What helps determine best areas to concentrate trolling on, ie what to look for on Bom temp and current ? How far down the coast do you chase YT?

@almcglashan 3 жыл бұрын

Water temp colour and current all play a role plus signs of life and especially bait. We chase them Down to bass strait

I’ve still got an old two banga 90 but the 4 blade prop held soo much to clean off the wash. The ol Venus trolls great at 7-9 knots clean as

@alf0rrana 3 жыл бұрын

Nice video,... now let me ask... if you were to target 100 -150 kg bluefin tunas, how do you set the drag on the reels (how many pounds for the strike, and I'm guessing you apply more pressure progressively as the fish wears out). It would be awesome a quick video on that matter! Thanks a lot from the Mediterranian!!

@almcglashan 3 жыл бұрын

When we are targeted big bluefin we fish 80LB gear and fish 10-14kg irrespective for the fish we are fighting !!

Hi Al, great stuff! Do you slow at all after the strike? Cheers

Yeah slow down but downs stop to avoid tangles!

Hi Al, I know this was released a while ago but in regards to not trolling into the current, if you have to generally head in that direction does zig zagging help to negate this phenomenon or do you just tend to motor up current and start again? Thanks,. John.

yeah thats the best option

Awesome channel! Does the 'don't troll into the current, go across' hold true for freshwater lakes too? I've done good pike and smallmouth trolling here in Canada but never considered this

When trolling spreader bars and skirts, is the objective to keep them splashing on top or a couple feet under the water?

@almcglashan 2 жыл бұрын

yeah skirts and spreader bars are all surface oriented. dredges and deep divers are subsurface

If money isnt too big a deal try a sharrow marine prop, really cleans up the wash its amazing. ~~ 4-5k a prop but honestly worth it

Hey Al & Team, Really enjoy your content. Thanks What sort of depth were you getting your fish and port are you fishing from? Love the boat I’ve been to the sydney agent Looking at the 650 htf. I would really like to see it in some shitty westerlies to see how it performs. Cheers Dan

Hi Al, you mentioned not not catching anything when trolling into the current, why would you not catch anything? Please excuse my ignorance if it's common sense.

to be honest I couldn’t tell you why its just something we have always noticed
