- First time out fishing after a busy summertime, it was really nice to be down on the beach despite the windy conditions but it was nice and sunny and the beach looked stunning but not all that fishy but despite that I had a really nice time and managed a few worms and caught a few fish that made a really nice dinner. Thank you all for watching and do hope you enjoy.
Hi viewers I have had a snake pointed out to me heading towards the paddle boards around 28 seconds in just for interest sake if you want to look see, you just never know what is slithering around. Good old Australia...Thanks Kim for pointing it out to us.
Wow, well spotted, thats hard to see on the video even when its pointed out to us. You obviously had no idea and didnt see it yourself mate? Stay safe
@@darrengibson2508 Kim has eagle eyes.
sopt good fishing with sunny weather excellent time for senior day fishing
Greetings coming again, seniors, healthy greetings, always continue to strike
It's cool, friends, fishing by the sea, greetings from Indonesian anglers
Besides the wind, looks like a fantastic bait and fishing day.
I think that lady liked you. 🤣
You have a fantastic, down to earth video channel that is relevant, local fishing.
Thank you very much for saying, and "O" dear
You make it look easy Dave.
Thank you mate, there has been a lot of practice over the years, nice to hear from you again to.
Had a crack out there today, picked up a nice sized mullet and about 10 tommies on cockles and gents. Thanks for all the info your clips have helped me a great deal. I’m still chasing my first sand worm though lol.
Hi gareths100, thats a nice catch well done thank you for letting me know. I'm happy to hear my videos have helped you out a bit, you will catch a worm sooner or later it will be a good day. All the best mate and happy fishing.
Hi David. I just wanted to tell you that I found your videos of fishing various points on the Fleurieu most informative & very helpful. I never tried surf cast beach fishing before but as soon as I arrive in Adelaide 27 Nov for your summer, I plan to pick up a 12' rod & reel combo from BCF in Victor. Will initially be staying in Goolwa until mid January thereafter will be based in Happy Valley, walking distance to the rezzie there. I went to Bass Pro shop in Buffalo, NY a few days ago & bought all kinds of great plastic baits, vibes and crankbaits plus other stuff that I can fit in my luggage. I hope to be doing more fishing in some of the spots you featured rather than just sitting on the Brighon Jetty this forthcoming summer. Hope the rain stops soon too. Keep up the great work with your most excellent video's! Yes, I am now subscribed. Regards, Walt
Hi Walter nice to hear from you mate especially from the USA sounds like you have traveled to Australia before, it's good to hear you have found my videos handy. Never surf fished before, well around Goolwa and back towards Victor Harbour there are quite a few places to try your luck especially for mulloway (I have a video called Australian salmon rigs and cooking yummy fish cakes at 26min's into it I show the mulloway rig I use you may find it helpful I do rave on a bit sometimes.) that is a good rig around the goolwa area the workers at BCF will be more than happy to help you out with tackle and where to go have a fish(Bashams Beach is one) if you head out to waitpinga or parsons it will probably be best to fish the ways I fish on my video's fishing off those beaches. Thank you for subscribing and watching Walter I hopefully will get out soon before my job gets really busy(maggot breeder Sheldon's bait) and get another video done. Also you might find my Yellow eyed mullet bait, burly, rigs fishing parsons beach video handy. it shows a good way to catch mulloway bait... Cheers.
Awesome 👌
Thanks mate, Appreciated.
Wonderful, like 👍👍👍
Thank you Randy.
Brilliant video Grandad 👍👍👍
Thank you very much grandson Jackson
Love your work Dave. The fact that you actually explain what you are doing helps even us experienced fisho's ....e.g. keeping worms alive in the hesion bag.(other videos)......works a treat....
Thank you Adam, thats nice to hear mate.
Well done, I’m trying my best, so far nothing, I’m fishing of Aldinga beach, I’ll keep going and see if I can’t get some mullet.
