I just love a young man like this talking about "back when I was a kid". I'm not being mean, I remember those days pretty well myself. The terrifying part is how fast the years go once you get out of school and such. Good onya Josh!
Replacement arrived!By the way, I did forget to mention that the original lure did have a decent strike however as most anglers will attest you can get a hit th-cam.com/users/postUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 and fish will hang on and release lure. I used the replacement lure yesterday and ran thru a Shimano Waxwing, Kastmaster, Bobber (set to sink). I found the does run deep (I casting on the flats 3.5'). Make sure you adjust your rate of retrieve and rod tip angle (up) to prevent getting snagged on bottom. Used it a couple of times and action was very lifelike (looked like local bait fish for trevally), craftsmanship very good....however eyeball fell out. I asked for replacement and it is on it's way! It was very easy to change out treble to single inline hook.
G’day Josh, what a great challenge mate. I’ve done similar myself years ago when I first started fishing with lures and results were very similar to yours. I do love using lures. Great video mate, keep them coming.
Another fantastic video Josh! Nice concept of bait vs plastic. I'd expect the live bait in particular to outfish the plastic, but personally prefer using the plastic due to ease of availability and not having to preserve the livies. Actually, I'd be happy just to go fishing again now that restrictions are being eased........yipee!!
Yeah I had a couple people suggest doing a bait vs lure challenge. So I thought I’d make it happen ;). And I also like you said prefer how much more convenient lure fishing is. Just pack your stuff in the car and go. No worry about getting your bait and what not
Josh, stumbled across this video quite by accident, so glad I did. Love the cinematography, commentary and overall ethos. I think you're going g to go far, I hope my sub contributes to your future success.
Hey Josh, I fish bottom in Alaska If I need to put my rod down by choice or otherwise, I have a leash about 3 foot long with a clip to hook into the rod eye, tying the rod down. It prevents any rod loss. Anything worse than losing a big'un is to lose your gear too.
been waiting for some bait in a while now! though your vids actually made me get back to trying lures again lol👍 btw at 4:18 all that stuff on the ground is samphire- you can eat it and its really good if you want to do catch and cook
Amazing yet again love your challenge videos. I know I have asked in a previous video but any chance of a light tackle talk and lures u use light tackle fishing and medium set-ups
@@joshdfishing yeah would be interesting but I think allot of people would like to see your main 10 rods and reel combos and what lb line is on them and what u use them for and the lures u use with that set-up yewww
forget briggsy and hitzke and nev or gido i look forward to your videos now much respect to you, keep it up and watch out for snakes now its warming up, just saw that you are aware of snakes keep looking
Farkkk man what a legend🤙🏼🔥 and yeah I’m gonna get a snake bandage thingy for bass fishing. When I’ll be doing treks in the bush. Better too be safe than sorry aye
Josh, a great way to spend a day - as you said the big problem with bait fishing is the inhaling of the hook making a release really difficult. I have been using Gamakatsu Shiner hooks - mainly size 2 and 2/0 - and have found that not only are they a great shape for baiting with yabbies but the shape of the hook has resulted in better than 90 per cent of the time hooking either in the corner of the mouth or through the bottom jaw. The are easily removed and make for little harm and an easy release.
Ive swapped predominantly to circle hooks for the same reason, too many fish hooked in the guts and I like to release all mine. Great vid mate, keep em coming
Yeah I’ve had a couple people tell me to use circle hooks. But at the same time if they get swallowed they do even more damage then the hooks that I was using do.
@@joshdfishing The main issue with circle hooks is finding one that's designed well (or correctly) and getting as close as you can to the size that's just right for what you're targeting. Its made even more of a pain due to the fact that there is no size standard. A #4 in one brand can be a #8 in another. Sometimes that #4 can be physically the same size as a different brand's #2 on the other end.
Hi Josh,hope you didn't have too much back or hammy pain next day after pumping them yabbies,my question,I noticed you didnt have a swivel on the bait set up and just had running sinker to hook, what's the reason for this please?also did you try putting the live yabbie on a jig head?
Gday Shannon. I was lucky enough to have no muscle pain the next day🤣 and I used a running sinker because I was lazy hahah. I usually would use a swivel but yeah. Got lazy with it.
Great session mate! Gotta say though, big difference between live yabbies and frozen prawns from the servo though 😅 That was a nice flattie on the plastic too 👌
Great video mate. Can you tell me what area you are fishing? I would like to find somewhere to fish where there are no people because most of the places I go to fish, every man, child and their dog are there. Thankyou
That hook's a Straight Shank J hook, if you still read old comments. Also this blew my mind a bit, forst you said "used to come here when I was a kid" and I was thinking "that's funny, like a 14 year old lad talking about when he was a kid." Then you got in your car and I had to tell myself "sit down Dog, before you say something else stupid."
hey josh, I’ve been getting really unlucky with the flatfellas but coming into warmer months I think I’ll get a couple more, what would be ur best and most reliable lures for them. Also congrats on 2k subs 🥳
Hi Josh I am wondering if you could tell me what the program is that you use for Tide and weather is you showed in this Video. Keep on fishing like your vids you do. Kim
Hi Mate, re the Petrol Station Lures, you can sharpen the hooks with Diamond coated Needle File, a set of 8 in a plastic wallet is around 9 or £10 GBP. Or buy a small pocket size sharpening stone!!
Josh do you think using a plastic in a lighter colour it might have been a better result for the plastic or a motor oil colour But that was such a great challenge Thanks .👍
More than likely. You can’t go wrong with the motor oil plastics. I wanted to use a yabbie lure since I was using a yabbie as bait. Tried to keep it as similar as possible👌🏼
"Takes me back to my childhood roots..." c'mon Josh, you still have a few years left in ya yet mate... 🙄😂 This kids channel is gonna blow up !! Josh, if its not too rude, I'm wondering how old you are ... you drive so yer not 14.... 😏 Regardless, you know how to fish mate .. 🤗 From the Emerald Isle 😎👍☘️🍺
Another excellent video. Well done. Bait has some benefits over lures obviously it’s natural. But you can get pestered by rubbish fish example toads A well worked lure rarely gets rubbish fish. I recently to my surprise caught a flounder on soft plastic he also in hailed it deep , After removing the plastic he was not too good but after about 20 minutes he swam away. How did you flounder recover ?
Yeah that’s another thing aye. With lures your really cutting out the amount of little fish catch. But with bait you can catch anything of any size :( and yeah if I’m gonna be completely honest. I got caught up in everything and forgot about the flounder ahah I landed a flatty right near him and he wasn’t there. So I’m gonna guess it swam off🤷

