How to Drift Fish the Twizel Canals

Рет қаралды 105,706

Күн бұрын

It's been a while since we released our first video of Softbaiting the Canals. Since then the fishing and methods have changed with less salmon around but a higher concentration of big trout. We have been developing a very effective method for catching fish and it's by drifting eggs and glowbugs. We give you all the tips and tricks in this comprehensive how-to video so that you can have a fantastic time fishing this world-class fishing resource.
For all the great gear you'll need to master this method visit the canal fishing section on our website: www.completeangler.co.nz/info...

thanks Malcom, can you tell me what fish finder you are using, cheers

@marklayland5424 4 жыл бұрын

Hi, what sizes and make of hooks are you using on the eggs?

@waynerandles6126 3 жыл бұрын

Hey malcom great advice have you tried float fishing the eggs so as you can detect bites or is this not practical.

Hi, I'm heading there in the next few days. I have Tazzie devils and Toby lures. Would they work with this technique?

@CompleteAnglerNZL 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Tim, tazzies and tobys work fine,. If there is current they are best fished on the drift like a soft bait - on the swing. If there is no or little current, let them sink and retrieve them slowly for best results. When you do let them sink, pay attention as the fish will often grab them on the way down like a fluttering jig. Cheers Malcolm

what braid, pound etc do you use?

@CompleteAnglerNZL 5 жыл бұрын

Hi I'm using 10lb braid. Having tried all sorts, in my opinion the best by far is Daiwa Evo www.completeangler.co.nz/daiwa-evo-tournament-braid-10lb-150m-5135

How deep is the canal?

@huntzz21 5 жыл бұрын

So how exactly do you use a "sounder"? I'm not even sure what you are talking about as I think it's getting a little lost in translation between there and here in the US.

@prettygreen6085 5 жыл бұрын

huntzz21 look up something called a ‘deeper. It’s an orange and black ball

@newzealandadventures2665 4 жыл бұрын

A sounder is a fish finder. It uses radio frequency which bounces off the fish, this information is then translated to the phone screen showing black images of fish travelling past the “sounder” this is how you know where the fish are

What landing net would you recommend?

@CompleteAnglerNZL 6 жыл бұрын

Hi Craig, the net that the staff uses is the McLean Saltwater Measure & Weight XXL. This it big enough and long enough to land the huge trout we are catching down there. It's got a strap so that you can wear it on your back. This is the way to go. www.completeangler.co.nz/mclean-saltwater-measure-weight-xxl-rubber-landing-net-3925

Have you ever tossed spoons at those monsters? Maybe try drifting a Dick Nite brand micro spoon? Dick Nites are the ticket for Salmon/Steehead in the Pacific Northwest rivers/streams.

@SRial100 3 жыл бұрын

Seen lots of fish get caught on spoons last weekend. Worked a treat on letting them sink to.bottom and slow retrieve

@@firepvp4968 I did a lot of research and found if your gear is decent it doesnt matter. Been reeling closed my entire life. Besides they're designed to close when you reel. As for cross line knots. Ive had 0 of those in my entire life. To each their own i suppose.