Hi Mike thanks mate, yes keep trying make sure you are fishing in the deeper water next to the sand bars or where the waves aren't breaking also under the white water which the waves have created at the back of the channel which run along the edge of the beach use burley in small amounts regular not big amounts every now and then. Can I recommend watching my Fishing for Yellow Eyed Mullet video if you haven't watched it yet. It might help you out a bit more, I do rave on a bit though lol. There are worms at Aldinga beach also try fishing further down at Sellicks beach and near the reef at either end of the beach. All the best Mike
Lovely spot my friend ...thanks for showing us this amazing beach! Hope you are doing great David
Hi Frank, yes it is a Awesome beach a nice place to be and nice to hear from you again my friend. I'm doing ok and I hope you are too. I have been slowed down from getting out fishing lately but shall be back into it soon. All the best for now Frank.....Cheers David.
Thanks for another video! I could watch you fish all day
My pleasure and thank you for the compliment PHIL.
Hi David , only recently discovered your channel and have become a big fan of you been watching your videos every day over last few days. I notice this is one of your last videos you made 2 years ago. Hope all is well with you and would love to see new videos coming up
Hello Sibtain, thank you that is nice to hear. Videoing has become difficult over the last couple of years with work and a couple of other things, i will be getting back into it in the future not sure when but I will be back. Thank you again!
Good to see you back mate. Thoroughly enjoyed the video. The camera work on the worming was terrific. The beach looked plain for fishing but the value of a burley bag and burley spring just shows up in aces. A couple of nice ones for the pan. Pity about the wind but you did well. You thought of using Bassday Sugapens surface lures for the whiting ? Just another string in your bow for whiting maybe. Cheers Dave 😀
Thank you Trevor, happy to hear you enjoyed the video. I have never tried the lures for the whiting yet but I am going to sooner or later, I recently bought one of them slippery dogs love the name, so when the time comes I will be having a go at that. thanks for watching matey and good to hear from you again It was a very nice long waited for feed of fish yum.
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 Good lure the Diawa hot dogs 😁 Go light tackle mate, 6lb braid, 6-8lb leader and cast down wind far as you can. Just skip it back and wait. If the trebles are biggish, try on size 8 or 10 ones. Flathead and bream will take them too. Good luck 👍
@@trevorbennetts1967 Thanks Trevor, I will add a hot dog to the collection as you recommend and yes will fish light and check the trebles, will be fun having a go thats for sure. Cheers mate.
gidday dave good to see ya fishing again
G'day Garry thanks mate, it was nice being out fishing again more to come hopefully.
Hi Dave, great looking beach.
Thanks for your vids, I make my own burley springs and burley now and tailor the burley springs to species I’m chasing.
I make a burley spring with a small cork in front for herring and it works great, slow sink rate to fish different water column areas.
With your burley I also mix in a can of cheap sardines in oil but I drain most of the oil into a container and soak my cork burly spring in the oil for extra attractant.
The great thing about fishing is you never stop learning.
Thanks again, love the vids.
Regards
Bryan.
Hi Bryan, thanks mate. You are right about fishing it is endless learning thats a good idea with the cork on the end off the spring for extra slow sink through the water column nice, also soaking it in oil before use, gee we are all always thinking it never stops. Thank you for posting your comment Bryan.....Cheers David
Love your vids. I like the quiet expertise.. and the love of nature.. well done.
Love your comment Andrew, thank you!
Nice to see you back Dave. I’ve got to try my hand at catching worms after watching this. Cheers mate😷👍🇦🇺🍷
Thank you, yes give the worms a go I have videos helping people how to catch them my number 3 one is maybe the best but all offer something its good fun also a challenge. I have also been watching all your videos and enjoying and hitting the like button I should put more comments for you. Cheers
I was fishing at Carrickalinga further down the beach the same day for yellowfin whiting but did come up to where you were fishing earlier in the day. Must have just missed you Dave.
