In this video we head to Moggill Creek in Brisbane, Australia, to see what native fish we can catch! We have a variety of beautiful rainbowfish that are native to the area, and many varieties can be found in the local creeks. These fish are commonly kept in aquariums here and can look absolutely spectacular!
Timestamps:
1:57 - Arriving at the creek
2:40 - Setting up the fish traps (SUPER easy)
3:23 - Putting the traps in the water (so many fish!)
6:20 - Drone footage of the creek
8:01 - Checking the fish traps
12:32 - Catching rare fish!

Today I learned that Vegemite is so popular in Australia that even the native fish love it too...

Hahaha, it's so true!

@user-ho8sr7mu9l 4 ай бұрын

The reason they use vegemite in bait traps up north is because it doesn't attract crocodiles. If you use fish food or something that smells like meat or fish, the crocodiles come and eat the traps.

Been setting up a new aquarium, and was researching rainbowfish, as I kept some store bought ones last time around (near 14 years ago).... You have inspired me to go "fishing" again... I used to go out to the creeks around Brisbane some 25 years ago, mostly just after Platty's, and whatever else I could find. ....Time to go fishing again, with new advice. Thank you, you're a gem :)

Awesome. Well done with the drone. I have an older Mavic Mini which needs a phone attached to see anything. The app needs to be updated before I use it again though. Who knows when that will be though, I just had a total hip replacement so it will possibly be up to 3 months before I can throw on a backpack and go hiking again. Car camping could be sooner though. I still haven't built the above ground pond I wanted but I have the pump and filter for it. Anyway, great video as usual, love your work. 😃

@Kaityscichlids 4 ай бұрын

Thank you so much :) I think that older Mavic Mini is the one I used to have too - still a really good drone! I hope that you have a strong recovery and can get moving again soon! And hopefully not too long until you'll be able to get your pond built too

@thebloodyenglish6620 5 ай бұрын

Might also be worth bringing a tub/tray that can fit the bottom part of the trap nets with you in the future. That way you can fill them with water and keep the trap in the water when inspecting fish without having to go back and forth from the river. Obviously I know they're fine, as you know as long as they stay damp fish can be out of the water for a surprising amount of time. But visually it looks better for people who are new to fish, plus I'm sure it's more comfortable for the fish too 😅

@Kaityscichlids 5 ай бұрын

Yes I totally agree!! It's funny how you just get desensitised to things overtime, so it's always a good reminder to think see it from other peoples' perspectives. I think I'll definitely do that next time!
