Hi mate, thanks so much for watching and well done on your monster carp.

Nice carp Logan. That is getting into seriously big sizes.

Thank you so much for your great support mate.

Thank you so much for your great support.

Haha My old man use to tell me that I could talk underwater with a mouth full of marbles. LOL 😂😂

Good on you, mate. Robbie is a great teacher and if you watch closely, you will pick up a lot that he does not say outright, and in fact, may not even realise he is doing. Watch for these moments and they will really help you. You will know them when you see them.

Thank you so much for your kind words mate. Good luck with your fishing. 👍👍

Thanks mate. Haha I think it must have been. LOL

Thanks so much Rob. I hope you have a good night too. 👍

Mate, some days you can do everything and get nothing, other days put in no effort and have a ball. You have had some rippers up near the weir lately. I have enjoyed seeing them when you manage to get out. Been having a ripper trout season myself. 3 trips, fish on all trips, 35 cm the smallest, 57 the biggest so far. And then a day of 6 about 40+s. Hoping to get out again later in the week for another session on the creek in a different place. hoping for a brown as they are all rainbows so far. I feel bad because of the ease of access and watching Robbie put in so much effort is making me feel guilty. I get out of my car, walk 20 metres to the water and cast. Hardest thing is dodging wombat holes on the creek as I wander from hole to hole. Great to see ya. Hope the missuss is doing well mate. :)

@@AndrewFishman Wot's a trout? 😟

Thanks mate. I had to work hard for this one. LOL 😂😂

@@captainfrank01 Well, around your area, there seems to be plenty of the Swamp variety. You know the ones. The big brown things with rubbery whiskers. Swamp Trout are fun times.

Yeah but they’re not REAL trout 😢

Thanks so much mate.

Mate, don't I know those days, lol. Puddle jumping, then wondering if you should have stayed at the first spot when the fourth spot is not panning out...

Thanks mate, I agree. One small fish beats no fish. Fishless trips are the worst. Haha

Thanks mate, it took a while but I found a couple in the end. 👍👍

Yep. Some days you can bag out, the next with exactly the same conditions, nothing. Its a fish thing...

Thanks mate. They can be hit and miss, especially in the build up to when they spawn. Changing water temperatures can also shut them down pretty quickly.

Unwritten Rule of Fishing Number 1 - When you take someone to place you have talked up and fished without fail for years, you will NEVER catch fish. no matter how hard you try. The day before, the day after, ever the same day, you will catch fish but never with company. Unwritten Rule 2 - Associated to the totem fish, rule 2 dictates that if you miss a strike within 2 minutes of arriving to the spot with your chosen company, you will never catch a fish there with them. Move along now.

Thanks so much mate. You're not wrong about fishing being unpredictable.

Thanks so much mate. It's all about trial and error isn't it.

You’re completely right, it’s my dream to come and fish with you one time. ❤

Haha great idea. Thanks for watching Harold. 👍👍

Thanks Neil. I certainly do jabe my share of fishless trips. Haha I'm not sure what the go was on this day. Other people I know that went trout fishing that day also caught nothing.

@@robbiefishing Seems to happen with lots of different species from time to time. Often Cod shut down. You know they would be there but some days they're just not interested. Luckily there's always Carp to fall back on...they seldom fail to bite. Maybe cos there's so many of them.

Thanks mate. It sure is a tough time of the year.

Thanks mate, and I agree. 👍👍

Thanks mate. Oh, was there two? I only saw one. Sorry, I didn't get the other notification..I will catch up on comments here now and then go and check it out. 👍👍

@@robbiefishing Only because I think you'll like the fish. Incredible colours and she was big. Just a short one. Only a minute and a bit long.

Thanks so much Cam..

Thanks Geoff. Hopefully we get some rain and those tiny trout can come out, feed up and grow big.

Haha yep. 👍

Thanks mate. I use 50lb braid on my cod rod, which I also use to cast lures for yellowbelly.

