It’s been thirty years since I’ve seen those trees on the headland in the flesh, it always makes me homesick for the fishing down there. Great session and video Steve as always. 👍🏻
Another brilliant video mate, winter beach fishing is super tough and your always informative vids, as always, show innovative and productive methods to turn what most may find a dry result into a moisty. Its actually been years since Ive been able to fish an Aussie beach but prior to that I'd spent decades flinging whole ganged pillies a mile on 10kg through ridiculously tiring 13ft telegraph poles resulting in an experience with all the sensitivity of wearing 3 condoms regardless of the glorious setting. I walked past a stand a couple of weeks ago with some 9-10ft, 4-6kg, 2pc rods I would have previously considered impractical but the modern design, silky touch and featherlight weight enticed me to stop and muse. Even though it was my birthday and I was headed to Sussex Inlet the next week I declined to 'bite' however, a decision in hindsight I regret, particularly in light of this incredibly inspiring vid. Once again my friend you have me back at the cashier, chucking bucks with impunity and without a skerrick of regret. Hope to catch you on the sand one day for some comraderie or at least to point out to my wife the dude responsible.
show's how a short local session at your local can provide a great enjoyable time plus fresh dinner protein, well done. have bought two vanfords for this sort of fishing a little south of you near bermi. beautiful nature we can enjoy
Ha Steve that's my local beach to hopefully as my health improves I should be walking it before Christmas that's my ame so the light gear you use will be on santers list thanks for for the vid helps to keep me motivated.👍👍👍
Great video, brought back fond memories of my best ever surf fish!! Also in the dying moments of light, and also on a Catana (slightly heavier 9 foot one w 20lb fluoro leader and a 1/0). Very similar battle but mine took me about 200m along the beach. Leader popped at a wind knot as I dragged it out of the suds. That sambo was 78cm on the bragmat (maybe 5kg?). A memory I’ll always treasure. Was a very wet time reviving it, but worth it to watch it swim majestically away.
Amazing to see mate I absolutely love how you and your wife a absolutely love sharing this amazing sport and past time of all the content about fishing available I have learned and taken away the most from your Chanel thanks for the amazing effort mate I wish you and your family tight lines forever
Brilliant episode Steve & Jo, some helpful tips & just love this type of fishing & a nice feed to take home. We have some similar beaches on the Yorke Peninsula where I live so you might’ve motivated me to go out & throw a line again 🎣
If I was in Oz I would buy you a coffee .. your vids Def worth it. But paying in Rand's it's not so easy. But you have a place to stay in cape town for a few nights if you need it..
I used to fill the kids socks with tuna oil & chopped up mulies, and get them to stand in the shore break, to attract the fish. Now the lil bugga’s are grown up they refuse to play the game any more. Time to start training the grandkids I think! 😜😂😂👍
I do spell it out in the video, but you might have missed it: Shimano Catana Light Surf/Coastline Light rod, 2500 or 3000 Vanford reel, 8 to 10 pound Kairiki braid and 10 to 12 pound fluorocarbon leaders (Ocea FC).
@@1MauricioGarcia Hi! It’s on the far south coast of the state of NSW, about four to five hours drive south of Sydney and two to three hours drive north of the border with the state of Victoria.
@@StarloGetsReelHi Steve, I’m familiar with the area, however I don’t recognise that specific location with those beautiful trees. Would you be able to share the name of the beach? Thanks kindly.
Hi Starlo, been watching yours and Roger's surf fishing videos and have been enjoying surf fishing, but after I caught a GT my luck ran out and all I've been catching is sharks non stop. While it's fun but I would like to start catching nice eating fishes again. Do you have any tips for how I can stop catching sharks? No one has done any videos on it. I live in QLD. Thank you.
I run 8 or 10 pound Kairiki braid as my main line and about a rod length of leader all up, usually 12 or 16 pound Ocea Fluourocarbon. The sinker runs to a swivel about 40cm back from the hook or hooks. I like to run a pair of 1/0 hooks when fishing with half a pilchard.
@@tedjames2534 no. He speaks as if he's a reasonable teacher/instructor with something valuable to offer... and a fair few people seem to agree, judging by the comments and feedback here. But each to their own, and no one is forcing you to watch or listen if it's not your cup of tea. There's plenty of other content on RUclips, including some from great fishos. Tight Lines.
@@StarloGetsReel starting with tight lines, you’ve directly stolen that from another fisherman based in Queensland. People don’t agree. Doesn’t sound like a reasonable good teacher. A bunch of soft muppets pumping you up doesn’t mean “people” agree.
The closest thing of going to beach fishing is to watch Starlo's video. Thanks Starlo!!!!
Enjoy!
Great way to spend a winters arvo, one of my favourite ways to get some exercise too.
Couldn't agree more!
you are the best Starlo I haven't gone fishing since the winter started but I am lure fisho though never using baits
You should!
It’s been thirty years since I’ve seen those trees on the headland in the flesh, it always makes me homesick for the fishing down there. Great session and video Steve as always. 👍🏻

