Yeah, I've put on too many Kg's need to get fit again. Also I need to learn to take more water when I'm out there.. towards the end I'm getting pretty hot in the sun and the lack of water isn't helping. Still I'm happy to see I'm upgrading each time I got down there. Going to kayak down that whole rock wall soon to see if I have better luck pulling out a Jack or Jew. 👍
Hi there CastingAwayDepression, I thought I would just touch base with you. I am hoping everything is Ok for you in your world. I hope your family member with an illness has recovered. I have been checking regularly in the hope you have release another of your enlightening videos. I would like to wish a Merry Christmas to you & yours and a Happy new year, Cheers, Martin Land
Thanks Martin, I've not been doing well. Though I'm really trying to get out of this Rut, i went for a flick for the first time in around a year just last week. I'm keen to get back into it. Just Mentally I'm just not that present... my videos would just be me not very talkative.. Thanks for your kind words mate.
Good luck bud..hope ur feeling well. Im just coming out,🤞🏼 of a shit few wks stress,anxiety then the low. Had to work on it. Good on ya gettin busy. Fluro👍🏼
Appreciate it Tony 👍 Things are a bit tough for myself too lately. Just trying to focus in on a time I can get out and cast a line again. Thanks for the message mate. 😉
Hey mate, i live in bundy and just recently got into fishing. Your videos have given me a bunch of good tips and also nice spots. More importantly though i love the channels concept of taking care of your mental health. Hope youre doing well and ill be patiently waiting for your return :)
Thanks mate, Really appreciate you dropping me a message! I'm glad your getting into fishing 😁 It's been the best way to get me out of my shell and start to live a bit more. Unfortunately i had to leave the Bundaberg area last year. I miss the fishing up there. Less pressured water's around Bundy. I've recently just started getting back into my fishing after a big break. I'll be back for sure. I've been fortunate enough to meet up with nice bloke i actually met in Bundy, on one of my videos no less. He's been taking me out offshore and showing me the ropes out there. I've been making video for his channel lately. call it a bit of a collaboration effort. @EndlessWeekendlife " The endless Weekend" here on TH-cam. I'll start posting my own content back on my channel when i get my self sorted a bit more. All the best out there mate. wish you good luck fishing the water up there!!! have fun and enjoy yourself mate!!!
Awesome, yeah I'll have to pick a good day to get down there. Been hard to get out lately. I'm really itching to get out for a flick. cheers for the heads up mate 👍
Thanks @Jnig593. Appreciate you saying that. I've been struggling a lot. But i have been working over the last month to get back into TH-cam and making some new videos. all will be explained soon hopefully. Cheers mate :D
@@CastingAwayDepression I understand it can be tough, but I look forward to seeing the updates and changes! Keeping all secrets on for the new videos. Need to know the good spots and where they're biting!
@@Jnig593 👌even though it might be awhile till i actually get the videos edited and posted. i'm trying hard to motivate myself.. Starting with WBHFC 2023!!!
@@CastingAwayDepression yeah sweet times, loved that video of last years, keen to see how you go with WBHFC - its not far till the competition now. Are you feeling fighting fit for a big ass fish? Ever wondered what might happen if a big ol' shark grabs your hook, does it just pull your kayak like a little boat. I'm would be afraid of being pulled in the water and loosing the kayak.
@@Jnig593 Yeah I'm super pumped for it. meeting someone who i met through the channel there to have a flick. i'll be most likely land based fishing the event this year so we can fish together. challenge myself a bit doing it all by foot... (Maybe ill bring the yak out) haha see if i can take out 1st place flattie again. I think most sharks would just cut though my line, though it would 100% tow my yak. Never get too stressed thinking about the sharks... I've had a couple go right by me. although it'll only take one aggressive one to ruin my fun.
