I just closed my eyes, headphones in and raised the volume for the drag that whole fight

[@EthanYeo1]

Damn would've loved to see what exactly you hooked!!

[@danieltodd22]

Lots of morings around that jetty to get tangled in

[@gerrychauveau2925]

Enjoyed it. I have seen big snapper caught on this jetty. 😊

[@dpfishing46]

Awesome Video Alex!

[@robdogsfishin3114]

Hello declan

[@mrloveseat2863]

Fish off that jetty all the time! Seen blokes catch tiger sharks off there too, was a crazy experience but they are such a beautiful shark. Will never forget that night

[@damianlarsen3672]

The Rockingham jetty has changed a lot since I use to visit in the 80's. Great video again

[@baselhassoun3502]

I live next to there and always fish there ! Pretty sure you hooked up to our lovely mate we call a car bonnet, big black ray that’s legitimately bigger than a car bonnet ! Some od sharks there tho

[@BiggestOrse]

[@johnsimo4470]

@@BiggestOrse that’s at port Macdonnell

[@bl4de1977]

That was just awesome Alex loved the sound of the reel going off

[@kmhfishing8359]

Bummer you didn't get a shark, but I wouldnt complain to get a few rays! Great fun!

[@macmacca659]

[@BasicFishingNZ]

[@hoodlumhunter]

[@codysaunders1205]

[@alexsss79]

[@chrishartanto4119]

Wicked video bud. Come back soon, hopefully i can get you on a land based snapper or a white spot 😁

[@isaxc476]

Bro such a cool video and nice fish

[@robdogsfishin3114]

Bit of a shame all your hard work didn't amount to what you were after. Hearing that drag go is half of the fun though. Great video mate 👍

[@michaelschulz43]

longer leader & heavier gear mate.. the big eagle rays are a problem, but you can put the hurt on a small to medium shark early & not get dusted on the obstacles. Keep up the good work, thanks Alex

[@Alexsfishin]

Thanks mate. Wish I had the gear with me. Only limited to what I had as I wasn't really expecting anything huge until I spoke to locals.

[@liangevan4007]

Did u left the plastic sink to the bottom ? Or just about floating ?

[@aquaticaddictions9902]

That was a big gray ray

[@adamsrcsandadventure700]

Stinking rays 🎣👍

[@Drew9]

What rig did you use with the live herring on it?

[@JMFMadmates]

Ohhhhh, so sick 👍🤟

[@seanodard8974]

The way that thing is fighting in the first first hook up doesn’t seem like a ray but if it was it doesn’t seem to be like them big black ones you get there

[@lmp8932]

Did the night Heron get that fish down?! Shame about the bust offs. I'm happy to see you put the fish you weren't targeting back :)

[@Alexsfishin]

In the end it didn't. But I managed to cut a bit off for it. :)

[@DoomiePookie]

Hey alex do u use a external mic with your go pro? Thanks.

[@finnparr3472]

Should've fished the smaller jetty to the right it's deeper there and there's less moorings

[@austinsfishing8455]

90% sure they were eagle rays fished the area a bit and provided heaps off them

[@paulamontroy5241]

Hi Alex what’s the best soft plastic for salmon trout?

[@Alexsfishin]

I like the Zman slim swimz in 2.5" or 3" in Opening Night colour.

[@tntbossthrone1062]

imagane if hooked a massive tuna
that would be awsome

[@BiggestOrse]

yeh theres one local stingray thats easy 200kg bigger than my car lol they call him henry or the car bonnet

[@BiggestOrse]

i recon hes 300kg

[@danieltodd22]

So many bust off's

[@waterlife9441]