😅good video Starlo. Keep up the good videos.
Thanks, will do!

Nice fish.

Indeed! It looked warmer in the brochure, though. ;)

Glad it was helpful!

No worries. Get well soon!
My first fish as a kid was a whiting from the beach in NQ. 12lb mono no braid in those days.🤠🎣
Good stuff.

Top vid, winter fishing can be tough at times but you guys did great, cheers
Thanks 👍

Great to hear!
Really useful information. Fishing can be a year round activity and techniques/tricks vary by season. Good stuff!
Absolutely!
Great vid starlo
Cheers.
Great work again mate. Keep them coming, you inspired me to soak some bait. I love your style.
All the best from Moe town.
😂
Thanks 👍
epic mate
Thanks!
Australian Salmon are such an underrated fish to eat. I love em!
I totally agree!
Hey Starlo, nice work mate! Is that Vanford a 2500 size?
Thanks! I use both a 2500 and a 3000 Vanford on that rod. Either is fine.
Good little session. What's the hook rig? stinger rig?
Just a pair of hooks with top one snelled to the leader.
@@StarloGetsReel thanks, enjoyed your video.
Hi youve given me some thought here. Next time i will launch the lead and use the spinning rod to try the short approach at the same time. Thank you
If I was in Oz I would buy you a coffee .. your vids Def worth it. But paying in Rand's it's not so easy. But you have a place to stay in cape town for a few nights if you need it..
All good! And thank you so much for that!
love the arvo sessions down the beach. Looks like Dalmeny?
Close! Bit further north at Tuross Head.
Australian salmon and thai fish cakes.
Yep.
Great video Starlo as always,will certainly be investing in a setup like that an would that be ok for casting lures as well?
Absolutely!
I used to fill the kids socks with tuna oil & chopped up mulies, and get them to stand in the shore break, to attract the fish.
Now the lil bugga’s are grown up they refuse to play the game any more.
Time to start training the grandkids I think! 😜😂😂👍
That’s gold! 🤣
@@StarloGetsReel You & Bushy fished with those two kids yourself once in a previous life. 😉
Hey Steve, how about your top recepie for cooking aussie sambos.
Thanks mate nice video,can you tell us your setup please.Rod reel & rig 👍

That's a pain. Not a problem we often have down here, so I can't really help. Sorry.
@@StarloGetsReel That's all good, looking forward to holidaying down south again this year and go fishing where you guys are.
Hi mate can you tell me what size hooks on the trace you are using and describe the the trace you are using . Thanks ❤
I run 8 or 10 pound Kairiki braid as my main line and about a rod length of leader all up, usually 12 or 16 pound Ocea Fluourocarbon. The sinker runs to a swivel about 40cm back from the hook or hooks. I like to run a pair of 1/0 hooks when fishing with half a pilchard.
@@StarloGetsReel Thanks for your reply greatly appreciated
G'day mate, just wondering what rod and size did you use on this video ?
It's a Shimano Catana Coastline Light. Great rod! Very affordable, too.
You’ll loose a bit of weight fishing like that too 😂😂
Not working so far! ;)
What is the location?
NSW far south coast.
A lot of rod for so little money😊
So true!
Big Starlo isn't the best fisherman
Nor did he ever claim to be. ;)
