    Spent my childhood from aged 9y.o. taking a 3.5M tinnie out from McCrae with my best mate Pete and we were aloud out to the second Pilots Mark which was about 500M of the beach in Port Phillip Bay about half way to the Chanel and in about 20M of water into of sand and we'd drift the sand base and know where the rocks and weed was. Fabulous fun that kids these days miss out on because or rules.

    Another great video Roger. Back to basics, which many fishos forget, but usually always produces fish. Poor Lozza...great net man though ðŸĪĢ. I also love your etiquette. Most boaties don't care about the land based fishos. Well done again and looking forward to your next content. Tight lines ✌ïļ

    Hi Roger, So a few beginner questions for you. My set up is a 7ft Rod, 2-4kg, 8lb braid, 10lb fluorocarbon leader. I'm land based fishing around Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. I've been using 2.5 inch SPs on a 1/6 or 1/8th jighead. Does the set up sound OK for Flathead? Thanks Evan

    Yep at Merricks and Flinders every time I've snorkel spearfishing the biggest Flathead are always in the first two metres of weedy water. It's always instantly shocking to become face to face with a 70cm female Flathead. Whoppers and where there is one there are more, 3 or 4 probably hunting pressing the minnows up against the shore and working as a team or predators first in best dressed.

    How not to loose the best taste of fish. Fish experience the struggle with the hook and line as natural behaviour. No stress occurs and no adrenalin is released. The moment the fish leaves the water, and is further kept in a box or a bag in the water, is the moment stress kicks in. Adrenaline starts being released into the bloodstream. The meat absorbs the adrenalin and it negatively changes the taste.
    What I do is to not keep the fish alive; I deprive it of It's life even before removing the hook. Thereafter I keep it in a cool place.
    Try this for yourself the easy way. Keep one alive in a fish box or bag in the water etc. Keep another one stress free as described above. When you fry them, compare the taste. It must be of the same species for obvious reasons.

    Hi Roger, long time watcher first time commenting. I actually have a couple of questions for you; 1st I have noticed you never caught a pinky on any of your videos, is it because of where you live? And 2nd, I live in western suburbs of Victoria and I only ever caught pinkies with pilchard is that normal or I am just unlucky to catch anything else with pilchard and similar bait fish? Thanks