Hi mate, it was windy wasn't it, just missed me well I would never have known. Did you have any luck with the whiting with the area you covered I started fishing down that way 1990 and the whiting were every where wherever I caught worms the whiting would show up I'm sure they new the worms would be popping up with the smell of the worm bag they started thinking out about 5 years ago quite sad. Good to hear from you again...Cheers
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 It seems every time I get down that way the wind blows up. I was fishing the other end where you sometimes fish with a couple of lures. Still haven't quite mastered them yet. Will use worms next time in the same spot as I saw some big ones there. Just hope the wind dies off soon. Maybe will meet in our travels sometime down that way. Shaun
@@tizjak07 I went down to that spot for a drive couple of weeks ago and saw a couple too I mentioned that on the video but didn't say where, I will be back there myself soon when time and weather permits, as you have probably noticed there are lots of places worth a cast around that area, 15 mins from where I live as Kyle Minogue would say, I could be so lucky
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 I just hope that the winds stop blowing and we can get some fishing done. Yes not to mention the spot ..Might see you there Dave sometime.
Another informative and entertaining video. Thanks David!
Thank you Andy, also nice to hear from you again mate.
My favourite fishing youtuber! I’m writing a fishing sa website at the moment and mention you in it!!
Hello mate thank you, Mentioning me in your SA fishing website thats a nice thing to do thank you again. You will have to throw me a comment when its ready for me to have a look. All the best with your website I'm sure it will be appreciated by a lot of fishing people and likewise... Cheers to you
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 thank you so much!!
It's always great to see you fishing Dave. Nice flatty. I've 2kg of flathead fillets in my freezer. So yum beer battered.
Thank you Steve, mate they are so nice I had mine beer battered and I wished it was like that Tim tam advert and never ran out simply delicious. I was on a roll once and had a bit in the freezer, eating like a king. Cheers.
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 haha, my missus loves that genie granting her unlimited Tim tams ad
Hi Dave good to see you back, thanks for another one of your great videos, you never fail to impress with the quality of your videos, you cover the basics so well for the young and new fishos, thank you very much
Hi Mike thanks mate, another nice comment as usual from you too matey.
Good to see you back online David. Thoroughly enjoyed your latest video. It's not always about the quantity of fish or their size. Just to be out there and catching fish is a pleasure in itself.
hi Gingerbeer01, firstly sorry late reply also thank you for watching you are right its nice just to be out and having a go and a few fish no matter the size is always good to take home to enjoy.
Welcome back David awesome footage of the worms you make it look easy some good fish too
Hi Troy thank you and good to hear from you again mate yes there has been a lot of practice on the worms over the years sometimes I do find them tricky though. The fish were very welcome and very tasty nothing better.
Very enjoyable video hopefully not too long before the next.
Cheers Wombat 😬🐾
Hi Collin, thanks for dropping by again mate, I am going to upload filleting the fish I caught on this video for a bit of a watch and I will try hard to get more done for you guys. Cheers Wombat and like I said before my nick name use to be Wombat. Cheers.
Hi David it was great to meet you today! Keep the videos coming.
Hi Trevor, thanks mate. It was nice to meet you too mate.
Hi Dave. Great video mate. You done well good catch will fill the belly for a little while. Looking forward to the next one you do. Catch up soon mate 😎
Hi Tony thanks mate, yes they tasted so good yes catch up soon bud.
Good job sir...strike🙂
Thank you!
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 🙏🙏👍
Hey Dave, really enjoy your channel…. and how you fish…Keep it up mate… can’t wait till next episode..👌👌
Hey David, happy to hear you enjoy mate and thank you for watching, my next episode is filleting the fish I caught and how to fix mistakes I did, I will try to get it uploaded soon. All the best Cheers David.
Great to see you back fishing Dave. We were at the same spot about 3 or 4 days before. Caught a few mullet on cockles and garfish using your gents and berley mix in the floats. I've got to have another crack at catching worms I reckon. I've saved the leftover gents in the fridge for a trip to Kingston week after next.
Thanks Kevin, nice beach that one with lots of fishing to offer. Yes have another crack at the worms frustratingly good fun for beginners but well worth learning. My son in law says f#%@ the worms but I say don't give up ha ha. Always good to hear from you mate.....Cheers
It's a good day when you see Davids posted a video. Great work once again. 👍
Thank you, you spoil me with your comment. nice to hear from you again mate.
Love your videos David! And love your maggots for bait even more. Hope to see some more videos from you soon. Especially now we are coming into the cooler months. Mullet and salmon seasons!
