Haha grim times mate! Ugh! 😩

We all need a pet Barra in our lives! Just not in Victoria 🤣

Thanks mate! We had an awesome time, good to get out of the cold and a few fish was a bonus

Thanks Martin! Awesome to get away. Few fish was a bonus!

Thanks Mitchy! Haha yeah that’s it mate 🎣 🦄🤣

Thanks mate! I probably ended up with 40 fish in 3.5 sessions. There was a full night session too that I just didn’t film at all as it was 8pm-4am and mozzies were thicccccc

And I think the crocs will greatly appreciate the creature comforts of Dorothy!

@@PaulMalovFishing wow. That’s a lot of fish. Even mozzies in the dry season? I hate those things

Thanks buddy. Been a while between videos haha but I enjoyed the filming and edit so hopefully get back in the swing of things again slowly! Barra fishing was unreal. Nothing huge but anything over 60cm fights awesome!

@@PaulMalovFishing Definitely looking forward to seeing more! You’re an absolute natural behind the lens and behind the rod. Good stuff champion👏

Great trip by the looks of it Paul👍

Thanks JL! Well overdue family getaway and good to get some fishing in as well. Grouse to get a Barra first cast too!

Hey Isaac, these are Jiggle fishing p38? ones from memory. I use some old Austackle Shinku ones that I have laying around from time to time but you can’t get them any more.

@@PaulMalovFishing cheers mate

Hey mate. Sorry for the late message. They’re holding up awesome. I did have one go back in for a service a few months back as it was feeling a bit tight, they replaced a few bits and pieces under warranty and back in my hands a few days later. Think I have 6? 2022 models now.

Hey mate. Yeah I’ve picked up a few of the cheapies off Ali/Temu style websites to try too. One thing i noticed is those all float, so will need a little weight inside to get them down

@@PaulMalovFishing ive put a light whacky weight in the bottom or use a free weight on the line

Hey Rick, there’s a good kayak friendly pontoon these days around the Hopkins st/Dynon road bridge area, on the Footscray side of the river. I used Flemington bridge car park, and made my way down stream

@@PaulMalovFishing awesome. I will check that launch out. I had a good session further down launching at the warmies with the bream up on the top of one of the reefs down there ambushing bait as the water level fell. Seemed like the wash from ships creates a bit of a stimulus

Hey mate. Yes that’s right all stock, no lifts. 35,00km so far and been very pleased with them

Thank you for the kind words, they’re a wonderful boat!

Thank you for the feedback, appreciate it! Definitely one I have also thought about/would like to do!

Put the Chardonnay down Jacqui

But that’s not the point is it - point is OSP came up with the idea and now everybody is trying to make cheap copies of it. I don’t disagree that they’re shockingly overpriced. But to say they’re garbage isn’t really fair

Appreciate it!

Hey mate. I use the regular/mid size weight 99% of the time. Not a huge fan of the UL and only use the heavy in strong current or deep water

Hi mate. Sorry for the delayed response. No, no need to ground the module

@@PaulMalovFishing Good to know, thanks!

Hi mate, sorry for the delayed reply. The average size has probably increased in there and sometimes the lures I use also tends to attract the larger fish to bite. Thank you for watching! ✌🏻

Hey Dave. Using a size 0 and going to try a size 1/0 in this Varivas Wacky Master hook

Thanks mate 🙂 @@PaulMalovFishing

It’s tricky land based mate as most is behind private houses. I’d jump on Google earth and see what you can hit up. That area near woolworths/shops worth a look

Thanks mate!@@PaulMalovFishing

Hey Geoff. Yep still fishing from the 460SC with the estuary transom - think they only do the offshore transoms now. But overall still love the boat, it’s a brilliant all round. We still do a lot more estuary work and I’d still love a Hornet 481/115hp for that work - which would still get you offshore safely and back on a good day. Have been out a few times offshore and it’s always been a very safe and comfortable trip. Once again, we pick the weather days but have never once felt unsafe. Guess it comes down to what kind of fishing you do most of….

Thanks mate. I went and looked at one today and once you sit in one you don't realize just how big they are and appreciate how much room for a few blokes to fish. I love both offshore and estuary/bay fishing but in my old fibreglass 5.2m boat fishing the small stuff is pretty hard.

It’ll get done. I’ve got some ideas too, not a very complex design haha

@@PaulMalovFishing no it is because of all the thin plastic lines coming off it as it will need more air pockets cause theres that many and so thin.

@@savvyluresogjust do that after they come out of the mold using jig skirting material perhaps? Less things to mold and to go wrong as it comes out of the mold

@@PaulMalovFishing 2 different materials though it wont be good after bit. Ill figure something out though haha

Haha finally someone was dumb enough to throw them at bream 😄

Haha thanks Mario! 🎲🎲

Yeah I’ve seen some hit and miss results in their videos over there. I think colour and location make a big difference over there

@@PaulMalovFishing sometimes you've just gotta roll the dice!

Just a shame they’re so expensive
