- The BEST session I have had at Long Reef by far!
I did the 40km trip from Botany to Long Reef. It's a fairly quick and exciting drive in good conditions. Highly recommend. ELKAT Striker Gang hooks never fail.
Want to use what I use?
Sure, I make the #HalfPilly rig for all my friends and you can get them below:

Gotta love the wind hum through taught lines- oh the memories
Best sound, that and drag 😍
So Stoked For You Catching That Samson! I’ve been targeting them for years off the stones without success, thanks Mel for taking us onboard with you:) epic session!
You are most welcome! That’s the 3rd Samson I have got in 3 years! They are very rare. Hopefully you get yours soon!
Great Trag Mel, I’m jealous. Blade N Tails 7ft one piece best snapper rods. All my snapper outfits are Blade N Tails. Another great session Mel.
Living the dream. 😊
Excellent mel

Thank you
Happy Days...
nice little mission. Your Haines is a beast!
Thanks Lochie it’s an epic boat ♥️
Congrats on the samsonfish. Those things pull almost everything backwards
100%
Great video one of your best
Thank you Dan!
Those Samsons weight for weight can pull a kingy backwards…. And better eating.
Massive effort mate, your smashing it 💥
Got me off guard big time it was epic to see it come in off Sydney 💪🏽🔥
@@spikesfishing i used to get em off Forster in 40 mtrs mid 90’s.
We used homemade stainless or copper jigs.
5kg Samson would pull like a 10kg king, but heaps better on the plate.
Keep going mate, get amongst em. 💪
@@spikesfishing PS: the Squid are on bigtime
awesome session as usual Mel
Thank you ♥️
This, is probably the only channel with long videos, that I watch all the way through. Good on ya mate! Love your content as usual. You're the Queen of the pilly. Last week I've been fishing from the beach, and I tho I can try the "Spikes Half Pilly". Didn't go too good, but just when I was getting my rod off the beach to leave, I caught one of my best flatty. That was yours lol even tho, I was the one eaten it 😂
Thank you that’s epic to hear you got an awesome flatty on the #halfpilly rig!! I have never used them from land send me pics if you would me to use in my website!
@@spikesfishing the rig was a different one tho. I need to check if I had it on a paternoster single hooked or what.
Wow, I would love to come and fish with you, we can follow you and fish together. My son adores watching you catch fish
Always happy for you to follow me out! We can meet at the ramp and take it from there 😊
✔😊 👍🌹 stay safe great job .
Thank you Dave will do 😍
Hey Mel are those elkats 5/0 or 7/0?
5/0
I wanna come fishing :((((
I so want to go back there one day 🔥
Is this off Long Reef?
Yeah kind of but like 6-8km from land
Mel can you tell us the difference with a trag fish and a jewie they look the same
the tail is pointing in, a jewfish points out
The Tail and also a Jewie’s beautiful lateral line is unmistakable.
@@danielthiele2740 are the scales similar
Yellow mouth and different tail. The Jew are a beautiful silver shine too and trag are duller
@@spikesfishing Mel if you can do a video explaining this you will be the first on TH-cam. Please 🙏 do this for us to know
Awesome.. how did you catch anytime?
What do you mean
@@spikesfishing how can you always catch fish well?
@@Park-pj8zw a lot of practice and learning all the time!
