- Glamour conditions on a glassed out Moreton Bay in early winter. Great conditions but more importantly, great fishing!
Afternoon run that seen a plan come together perfectly. Chase a jew straight up and then look for a snapper later. 2 jewies and a smaller snapper come quickly, then headed for the big snapper. Not one but 2 big snapper in 2 casts, in the bay, on plastics, on bait cast tackle....
Full noise run home with an epic sunset over my shoulder, does it get any better??
Mate I’ve just subbed.. very excited to have found your channel. I’m a youtuber too like yourself but honestly mate you make me look like a rookie 😂😂😂 The knowledge you have is insane! I was gobsmacked when I realised you can use the electronics to precisely pinpoint accurately where the fish are. You made no attempt to hide your depths etc like some of the other channels. I can see your channel is gonna skyrocket once people know about you..awesome! Keep the vids coming! 💪
Really appreciate the kind words mate! I’m pretty knew to making vids, so hopefully they will only get better as I go. Let me know if there is anything more that could be on the vids. Few guys have asked to see what I’m looking at in the sounder for example.
Cheers
Poking through all your videos not one I haven’t enjoyed just awesome!
Cheers mate!
Slowly working through the videos mate, so incredible to see how accurate you can be with sounding the fish up. Kudos anyone one of those fish in a session is awesome let alone to line them all up like that 👍🏽
Thanks mate!
A skill I have been developing over a while now…
That was a particularly good day that one!!!
That was awesome Peter! Great stuff
Thanks mate! Was an awesome arvo that one 😍
So good to see vids of you catching fish in the local mate 👌🏽
Cheers mate! It can be tough but there is plenty of good fish to be caught.
Nice work mate, I’ve just started fishing Moreton and loving every minute of it, got yourself a new subscriber 🤠
Cheers man, glad you like!
Mate so glad i found this channel , ive been hunting fish in this bay for ages , i just thought it was average fishing thanks for proving me wrong , from nz originally where you can’t have a bad day out haha , if you can even share one of your favourite spots with me id be so appreciative ? Cheers
Thanks mate!
These snapper came for the Harry Atkinson artificial reef.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing legend , tanks mate I’ll check it out
Yeww solid Pete gotta love an arvo session 👌
When they are like that, it’s the best!
Great fish there mate! Keen to give the plastics another crack as been going back to bait of late. You certainly have figured out how to nail the big fish in the bay. Well done mate 👍🎣
Cheers mate! Time on the water, good gear and electronics have been the key for me.
I like how all the boats are bunched up 300 m away and your there on ya own showing ‘‘em how it’s done. Don’t make too much noise they will start moving towards you.
Haha, always the way!
Sweet vid pete …. You must hold the record for the fastest winding of a bc known to man lol
Cheers mate!
Special training required bro 💦
Great vid Pete..Cracking bunch of fish! I love my yak but miss my boat 😩
Cheers man! The rain sure has stirred up the fish
I've got a boat, free for anyone keen to go. Let me know I'm a rookie though
Great video Peter
Thanks mate, appreciate that.
Absolute gun mate. Good work. I swear by the Fork Flex now, they just don’t miss! 🤙🏻
Cheers mate! They are slaying man 😍😍😍
Thanks for the video, amazing to see the quality of the fish out there. You have me hooked subscribed on the spot ,not sure of the depth .
15-20m deep there.
Cheers mate!
Bloody ripper Bro 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Yeah boo!!
I think that is just clip of nice making clip, anyway better than non fisherman. Well done
Thanks 🙏
Fantastic fishing and use of the electrics mate 👍
Cheers mate!
Cracking vid Pete - well done mate 👍
Cheers Lex! Was a awesome arvo on Thursday hey.
Awesome videos mate, much appreciated 👍
Thanks mate, glad you like them!
I wish I could find fish like that you got a new subscriber awesome been out the bay twice last two weeks on smelly pillys I'd much rather fish the way you do 🤙
Hey Peter don't suppose you can Drop a short vid sometime on how you use your sounder side scan to spot schools like those snapper that would be awesome cheers 🤙🎣
Cheers mate!
Yep, ok mate I will do something about the sounder soon.
Legend ✊
Hey Pete, awesome video. I’ve recently been fishing at Moreton as well but I don’t know where to fish or where the deeper waters are, where abouts do you fish within Moreton bay? Cheers 🥂
Thanks mate!
These snapper came from Harry Atkinson artificial reefs mate.
Seen ya down at anglers warehouse!! Luckily remembered your name haha subbed nice channel mate
Haha, wasn’t sure if you would remember!
Cheers man 🤟
Might have to take out the binos and search for pete rather than staring at the sounder.
Doing it yourself is much more rewarding but hey 🤷♂️🤪
hi mate in new zealand we measure the snapper from the head to the center of the tail v . not the tip. . if we measured it here. it be a 33cm snap
Australia measures to the tip and the fork length of these snapper would have been over 60 or so at a guess.
Just started lure fishing and friend told me to watch you! Pretty keen to get out there and give it a try. For some big dogs. I can see by the comments your talented thanks for sharing some brissy knowledge. Do u ever hit logan river much or any other rivers? Subbed keen to learn more
Cheers mate!
