I’m 48 and grew up in Northern NSW, fishing the Gwydir river. As a kid I was always given the job of getting the bait - digging worms for hours and catching yabbies by the hundred. These days we use chicken breast or chicken thigh. It’s fantastic bait and so easy to get.
Chooks ARE pretty easy to catch!
I’ll have to give it a try
We had live yabbies, cheese and European night crawlers out for hours then I put a piece of chicken breast out 10 min got a cod 55cm
Hey Robbie, I used to be a big guy too, but I changed, I had to re health. Anyway this worked for me. I stopped drinking booze and fizzy drinks, I went vegetarian (Avocados are your friend), I drank lemon water, slice a lemon and add water, hot or cold. 1 coffee a day. I ate a lot of dairy and eggs, avocado, cucumber and cream cheese. Lots of pasta and rice dishes. lost 30+kg. Didnt increase exercise, but I stayed activeish
Hey buddy thanks for the heads up.
My secret trout bait is worms soaked in cod liver oil.Deadly in NewZealand might be worth a try in Australia.
You're a bloody idea's man, Robbie! Definitely going to have to remember that one. Cheers!
Necessity is the mother of invention. Well done Robbie.
Thanks Deb. Haha Thay is one of my favourite sayings. It runs through my head every time I start packing way too many lures to go fishing, it too many cameras. Haha
That’s a bloody classic bait catcher, good stuff Robbie.
Haha thanks mate. A bit of bush engineering. Haha
I enjoy your vids I’m from the USA the state of Pennsylvania, I fish for a lot of different species but mostly trout, it’s interesting to see how other folks fish around the world and I picked up some techniques from you that I can apply here on creeks in my area and I’ve bin fishing for 59yrs. Great job.
Thabk you so much mate. Good luck with your trout fishing.
😆 great net repair Robbie. Good luck with the chair! What a great fishing spot you have.
Haha thanks Graeme. The net is going well but the chair is just too far gone. LOL
Mr. Jack of all trades, nice job with the net and little shrimp trap. Love the idea of the beef fat, seems perfect, but having the same problem with the Edward, water levels all over the place, temps all over the place, and the fishing seems hit or miss lately. Great job and look forward to seeing you use the 'secret' bait again!
Thanks so much Larry. This wet summer certainly had thrown a spanner in the works mate.
Can’t wait to see the secret bait Robbie keep up the great work mate 👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Thank you so much Rory.
Nice work as usual Robbie. 👍🤠
Thanks so much Mick.
Great vid mate love the make shift shrimp net.
Thanks Tezza. It worked a treat. Haha
A lovely bit of squirrel on the hook!
Robbie you just keep raising the bar mate. Always mixing it up. another enjoyable video.
Thank you so much mate.
Good job man. I'm fascinated with your can that caught the shrimp.
Thanks mate. I think McGuyver would have been impressed with that level of improvisation. Haha
LOL 😂 Improvisation at its best love it.
I always take with me Inghams Chicken Chippees (LOL that’s my secret bait) not nuggets because I find they are to chunky. I sometimes cut them in half or quarters. I find other brands of Chippees don’t have enough “body” in them. I caught but never got into the boat a huge cod on a piece of chicken Chippees about 10mm long, my gung-ho mate didn’t use the net correctly- head first only. Awesome video
Haha thanks Pete. Definitely head first only. I've seen so many fish lost at the net by people trying to net fish tail first. LOL
Mate , I can hear all the bait ya need around ya . Them cicadas are great bait up here mate 👍 great stuff mate 👍
Thanks mate. Its funny, I know that coe love cicadas, and yet I have never used one as bait.
@@robbiefishing there good bait mate they even catch birds but them Emu's will get the better of ya , so hang on to her mate 👍
Great video! might have to try this
Well done Robbie
GOOD to see that many trout cod that far down stream!
I reckon that was one of your best vids mate , you had a moment forgetting a few things but turned it around .
The Pepsi can shrimp trap is a winner , your an ideas man . hahaha.
Hahaha thanks Luke. The McGuyver shrimp trap. LOL
GOOD bit of improv. Chicken usually gets a few fish in fresh AND salt water!
