Gday Caleb. It draws bugger. I can power through 60cms of water no problem and fish in half a metre. The bigger sizes would be similar but not 100% sure.

Thanks mate.

Thanks mate. Great little sports fish.

Thanks mate. Glad you got something out of it.

Thanks mate.

Thanks mate. Awesome trip and worth all the effort.

@@80ZX how big is the boat and will in be ok stored in yard? I have a locked yard you can use if it isn’t too big.

@wardysfishing9403 it is a Quintrex 480 coast runner on single axle trailer. That would be amazing Mate. We would certainly be interested in chatting further and most certainly happy to pay storage. What is the best way to make contact?

No problem. Email me at [email protected]

@@wardysfishing9403 cheers Mate.

I'd love to claim it as good angling skills mate but I got very very lucky. Thanks for the kind word mate. Wardy

G'day mate. I use a rod in the 12-20lb weight or line class range. In the video I use a Daiwa rod. The reel is a Daiwa Certate but Penn, or Shimano or just a decent reel in the 4000 size is ideal. I use 20lb line and a 40lb leader. That is light for Tusk FIsh but easy to use and I prefer the light stuff. I just seem to catch more fish even though I loss the odd one. Hope that helps mate. Wardy

@@wardysfishing9403 thank you for the prompt reply and that helps heaps as I am looking at a Diawa Td Black Supacaster 5/10 kg and either a TD Black 3000 or 4000 leaning towards the 4000 but will see how the balance is , loving your videos - Cheers

@@warrensimpson9541 Perfect mate. You will pull them out with that gear for sure. Great combo. Wardy

If you are confident with soft plastics, just some small 4" grubs of prawns such as Gulp work well on the small but numerous drain barra. For the better fish in the snags, a barra lure such as the RMG Scorpion or Reidy's B52 are great. Just shallow diving lures in that style. Having a barra lure and a soft plastic will cover all bases. Good luck mate. Wardy

@wardysfishing9403 thanks Mate, appreciate the response. Looking forward to heading up there and exploring some new country. Very informative and entertaining videos Mate.

@@80ZX Thanks mate. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask. Happy to help.

@wardysfishing9403 might touch base mid August and get a road update if that's OK Mate.

@@80ZX With the road up here, the graders and road crews are constantly working on it. There is only 200klms of dirt left and it is nowhere near as bad as it used to be. The sections that are about to be redone will be bad and the sections just done will be great but overall, it is never too bad anymore. Wardy

I agree. We were also very exposed to the weather however, we had to get TO permission and we did, but that was where we were told we could camp.

They work very well. Jackel make suspending lures and real good ones but they dive too deep for the shallow water up here on the edges.

Not a prototype. These are available but I know they can be hard to find as most anglers like a floating lure.

Why thank you so much sir. Wardy

Glad you got something out of it mate.

Thanks heaps mate.

So glad you got something out of it mate. Cheers

The term Saltwater Croc is a little misleading. To say the least. They are everywhere mate and these billabongs are a favourite little hangout.

That’s what I thought. You appear very relaxed at the water’s edge, I guess living up there you get to know the signs, subtle and obvious, that would put you on more alert?!

@@martyataube Plus a little complacency.

G'day mate. You won't catch beachworms there. The mangroves are all long gone so no blood worms so I guess the only worms in the area may be pink wrigglers. Being a Qlder, not my area of expertise but I do know the area you are talking about.

Thanks

We just added a 00 sized sinker. Tiny but it was enough to pull the nose down. We are going to test the big 9" and see if that is better. Or worse. But needed the small sinker on the small Nessie.

@@wardysfishing9403 Thanks have these in order and came across your video last night so was curious have 5,7,9, ordered

Also seen people adding nail weights to them

@@Backwoods.country I have 7 and 9 on order as well. I will do a video and let you know how I find them up here.

@@Backwoods.country How is that done? pushing a nail through the plastic?

Best of luck mate. Let me know if you have any questions. I;m sure you;ll get your first of each.

So glad you enjoyed it. Welcome to Wardys (and Sams) Fishing.

Thanks Bozx. That's what it is all about. Best of luck in Sept mate.

G'day Mumztaxi. I put tape over the water intakes on the bottom of the motor and used glad wrap to wrap the cowling and down to the shaft. I am not too worries about the leg of the engine so that's all I do. Good luck with your trip in June. Its been a big wet and we are still getting smashed with rain so hoping for a good barra bite during the dry. Wardy

Thanks Craig.

You're right mate. Cheers.

Isn't it boring if I am just fishing without any music? I have a video already edited that will load today but I will do one without music later this week and see how it goes.

@@wardysfishing9403 i prefer to hear you talking about what may be on the line and hearing the excitement 😀🐟🐠🎣

@@myparadiseonbantayanisland9030 Thanks for letting me know. I will do more of that and see how it goes. Wardy

Thanks mate. Not here in Qld. The Qld Groper, barramundi cod and potato cod are but not the estuary cod. They are in very healthy numbers. They taste OK but the flesh is a little soft so we release them anyway.

Cheers Craig.

Thanks mate. Glad you’re enjoying the videos. Feel free to ask any questions and I’ll try to help out where I can. Wardy.

Thanks mate.

How good are fingermark? Hopefully you’ll smack a few when you get back up here. Wardy.

Why?

No problem 👍

Thanks mate.

Thanks Craig

@@wardysfishing9403 Sing out when you arrive and will have to catch up.
