We have pretty big Triploid rainbows here on the West Coast of the US, but you Kiwi's have by far the monsters! Thoroughly enjoyed you video Mate!!! Thank You!!!
Hi Tim, tazzies and tobys work fine,. If there is current they are best fished on the drift like a soft bait - on the swing. If there is no or little current, let them sink and retrieve them slowly for best results. When you do let them sink, pay attention as the fish will often grab them on the way down like a fluttering jig. Cheers Malcolm
Hi I'm using 10lb braid. Having tried all sorts, in my opinion the best by far is Daiwa Evo www.completeangler.co.nz/daiwa-evo-tournament-braid-10lb-150m-5135
So how exactly do you use a "sounder"? I'm not even sure what you are talking about as I think it's getting a little lost in translation between there and here in the US.
A sounder is a fish finder. It uses radio frequency which bounces off the fish, this information is then translated to the phone screen showing black images of fish travelling past the “sounder” this is how you know where the fish are
Hi Martin, Our favourite rods in the 8ft range are the Lox Ambassadors. www.completeangler.co.nz/lox-ambassador-80mt-80-2-piece-3-7kg-spin-rod-299 www.completeangler.co.nz/lox-ambassador-810mt-810-4-piece-3-7kg-spin-rod-303 We also have a video on this channel called 'Lox Rods Review - Complete Angler NZ' Giving a deeper understanding on why these rods are so effective for the canals Tight Lines
Hi Craig, the net that the staff uses is the McLean Saltwater Measure & Weight XXL. This it big enough and long enough to land the huge trout we are catching down there. It's got a strap so that you can wear it on your back. This is the way to go. www.completeangler.co.nz/mclean-saltwater-measure-weight-xxl-rubber-landing-net-3925
Have you ever tossed spoons at those monsters? Maybe try drifting a Dick Nite brand micro spoon? Dick Nites are the ticket for Salmon/Steehead in the Pacific Northwest rivers/streams.
@@firepvp4968 I did a lot of research and found if your gear is decent it doesnt matter. Been reeling closed my entire life. Besides they're designed to close when you reel. As for cross line knots. Ive had 0 of those in my entire life. To each their own i suppose.
GREAT TO SEE BIG FISH GOING BACK.

Hey malcom great advice have you tried float fishing the eggs so as you can detect bites or is this not practical.
Hi, I'm heading there in the next few days. I have Tazzie devils and Toby lures. Would they work with this technique?

huntzz21 look up something called a ‘deeper. It’s an orange and black ball

Excellent explanation, but it is a shame that the music is higher than his voice, making it very difficult to follow carefully
Awesome

Seen lots of fish get caught on spoons last weekend. Worked a treat on letting them sink to.bottom and slow retrieve
Never reel into your bail it can mess the reel
Up
What?
I assume you mean closing the Bail by reeling?
@@TheIridescentFisherMan yep
