    Just arrived back from a long weekend away with family and friends. No line was wetted even though there was a damn great tidal river calling me for 3 days and, yesterday, a beautiful beach crying out for a cast. So bloody happy to have returned to catch your video Billy! 🙂

    Hey Billy, I have to say thank you. Heading back from Denmark at the moment. Got some fishing in while I was there. I have never before fished with surfcasting gear. Used your Pulley P rig and was able to catch one cod and two flounder. Had a blast!

    hi Billy - that's one thing I do miss here in NZ.... flatfish. We only have Flounders and Sole, slightly different to yours and rarely caught on rod and line. My 'best (?)' two lines mess here involved a medium sized Conger Eel.....you can imagine the result 😂 Tight lines, Ian

    • @Billyfishing_watch
      @Billyfishing_watch  Před 2 lety

      Hi Ian. I love to hear about the fish other guys get. Are the flounder you get like the American flounder? Do you get conger? or are they long fin eels, you are taking about. I would not like to imagine the mess they would make of your tackle 🤣😂 thanks Brother, see you on the beach 👍😁

      @@Billyfishing_watch our flounders are rounder and have heads more like your Dover Sole. Our Sole are not as elongated as yours, look more like a cross between your Flounders and Dover Sole. Both make delicious eating 😊 We have enormous long fin and short fin freshwater eels here that I've had a few encounters with while Trout fishing. Our Congers are almost exactly the same as yours though.