I've been getting IN to the whiting the past few weeks! Had a few BIG feeds of whiting!
Had a feed tonight!
Thanks UF. Thays awesome. Are they King George Whiting? I caught some over 20 years ago at Portland. They were the easiest fish that I have ever filleted.
@@robbiefishing Yep! Common type in Vic & SA! There's been a LOT around in PP Bay!
NOT sure about Westernport however, haven't had a chance to try with the prevailing easterlies that blow every arvo, making the penninsula side unfishable most days land based!
It would mean driving ALL the way over to the eastern side to get an OFFSHORE wind, that would make it fishable!
As to whiting's filleting abilites, yes, pretty darn easy, & easy to debone!
Makes GREAT sashimi! 1 of those fish that are good raw OR cooked!
Some fish are only good cooked, & some only good raw, like salmon for instance!
Totally disgusting cooked, but raw, amazing!
That was like a mini live bait tank, everytime you need one it just worked perfectly
Haha thanks mate.
delightful Robbie....who knew you could create a shrimp catcher with a can! Clearly I still have lots to learn!
Haha I was channeling my inner McGuyver with that one mate. Haha
@@robbiefishing it was Robbie. Very clever!
Keep them coming mate happy cod fishing brah
Thanks so much for the support mate.
Any time mate
Hey mate. I have a cod in my fish tank she's been there for 10 years now and she lives on beef chicken pork and prawns.
Not the fat but the lean meat.
CHEERS
That's really cool mate. I believe they make great fish tank fish.
Love your videos
Thanks mate.
Loved the bait trap Robbie. The cod were unsociable, they weren't chewing the fat.
Hahahahaha yep.
Good one mate love the shrimp trap 👍👍👍👍👍👍 I’ve tried fat a few times I think we got a few catfish but that was bout it
Thanks Cam. I reckon it will work. It will take a month for the shrimp to destroy my bait, it is so tough. Haha
Such a good video Robbie. abit of a macgyver trip haha 👍
Thanks mate. Every time I think of McGuyver I think of the egg in the radiator to fix a hole trick. Haha
@@robbiefishing haha definitely a classic! My old man actually used to do that hahaha
Haha what a ripper video mate. Who would have know! You can use a can for a shrimp net and steak fat for bait!
Haha thanks mate. The more you experiment the more you learn. LOL
Way to go with the shrimp net brilliant idea good to see the diets working were gunna need a stronger chair
Hahaha I think so mate. LOL I have already replaced it. LOL
Nice work mate, I reckon that fat will work very well. Spewing about the huge bite you missed! I caught a 70cm carp on a huge cube of cheese and a massive hook the other day while fishing for cod LOL
Thanks mate. LOL I have never caught a carp on cheese. I bet you thought you'd hooked a huge cod. LOL
@@robbiefishing hahaha yep! I thought for sure I had a 90+ cod on the line LOL
hi Robbie on Sunday my rod got pooled in at the bethanga bay.
i hat to put a big sinker and hook and i got it back.
WOW Mate, you're lucky you go it back. Was the fish that pulled it in still attached to it?
Good job
Nice video Robbie hey I’ve destroyed a few of those chair’s in my day. I wont say i was over weight but I was over weight 🤣. Nice to see your ingenuity paying off with the shrimp net and the landing net. 👍🏻
Haha thanks Kev. They just don't make chairs like they use to.
@@robbiefishing unfortunately I’ve destroyed a few older and much sturdier wooden chair’s too. I (was) far bigger than you then, fifty kgs later the chair’s are safe now. 🤣😝
‘Ay ‘Ay Captain🤣🤣⚓️
Hahaha
You want to buy worms here in Wisconsin you have to travel 2….perhaps 3 blocks (in any random direction). Even in the dead of winter.
In answer to your question about Yellowbelly taking cheese, Robbie. In over 20 years of fishing the Murrumbidgee, I caught a 40cm Yella on some Colby cheese last week. I had another rod with a yabbie on a paternoster rig about a metre away from the rod with the cheese too.
