    It's hard to get the algo interested in fresh water films but I love it! Feels almost like hunting when you're stalking fish from the bank like that.

Absolutely slay. Smallest bit of timber structure near the surface is golden. Love it Briggsy. Big bass out there too and the yabba is pumping right now. Fish on 🐟
