HOW-TO Be A Better Wharf & Jetty Fisher (Just Like Shroom - The Mr Beast of Sydney Fishing!)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- Starlo joins TH-cam superstar Shroom to visit one of Sydney Harbour's most popular and productive land-based fishing structures: Clifton Gardens Wharf, on Chowder Bay in Mosman. In an action-packed morning, Steve learns plenty from the little master, and shares a few sneaky tricks of his own along the way. Watching this one will definitely make you a better and more successful "jetty rat"!

I can't believe I missed the premiere but I am here now. Great video Starlo! What a day, 4 seasons and more! That was literally a wet season rain period. I was really happy when you caught those quality bream, the best fish I saw from that wharf all day 😎👍
Thanks mate! It was so good to finally catch up and have a fish together! I just wish the bonito had busted up... next time!
@@StarloGetsReel It was my pleasure Starlo and next time we will get some reels singing!
I still enjoy watching you after all these years. I credit you, Rex and Bushy with reinvigorating the recreational fishing industry back in the 90's by putting it out there on the small screen. All my kids grew up watching you guys weekly and still enjoy their fishing.
Thanks so much, boomer bob! It's hard to keep an old fisho down! ;)
Sweet live bait.
Your good to fish with starlo.
Steve was always a gentleman and still is to this day. This was great to watch.
Thanks so much for that, JustNik! Glad you enjoyed it. 👍
Starlo 101 can,t beat it
Thanks mate!
Great Video Starlo! And good to see you're still at it!
Unfortunately I've only just discovered your channel....
I grew up watching yourself, Rex and Bushy on TV in the 90s, and can't help but feel some nostalgia seeing you on the screen again.
I've always liked your knowledge sharing style of presentation (rather than the short lived entertainment style dominating TH-cam nowadays), and it's people like yourself who really helped me become a lifelong fisherman - especially back then when we didn't have the internet.
And good job getting Clifton all to yourselves, I've been fishing that place a lot lately and it's always packed. The fishermen there always seem to be well behaved like you mentioned.
Hey C M, I'm so glad you've found my channel! I really hope you take the time to have a look through it and watch a few of the earlier vids. I have some ambitious plans for the future, too! And yes, we were very lucky to have that wharf to ourselves, even if only for an hour! But they're a good crew who fish it, that's for sure. I learnt plenty watching them... and @Shroom, of course! Anyway, thanks again for your terrific feedback and Tight Lines!
G'day to you both, I grew up fishing the jetties around Adelaide and 40 years later I still love walking the planks. Tight lines cheers Tom
Good stuff, Thomas!
watched thousands of fishing videos. BY FAR, this is one of the most entertaining and relaxing to watch. Goon on ya Starlo, much respect. A genuine Aussie, makes me proud
Glad you enjoyed it! And thanks SO much for your comment.
Thanks TH-cam algorithm for recommending this. I'm subbed to shroom but I'm a rex fan as a kid. Plus you look like my old man Starlo
Good to have you on board, 5wisher!
Just caught up on this one, classic Starlo and Shroom, nice!
Thanks! 👍
Two legends meet✌️
Thanks!
Awesome fishing 🎣 video. Thank you master Starlo. 🙏
Thank YOU, Heng!
Great video! I've fished Clifton since 2005 when it wasnt as well known or had such high fishing pressure as it is today... back then, the morning trevally (sizes up to 60cm) bite was a highlight... breams were also quite abundant when fished unweighted... the sandy area on the left facing the wharf has flatties fairly frequently... the stretch where you casted the swimbait is where cuttlefish and leatherjackets usually hang out...
Cool! It's a great spot.
Great session... Great video... Great moments... The rod that almost got away. Good job guys.
Thanks!
Love your narrative style of videos Starlo.
Glad you like them! Thanks, Jameel.
Full of action off the wharf. That bird nearly costing Shroom his rod put a smile to the face that it all turned out good. I spent so much time as a kid fishing Burnie & Stanley wharfs it's just a pity my kids won't have that as Burnie is no entry and the mighty Stanley has been left to rot away with no money to fix this iconic fishing spot.

Thanks Tazzie... yes he came SO close to losing that outfit!
As a youth in New Zealand I spent a lot of my spare time jetty fishing, always great fun and rewarding when the big one is caught.
Thanks for the feedback! Some great jetties in NZ. I have very fond memories of catching snapper etc from the jetty in Parengarenga Harbour many, many moons ago. 👍
No brainer and I love fishing stRlo
love how determined on filming shroom is hahah good man!
He's a ripper!
As I've watched this already on Shrooms channel interesting to see the same trip from a different perspective
Yes, good to see the different angles!
Shroom is more natural. I dunno why Starlo has to sound so weird.