Thanks Neil. That's awesome mate. Definitely something that I have never done.
Sorry I was running a bit late for the vid Robbie mate but I made it great vid 😂
All I can say is great video and Brett is not much of a mate if he couldn’t share some of his bait with you.😀
Hahahaha Brett is a champion.
Good job👍
Thanks mate.
Hi Rob love the vid
Great video robbie
Thanks mate.
Every time I go camping cook up a few extra snags with dinner and that’s bait for the morning, caught both cod and carp on them mate
WOW I've never heard of cod caught on cooked sausage. Haha thats awesome.
Robbie, that's the best part of the steak. Lol. That shrimp can was ingenious. Kinda makes you wonder why you'd pay for bait.
Thanks Mick. Haha I agree. The fat is the nicest part. LOL
great job robbie
Thanks heaps mate.
Good job mate I’ll test it aswell
Thanks mate. I is almost impossible for the cod to pull off the hook. Haha I will be trying it again.
How good is the improvisation! Time will tell if that bait was a mis-steak
Hahahaha LMAO.
Robbie mate rump steak 🥩?? Noooo I am starving lol 😆
Hahahaha The fat is the nicest part. It's taken me years to build uo the courage to cut the fat off. LOL
Noooooo
Hey mate, what brand of cheese do you use? Everyone I’ve tried just crumbles up when trying getting it on my hook.
Thanks mate great video
Hi mate, I just use any brand of tasty cheese. Whatever is obvious the shelf.
thank you so much mate
TroutCod..= male Trout x female cod.... nice mix..😄🤨☺
How good are the olight knives. Mine gets a good workout
I love mine. Absolutely awesome little knife. Brilliant.
Great video Robbie!! What river is this ? Cheers
Thanks Issy. I was in the Ovens River.
Totally off topic here but things are heating up here in Canada as I'm sure you are aware. I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for what you are doing. I'd rather be fishing BUT the government has messed up managing that so badly you more often than not end up striking out when you do get to the water.
Thanks mate. Thay really sux. Our fisheries managers do an amazing job here in my state. The next stage to my west, South Australia has the worst fishing in the country.
Now that really does suck. Seeing the kind of success you have makes me really want to come and try my luck. Maybe after the world settles down a bit.
I guess thats one way to fatten the cod up lol
Another awesome video robbie, by the way where is that location? If u can share plz
Thanks mate. It is the Ovens River.
Heh Robbie, It 's an Idea, but cook steak with fat on cut off and use cooked fat before you eat It, I know It will be hard to resist for you but maybe cod as well!
Shrimp can was very inventive Robbie. We must be related with that name lol, now what was it again?
Hahahaha I'm an absolute shocker when it comes to forgetting things.
Hey Robbie, how’s it going just wondering if you have ever caught a eel tail catfish or Australian cat fish?
Hi mate yes I caught an eel tailed catfish in a video on this channel before Christmas.
Macgyver Alexander shrimp traps hahaha
hay robbie you can allso use raw pork fat is best for cod fishing have used it and it works great
Up and down like a brides nighty you mean, Ha Ha
Great video, I’ll give this a go.
The next time your returning fish back in the water, try putting them back in a bit more gentle as throwing them like you do will actually kill them, it won’t kill them straight away but can happen over a day or two.
No disrespect mate, but how do I do that from that height? If I walk down to the lower ground then they are out of the water for too long and I risk having my other rod pulled in when I am not there.
These fish live in rocky gorge country in both NSW and Victoria when they tumble over ledges and small waterfalls.
I've actually jumped into the water from much higher and it's really not that bad.
@@robbiefishing you seem to have every excuse under the sun……have to walk to far……fish out of the water for too long………other rod might get pulled in……it’s got nothing to do with fish tumbling over rocky ledges or water falls…….or you jumping into the water from great heights…..
Just put the fish back into the water a bit more gentle and don’t throw them from great heights or they could die it’s not real hard.
A lot of fishermen or fisher persons actually hold the fish in the water and get some water through their gills before release.
No Disrespect to you or your channel I do actually like watching your videos.
