Great video. I love how much respect you show towards them. Great video with some terrific tips. Lots of angles and a great range of species shown. I’ve only got my L plates on so this has been a great video to watch. Learnt so much.
Hi mate, thanks so much for the really positive comment. I’m glad that you got some help from the video and enjoyed the content. Good luck with the fishing mate, as tough as it is sometimes it is a great way to pass the time and can be very rewarding ☺️ feel free to reach out if I can help out in anyway. Thanks again
I have never fished the lake, boat nearly ready to head out somewhere hopefully catching a fish or 2 . Just love watching other people who have the knowledge and skills
Thanks mate, I’m not guru but enjoy searching for these big girls 😊 have fun when you get on the water mate 👌🏽 reach out if I can help in any way 👍🏼Hook In
Hey mate great vids. I like how you explain why you've chosen that particular spot on the big lake. A lot of you tubers don't explain why they are fishing where they fish. Just one thing I've been hearing some marine biologist talk about. Fish don't have eye lids. So they may even be in pain sitting there on the boat getting sun in thier eyes. Good thing you use the rag. May be even give thier eyes a rest. I'm subscribing mate. Top stuff cheers. Also what boat hull is that. I'm thinking about upgrading.
Hi mate, thanks for the positive feedback. I really appreciate getting feedback! I’ve never really thought about that eyes of the fish so that definitely makes sense. Some great info thanks. The hull is a reef runner, I do an episode on the boat if you want to have a squizz 👍🏼 thanks again mate
I don’t make it look as easy as you legend but yeah there are a few around 😊 securing those big girls is hit and miss but sticking with the fundamentals to keep them coming in! 😅 cheers Davo 🤙🏽
Thanks mate, I usually run either a 6-12lb or 10-17lb 7ft rod and either a 2500 or 3000 size reel. 10-15lb braid and run 20lb leader when chasing big lizards 👍🏼 They are Relaxn seats mate, not too bad 👌🏽 thanks mate appreciate the feedback
Great episode again Ben with the onset of cold water. If you are looking for a fishing buddy on the lake, hit us up, I usually fish Brissy Waters and also enjoy chasing the big ones at Lake Mac. Tight lines 🎣
Completely agree with fish handling! Hate watching guys hanging fish off lip grips for extended periods or letting their fish thrash over sand rubbing off their protective slime. If you keep fish you know that fish need that slime to protect from parasites and environment. Rub it off and fish can suffer or die over an extended period. Thanks for taking care of your catch!
@ yes mate it’s a hugh lake I would love to be able to fish with you but I’m in Victoria keep searching for the fish you will find them eventually good luck bro 👍👍👍👍👍
Great content,what depth and structure are you looking for,never fished the lake. Did you down size your leader to get the bites.....??keep your videos coming.

No worries. Doc Lures talked about fish sight and eyelids etc a few times. I found it interesting what they can see etc. Cheers

Thanks mate, appreciate the feedback. If people get any take aways from my vids. Hopefully it’s these points that stick ☺️
Miss that place 25 years ago I got my Pb flatly fishing for jew fish some big lizards back then
Nice mate 👍🏼 there’s still some big ones creeping around. Just a highly pressured system now unfortunately.
There is plenty of fish in the lake just move around until you find something 👍👍👍👍
Yeah that’s the trick mate, sometime some big days driving around!
@ yes mate it’s a hugh lake I would love to be able to fish with you but I’m in Victoria keep searching for the fish you will find them eventually good luck bro 👍👍👍👍👍
Great video champion, I think you have done very well considering most fish aren't bitting coming into winter
Thanks for the feedback mate, I approve it! I actually really enjoy fishing this time of year 😊
You must be joking mate, the lakes on fire
