Absolutely

That's crazy . I bet you were shocked to see what it was

@@ScaleUpadventures sure was

Thanks mate appreciate it.

About an hour north of Sydney mate

They go pretty well. You get the odd one crack when using larger sinkers. But they are so cheap, I don't mind. I'm not sure of the weight rating. I will find the pack and see if I can find out for you.

I totally agree support local guys like holt Productions. I would never but from another company that has copied their design. So wrong

Thank you

Thank you . Was very sad

Thanks Jo

Thanks for sharing mate. Terrible what we see but that's all part of life. Make the most of it as you never know when it's all over .

Drowning with no head?

Yeah I know what the cause is but not my place to be saying

Yeah he floated down stream with the tide. I can't say I noticed a tattoo but then again I was in a bit of shock . Once we identified it was a person straight on the phone to the cops

Cheers mate will do when I see you next

Hi Mitch. Nothing found on the news. Did find out a bit more from the police a couple of days later. But don't feel it's right sharing to much detail publicly.

A mate and I were doing drifts under the bridge at about 2am that morning and there was a guy pacing back and forth up on the bridge and kept looking over the railing just next to the fishing platform and I even said to my mate 'whats this bloke doing' because it was odd. After learning what happened, I believe it was this man you found. It was almost like he was waiting for us to leave

It's possible, but there was no rope on that bridge. I think it might have been from a bridge further upstream. From what I heard, he was from the strathpine area.

@@ScaleUpadventures odd coincidence then perhaps but what make me believe it is that apparently it was a thin length of wire and we watched ses out there 2 days later searching and found something on the sand bank under the bridge about 200m towards Brighton and guys in wet suits in a dingy come out and took it away in a big white bag... Makes you wonder..

Thanks mate that's a great idea. I will take a look might have to give that a go.

They come into a shallow as 2 meters of water early in the morning

North of Brisbane. Pretty much any suburban creek or pond will be full of them.

Yeah that would be fine 1 swiver works great. The only reason I use two is when surf fishing you can get a lot of line twist so the 2nd swivel helps reduce any tagles.

@@ScaleUpadventures Yes! The dreaded line twist. I'm sold. Thank you!

Good luck hope you catch plenty

Hi Gary.. I have put a link to these clips in the description of this video if your interested in getting some.

Definitely fun creating memories and teaching them new skills

Thanks mate

That's true. I didn't have a boat for 40 of my 43 years either. You will find most of my videos are landbased as it's how I learnt all my fishing .

@@ScaleUpadventures definitely bring on more landbased please!

Definitely will be very shortly

I wish we could they are delicious. Unfortunately law says we have to dispose of them straight away and not transport them in any way.

Thanks for the great tip. Lucky it didn't spit on me. I'm going to make another set soon so will give this a go 👍

You should never tie braid straight to a hook. Not if you're planning on catching something.

@@ScaleUpadventures alot of people do, ive done it b4 but yeah normally i use fc leader

Yeah I totally agree with you. I think they are worried that people will deliberately spread them into new waterways. However, with the floods we recently had, they have pretty much spread everywhere already

You might be right. However, knots are called by different names in different countries. If you google blood knot you will find examples of both knots

@@ScaleUpadventures Any knot book is a far better reference than google. All of them reference The Ashley Book of Knots (1944). There's tons of information on knots if you're interested.

Thank you I agree. I get most if my knots from a book called "Geoff Wilson's Complete Book of Fishing Knots & Rigs"

@@ScaleUpadventures Cool. I use one by Geoffrey Budworth.

It's also not a pistachio

I've only recently started using it but had yet to fail me

@@ScaleUpadventures that's awesome you must be awake late I'm in Western North Carolina USA Eastern Time zone. Couple of things I love about Australia: Cutting edge engineering Ozzy man Your conservative politicians that aren't corrupt Rita panahi at sky News

@1o1carolina53 not late here only 7pm at night. Trust me, we also have corrupt politicians

@@ScaleUpadventures oh yeah brother the only people that are decent and normal are the general population Hey we we love you folks we really do stay strong mentally and physically love your content and I am subscribed

Thank you

Awesome mate. I'm glad to hear you guys can fish for them again. They are a great little fish to catch. There is something about watching a float go under that's very addictive. Hope you get into a few.

Not to many stone fish on the sandflats .

Yeah sure is

Haven't tried hunting them at night with a touch and spear but will love to give it a go

Sorry mate, this spot was shown to me by someone else so wouldn't be right to give it away. But honestly any pond or creek around the Brisbane area is full of these fish. A lot of the time, you can just see them swimming around.

Works a treat

Thanks mate. I prefer to brain spike most of my fish. Trying to do that with slippery garfish is not easy and tend to slip out of your hands and down through the rocks. I find if you put them in ice they die really fast.

Worst feeling loosing a fuck because of a knot. It's happened to everyone. Just have to find the knot that best works for you and learn to tie it well

Ahhhh okl. Where about are you from. Not to sure we are allowed to do that here in Queensland

Cheers mate sure was
