Oh Starlo, this is the way I fish for Bass in QLD. We used to take all these fishing "experts" out for a day with 12 rods each, 370 lures, 12 tonnes of different plastics and they would be lucky to catch 1 between them. Sink a live fresh water prawn down and never fails. I do miss that.
Thanks for another great video. It's a good technique for Yellowbelly out west too. Even in muddy water they find the live shrimp fast. I use sunlight soap as bait in my shrimp traps.
Great video Roger, I bought my beach outfit, looking forward to putting your knowledge to practice. Thanks for inspiring me to give another form of fishing a go 👍🏻
If this was from Saturday morning I was also out there and saw you, my daughter said to me “that’s that fishing guy dad” then she yelled out hello to you 😂 happy fishing !
Hahahaha your corespondent obviously doesn’t know you too well Steve regarding the eating of the prawns. That was a great session there you had. One of the best memories I have is eating a absolutely fresh tailor caught off Bingi Bingi beach and cooking it over a fire while camping up in the bush above the beach. Beautiful eating! Thanks mate. 👍🏻
The American use those popping corks and “shrimp” tactic a lot for their redfish and spotted trout. It’s a deadly technique over mid depth flats if you can get the pop of the cork and not lose the prawn
So cool! What a session. Always blows my mind going back to bait and how damn good it is. I was hoping you were going to run out of prawns and whack on a Squidgie flick bait with a bit of S-Factor for comparison! I'm literally headed out the door to go and pop a cork for the Clyde River sea trout, I may have to rig a strip of mackerel instead of the usual softie 👍
Yep, great fish. Far south coast of NSW. I usually tend to not identify specific waterways if I can avoid it, but there are lots like that one and all hold fish. 👍
I'm a bait guy as I can't afford the price of lures. I don't compensate when it comes to bait though and buy the best quality banana prawns I can get my hands on when I go rock fishing then go to great lengths to keep them fresh and cool. On the Scamander river the gun bait for big bream was/is live crabs which I source from a well-guarded spot. Fished unweighted or lightly weighted they always got belted at a rate of knots!
@@tonyallen8626 Depends what lures and whether you lose any. Most reputable hard bodies are over $ 20 a pop these days so a small assortment can set you back + $ 100. Plastics are cheaper, I guess but the better ones are still over priced in my books.
Yes, fair call, but I let most of my bream go these days. I reckon they're just too slow-growing and long-lived to keep for what is usually a fairly average (in my opinion) meal. As you say, each to their own.
@@StarloGetsReel I know what your saying, i pretty much let 100% of bream go as well, and agree more fun to catch than eat, but have to say they rate just above taylor.😁👍
Beautiful location, sunrise and fish! Hard to beat....
Excellent master class Starlo!! Classic fishing style! Looked like you were having alot of fun👌
Thanks! I sure was...

Yes, it's almost TOO good!
Great video Steve thanks so much for the tips 💯🎣
No problem 👍

Thanks! Yes, I'd love to try it on yellas.

Sounds great! But maybe that comment was meant for Roger Osborne's channel? (Which I love, by the way.)
@@StarloGetsReel sorry starlo, bloody autoplay flicked to your video, the very next in my playlist while I was writing the comment.
Another great video and techniques Starlo

Hi! Was lovely to get the wave and be able to return it. Tight Lines! 👍
I find it amazing that Shimano has a 10 year warranty in Australia. We only have a 1 year warranty in the USA!
Go figure!

Thanks Kev! Yes, very fresh tailor can be pretty damn good!
great fish, further north in similar territory probably get bricked by jacks or trevally.
@@keithprinn720 for sure.

Absolutely!
That's how I got addicted to bass fishing in my local creek n river blackfish float n shrimp then I seen couple of guys use lures n never went back
I’m with you. Much rather catch them on lures and flies. But it’s illuminating how effective the real thing is! 😳
So cool!
What a session. Always blows my mind going back to bait and how damn good it is.

Go get ‘em! 👍
Got to love the EP, certainly a great sport fish!! What river are you on?
Yep, great fish. Far south coast of NSW. I usually tend to not identify specific waterways if I can avoid it, but there are lots like that one and all hold fish. 👍
Great episode Steve , if I could have given 59 thumbs up for this one I would have haha
Cheers! Thanks! 👍
That Tailor looks like the Blue fish we have on the East Coast of America
Yep. Exactly the same fish! Also found in South Africa (where it's called elf or shad) and various other parts of the world. 👍
@@StarloGetsReel They are good fresh but I don't care for them once they have been frozen.

Lure fishing is cheaper than bait.

@@tonyallen8626 ... true I reckon, unless you source you're own bait. Good, commercially-sold bait is so bloody expensive these days!
Yes, they love a crab alright!
always hated deep hooking bream using nippers
Yes, it's an issue for sure.
i thought you may have traded the taylor for that bream, each to their own😊. BTW great vid might get out the floats.

What sort of boat are you rocking Sterlo?
This one: th-cam.com/video/Qnt4ub5ULss/w-d-xo.html
I'd eat the prawns... have you seen the prices of prawns in the marketplace?
Don’t worry… we ate a fair bunch. 😉