Great Colab Starlo and awesome to see you in old Sydney town fishing one of my favourite piers with Shroom. I too stumbled on the effectiveness of the baited jig head some time ago and use it all the time now. 👌 👌 👌
Great feedback Peter! Thanks!
Great video Starlo and Shroom. That's one of my favourite fishing spots. Loved your idea of baiting the jig head with a yakka strip. Might help land more flatties when not using a long shanked hook.
Thanks for that great feedback! Yes, the bait on a jig head works really well. Give it a crack.
Fantastic to see my favourite fisho fishing on my favourite warf. I've been fishing Clifton gardens for last 40 years. Great video good on you guys🙏🙏❤️❤️
Thanks mate! Great wharf that one! I’d never been there before that day. But I loved it! 👍
@@StarloGetsReel pleasure starlo, got your big book on fishing back.in 1987 it's still my Bible for fishing mate. Your the best keep it up, live overseas now but can't wait to retire back home and just fish 100% of my time.
Cheers mike
@@michaelgenias8491 good stuff! 👍
Back when I lived in Sydney I fished Clifton Gardens wharf plenty, got mountains of Leather Jackets there.
Good stuff!
Always love listening to Starlo.
So “easy on the ears”
Starlo & Shroom is a great combo :)
On you guys
Thanks Sanae!
The live footage is great, but the dubbed stuff not so.
Great video!, love the narration makes for nice podcast experience for morning peak hour commute to work 👌
Thanks, Owen!
Great video, Steve! I remember one of your old articles on a wharf session in NZ which really fired up once you got some intelligent berleying going.
Thanks Frank! Yes, some there’s great jetty fishing on offer across the ditch in New Zealand.
Great vid guys! Great collaboration! 👍
Thank you!
love fishing off the jetty, as Forrest Gump says "never know what you're gonna get"
So true!
" hairpiece" , wait, different movie.
Great video and message.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it, David. 👍
Very enjoyable mate! That’s my old stomping ground, I grew up as a jetty rat fishing the wharves around Mosman, lovely spot. Come out for a fish on the boat with me next time too. :)
Thanks mate! Yes, we're overdue for a fish together.
Great work
Thanks, Kenny.
What a great video. thoroughly enjoyed mate. Happy new year
Glad you enjoyed it! Same to you.
Hey mate, I wanted to start off by saying I really do enjoy your videos!
Secondly, I noticed on your second bream your hookset was fairly slow compared to other fisherman I see on TH-cam. I was wondering if you have any tips on setting your hook successfully more often than not, as I seem to be really struggling to set the hook. I’m more of a carp fisherman so I’m used to the fish hooking themselves up. Any advice would be great! And keep up the good work mate!
Thanks! Hooksets really vary (or should, I reckon) depending on how the fish takes the bait or lure. Slower takes seem better suited to slower hooksets and vice versa. Also, don’t forget I was using a natural bait on the jig head rather than a soft plastic. I’d have struck faster had it been an artificial. Hope that makes sense. 👍
nice vlog fellas great work
Thank you!
Good stuff!
you are a master
Great vid mate
Cheers!
Rookie move Starlo grabbing the reel like that. You know better :P
Which bit are you talking about?
I don't see the point of going for kingies of wharves and I never do. The land rate is minimal, most bust off and are left with metres of line and hooks left in their mouth as seen here.
We should all fish smarter.
this is kind of true, catching them off the stones is alot more rewarding and sydney harbour wharves in general fish shit. To properly target them off the wharves, reels and rods should be well in the PE5 and 60lb range.
@@danielwutfisho Yes you're right. I don't have the gear you mentioned yet. Maybe when I do I might go for a wharf kingy 👍
www.buymeacoffee.com/starlo
Are you allowed to use undersize fish as bait (i think you referred to them as yakkers so yellowtail kingfish right? which have a 50 or 60cm bag limit) do bag limits count for live bait or is that separate.
Hi Nick. Yakkas aren't yellowtail kingfish. They're a yellowtail scad that only grows to about 35cm in length. There's no size limit on them. You're not allowed to keep undersized fish for any purpose, even to use as bait. Hope that helps.
@@StarloGetsReel Gotcha, thanks for clarifying that mate, and thanks for the great video
Hi Starlo, do u get tangles on the livebait rig?
I can get tangles on anything. 🤣
what is the soft plastic being used to catch the yakkas please
I’m not sure. Sorry. Perhaps ask Shroom via his channel?
last time i went there i saw a seal in the neted section
Wow!
I've seen a seal as far up as Putney. They move a bit ay
starlo and shroom ep2????? please
Sounds good! I’m keen. 👍
@@StarloGetsReel ahahhahahah thanks for the repley mate
Try balmoral wharf is very active rn
@@srduckyoce1084 good to know!
I was always told to flick your bail arm back rather than just winding up.
