Live baiting techniques for big Snapper and Cobia. I also put the underwater drone down on an amazing rock structure which was loaded with jewfish and mangrove jack from the offshore grounds out from Brisbane, Moreton Bay, Australia.

Hi Greg, an awesome twosome with the big snapper & big cobia, along with the other snapper shown looks like you had pretty good day. The drone footage is exceptional with those jew just schooling around and they don’t appear to be remotely interested in feeding on the footage. Say hello to the old man for me. 👍 Shane Mc

Absolutely brilliant video as always Greg! Some great snapper fishing there, and that cobia was a donkey 👌 I’m loving your underwater footage too. Do you have a theory on why the jewwies swim down and rub themselves on the sand? I’ve heard of them doing the same thing in surf gutters. Some fishos think that the worms smell their slime and poke their heads up, but that could be an old wives tale. It was interesting to see them do it in your video here. Keep up the great work mate 🎣🙌

Watching your videos is both enjoyable and educational, Greg. Why do you prefer to use mono when float lining, is it because the line drifts down slower and the bait presents more naturally?

@gregswickedfishing 11 ай бұрын

Thanks heaps Bruce I really appreciate the kind words mate. Yeah the mono has a slower sink rate and the fish feel a lot less when they grab the bait.

@gregswickedfishing Жыл бұрын

Typical Jewfish to be honest mate. You will often only catch one or two from a school like that at the best of times. Targeting them at night can make a big difference same goes for the dusk and dawn periods. When they don't want to feed they get a bad case of lockjaw.
