  • Quick how to catching Tilapia in the Gooseponds, Mackay. Fishing with my kids and teaching them the ropes of fishing. If you got kids and want to get them out of the house then try this, its cheap, easy fun and the kids will beg you to take them fishing after catching a few of these!

      No worries stingray, we caught the 2 big ones after you left. I did an Andy’s fishing forage for bait and found worms down near the bridge, dug some up and came back and slayed em 🤣

      That’s mad you got the bottom feeders! The Andy’s fishing Forage method always works hey!

    Been worrying about how to involve my 5yr old boy in fishing. This is perfect! I'll be taking him out to catch a talapia this weekend.

      IzZy EpiC yeah as much as we’d love to take them lure fishing, they get a lot more enjoyment and experience bait fishing, there’s a lot of valuable skills they learn doing things like this! Leo is begging to go catch flattys on lures next so we’ll see how that goes! Glad I’ve inspired you with this clip as I think it’s really cool to see kids getting involved and out fishing!

    Hey Awesome video mate Thanks for Teaching me how to catch Tilapia around the Mackay Region !! I was just wondering what setup do you use for Tilapia as well as Bait and Timeframe you catch them ? Thanks for the videos cheers William !!

      Just use something light, like 10lb or less mainline. Worms I’ve found are the best bait and warmer months there seems to be more fish close to the edges..

    Apparently they are pretty good fish to eat. Over in the us it’s the most or one consumed fish.

      @Micksgonefishing  Před 3 lety

      Anywhere between the holts rd bridge up to windmill is where I usually go, there’s heaps of big ones in the pond near the Amart complex there also. I just walk until I see them and let the kids at em 😆

    Where do you buy worms?

    • @Micksgonefishing
      @Micksgonefishing  Před 3 lety

      I didn’t buy them, took the kids to the garden and dug them up ourselves..
