Biting midges are most active under calm conditions. They are most prevalent around dawn and dusk, but may continue to bite through the night and during overcast days. Biting midge commonly breed around the edge of water bodies, with the adult female laying her eggs in places like damp soil, moist decaying leaf material and muddy, sandy or vegetated substrates. Emergence of adult biting midge is associated with the new and full moon phases, especially for midge species breeding in (intertidal) coastal areas. The adults can live for several days to months depending on the species.
Epic session boys, full credit to you on how much hurt you can put on those tuna drop after drop. Those tuna are no joke, bet there were some sore muscles in the following days 💪😎
Wicked fishing, we used to chase the nth blues around the islands up here off Cardwell on 4-6kg mono 20 or so yrs ago and very rarely loose to sharks now just about impossible to to land any on any line as so many bloody sharks, only ones happy are tackle shops. Cheers
The videos you out together are great and thanks as I sit in a hospital bed I need the excitement. A few years back I captured a number of yellow eyed mullet here in NZ which is the same species as you have and identified their food sources as no one had done that before. Sand flies, kelp files and sand hoppers convert the cellose found in beach cast seaweed into protein. Protein is eventual for all species and at night as the tide moves into beach cast seaweed you will see a number of fish species feeding on the maggots of these species of fly's. Fly's are the beginning of the marine food chain and those who use seaweed on their gardens are impacting on marine life.
The purpose of samd flies is to remind you that you are not dreaming bro , otherwise there wouldn't be any proof that you aren't , because this vid is too dreamy. Absolutely outrageous experience m8 ✌️
Sandflies are frustrating, but they are important to the fields of medicine and anthropology. Only the females bite, but because they feed on blood they carry vast amounts of biological data from the area they habitate that studying them can unlock the secrets of the environment around them. If you want to be less appetising to the little vampires you can take vitamin b tablets a week or so leading up to your trip, and you can try adding aome eucalyptus oil into your rinse cycle with your clothing, the smell deters both sandflies and mosquitoes.
@PelagicPursuit89 in terms of their purpose in 'the grand scheme of things', they're pretty much just here to transfer pathogens between other life forms, and be eaten by amphibians, fish, and other small insect eating animals. Think of them as little virus couriers that look like a delicious fish taco to trout and frogs.
He talks about it in the “21” minute section of the vid. However, I’ve tried looking for it on Google and the rod, “Nomad Seacore All Around 40-65 Spin Rod” could not be found. Nomad does not have a Seacore Offshore spinning rod in 40-65 lb range. They do have a Seacore Slow Jigging rod 40-65 lb but that’s not what he was using.
Sand flies are a by product of politicians there just so annoying and they wont go away. they prey on the public and actually do nothing just take small bites of anything they can.. Anyway another great video. You should try up in Hills inlet as great looking structure up in there on high tide but as you know once your in there its a wait for the next high tide if you you dont get out quick. Great stuff and epic fights love it
And I like it very much. You are tired of catching fish. And then to the boatmen who pass by it. Exhilaration received and gone. Telling others to taste it too. Calling them too. You show them how to catch it and tell them to jig in the sea. You are a very nice person 😂😂😂😂
I have a diawa saltist 6000.....33 lbs drag , big line capacity and 48 inch per turn.......good for big pelagics jigging or do 8 need something heavier? Thanks from a traveling angler from Canada......2 weeks in St Lucia booked for January 👍
ChatGPT 3.5 What role do sandflies play in nature ChatGPT Sandflies play a role in nature primarily as both prey and predators. As larvae, they feed on organic matter in soil, contributing to nutrient cycling. As adults, they serve as prey for various insectivorous animals and birds, helping to sustain those populations. Additionally, some species of sandflies are predators of other small insects, helping to regulate their populations in ecosystems.
Sand flies exist on Earth primarily due to two reasons: Suitable Environment: Sand flies thrive in warm, humid environments with moist soil. These conditions allow them to breed and lay their eggs in damp places near decaying organic matter, which their larvae feed on. This makes tropical and subtropical regions ideal for sand flies, but they can also be found in temperate areas with similar conditions. Sand flies can be a nuisance with their bites, they also play a role in the ecosystem as decomposers (through their larvae) and as part of the food chain for some predators. The End. and I hate them too lol
If Sand Flies are anything like the Horse Flies we have in Texas, I can only presume they are good for a hellacious bite, and to carry off small animals and children.
Sandflies are biting midges or noseeums. Though I guess most of what you mention is also true, it would be a cloud to carry anything in particular away. We have horse flies, but they are called march flies, especially here in QLD.
A Sandflys purpose is to suck literally. keeping away the weakest of souls. leaving my islands uninhabitable but for me to camp n more fish for me to catch thats the purpose of sandflys gotta love em
I jigging for my family to buy a foods everyday, but I'm using diy jig because the price of jig in our place is very high I can't afford the price, I am looking someone to who a good heart to give me a jig that is my wish 🙏
like you very much. It is quite a surprise that you are playing catch with the fish. I don't have such a good reel like you. You can see my channel in this account. I am a poor person from Kerala in India. You won't get here for a penny with a local fish rod and a fish reel. A lot of money is worth paying here. I had to get an 8000 model Salt water spinning reel. It was enough to get the daiwa aird. Give your channel giveaway that way. Kerala and India have a huge TH-cam audience that you don't know about. If you give me a giveaway and put the video on your channel. 10 million subscribers in India may have been received. I will also post a video. It would be nice if you could courier it.
Best TH-cam fishing channel out there and you are definitely underrated.
Definitely in the top 5.
Some really nice photography in this one Matt, not to mention some fantastic fishing.
Matthew, another cinematic masterpiece of epic proportions.
Another great episode. Can't wait for the next two to see how the trip finishes.Your editing is top shelf. Cheers
Whoop whoop! Such an epic and sweet trip that will be remembered forever by you guys!
another beautiful place.never gets old.thanks you and some nice fish there

but what's their purpose in life other than to bite hahaha
@@PelagicPursuit89 just like mossies, the females need protien from the blood to be able to breed

No such thing as midgies only sandflys 😅
A definition of a Sandflys purpose is they suck.. literally 🤬

Avesome. What boat are you guys using.
Epic! My bucket list trip!!!
Question about the rod reel line combo?? Could you tell me more?

I still feel like they could disappear and not have too much effect on things haha
@@PelagicPursuit89 I totally agree 👍
It was awesome to see you once again helping people (in the big boat) to get onto the fish. A true gentleman!
