Catching dinner from my local shore - a hard evening down the bay but ya can't win them all....

- Although my old spots down my local don't produce like how they use to back in the day, it's still fun to head down and flick a few baits every now and then. Every now and then you can pick up a nice fish or two but in now days most snapper caught are around that 35-40cm.
When Pea and I first started fishing the Bays from the rocks, the average fish caught was around 8lb. We use to get plenty of double fig fish from 13-18lb and each season we would land a few 20's with a couple magic ones around 26lb.
The best I ever pulled from the Bays was from Torbay, and still is my PB for off the rocks going 98cm (28.9lb) guttered so could have reached that magic 30lb mark.
Now days I don't go to hard out down the bay knowing it won't produce like this anymore but it's still fun to head down to try and catch a couple for dinner.
Having a high tide close to dark I decided to go see if I could pick up a fish or two for tea. We had a nice swell rolling in a few days prier, and I do love it when the tides coincide with the end of a swell and darkness. Although the swell had died 4-5 days beforehand, and would loved to of been fishing a day after this, the tides didn't allow me to fish my spots but I was hoping a fish or two would still come in mooching.
It does get a little frustrating with all the pickers that have now taken up residence along the bays but there always a chance for a feed at least. I got to my spot a couple hours before dark and set up the Kotare and my 10ft Tournament concept rock rod. As predicted the pickers were there in force but as the bait created it's own berley there were a few nice little bites every now and then. In the end I was able to land just a kahawai and one takeable snapper for tea - not my usual fishy outing but still a joy able one any way. - Zábava
Cracked up hard at 18:33 when the rod was jiggling hard and it went dead as soon as you turned around.
Hahahahaha yea it is weird how that happens....

Bro thank you so much for your fishing content I found your channel over a week ago and I've been religiously watching them.
Today is Father's day and I took my tribe fishing using what tricks I learnt from your channel and it got us on to some beautiful kahawai. The joy it brought me seeing my kids eyes light up when we started catching fish was priceless it was our first time with tight lines 🤙🏾
Mad content bro keep up the mean mahi
That's awesome t - there's nothing more satisfying than seeing your young ones catching fish and loving the outdoors. I love hearing/seeing stories like this, it makes all my fishing vids that much more worth doing....
Keep them out there doing it as much as you can so they can carry on your legacy with their kids
Tight lines👌🎣🙂
Man that intro music calmed my soul after a crappy work day shot bro
Good to see the large pillie in the kahawai's stomach, the last kahawai I got out there had been eating anchovies by the look. There are a lot of bait fish in close right now, with big boil ups between the Bays and Rangi, hundreds of sooty terns are following them around, good times:) Nice clip, cheers.
Cheers for all the informative vids Jason, you inspired me to buy a brand new fc430 , it’s been built right now , should be ready for me in a couple of weeks.
Cheers Dave