Thought I’d point out around 28 seconds in. Bottom left corner when your showing the beach you have caught some footage of a snake cruising in the sand as well 👍
Happy fishing 🎣
Hi Kim thank you and good to hear from you mate, wow you have got good eyes I never noticed that snake and neither did anyone else just goes to show things that we don't see when we are out and about except you of course. I'm going to upload a video filleting the fish I caught just for something to watch, and I will try and pop down to Waitpinga before the weeks end to see what the salmon and mullet are like down there at the moment. Cheers Kim ....David.
some great under water footage there David, and some great livies ;)
Thanks mate, that under water footage didn't turn out to bad ey I did like it too. some of them mullet were great bait size weren't they, legal ones of course.
Hi my friend David!! Nice catch worms as baits, same small size mullets are also good bait! Congra for the releases and wish you a good fishing summer with new spots from there.
I m so unpatient to see also bread as bait for melanur mullet and other species...!! rigs ..etc
Thanks for nice sea view bb!
Hello my friend Antonis, yes worms great bait yes also mullet we have a size limit on mullet in South Australia 21 centimetres so small ones get released they make great mulloway live and dead bait, more videos to come for you to watch. Thank you for watching and commenting. It is a beautiful beach.
Great to see you out fishing. We are headed over to Victor Harbour on sunday and hopefully I'll get to have a fish, maybe catch a few squid.
Hi Malcolm thanks mate, there is some good fishing around Victor Harbour, not too far away you will be seeing a video with my grandson Jackson, Simon my son in law and myself doing a bit of fishing down in Victor they live there and its all on there doorstep I'm not too far away, you might enjoy that one also a few more I have planned for down that way. I will get them done slowly but surely all the best mate and good fishing.
hi Dave, when all the borders and travelling is open again are you going to have any fishing catch ups or clinics for your followers to meet you.
Hi Mike, I think I would be a bit overwhelmed doing something like that, but I do enjoy doing this youtube and sharing and helping with fishing, it also helps me a lot too just keeping me occupied a bit extra in fishing which is great. I have met a handful of people when I have been out and that has been fun. I have been asked this before and would have never imagined it, its a nice gesture
Cheers David
What Is everyone's thoughts regarding YFW... So we know there are the Northern Flats YFW... above St Kilda, metro YFW North Haven to Kingston Pk, southern YFW Kingston Pk to Lady Bay....
Are they completely different ?
As in breeding stock... I'm thinking yes.. but not sure.
Pt Wakefield to Lady Bay seems as long way.
Where do the southern fish lay over at winter?
Gday mate glad to see you back i havent been fishing for ages doing a boat resto at the moment takes a lot of time up ,a good haul for an arvo that flatty will taste nice take care .
G'day mate good to hear from you, doing a boat resto would keep you busy will be nice when you have your first fishing trip out in her. I was happy with the catch did go down well after not having any fish for a short while, and yes the flatty was next level
I've always dug the "spaghetti worms" (that's what the old guy who taught me called them due to the markings in the sand. They leave a mark like someone dropped their spaghetti 🤣) along the metro coast. I've always meant to try catching the bung worm because, they are in the area I fish and catch worms. It looks like less work too!
I think the yellowfin are down in numbers partially due to the low summer temperatures we've had.
Hi there, them spaghetti worms sound like good worms I have dug other worms but I don't think them one's, thats funny like someone has dropped there spaghetti. Yes have a go for the bungum worms can be a bit tricky at first but I'm sure you will get the hang of it, yep better than digging for sure. hope you are wright about the whiting down this way they have been dropping of for a handful of years now, I did see a couple the other day though, I must go and have another go soon.
In my area in Indonesia, this caing is called rutus and lives in the sand
That is interesting, I have often wondered if these worms are any where else in the world. They are very good fishing bait as you probably know. Do you catch and use them for bait.
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 He's absolutely right, senior. We often use it for fishing in the sea or on shallow reefs and right now my friends and I in Indonesia are enjoying ourselves at the port. Coincidentally, there are tuna fish entering the bay and we are already at the pier at 4 am every morning looking for tembang or fish bait. sardens to be used as bait while they are alive and I have had various experiences with bait like rutus or sand worms, they really live in the sand and this is fish for all types of senior fish.
