Nice fishing Steve you did well. Finesse tactics,head wind and judging by those clouds a change in barometric pressure coupled with cold water and still pulled some cracking fish.
Can't wait for this one. I've had a miserable time fishing these last few weeks. Barely any hits on the SPs, still only new to them so unsure if its the cold weather or me being clueless.
Nice one mate, some great fish there! Good to see you're still getting big fish down there, that one I caught with you is still my biggest bream by a mile.... :)
@StarloGetsReel scent really isn't "bait" though. It's not the primary attractant. It's not even really tangible, except for the bottle of it. A photo of your lure would show no "bait". In a way I hate those rules and regulations. I suppose because my dad was a Lawyer.
G'day Starlo. Really enjoyed that video. I'm heading up the coast to one of your favourite tassie north east coast estuaries soon! What knot do you use for light braid to leader?
@@jackmorris942 the softie is easy: an 80 or 100mm Squidgy Wriggler in Bloodworm! The hard-body is a bit tougher as it very much depends on water depth… and my favourites seem to change from season to season! That Atomic Crank I used in Part 1 of this Masterclass is deadly and versatile, as is the Jackall Chubby, but you’ll need both shallower running and deeper running hards to cover all options, as well as some surface lures (my current favourite is the Shimano Ligen) and some “critters” like Cranka Crabs and Muss’ Vibes… and so it begins… an ever-expanding collection! 🤣
Yep. Probably need two anglers fishing side by side for a good comparison. I fished both styles in Part 1, but put more time in with the hard bodies. Over the longer run and across a range of scenarios, I'd be backing the soft plastics. ;)
I haven't used a specific cheb rig with all the right bits and pieces, but it fishes very similarly to the sinker-in-the-loop-knot weedless rig that I've used a lot up north on barra and saratoga and a little down south on bass, etc. It's definitely something I'll be doing more of, with a video to come at some stage.
Hey starlo I’ve been luderick fishing latley 2 hook rig both weed one with sfactor and the sfactor has been out fishing natural weed.I was wondering your thorts on useing sfactor on the green weed fli.
@@redtobertshateshandles for sure, although probably better suited to vertical presentations in slightly deeper water. It’s a technique not used enough in Australia.
Great vid Starlo. I find the hit on a hard body generally harder.
For sure!
Starlo, still the squidgy king ! How is Bushy going ?
He’s going great and catching plenty of fish!
Thanks for sharing your wisdom Starlo.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching. 👍
Great tips Starlo
Cheers! 👍
Good stuff mate
Cheers! 👍
Great video Steve thankyou 👍🎣
Glad you enjoyed it!
starlo, bushy and rexy the aussie trifecta in fishing 👌
👍
Nice one Starlo. This would have been a great place to show off weedless soft plastics. Much better than a regular SP in weedy places.
True enough. 👍
Thanks mate, nice session. Cheers. Oh nice to hear of bushy doing well. Thanks mate.
@@raynewman4904 cheers!

Just magic country down there mate! Superb!
Excellent couple of vids on lure fishing top stuff Steve 👍🏻
Thanks for that. Yes, great part of the world but very cold at present!
SFactor = Starlo Factor. Superb work 👌

@@PeachyFlyFishing Thanks! we may even be able to improve on that if you get back down. 😉
@@StarloGetsReel 😁
Nice video Starlo i love the videos u have given me inspection to start my own channel
@@ArchFlickz Do it! 👍👍👍
@@StarloGetsReel I have I posted my first video the other day only caught a nice dsrt
Hey staro another great video, do u use scent for trout
Thanks! Yes I do, at least where I’m allowed to. Its legality in designated fly-and-lure only waters is a bit unclear, so I don’t use it in those.

G'day Starlo. Really enjoyed that video. I'm heading up the coast to one of your favourite tassie north east coast estuaries soon! What knot do you use for light braid to leader?
Sounds great! Good luck. My favourite connection knot is the FG, but I often fall back in the good ol’ Double Uni when out on the water.
Great video Starlo !
If you had to choose one soft plastic and one hardbody to catch a black bream , what would they be and what colour ?

@@StarloGetsReel Thanks for advice Starlo, and yes collection is ever growing !
Hey starlo you should do a part 3 where you do harbody vs softplastics on the same day in the same areas and see which one comes out on top🤙
Yep. Probably need two anglers fishing side by side for a good comparison. I fished both styles in Part 1, but put more time in with the hard bodies. Over the longer run and across a range of scenarios, I'd be backing the soft plastics. ;)
@@StarloGetsReel can’t beat a squidgy wriggler
@@catchandreleasefisbingnsw I agree!
Starlo, have you ever used a Cheb rig? I’ve mostly switched to Chen and Texas rigs over Ned heads and conventional jig heads
I haven't used a specific cheb rig with all the right bits and pieces, but it fishes very similarly to the sinker-in-the-loop-knot weedless rig that I've used a lot up north on barra and saratoga and a little down south on bass, etc. It's definitely something I'll be doing more of, with a video to come at some stage.
So is the subterfuge also available in a tube Starlo ? Nice work 👌
I wish! Unfortunately not. ;) Thanks for watching.
Starlo, I got a feeling you’re using epidemic sound? I used that first song on my channel too
Sure am! Love it. 👍
Hey starlo I’ve been luderick fishing latley 2 hook rig both weed one with sfactor and the sfactor has been out fishing natural weed.I was wondering your thorts on useing sfactor on the green weed fli.
Wow! That’s interesting. I rarely use it in natural baits but I’m definitely going to give that a try! 👍
Nothing settles the brain before bed like seeing starlo give us a masterclass, legend 🫡🍻
Thanks! 👍👍👍
Would "drop shotting" not be a tactic for the weedy area ??
The plastic would be whatever distance you want above the weed.
@@redtobertshateshandles for sure, although probably better suited to vertical presentations in slightly deeper water. It’s a technique not used enough in Australia.
@@StarloGetsReel I use it heaps for all our fish. Yebbly love it. Great for Luderick, funnily enough. I use it a lot on Burrill Lake.