Fish pretty much from Broadwater to the brissy river locally and few trips to other places as well.
Glad your liked the clip mate!
Hey Pete, what size braid and leader do you use? LOVE YOU CHANNEL
Thanks mate.
This day, pe 2.5 and 30lb leader.
Very entertaining video mate. Can you tell us what reel and rod you're using? Brand, length, weight?
Cheers mate!
Shimano metanium with 40lb Sunline castaway. The rod is new one, NS Blackhole Medusa Edge 702c, 10-20lb.
What is the jerk shad you are using please?
Also hook size please?
Molix fork flex 5” and 5/0
Great video, and excellent skill with using electronics and fishing techniques. Thanks for sharing. It was a bit of a downer for me though to see you put the fish in your live well while it was still alive and allow it to die slowly. It would really easy to despatch the fish in a second with a brain spike which makes no difference to us anglers, but makes a big difference to the fish. As an influential CZcamsr, it would be good to see you also advocate to your community some good practices in fish welfare and treatment as well.
Cheers mate.
Kinda understand your point. I have a background of a lot of tournament fishing, where they keep multiple fish in a live well for many many hours and then release the fish. Just wondering what your thoughts on that are?
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing I also catch and use live bait, of which very few really ever survive or enjoy the experience. So i shouldn't make comments to others. When I know that I'm keeping a fish though I do my best to despatch it as quickly as possible. I really respect your knowledge and skill and hope to learn more from your future videos.
@@craigmcalister4451 when I’m better organised, I have a esky and ice. I brain spike, bleed and ice. Some of my other videos show this. The livewell is very large with great circulation, both inflow and recirculation.
Pretty sure in this video I catch a Jew which is released ‘in the water’ not taken out etc. I do try and look after fish I am not going to eat as best I can.
But I agree that it’s best to kill fish immediately as they test better and is better for the fish. Going to look into fish bags as esky really gets in the way unfortunately and one I have isn’t overly big for fish like 1m plus.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing thanks. I haven't watched all of your other videos yet but I've subscribed and I'm looking forward to getting through them.
Great video mate.. is that just south of Moreton Island..? Was there a few weeks ago..Not much happening..
Thanks mate! Yeah southern end of the bay Is usually where I fish hey.
made it look easy mate. whats the best tide for jewies in the bay mate?
Sometimes it is but not that often 🤣.
Prefer medium sized tides as too much run can make getting a lure in the zone difficult. Don’t mind either direction, run in or run out, just gotta find em 🤪.
Awesome vid again mate! Do you find the jewies like thoes more aggressive hops you’re doing?
Sure do mate. Gotta wake em up sometimes hey!
Nice work, that's a crazy winding speed you get on the baitcaster when you hook up. is that the Wakasagi colour Fork Flex, mate?
Cheers mate, special training required for fast hand speed on the reel hey 🤣🤣.
Wakasagi it is mate! Have to say it’s the best colour for me atm.
That’s pretty cool mate. Well done. Was that speed reading on your boat in knots?
Thanks heaps man!
Was the second line, 87k’s 🤣 gotta love it when you open her up in the bay like that.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing lol. That’s hooting.
@@crikeymacca not many days I can do that in the middle of Moreton bay but sure is fun when you can 🤪
Nice edit mate, some nice fish, love the bay, i dropped a few new snapper videos on my channel, down here at kingscliff way, some awesome reds around.
What lb leader u using mate?
I subscribed too mate
Cheers mate. Nice! Don’t catch them enough, forget how hard they go hey.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing yer bro pull some serious string hey.
Have u done a sounder course or anything, u seem to have it down pat
@@sharkyshepo8167 no course, just time on the water hey.
Hi Peter I am just getting started fishing the bay. What size bait caster reel and lbs braid were you using?
Hey Joel, using a 10-20lb rod, 150 Shimano Metanium and pe 2.5 Sunline castaway with 30lb leader.
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing thank you so much, really helps as I’m used to spin set ups. Keep up the great work!
@@Peter_Herbst_Fishing 20lb rod and 50lb line????
@@thedon9670 10-20lb rated rod (Fluor/nylon rating not braid) 2.5 pe braid igfa max 30lb.
Matey you saying look at the school etc but we are not seeing it, can you do a split screen ?
Sorry mate, I can’t tell that camera is not picking it up. Bad sun angle in the arvo.
Great video.
What type of gear are you using?
Cheers mate.
Molix fork flex plastics
Dobyns and NS rods
Shimano reels
Sunline castaway braid
Sunline fc 50 leader
TT headlocks jigheads
Thank you
@@stevennaumovski8477 no worries man. Let me know if you need any other info 👌
Nice Peter, good to see so many good fish in the bay...and you have certainly mastered the art of catching using plastics........ Do you have specific spots on the bay that produce for you or do you ride around looking for them.... See you have your Sounders out to the side of the boat not below.... (You saw fish 30m out to the side of your boat?
@@marki-p5065 hi Mark, I generally look with the sounder at various spots until I find the fish I want to target. The closer my boat is to the fish, the better. Boat positioning and knowing where to cast that will see the lure come past the fish is critical.
