hey mate, thanks a lot! very kind words

Thanks legend! Definitely something I should do more- probably some good fish to be had off those beaches in your yak too!

@@LightTackleAnglerWA Haha indeed there are - hope to get out soon once life slows down a bit!

thanks mate!

thanks mate, glad you enjoyed!

thanks mate! I've been trying to have some variation recently but I'd say i'm a bream fisherman above all else so there'll be more for sure!

hey mate, thanks a lot! I was just talking to a guy out fishing who's in the same boat as you. Definitely some different fishing options here compared to back in the UK - exciting stuff! And you're right - the ultralight is the way to go here for consistent fun. Glad you enjoyed! Let me know if you have questions - the world of fishing youtube can be a bit misleading for someone new to Perth- land based Mackerel and Tuna videos down at Ammo Jetty get a lot of views but aren't necessarily reflective of what you can expect. As I said though - plenty of light tackle options that are well worth your time, especially coming into summer!

@@LightTackleAnglerWA I love my light lure fishing. We have plenty of Perch fishing back in the UK (you call them Redfin). Can’t wait to get out and species hunt for stuff here. Got Bream, Flatty and Herring on the radar first and hopefully who knows what else. 👍🏼

thanks Andy, big fan!

Interesting! thanks for the tip

thanks mate, was a nice change of pace

I'm from Bunbury and just getting into light gear . Any particular areas you target in Busselton if you don't mind me asking. Thank you

@@peter18610 literary beach, either side of jetty 100 to 500 meters in either direction

haha thanks mate! I use a chest mount. It films it well but it took some time to figure out, my first few videos weren't filmed very well but finally getting the hang of it.

Thanks a lot mate! I have been thinking about making one, yeah. Landbased, i'd like to get out at sunrise to target them which isnt something i get to do often as a Dad but if I get the chance i'll definitely head to a Freo Rockwall and give it a go!

thanks for the support mate! Don't get to go out early often but if I can, canning bridge tailor will definitely be something to consider! seems like a good spot for them at the moment

I went today and got 2, 45cm tailor. They fight hard af on 1-3kg rod the drag be sizzling

@@Perthfishin were you using lures or bait?

thanks mate, this was a beach in Fremantle. You can use whatever you feel comfortable with and catches you fish, no one lure is better than another (within reason) especially for flathead

thanks mate

yeah, daiwa infeet 732 and td black 2500d. I have fancier stuff but honestly this combo is 95% as good as even the most expensive one - works great for any type of light tackle fishing.

@LightTackleAnglerWA I agree the Infeet are one of the best value rods I've used. I personally have a 722 ULRS and for me it's the perfect hardbody/jig setup. Soft in the tip so you don't pull hooks but heaps of backbone. Usually my go to rod for the type of fishing you're doing. I've paired mine with a 1K Stradic FL for an ultra light setup and pulled in decent size pinkies, flathead and salmon on this setup. I'm a Shimano man mainly but I love the light rods Daiwa comes out with especially the Infeet series

@@thetoyota86perspective54 totally agree mate. Also a fan of shimano reels, i have a vanford that i've been too lazy to service but is arguably better than the td black. as you can tell I spend way too much on this stuff but everybody spends too much on something hey!

hey mate, as with most forms of fishing, I actually think that tide trumps time. On a basic level i'd say a few hours either side of high tide is ideal, but at a lower tide you can still find fish if you find structure like dropoffs. If you're south of the river, South Beach is a good place to start. It has more structure than other beaches in the area. Between Freo and Trigg there are plenty of beaches with reef or weed like south cott, leighton or grant st (an old favourite). North of Trigg has great ground, North Beach has herring and even yellowfin whiting (kind of a secret spot but this comment is way too long for anyone else to read). Herring don't need much chop (wind) so a light easterly is great. Hope this helps

also any light 1-3 or 2-4kg rod will do well for microjigs, heavier rod will cast heavier lures like halco twisty. 2000-2500 size reel, 4-10lb braid, 4-10lb leader.

@@LightTackleAnglerWA hey bud just wanted to say thanks for the tips, went out today and bought myself my first new rod and reel in years, sick little light gear set-up, hopefully get out sunday morning down freo way and get into some herring on a nice little slice!!!!. cheers bud, tight lines!!

@@kieranpalmer9045 hey mate, love to hear it! nice wind for it this morning- high tide too. southern section of south beach is a good place to start. just watch out for dogs!

freos great, just have to be careful to avoid the blowies, and remember you cant use wire trace in the metro area

mid to late morning from memory but it was a while ago now

@@LightTackleAnglerWA oh ok that’s good cause I wanted to go tomorrow near there ,what time works the best because in the arvo it is always windy so I gotta go in the morning but don’t know at what exact time

@@nicoloscarpa9683 doesn't matter very much there, i'd go early to avoid crowds

@@LightTackleAnglerWAwhat do you think about going like in the morning today or tomorrow or is the weather too windy?

south mole will be okay in the northerly wind@@nicoloscarpa9683

Thanks a lot mate! It's the 732lfs. Good for plastics but also has some flex for keeping trebles in.

@@LightTackleAnglerWAThanks mate
