Huge shad/bluefish caught on small rod - Shad fishing Durban 2024
Спорт
Jacques and I (Jason) did another Virginia pier trip and while I had popped out to get a new rod, Jacques had caught this huge shad ("Bluefish" in the USA and "Tailor" in Australia) on a tiny 5ft6 rod. What an action-packed fight! Subscribe for more!

Unlucky, sometimes they don’t like taking steel wire but if you hook a big one you’re in trouble. Tight lines!
Where is this place/pier
That big one is known as a Bluefish in the US, and Tailor in Australia.

With all the sewerage being pumped into the sea around Durban??? are these fish "safe" to eat??
@JTActionFishing
5 ай бұрын
We don't eat the fish, however, for the safety of those who do, I constantly check beachwater.durban.gov.za/ website which indicates whether it's poor/acceptable/ideal. At Glenashley Beach the water quality report shows that it's perfectly safe (ideal).
Frozen bait,knife towards you please don’t Otherwise that’s a well fought blue Shad and well done

Don’t eat it. Have it mounted and display it so you can gaze at it for years.
