee arm fires first.

I definitely threw myself in the deep end here, I had very little experience on the fly before this trip. It is a beautiful river with some incredible fish, hopefully I will get back to fish it again one day. Thanks for Subbing John, greatly appreciated 🎣👍

Awesome Pricey, great to have you onboard. I hope you don’t mind me asking, how did you find the channel?

Hey Col, thanks for your message, it can get very noisy at times. Definitely keep it slow at night and plastics are definitely still a top option without the use of live tech. These fish are incredibly in tune to bait movements when they are feeding and can feel the paddle tail and body roll of the big plastics from many metres away well before they see them.

Thanks Pete, I hope all is well over there.

@DanWebberFishing unfortunately, we have been experiencing low rainfall, so our dams are extremely low . I'm heading over your way in November to fish from Copeton all the way up to the barra dams in southern Queensland some 5000 klms from me !

@@peter112999 I’ve heard it’s been very dry over there which is no good. That sounds a hell of a trip, you’ll have to let us know how it goes.

@DanWebberFishing a mate of mine moved to Queensland from WA and is involved in the barra stocking, so it will be interesting and exciting to fish with him . I will join up again as a paid member of Social Fishing as it's so informative , then I can report on the dams I visit!

@@peter112999 sounds awesome mate, look forward to hearing about your trip. We have a report writer for some of the southern QLD Barra dams as well now.

Thanks Josh, see you there.

Hey Matt, thank you. Yes I’m very big on scent. I use either S factor or the Berkley gel.

Thanks David, I generally do a lot more Vlog/ session vids on my personal channel as the stuff I do for Social Fishing is more education based, but I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks mate, should be a fun trip with the boys.

Cheers Grazza

Thanks Darryn, I’ll keep that in mind.

Thanks Andrew, it’s amazing tech. I almost forget to cast sometimes as I get so caught up in watching them do their thing.

Thank you mate, really appreciate the feedback. 👍🎣

Hey Dan quick question, I’ve been looking around for the exact Yamaha PFD you’re running in this video. I like and use the canvas style fabric built style. Pretty sure the only ones in stores are the polyester models. Where did you purchase yours? Thanks mate.

@@mylurebox I got them from Riverina Marine Centre in Wagga. I’m sure they’d be able to get you sorted.

Thank you mate. I’ve just gone looking and found em online. Been doing a fair bit of night fishing recently so having an auto inflate is probably a better option for me and my mates. I appreciate you getting back to me to help Dan. 👍

@@mylurebox too easy mate, I fish at night on my own a bit so it’s a bit of extra piece of mind, especially for my wife.

Thank you very much, it was a great trip. Hopefully I can get in a bit more before the end of the season.

Exactly mate, thank you 🎣

Cheers William, too right mate.

Thanks Colin, it was great to get out there and clear the mind and get into some great fish 🎣 👍

Keep trying, you’ll get one.

Good stuff

Interesting theory, I run the least amount of light as possible.
