  • Days spent sight-fishing on the warm, shallow tropical flats with a fly rod in hand don't come too much better than this one. Join me as Jono Shales of Exmouth Fly Fishing shares the sort of action that has made this special corner of the world a Mecca for footloose fishos.

    A good fly fisherman is only as good as the fly they tie!
    Extremely successful fly you have there mate! Would you share a picture please Starlo 😃

    All hail "The King of Queenies"! My complexion turned green watching this, a big dose of jealousy.....the perfect fishing trip. Great stuff.

    What a beautiful location mate. That queen fish was HUGE…..I have never tried a fly rod set up but… holy hell, that is a beautiful way to fish.
    The second fish was all mouth…how heavy is your line ?
    Screaming reels is always a great session Starlo.
    That Herring was insane and didn’t want to come to the boat at all.
    Well done mate.
    You have sooooo much fun when you wet a line.
    I love it .
    All the best my friend.😂

      Thanks! Yes, it was a memorable day in a very special part of the world. In answer to your question, I was running a 20 pound tippet. 👍

    I remember Rod Harrison catching a huge trevally on a fly rod years ago. I think it went for over an hour he was really under the pump. It was right up there with your Meritorious captures of trevs, herring and queenies on fly in this video.

    Congratulations and well done! that was a great video and enjoyable to watch. The Queenie battle reminded me of a king mackerel fight with those blistering runs. I'm from south Florida and we have lady fish as well just not of that size. We call them "poor man's tarpon" b/c they fight just as good but don't get as large as our tarpon. They do make great tarpon & snook bait for the conventional tackle guys. We even catch lady fish in fresh water rivers & lakes that feed into the bays and estuaries. Q? - Can you comment specifically on your setup including line & leader configuration? Thanks again. ~ Jim B

      Thanks for that great feedback, Jake! I was running a 9-weight G.Loomis fly rod with am intermediate WF9 line. Cheers!

    Gee really enjoyed that one Starlo. That world record one you got here was a monster. I got a nice queenie last week I fried some in egg and breadcrumbs and made numas with some it was lovely 😊

    Can you land base fly fishing in Exmouth ? I have a friends wedding up that way and was going to pack the 8wt and go for a walk along the beach ?

    What a day! Can you please tell me the latin name of the 3rd fish? What a fish! Thanks

    • @StarloGetsReel
      @StarloGetsReel  19 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Cheers! It's Elops machnata. The same or very similar fish that's known as a ladyfish or ten pounder (in the USA) or a springer in South Africa.