I've never heard that one. Manufacturers go to a lot of trouble to build an auto bail closing mechanism into most of their spin reels, so I figure I should use it! ;)
I’ve heard that as well. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker but most professional fisherman recommend manually flipping the bail
@@greg6162 yes, it's interesting. I do a bit of both, but auto return is a function the manufacturers put a fair bit of work into, so I reckon it's only fair we use it. Very handy when wishing to get straight into contact with a lure... with your cranking hand already on the handle.
To each his own. Starlo gets "subsidised" reels though. Longevity isn't an issue for him. I've been given a few free Pflueger rods in the past so no hard feelings there.
@@redtobertshateshandles I’m not given gear, sadly. But yes, I do get supplied with a certain amount of gear - mostly on a loan basis - as a sponsored angler. Reels and most rods generally go back to the supplier after a year or so of use. Works well for them and me as I’m mostly using the latest stuff.
I swear Bream literally follow him around.
I think they do! My pets. 🤣
If those scuba divers did that to me and I’d loose it. And I’m the lost laid back bloke in the world. How dumb are some people. I’m always locked in on my surroundings and would never do anything to upset anyone. Always be considerate folks and don’t be an asshole
It’s a public jetty, Matt. They had as much right to use it for their SCUBA lesson as we did to fish from it.
@@StarloGetsReel your a good man Starlo. I watched you and Rexy boy since I was about 10 years old and I’m now 35. I bet you Rexy would have gave them the what for.
They could go anywhere.Rude. Your typical middle class tossers. I'm a scuba diver, I went once, I'm a this, I'm a that. There's a whole frigging harbour out there. I want fishing banned.

where is this location?
North side of Sydney Harbour.
@Starlo Gets Reel I need some fishing advice I prefer to message you directly or call you because I'm someone with disability
@@peshpeshabdullagoogle
My rod got dragged into the water by a travelly or pelagic fish at balmoral RIP
Oh no! That sucks…
@@StarloGetsReel yes I know but right after that got a 44cm bonito on my brother’s rod
How do you catch the live bait?
Check out Shroom’s TH-cam channel. He has some great how-to clips about it. 👍
next time watch the hole video....they were using sented tiny soft plastics
i know this spot, but where do u park?
We parked in a street well up from it and walked down a long series of steps.
@@StarloGetsReelThank you
You don't really talk like this do you?? Sounds like you're reading. I didn't mind reading your articles in magazines but these videos are reminiscent of the Leyland Brothers.
Ahh, always happy to be compared to Mike & Mal… a couple of genuine Aussie icons! But yes, sorry to disappoint you. That’s my voice and that’s how I talk. Bit late to change now. 😉
Is that supposed to be an insult? Leyland Bros are legends and then some.
I agree that we have to share our waters with scuba divers, but in saying that fisherman were using that area first, and they need to remember that their hobby is no more important than ours and shouldn't take president.
Every person that went to a holiday resort got a Scuba licence and now is a diver.
I guess. Those were school kids though with a teacher. I don’t mind making room for them.
That place is cancer
I really enjoyed it...
haha Shroom is a nobody on the piers and wharves. He doesn't even fish regularly at these places
So, exactly how many times do you have to fish a particular spot to become a "somebody", in your opinion? Sadly, I sense from the pettiness and immaturity of your comment that you may have some self-esteem issues, and I'm really sorry to hear that. Like a lot of his other 80,000+ fans, I'm a huge admirer of Shroom... not only for his obvious abilities, but for his willingness to share knowledge with others... I think it's an example we could all do well to follow. Tight Lines.
You sound like a hater bro 🤦🏾♂️
@StarloGetsReel wow, you had to resort to ad hominem remarks. What's that you said about maturity again? I see you're trying to use another youtuber to make your channel grow, and as you extol the knowledge that Shroom supposedly possesses, there are many people who fish frequently at these places who have a lot more extensive knowledge and actually catch a lot more decent fish. I don't perceive fiahing as a competition between people, but I'm merely stating the fact that Shroom is just an average fisherman who has actually learnt a lot from those who have been around longer. These are people you'll learn a lot more from
@@slyarsenal If what starlo does with his channel upsets you. Why don't you create a channel and showcase these fisherman you keep referencing 🤷🏽♂️ You ain't nothing but a hater ! You insult shroom by calling him a nobody then you go at Starlo who's has been doing this since the 90s but who are you? What have you done for the fishing community?
@@slyarsenal 😂😂😂😂🤣 bruh seriously bringing that type of energy to Starlo?! Such lowlife behaviour!
Fucken oath, Starlo - and Shrooms. We all start somewhere - usually the local jetty like I did. Teaching the young how to be clean and take care of what we have is paramount - the idiots that didnt get the message yet as adults now probably wont change their shitty ways but we can only hope. Tight lines
True enough!
Ive fished that wharf and got the biggest fright at sunet when a massive seal decided to surface in front of me
Yes, they're cheeky buggers!
