    Literally nailed the guess on the 38 mate, I caught a 38 not long ago and was like that looks the same 😅
    A 35+ I always think is going to be over 40 when in the water, you pick it up and then start to umm and arr you know it's a 38 😅😂
    Well done on an awesome Kmart gear session, you should do a hand reel session for big fish on the Parra one night 👍
    Spewing about losing that mystery big fish after the Breambo, I guess it was mulloway but I wasn't fighting it haha, no big head shakes it had to be a ray of some kind...
    Another 2 nice Bream to end the video I thought that second one was going to be another 38 😅😂
    I enjoyed it as always legend, I'm going to have to try this spot soon 🎣

    • @oijosh6286
      @oijosh6286 Před 6 měsíci +1

      I reckon you're right, I've caught a heap of them at night , usually on a piece of yakka too. Although it could've been a port-jackson , they also often grab bottom baits at night . But if I had to pick one I'm with you on the shovel-nose.

  • @kirk2632
    @kirk2632 Před 7 měsíci +1

    it is a stingray, reason for that is when you were fighting the fish sometimes it becomes heavy, that when those red stingrays bury him self in the sand and then once you pull them out of sand you then feel much lighter when pulling them back. I fight them in upper parra river with soft plastic and saw them doing this in front of me.

    Good session mate, and thanks for showing how you don't have to spend a fortune to go fishing. Have to tell you a story: I was up the coast in a little fishing tackle shop looking at all the lures, when an old bloke came past and said "mate, these lures catch more fisherman than fish". Had a chuckle...

Landed a 12 pound Snapper on one and it was bent right down to the butt. Reels they come with are not flash so I swap to little Shimanos from 1000-3000 sized. Keep one in the car to have a sneaky fish here n there. Cant stop smiling each time I use one.

      Fishing hooks are specially designed to breakdown overtime . Fish that are gut hooked have a much better chance of survival when you cut the line rather than when you try to pull the hook out.

      @@CoolestMoth45 Fish hooks take months to break down, if it is gut hooked the chances of survival with a hook in its guts is very very low, better to kill it quickly than a slow death.​
