Thank you so much! I spent a longgg time making this so that means a lot ☺️

Hahaha! onwards and upwards 😁

Thank you!! 🙏 The rod I'm using is a Zenaq Snipe 7 foot 6 RG model (the black rod) and a Millerods Beast Buster LM also 7 foot 6 (This is the rod with the blue camo grips) The list of all the rods I use is generally always in the video description if you're interested

Hey man! This was a 130mm OSP bent minnow :)

Yeah I agree! Only ever had a few take a bent minnow deep out of probably near 100 big fish caught on them! Thank you for the advice brother :)) And yeah the snipes are such an awesome rod! Thanks for watching legend 🤙

@@Pootuffy yeh boi 🫡

Thank you so much man! That means a lot 😁 I will try if I remember to, but I have many videos that I have already filmed and am editing, so it'll be quite a while before anything filmed past me seeing this will be out! But again, thank you for the kind words, plenty more videos on the way 🤙

@ your a legend man thank you for responding to my comment

Thank you so much dude! They're from BCF, just the Berkley rod racks :)

Thanks heaps bro, flatty master 👑🙇‍♂️

Was super fun! Thank you for watching :))

Yeah I think so too! I also use 20lbs for expensive lures haha! Yeah I had a bit of line twist, I take it out every couple session by towing the line behind the boat but hadn't done it in for a few sessions in this vid! Most of the twist is gone now 🤙 Thanks for watching!

​@Pootuffy Hey can someone explain line twist to me? Such as does it happen more to big bent minnow?

@@wayofenergy Line twist in braided fishing line occurs when the line rotates around itself, creating coils or tangles. Think of it literally like a raspberry twist lolly or something where the braided line has literally twisted over itself. Using a bent minnow lure increases the likelihood of line twist because these lures often spin or rotate unpredictably during the retrieve due to their irregular shape and darting action. This erratic movement rotates the line, especially if a swivel isn’t used, resulting in more twists over time. Swivels reduce line twist because instead of twisting the line, the lure will just rotate the swivel around which means the actual line won't get twisted as much.

@Pootuffy Great explanation thanks. So is it recommended to use snap swivel with bent minnows? How can I identify is i have line twist?

@@wayofenergy Hey mate. You only really get it with braid. Have a look how the line is sitting on your spool. You should be able to see up close if it has a twist in it.

if John sends some my way I'll be sure to make a film out of it! Spent too much on lures this year already

@ oh bro i could imagine, ill give you my ones

YESSS!! Lets goo, more vids coming soon 🤙

Thank you brother!!

Thank youuu, I'm glad you like it! Thanks for watching

Thank you legend! More on the way 🫡

Thank you so much dude! Means a lot

Haha he clearly did, went hard

Haha! Thank you for watching brother, more coming soon :)

Hey man, they're all listed in the video description! :)

Thats so nice to hear brother!! Thank you for the support, more vids coming soon :))

Thank you! 😊 It was a 175mm Duo Tide minnow in Prism Sardine colour I believe it's called! Good luck with the fishing, I hope you get some good ones!

Hey bro, I used a combination of 7/0 TT 1/4 ounce and 8/0 BKK jig head round elite 8/0 5 grams

Probably a duo tide minnow for shallows 0.5-1 metres deep and a Daiwa Double Clutch in anything over a metre, but only when there's not much weed in the water

Thank youuu!! The camera definitely makes a big difference, I'm so happy with it!! Plenty more coming soon 😁

Aye!! Thank you so much brother!! Hopefully we can go for a fish soon!! Thanks for watching legend💪

Yeah! no probs man 😄

Thanks heaps legend 🤙

I am really glad you said that, because that film style inspires me a lot! Thank you so much for watching 😊

@@Pootuffy your welcome loving your content it’s a relaxing thing to watch on the train home after a long days work. It’s great to see someone do something fresh when comes to presenting fishing content and it could bode well for your algorithm too if this becomes your aesthetic.

That means so much to hear you enjoy the videos :) I aim to stick to this sort of style moving forwards, they definitely take a bit longer to film and edit, but it's really fun and I'd rather put out better quality videos instead of making sure I'm constantly uploading. Another film should be out in the coming days, so stick around for that! Again, thank you for the support 😊

HAHAH well I'm very glad 😂 Thanks for watching brother

Cheers brother!

Hey man! Thank you so much 🤙 The leader I was using was 16lbs ocean fluorocarbon for the soft plastics and bent minnows and 18lbs Daiwa Fluorocarbon for the swim bait and Jerk Baits! Hope this helps :))

@ thank you heaps. I thought you would be using heavier to be honest because I have heard that 20 pound is a bit to light for big flathead

Flathead aren’t usually leader shy, so you can use leaders up to 30lb when throwing bigger lures without much trouble. That said, most people I know stick to 14-16lb unless they’re casting really big lures or fishing near structure. Personally, I can’t recall a time when a flathead has broken me off on 16lb or heavier leader. I’ve definitely lost a few fish on 12lb, but 16lb has held up reliably. There have been some close calls, though-I’ve seen some serious chafing on the leader after landing a big fish (you’ll see a good example of this in an upcoming video). Lately, I’ve been experimenting with 18lb and 20lb leaders, but I’m still convinced that 16lb is the sweet spot.

@ ok thank you so much I look forward to more videos

I cast as far as I can, probably 30-40 metres if the wind is right! and I get snagged A LOT!! Probably lose a couple lures every time I fish here

@ going there tomorrow

I think they were 1/8 ounce TT size 1. Bait would work but you would get snagged a lot

Thank you brother 💪

Very happy to be back! Plenty more on the way now 😁

Hahaha he's very happy to have a feature in the film, I don't know if you can hear, but he also showed the fish on FaceTime to the shopkeeper lady in the store he was in 😂

Thank you my brother! Glad you enjoyed, vids will be rolling out now 🤙

Dude that means so much to hear! I am very glad you clicked on this video too haha, I have plenty more on the way just like this so stick around for that! Thank you so much for watching 🫡

Hey Brodie! Keen to see you boys this summer! Hopefully there's some good fishing a head of us, keen to head out for a fish for you guys too! See you soon 🤙

Wow man that really means a lot to hear!! I have been very well thank you! Super keen to be back fishing, more films out veryyyy soon 🫡

@@Pootuffy Love to hear that man, im keen for more videos🤙

Thank you so much brother, glad you enjoyed 🫡