A very good step to loosing weight, drop the carbs, it's simple, clear and unambiguous (no BS negotiations with yourself). Don't confuse simple with easy.
Should try put in in some garlic stuff mate
That was a video of not the best things happening robbie
In the spot where you are that is where I caught my first yellow bellie. It is also my only one though. It was about 20 cm
That's awesome, well done mate. 👍👍
Rump steak, mate next you'll be offering them a beer with it ... 🙂 Cheers PP
Hahaha Only certain beers. Some are too nice to share with fish. LOL
A little salt and pepper on your bait and you will catch a big fish.
Can you go to lake Eldon it’s bin stocking up I cached a 87 cm carp
As someone once told me bait is what you use when you’ve stopped fishing
That makes absolutely no sense.
Buy yourself a The Great Northern Extra Large Directors Chair from BCF. I weight 240kg and never had an issue with mine... :)
240KG??? WTF? I struggle at 93KG!!!
Thanks mate. I just bought 2 new chairs from Anaconda. They're both rated to 150kg. I'm under that so hopefully they last. Haha
What's your location an what river.
In that case I forgot to like and comment 😉
Hahahaha
Give ya $5 for that shrimp trap. 🐊
Haha It worked a treat. LOL
hallo Robbie, do I need a license to fishing in Murray River Victoria?
Yes mate, you need a NSW licence to fish the Murray. 👍
😂😂😂😂😂
Try bacon iv near try it but I got told it works
ROBO'S CURIOSITY SHOW...LOL
Where do Murray cod keep there money 💵??
Haha My guess is "In the river bank". LOL
Hallo my friend
Bro I thought you were using gum hahaha! Aye if you need help with weight loss advice hit me up and I'll help you out. Pretty good session though!
Thanks so much champ. I see a dietitian regularly. I'm armed with all of the knowledge. Its the will power that brings me unstuck. LOL
Rump steak, cheese and now all you need is to turn a bottle of BBQ sauce into a cod lure....LOL
Shane reading your comment my mind went rump steak, cheese, red wine.😄
@@donnamckinlay495 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Definitely need an assistant to bring necessary items and as a camera person. Missed hookups and bites are frustrating
Fat doesn't make you fat. True.
I've also got a secret freshwater bait but it wouldn't be a secret if I told everyone. 😂
Haha very true.
I have fished with fatty meat, but no results. Cheese is basically fat though.
Thats what made me think of it, assuming the fish are drawn to the fat in the cheese.
Hi Robbie we all get forgetful mate so don’t let it get to you,I need to ask you (I forgot what I was going to ask). I’ll get back to ya. 🤔😳
Hahahaha thanks for the laugh Allan.
Hey robbie do u want to sell some wilson slick backs
Hi Sandi, no sorry. They were gifted to me and I wouldn't feel right selling them.
Do you have any lures for sale
bit of furry rabbit would do well id rekon to rob🇦🇺
Jan Juk worms lol no bardi grubs available?
I didn't ask if there were any bardi grubs available. I wanted to fish with cheese for cod and worms/shrimp on my second rod for yellowbelly.
Keep the fat on the steak and ditch the potatoes.
Haha If I had my way I would just eat everything. LOL
My dietitian explained that the fat on red meat tends to cause problems with your vital organs.
Let me guess kangaroo meat
Haha D..E..D.. dead for the live shrimp!! I say that all the time when using live bait!! I’ve finally found someone who also says it too!! I’ve found my soul brother 😂
Hahahaha Love it. People take me seriously sometimes and I have no idea why. Every time I call an echidna a porky-pine people feel the need to correct me. 🤣🤣
You would be better to eat the steak fat instead of chewing through chairs. Lol!
Hahahaha
You want to patent that shrimp net, and make millions of dollars then give to me, because you won't remember how much you won?
come on mate this youtube shit is you're job you don't just forget stuff
So you've never forgotten to take something to work?
@@robbiefishing no mate never
@@paullang1961 LOL Of course you haven't.
Need the get off the sausages rolls and cokes Robbie once you start breaking chairs mate.
