MANGROVE JACK FISHING. MY FAVOURITE SOFT PLASTIC!!

Спорт

Mangrove Jack fishing on the Mid North Coast N.S.W.
This vid is a late arvo and the next morning fishing for the elusive Mangrove Jack. Lots of bycatch along the way, flathead, trevally and even a little jew.
I didn't hook into any monster jacks, only a couple of smaller pups, but that's jack fishing, some days you find them but most days you don't lol.
My favourite jack soft plastic, Zman 4" paddle tail, caught the best jack of the session. Thanks for watching.

    Thanks for the sub👍 Jack's can be a frustrating species to target but good fun when it all comes together. Just starting to watch some of your vids.

    Haha I'm there almost everytime i go out for a fish, but I only get out once a week for afew hours lately. With all the rain id say it seems to have slowed, but I very rarely go home without atleast 1 catch :) My father pulled a 56cm Jack from a snag there just before all the rain. Im yet to get another haha

    Thanks Warren, I mainly use my Daiwa Generation Black Wicked Weasel 2-6kg rod, and reel I use the Shimano Ultegra 4000xg. Definitely didn't need this set up for these small jacks lol, but when a big red hit and runs for the snags you need it.

    @@warrensimpson9541 The only thing I don't like about the gen black is the micro guides, early morning or late Arvo when low light it can be hard to feed your braid through the guides as they are so small, but your eyes might not be as old as mine🤓