Another top vid Josho.... I find bait you will always catch heaps but not many of good size and with lures mainly of top size but maybe not as many🤙
A bit of prawn from the gas station gets a good brim Josh. Where do you fish in this video??
Good auditing of the video - well done. How does a young man like you has money for "stradic" reel :), Good stuff.
G’day Josh, what a great challenge mate. I’ve done similar myself years ago when I first started fishing with lures and results were very similar to yours. I do love using lures. Great video mate, keep them coming.
Is it just me or like who else has watched this video like 30 times 😂❤
Me

Your videos are always amazing to watch mate.
I havnt used bait in years, but this made me excited for it again
Appreciate it mate🤘🏼
Mate first time ive seen one of your vids, excellent presentation and camera work, loved it and hope to see more, your a natural.
Thanks matey
Good work Josh,love your presentation mate, your new subscriber numbers will climbing fast.
Haha thanks John mate🤙🏼
Josh, stumbled across this video quite by accident, so glad I did. Love the cinematography, commentary and overall ethos. I think you're going g to go far, I hope my sub contributes to your future success.
Great vid. Tell us more about the apps you are using and how you interpret them?
Hey josh, you probably won’t see this but what fishing apps do you use I haven’t been able to find a useful one. Hope you blow up soon thx😊.
Love that you keep the tags and dispose of them properly. Great role model mate
I try my best😅👍🏼
Hey Josh,
I fish bottom in Alaska
If I need to put my rod down by choice or otherwise, I have a leash about 3 foot long with a clip to hook into the rod eye, tying the rod down.
It prevents any rod loss.
Anything worse than losing a big'un is to lose your gear too.
Wouldn’t be a Josh d vid without a stingray
Good vid mate, good job keeping the content interesting and congrats on 2k🤙
Thanks mate😁

btw at 4:18 all that stuff on the ground is samphire- you can eat it and its really good if you want to do catch and cook
Yeah had quite a lot people asking me to use bait. I’m not much of a fan of bait but hey. It’s good to mix things up👍🏼
Great video. This channel will blow up. Keep up the good work.
Hahah maybe one day mate :)
Amazing yet again love your challenge videos. I know I have asked in a previous video but any chance of a light tackle talk and lures u use light tackle fishing and medium set-ups
I might do that as a short vid because I’ve had so many people ask. I might do it when I get myself a bait caster setup for bass👌🏼
So I have a nice amount of gear that will be interesting to talk about cause the gear is all used for different circumstances
@@joshdfishing yeah would be interesting but I think allot of people would like to see your main 10 rods and reel combos and what lb line is on them and what u use them for and the lures u use with that set-up yewww
Cool video mate I always use yabbies caught lots on them

You’re so good at fishing I got to go in to fishing comps I caught nine flathead and one brim

So good, awesome watch mate… keep producing the goods love to see some new challenges in the next videos comin!!
Thanks micky micksta😸
Great video mate. Can you tell me what area you are fishing? I would like to find somewhere to fish where there are no people because most of the places I go to fish, every man, child and their dog are there. Thankyou
G'day josh, was wondering what app gave you all of those statistics like the fish activity?
that yabbie is GEOne!!!
Hell yea josh. Awesome vid bro loved it 👍🏽👍🏽

