- In Episode 19 Bugsy takes us down to a ledge in Sydney Australia for some land based lure fishing targeting Yellowtail Kingfish. Bugsy will be mainly focussing on topwater lures including floating stick baits and pencil poppers. Sydney has a number of premier rock fishing locations. Fishing off the rocks is a dangerous activity and safety should always come first. If you are going rock fishing check the swell conditions, wear a lifejacket, wear rock cleats or spikes, wear light clothing that you could confidently swim in, and fish with a friend to keep an eye out for each other. Remember to do your part to look after our fish stocks too. If you are going to keep fish, look after them and only take what you will eat. Take your rubbish home with you or throw it in the bin. Respect and preserve our natural wonders. Thank you

Great sesh Bugsy! Know those stones! ;) Good to see you exploring on all the new gear bro! - SMITHY 😉🤙🎣🐟
Cheers Smithy! So much fun
I hear Rick makes some awesome homemade stickbaits, you should buy one off him and give them a review! 😁
That's an idea. He makes some beautiful looking lures!
Looks like an awesome ledge mate, how good is that new lure feeling 👌🎣
We're fortunate to have some good ledges in Sydney. New lure feeling is good. Cheers
Nice one Bugz!🏴☠️👊🎣
Cheers legend!
*A new friend came to say hello with a complete package with 👍🔔 a new color and a glass of warm coffee for my best friend 🥳🥳🥳*
Thank you brother!
Nice catch master...
Cheers brother!
Depends on what you like doing but i have caught alot of kings on live squid they cant resist it.
Yeah for sure. I have been focussing on lures lately but I should try bait again soon
New subscriber from London. Awesome stuff. 👌
Awesome! Thank you!
@Bugsy Fishing where abouts in Sydney is this bro? Im coming there nxt month and would love to give it a go.
TIA
@@Nomad_joey you are going to turn up at prime pelagic season. Everywhere will be firing. Sydney Harbour and Botany Bay are heating up. I avoid naming spots to respect the crew who fish them regularly
@Bugsy Fishing cheers dude. Im sure I will find some good spots. Keep the good work
Great Videos mate keep it up👍.. can I just ask where that spot is please 😊
Cheers mate. This is in Sydney. I fish both north and south of the bridge. Both have their days. Still lots of pelagics in the harbour and Botany Bay at the moment. I don't name exact spots
I got busted off today by a massive Kingfish. My mate recorded the fight and looked to be over a metre at the surface. Biggest kingee ive lost that's for sure.
Wow... that would've been cool to see
Hey legend how do you like the ocean legacy rods? Contemplating going the 10ft or a 9ft6 demon blood for a upgrade
Hey Harry, I've just got that one Ocean's Legacy rod the Specialist PE 2-4 9'8" and it has been great. Resilient to life on the stones and the action is good for shore jigging, stick baits and spinning minnows. I'd get another one for sure
Just a quick question is the shiny part of the Shimano lure supposed to be slightly twisted because my exact same one came in but the flash boost is slightly twisted
Good question. I'll have to have a look at mine and get back to you
@@bugsyfishing alr alr thx very much appreciated
Pity we don't get the kingies like they catch in NZ. The Lateral Line boys consistently pull out 1m+ kingies.
Totally! I enjoy those Lateral Line videos. Looking forward to getting over there for a fish one day
There are lots of metre plus Kings off the stones.
I just purchased a Zenaq Muthos Accura 100HHH. Looking for a pe8 reel. Do you still recommend the saltiga 20k?
Hi Ashley, that's a serious rod. Yes, I am happy with the Saltiga 20k. It is overkill for Sydney though. But I bought it because I could only afford one and wanted one I could use overseas for doggies etc too. I think a 14000 with PE6 would be more appropriately matched to kings off the rocks in Sydney but you never know ... might get a chance at one you need a 20k for
@@bugsyfishing yeah same. It'll be overkill for me but want a op reel for GT in the future. I read the retrieve rate is 143cm p turn. Is that too fast for stickbaits and poppers? Thx.
@@ashleyedmonds9909 nice. I haven't had an issue with using it for stickbaits and poppers. The retrieval rate seems fine. You soon adjust
Where’s this mate looks beautiful
Sydney ocean ledge. I'd prefer not to giveaway exact location. Lots like this though in the north and the south
Where is this place?
Hi Rudolph, this is in Sydney. Most of the Sydney spots are fishing well at the moment including in Sydney Harbour and Botany Bay. I don't name exact locations to respect the crew who regularly fish these spots
you mind sharing were this is man
Hey mate, I am sworn to secrecy on exact location. It is a Sydney ocean ledge. All have their day. This was a fun morning
Whats this locations name?
I prefer not to share the name. Sydney ocean ledges all fish pretty similarly