Thanks so much mate. I never mention where I am fishing in these small waterways. They're not stocked and couldn't sustain too much pressure. The best thing to do is just get out there and explore mate. Try different spots and discover new places. Thanks for your great support. 👍👍

The best thing you can do is to look not at any particular spot, but at the features of those places. What is the water like? How do the flows act? Where are the undercut banks, overhanging rocks and trees? Watch where Robbie or others you watch put their lures, and ask yourself "Why there?" Then watch closely the little things in retrieve styles. Things that may not be conscious. Like seeing a fish and pausing the lure for just a moment as the fish orientates, then twitching and striking just right to get the result. These things we do are from experience and can be learned, but we don't often realise what we are doing we are just doing it through long years of habit and practice. If you watch closely, these are the things that will really pick your game up. Ask "Why there? What retrieve style/speed is he using? What little things is he doing like rod jiggles and lifts?Where did that fish come from to hit the lure? What pools does Robbie hit hard, which does he pass by and what is the difference between them?" In short, learn HOW to fish, not WHERE to fish. Where to fish on any river is more valuable than having a couple of honey holes and not knowing why they fish well.

@@AndrewFishman hi Andrew, thank you so much for you help. Definitely some great tips here. Thanks again 🎣

@@lukemerriman7939 A pleasure mate. Hope you get a whale 😄

Haha sorry Jeff. I definitely didn't intend to trick anyone. I just wasn't sure what to call the video as it has 2 different types of fishing in it. LOL

@@robbiefishing all good mate just thought you would get a chuckle out of it I did anyway loved the day with you great video to actually show what you do to entertain us

@@jeffbaade8480 haha thanks so much Jeff. I hope you are both doing well. 👍

Thanks so much Toby. WOW that is impressive mate, well done. Is the colour called Blue Steel?

@@robbiefishing ohhh my bad Robbie, it’s purple storm 😂😂 I can see why I have to where glasses now 😂😂

Hahaha thanks Mike. Thanks for watching. I hope you are all having a great week mate. 👍👍

Haha

Thanks mate. Haha I have tried them a few times but the bones are just ridiculous. LOL

LOL The ankle has been fine but the bottom of my foot has been really sore ever since I filmed this. LOL

Hi mate, you know those annoying adds? They pay my wage. This IS my full time job. 👍

@@robbiefishing oh thanks for that info

Hi mate, I sure have that I will be sharing during the winter months. I also have a yabby catch and cook video coming out next week. 👍

Hi mate, she had school that day.

Hi mate, I reckon that is an absolute load of crap. Nothing more than a myth. I reckon the next flood will provide amazing spawning conditions for carp and there will be millions on the creek regardless of how I treat mine anyway. But dead carp cannot spawn. One the mum is dead the eggs will die very soon after.

Thanks for getting back to me clears it up really cos I love fishing don't mind stomping a carp head or two ahahaha but the small is god awful.

Define "Beats". A small carp will pull a large trout backwards in a tug of war. They fight harder than any trout. They get bigger. They are just as wary and can be just as picky and hard to catch. Swamp trout are, in fact, my favourite trout fishing.

Hahahaha 😂😂🤣

Thanks Pete. Carp save the day. Haha

G'day Frank, you finished putting up the Kangaroo Island vids yet? I missed the first 2 and decided I would watch them in bulk when you were done, then it got to 5 then 6 and I am thinking, jeez. I need a month to catch up, lol.

@@AndrewFishman Hi Andrew, yes, all finished and moved on to non-fishing Tasmania trip vids now! I think you will enjoy the KI series, it features the typical fisherman rock chair as usual! Put the kettle on 😁

@@captainfrank01 Mate - BINGE time!

Thanks Frank, yeah it certainly didn't go to plan. LOL 😂😂

@@robbiefishing Yep, well that's fishing!

Thanks mate, and I agree. 👍👍