@@joshdfishing most of us enjoying ur vids. So yeah these are good vids. We have our support!
@@maqpeezgofishvlog8431 ❤️
First time ever seeing Josh use bait
Hahah and probably the last. Nah idk I might make more bait vids in the future. I just find bait fishing boring
Bro I thought he was like 14 but then he started driving😂
New friend from palawan philippines full support all done!
Yew yew yewwww thanks mate🤙🏼🤙🏼
Oh U must be in NSW AUSTRALIA I love yabbys!!!
Yes nsw
I've got two of those Tempesta VXS rods. 6'6 ultra light and 7'0 ultra light, both with 2000 sized Daiwa reels. Great little rods for the price.
Yeah they are good rod in my opinion. It was my first proper lure fishing rod and I’ve pulled in some bigggg flathead on that setup👌🏼 works a treat
Love your videos. What is the first fish activity app you are using? I do not know that one and it looks interesting.
Thanks mate :) and the app is called fishing points
nice video mate i havent pumped nippers in a hot minute. Out of curiosity what app are you using to indicate fish activity?
Pumping those yabbies really took me back to my roots 10-12 years ago pumping them with my pop
Oh and the app is called fishing points👍🏼
How did the flounder go? Great vid mate!
What site or app did you use about the fish activity? Good vids btw , very inspiring
Hello, Cheers from Brazil, really enjoying your videos, can tell all this apps u showed to look at the air pressure, ty
"Back to childhood roots" So you were there yesterday? lol
Josh so good he has more likes than views
🤣❤️
Great fun video,

Great video and awesome spot. 💯
Thanks mate😁
Where do you fish, I am looking for Pointers, thanks Scotty.
yesss!! u listened to my idea, solid vid Josh!
Sure did👌🏼
Some nice yabbies and catchs
hey josh, I’ve been getting really unlucky with the flatfellas but coming into warmer months I think I’ll get a couple more, what would be ur best and most reliable lures for them. Also congrats on 2k subs 🥳
Hey Jimmy. I would highly recommend the zman 3 inch minnows in any colour. And the daiwa double clutch 95mm also works very very well👍🏼
Never checked the flounder, still awesome video
hey man, great video. what app were you using?
You're pretty good Josh. Keep it up and just be yourself.
Hey josh what’s that app your using to see the bites?
Great vids Josh, what apps are you using in this vid, thanks in advance
Cheers mate. I use fishing points, fishing times, and berometer👍🏼
Hi Josh I am wondering if you could tell me what the program is that you use for Tide and weather is you showed in this Video. Keep on fishing like your vids you do. Kim
Cheers Kim. Well for tide and weather I use wily weather. But for fishing times I use the app fishing points👍🏼
Hey Josh what type of fishing glasses do you recommend for young teens?
Hey mate what are the App's that you use?
Good videos BTW
Cheers pieter🙌🏼 I use fishing points, fishing times, and berometer
Interesting challenge! Did you work the lure or was it just sitting on the bottom like a bait?
Nah worked the lure while the bait just say there
great vid, whats the name of the App you are using
Awesome josh. Great video as always!
Cheers ma dude🤘🏼
Bro I’m happy to say that one day your gonna be big and you will on your channel
By the way great video I love your content
what is the app u were using to check the fishing activitiy ?
Hey mate no hate but why don’t you tighten your drag when fighting your fish and why so light (no hate just seen a lot of people doing it lately)
love the content mate keep it up but i have a question how old are you if you don’t mind me asking
so sick josh
Thanks mate :)
Hi josh i was wondering what app you use for the best fishing times
Hey mate I use fishing points as my top app. It’s super accurate👌🏼
Hi Mate, re the Petrol Station Lures, you can sharpen the hooks with Diamond coated Needle File, a set of 8 in a plastic wallet is around 9 or £10 GBP. Or buy a small pocket size sharpening stone!!
what happened to the flounder you caught earlier
What fishing apps do you use (the first one you were looking at)
It’s called fishing points
Keep up the good work! Love your videos. What’s the location of this fishing point Josh?
In my experience with yabbies I often found the ones with bigger nippers get attacked more by the fish.
Good stuff mate!
Cheers dude😄❤️
Would love to go fishing here where abouts is this place
Nice work what apps do you use or recommend
I use fishing points, fishing times and berometer
Josh do you think using a plastic in a lighter colour it might have been a better result for the plastic or a motor oil colour But that was such a great challenge Thanks .👍
More than likely. You can’t go wrong with the motor oil plastics. I wanted to use a yabbie lure since I was using a yabbie as bait. Tried to keep it as similar as possible👌🏼
depends what fish too, salmon lures win for sure. ive seen people catch FA on bait then i come along and clean up on lure.
Mad videos🤙🤙
Do you have a boat or a kayak you ever fish out of mate?
Yeah boat and kayak. Check out some of my other vids. Got a couple in the bait and yak
Total chaos 😁
I reckon😅🤣
Is this in Sydney?
Hey mate what apps where those. Cheers
Did the flounder survive?
Well I’m gonna assume so because when I got back to that corner it was gone
"Takes me back to my childhood roots..." c'mon Josh, you still have a few years left in ya yet mate... 🙄😂