Hi David great video, hows life in Oz mate you lucky man, the beach looks bloody good. What a feeling having the whole beach to ones self, good to see you out doing a bit of fishing.Bob
Hi Bob, Life in Oz Hmm you little ripper Awesome we should keep appreciating what we have, that beach is truely beautiful its one of my favourite's with a lot to offer even these days you can go there during the week and have the best part all to yourself. It was nice to get out fishing I do stuff every day to do with my job but this time of the year I get more chances to go fishing so I will really try to get more videos done to watch. Cheers Bob.......David.
Awesome work as usual mate. Mullet season you say. I seriously have to get down there to get some fresh worms and some mullet and I'd certainly take that bycatch of a flatty anyday. Did you get out after this video and make another video mate?
Hi Darren, yep mullet season is now. Carry beach can be very good for mullet my favourite is parsons, waitpinga is good too they can be found at most beaches with burley, worms are good but not necessary for mullet if you can't get any for whatever reason, mince meat, mullet mince is dynamite also maggots even cockles will work. I use to catch lots infront of the bottom car park at Maslins beach first light also Sellics can be good too and you can drive on there, South Port beach, Christies beach, Osullivans Beach all can be worth a go. No haven't been back out yet but I have done a filleting video I may as well upload. Cheers Darren. Flathead so yummy.
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 pretty much all along those south beaches would be the go. Porties, sullies even Carry bit closer for me than Waits and Parsons, but i do like those beaches, can get a bit wild down there. Love the idea of catching my own worms for fresh baits but the chances of that is probably far less than me catching a fish and you know how much luck i have at doing that, haha.
Hi my friend Very nice video And water is so clear. A cool method to catch worms, what is the bait? Meat? And what long worms I have never seen such long ones.
Hi my friend thank you, they are big worms I have caught them 6 feet long the bait is a carp in the green bag like the ones you caught in your last video I did watch and give you a like I shall pop back and leave a comment the bait I am holding is a pilchard in a piece of stocking. good fishing my youtube friend.
What do you do with the carp when your finished worming? Still good for more sessions?
G'day Hayden, I let the crabs have it if there are no swimmers around or I take it home and feed it to my maggots, if you don't know I am the guy who breeds the maggots for bait (Sheldon's Bait). I have carp on tap for maggot food. but if I wanted I could pop it back in the freezer and take it worming a second time maybe not a third time though but you can try that they are very good and have a smell that keeps giving. All the best mate
Hey Dave?...Do you ever "dispatch" your fish in a way that makes them bleed out? Does this serve to improve the quality of the flesh? Especially for fish like mullet which, when I was catching them on the east coast a millennium ago, had a muddy taste.
I just saw you do what you do to kill the fish where you break the neck. You said that doing that will also bleed the fish. Thanks. I love your videos.👍😊👍
@@jenniferparkinson9411 HI, yes it is always best to bleed your fish for better eating also saves a lot of blood mess at home but just as important so they don't suffer to much, I myself have found mullet to be brackish flavoured or muddy I did go of them once for that reason but now I like them again especially out of the surf even more so out of my smoker they are the best. Thank you for watching Jennifer and you spoil me with your comment.
What do you do to preserve the worms for say the next day or 3 weeks down the track?
Hi Andrew, I just freeze them fresh with no sand or anything in a clean maggot container because I have plenty on hand usually around 8 worms per container. I have a video fishing with frozen worms if you haven't seen just for interest. I have been told by a few fishos if you add a bit of methylated spirits to the live worms for 20 seconds or so that preserves them and they are good for a long time and doesn't bother the fish, I have never tried that yet. If you are going to use the next day I keep them alive placed on a piece of wet hessian sack with a little bit of wet sand sprinkled on them and fold over the bag take home and put in a cool place not the fridge that will kill them that way they stay alive for 2 days and a bit more if you bring home a bit of salt water and keep the bag damp, at the end of my first worming video I show how I do that. All the best Andrew.
@@davidsheldonfishing9726 thankyou so much for the detailed reply
