ALWAYS do this at Point Walter! | Swan River Flathead
Ep 13 - Swan River Snapshots - Flathead Season is upon us once again, and I FINALLY get a chance for a quick cast, after meeting Uncle Matt at Point Walter Jetty. I have a superstition at Point Walter - ALWAYS have a cast off the jetty, no matter what I’m there for. Will it hold true? Check it out!
ABOUT THE SERIES:
In Swan River Snapshots, I move around the mighty Swan River, fishing brief sessions. Not every angler has hours to spend, so my hope for this series is to chuck in a line when I can, narrow my focus and answer some questions that our magnificent river has left me with.

    • @dfjmadventures
      @dfjmadventures 26 дней назад

      Thanks for watching mate! I tend to err on the side of caution/safety - I usually look for low winds (under 10 knots) and swell so I can launch from the beach easier. Since I usually chase squid and smaller fish inshore, I try to get out on clearer days with good water clarity, but depends what you're after. It comes down to what you're comfortable with - I could go out on windier days but isn't really worth getting washed around 🤣. Cheers again

    i live in Melbourne VIC and i have noticed in lakes and areas where fishing is prohibited there is an abundance of carp especially in albert park lake where only certain areas of the lake prohibit fishing even though the biggest carp around a meter long usually live there do you think i should contact someone in the Victorian fishing authority about this or just leave it because after all it's just lakes that are usually not connect to any river source so what would you do?

It's accessible, great for kids and produces more often than not (not exactly monsters, but fun for the kids).

    • @dfjmadventures
      @dfjmadventures Месяц назад

      Hey mate, thanks for watching. I try to fish close to sunrise or sunset depending on what type of fishing I'm doing. It's all about finding the schools if I'm on the yak, as they shift around - I look for circling birds and the like. If I'm landbased or stuck for time, I head to places like Canning Bridge where I know schools frequent. As for the time of year, I've had my best results in the river around summers/autumns, but I've caught them at all times of the year in varying sizes or quantities - they can be a bit on the small side though! I do tend to avoid the colder months - I focus more on squid and bream. Double clutch is my go-to lure - rarely misses when the fish are around. Hope this helps - good luck!

    Whilst carp aren't good. Humans are damaging the waterways 100x more. Carp probably do 1% of the damage, but it's an easy scapegoat.

      Hey mate, thanks for watching! The hobie's been great since I got it. Given it's a smaller version, it's perfect for my preferred methods of fishing (river and shallow ocean). Handles well, it's light and easy to load and pretty zippy. I will be upgrading the rudder at some point though - not sold on the current one. In short, I'm happy with it cause it fits my needs, and I was able to find a good deal for it so I didn't break the bank. Hope this helps!
