  • In this episode I finally get the new little boat offshore to catch a feed of fish and also show the importance of setting your sounder up with a simple setting that allows you to find and see small isolated reefs that produce quality fish. I also drop the underwater drone down to the bottom to compare this with sounder images on the same spot. Fish caught and seen were Pearl Perch, venus and black spot tuskfish, moses perch, green jobfish, morwong aka slatey bream, gold spot cod, sharks and more. Sounder used is a furuno FCV-800 and Furuno TZ3 with furuno side scan.

    Another cracking video mate! Always pick up a few tips and tricks to try. Sharks are beyond a joke now offshore Fraser. Even got smashed up and followed around by a 3m bully in close 10-12m the other week which has never happened before. We did notice being the only boat out one day that we got left alone. More boats seems to mean more sharks i think.

  • @davidk5832
    @davidk5832 Před 5 měsíci +1

    I know when your making a you tube video it's not an option but I use an electric to beat shark's when fishing spot's i know hold demersals.. i don't give a crap what people say.. it's still fun.. and you can go back to traditional approach with a jig on the way home at some wreck once the esky is looking 👍 .. better to waste trevally and AJs then quality bottom fish

    • @gregswickedfishing
      @gregswickedfishing  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Hey mate yeah unfortunately we've used electrics on demersals in the past and the sharks still smash the bigger fish then we have an issue of fighting big sharks on heavy gear on the electrics which is a nightmare. Some of the smaller fish you can get away with it but.

      @gregswickedfishing that's good info.. it's great your getting results in your local area as well.. I am lucky in that I live at Yeppoon but with the price of diesel and petrol these days trips up here from brizzy would be ridiculously expensive.. and given those bar cod and pearlies you got off brizzy who's complaining 😀

      All the sharks we encounter are big and of no use to us. We can't keep them over 1.5mtrs either. If you want a bit of sport then I guess you could but not something i'd want to do much off.

    😂your lucky your not on the west coast..we travel 80km offshore to fish in 50m and then we can only catch 2 demersal each with a boat limit of 4 fish but that's only when the season is open half the year, mostly in the bad weather months.