Hi there, I have been enjoying watching your videos but I have noticed you haven't produced one for awhile. I am thinking it is because you are busy with work into the new year. I hope that is the case and there is not unfortunate circumstances preventing you from producing some more informative videos. Are you Ok? Cheers
Hey Martin, Thanks Very much for your message. Very kind words. I've been out a couple times in December and had some good intentions of producing some more content. Unfortunately Both those times were incredibly windy and I didn't have much luck catching anything. Since then I've fallen on some hard times which has made it very difficult to get out for a fish. Believe me when I say I'm itching to get back out there... Fishing and making videos has been one of the only things I look forward to doing. Right Now I'm just trying to get through this rough patch. I have some unfinished video projects I should try to get done. Just been a bit hard on my Mental Health lately. I cant wait to get back out there. Thanks for checking in on me. Makes me feel good knowing that there are people who care and enjoy my content and look forward to more. Fingers crossed I can get back out there soon. Cheers Mate 👍
@@CastingAwayDepression Sorry to hear that mate. Would you be interested in coming out on my little 3.4m tinny sometime? Not to make a video but just for company. I can see that you have a real passion for fishing so if it would help make your day a bit better I would love to have your company on a trip one day. As I said I have a small tinny which my wife & I enjoy going on the water as often as weather & health permit. We are planning on going to Winfield on Monday. I only feel comfortable with 2 people in our size boat so if you would like a day out one day my wife said she will happily sit the day out. Let me know mate Cheers.
@@martinland333 Wow! Martin That's incredibly Generous of you. That made me smile. Unfortunately I have a very sick family member that I'm looking after closely. I appreciate the offer so much mate. I hope that maybe one day in the near future I can take you up on that offer. I'm always happy to to share some time chatting and casting a line with a fellow Fisho. Again Big Thanks to you and your wife for thinking of me. The kindness of strangers will never cease to amaze me. Best of luck up in Winfield mate. I hope you catch a Jack or two. I've heard of some large Lizards and Grunter up that way. 😁
@@CastingAwayDepression That is Ok mate. Please keep in touch as that offer does not have an end date. I hope you have access to any help with caring for your sick family member. I have been my wife's carer since 2019 when she broke her knee in 3 places stepping out of a boat at Monduran Dam. She was unable to walk on it until August last year when she had a what the surgeons describe as a Extremely Difficult knee replacement which took 5 1/2 hours on the operating table. Well since then we try to get out on our smaller boat now as often as possible. We haven't had much luck , only Grunters so far. We have tried Elliot Heads after watching your video, Walkers Point, Burnett Heads, Miara. My main one I am after is Flathead. My boat is only an old tinny with just a 3.3 HP Mariner with a 33LB thrust electric, It is not flash or fast but it suits us because I don't see the need to be travelling at great speeds. Ok mate take care & I hope things improve for you & your family member.
Cheers @the_dingo_show. slowly turning around. Getting back into the fishing after 7-8 months. Hope i can get some content out in the next couple months. Thanks for your kind words :D
@@CastingAwayDepression mate, go fishing don't pressure yourself with content. I know how much extra effort it takes and you should not put that on yourself if it's holding you back from getting out there. It'll come when you're ready don't force it or feel guilty for not filming. PS I'm down @ Innes Park for a few days, what's on the bite this time of year and where's a good spot for land based with a dog if you have any tips please?
@@the_dingo_show i got out for my first flick since Xmas last week. Felt really good. i did record it all, but will take some time to edit etc. and in the future instead of the pressure of trying to bang out a weekly video. I'm going to work on some longer videos but more spaced apart. Have a crack around Palmers Creek. near jennifer young park. Great for talking out the Dog, i'd be aiming for couple hours either side of the high tide. couple soft plastics near the entrance for some Flatties. or try flicking the outgoing tide off Kellys beach a little further up. Taylor, Bream and Flatties and if your fishing light.. maybe some whiting. Good luck out there :) I like the Berkley Gulp stuff. (Bio Baits) the new turbo shrimp go alright. 👍
Best Chewiing Fish
I've never tried, But I've been told they go alright. So I'm definitely keen to try next time i get a nice pan sized one :D
Nice grunter.👍
Thanks Mate, If I could consistently target these Grunter I'd be soo happy. Even the small one's go hard. Harder then bream. 😁
Sounding a bit knocked up there brother with that heavy breathing. 😂 Bloody worth it tho! Congrats.
