A Perth Flats Fishing Odyssey (I Caught the Flats Trifecta!)- Swan River Fishing ( Bream & More!)

In another Land Based Perth fishing adventure, I head out onto the flats. I love my bream fishing, so of course I was only using 4lb leader, but some of the fish I caught almost made me regret it!
I have been thinking making a series with episodes of different environments (flats, marinas, bridges, snags), let me know in the comments what you think.
Rod: Millerods TwitchFreak
Reel: Daiwa Revelry 2000s
Note: You don't need to buy gear this expensive to catch good fish!
PE0.4 braid, 4lb leader
Lure: Daiwa Sazanami
Also, let me know down below if you want to see some dedicated tailor fishing videos (or if you're more into the bream).

    @LightTackleAnglerWA Rudder was wearing too fast & screws needed replacing. Waiting on the parts. In the meantime, trying out flats fishing. Something I haven't really done before - went straight from beach/jetty to kayak 😅

    hey man, noticed you talked about chasing pelagics from ammo jetty before, what time of year/tides/moon/time of day are you chasing (of course warmer water so not at the moment) - and are you spinning/sliding/ballooning/ or freelining livies? been after info as trying to crack a mack or longie north metro for a while but very hard to find info, cheers (also setup/rig) would be amazing 🤙

    hey man. To be honest i'm not sure I did aha. rewatched most of my videos because I was stumped as to when I mentioned it and I can't find it hah. that being said, if I was to go for a lb pelagic I'd follow the advice in the 2nd half of this vid /facebook.com/perthfishingtv/videos/north-mole-bonito-in-the-80s/242159647222710/ he's talking about bonito but regardless that's what i'd do. Late summer to Autumn is always the best for that kind of stuff. spinning for land based pelagics in perth metro would be seriously backbreaking stuff in my opinion.

    Unreal vid - I used to dig bloodworms on those flats for bream, never even considered hitting them up for a flats fish! What was the wind doing on that first day when you said the baitfish were pushing up, a light SW?

    @LightTackleAnglerWA

    9 ай бұрын

    thanks mate! yeah it can be productive at certain times. It would have been mostly a southerly from memory (was a strange wind direction for the impending heatwave at the time) , but anything from SSE to a Westerly would put bait in that direction. Yeah well known spot for the worms, probably why there are so many whiting around I suppose

    @@LightTackleAnglerWA would love to see a video in the future on your general casting technique, and your skip casting into structure...after discovering your vids in the last couple of weeks, I've been thinking I need to incorporate what you're doing more, it seems so effortless yet accurate

    thanks mate, will reference it in a future video! there are plenty of vids on yt that explain it I think. I used to practice for hours on end in a swimming pool haha- both skip casting (backhand and forehand) and trying to hit individual tiles on the other side of the pool. Obviously not necessary aha just helped for sure. Practice makes perfect!
