How To Catch Monster Tilapia - Bait and Lures
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ต.ค. 2023
- Today I fished a tiny local pond where I spotted some large exotic pest fish swimming around. Armed with some soft plastic lures and some good old bread I gave it a go to see if I could catch them.
They turned out to Tilapia which are noxious introduced species in Queensland Australia. These fish cannot be returned to the water. for more info see below link to Queensland fishing regulations.

Really good feed,one of my favourites. Pity some way cant be arranged for catch and cook only. Thank you for the upload.
Yeah its a real shame you can't keep them for food but I guess some people would spread them to other lakes .
@@ScaleUpadventures I would not be surprised.
unfortunately looks too late with the last lot of floods these guys have spread pretty much everywhere in SEQ
Yeah it seems to be the case and will only get worse
that's great I've seen you catch both carp and tilapia on lures. you must like a challenge
Always happy to give it a go and see what happens. I fond most fish with have a go at a small soft plastic. Also find a little scent makes a big different
Talarpia are great eating cheers.
They sure are but unfortunately not alowed to take them home here is SEQ.
Mate that's a good pond, have done exceptionally well in that one,, used to get some real good spangled perch in there once, but now none. Took 29 not long back, their real tigers in that puddle.....
Spot on mate. Haven't seen any spangled perch in there but then again I've only fished it the one time. Hope there are still a few hiding somewhere.
@@ScaleUpadventures unfortunately the last few times we visited we didn't see a single one.
love it you make it look so easy and fun.
Took a few cast to get them they after they shut down definitely wasn't easy haha
Nice work. :) They really are a pest!
Are they like the carp we have in Melb?
Yeah they are the same as they live in every creek or lake around the place
Only thing in common is they are a noxious fish "vermin". They are part of a family of fish cichlidae. This species originate from Africa. One of the world most farmed food fish.
Thanks for sharing the vid, good fun, were you saying that they NEST in the shallows ? i know they catch them in North PINE DAM , such a shame
they are a good looking fish, i know Somerset Dam now has quite a few exotic pests as well.
Cheers mate tight lines, Chris
Hey mate glad you enjoyed the vid. I have seen them nesting in pretty shallow water in this pond and heaps in pine dam also. Havent target them there as yet. They are good fun to catch
We eat them in Florida by the dozen.
I wish we could they are delicious. Unfortunately law says we have to dispose of them straight away and not transport them in any way.
I caught a tilapia using bobber setup as well but with tiny micro soft plastic lures below it, check it out its on my channel.
Thanks mate that's a great idea. I will take a look might have to give that a go.
Nice catch where is this
North of Brisbane. Pretty much any suburban creek or pond will be full of them.
So sad to waste such a beautiful fish. Also food waste :(
i caught one not long ago and now its in my fish tank lol
Ahhhh okl. Where about are you from. Not to sure we are allowed to do that here in Queensland
They are really good eating fish... not sure why they won't let you guys eat them? If more people eat them, the tilapia fish will go faster.
Yeah I totally agree with you. I think they are worried that people will deliberately spread them into new waterways. However, with the floods we recently had, they have pretty much spread everywhere already
Let them bring those tilapia to jamaica, We love them here. They going short here because catfish and jaguars eating them
I'm sure crocodiles in North Queensland would love eating these guys here too.
