Dude it astounds me that you can tell what the fish is before you have seen it and even the size, you are switched on and I hope your channel grows, you deserve it little friend
Josh, I love your channel. You are already a far more perceptive angler than I ever was. You may already know this, but when I use servo prawns, I always peel them to stop fish from tearing the head/tails off. My grandma taught me that...tight lines, mate.
Josh mate been a huge fan since u had 200 subs its amazing to see how much better u have got as a youtuber and I can't wait to see how much more ur channel will grow keep it up u legend can't wait till next week
Another awesome production Josh….I would love to see you visit that location once the water clears to see what structure was in front of you. Interesting to see the water traffic didn’t deter the fish too much. I hope you and yours have a happy and safe Christmas break and I look forward to seeing your next video.
That bream hitting a 90mm prawn was a suprise! Awesome sesh, and yet again why lure fishing is so rewarding but also so successful, awesome video josh!
Just a tip for circle hooks is that the fish don’t hook themselves but when you get a bite you just reel and that hooks them and if you set the hook you can pop the hook right out of there mouths
Terrific video and catches Josh!! That big flattie was a beauty. I think the lures performed so well due to your expertise in using them plus how realistic they looked! It helped that you were in constant contact with the rod when using the lure and could feel the touches and time the strike too. The bait got plenty of interest, but reduced hookups due to not holding on to the rod IMO and setting the hook. Impossible to compare both at the same time really unless you were fishing with someone else with equal skills at the same location etc. It still made for a great video and your enthusiasm, skills and editing are all top shelf! All the best for Christmas mate, stay safe and well!
been trying to hook a flatty for a week now with all kinds of plastics in lots of different spots but I just cant seem to hook any, might try a prawn types all mine of been various wrigglers
Hey Josh, love how keen you are to get out fishing. Im tipping that with your experience, you already knew what the outcome of the challenge would be. Love your work
new angler here, quick question. 19:50 he unhooks the flathead by just shaking it. just wondering if this would or wouldn't rip the fishes throat apart?
G’day Josh, another great video mate 👍🏼. I love these challenges. I usually always soak a bait and toss out a lure as well, love it. Keep up the great work mate.
Hey Josh, Ive been starting to watch your videos and I’m loving it! However I was just wondering if you could make a video on how to start lure fishing in saltwater nsw and which lures to start with, I’ve been bait fishing for around 6-7 years now but only tried a tad bit and then gave up. Cheers and keep up the good work
Nice flattie...Bit unfair on the bait though...using a Mustad long bait holder and threading the prawn along it to make it more realistic and holding the rod so you can set the hook...would have caught more...just as your always in touch with a lure...my best fish a 80cm flattie was caught on bait using the above method...again a great video to watch...cheers.
Nice vid Josh good job. The only time I use mono is surface lure fishing. Fluro carbon line sinks so it pulls down on the front of the surface lure, this doesnt happen with mono.
Great video. Good circle hooks. Invest in a rod holder. With dirty water bait has a big advantage. With the lures you need to be moving them, that sauce is good. Rather than loosening your drag. Consider a baitrunner for bait fishing
Hey josh a tip when your using prawns. You can take the tail off the prawn and peel the tail and hook it from the tail end through to the other end. FYI: you don’t have to do this. Just a tip
I’ve been fishing for a week straight fishing for flat head waking up at 4:00am going on my kayak with my mate and brother targeting flat head and I’m only catching baby ones I miss catching big ones any tips
Hey Josh with the prawn baits one tip pinch the head of the prawn and pull it so the head and poo line come out it it’s more better for the hooking of the fish
Recently subbed to you channel love watching the places you visit, and glad to see jetskier, waterskiers and clowns in speed boats are solely an issue down here in Vic. Handled yourself well!
Watching your videos, I’ve learnt so much about lure fishing and flicking techniques! Thank you so much I can’t wait to use the things you’ve shown in ur videos to produce some good fish 😆😆
Great video prawn are my favorite bait to use you can try to rip off the head of the prawn and catch a fish This method I been using of 7 years.great vid josh
Josh I love your channel, just a tip with the bait prawns, try peeling them. It gets your hand stinky and it takes a bit but the reward is soooo much better.
Gotta love the Aussie representation, hello from a northern neighbour, can't wait until I can get back on the water coz the recent rain has made everything super dirty. Merry Christmas and a happy New year to you mate
I work for millerods. Packing and shipping there rods to people who order online and to tackle stores all over Australia👍🏼 and before you ask. No I didn’t get my millerods that I own for free. Paid full price
Fluorocarbon is clear while mono has a tint to it. So when using lures you obviously don’t want the fish to see the line and be put off by it. So we use flurocarbon. It’s also more abrasion resistant than mono
Hey Josh 👋 next time try using the same jig head for both baits. Can’t help but think things would have been closer if you had the same hook working for you. One things for sure, your spot holds fish - can’t go wrong either way.
mate, that lizard was enormous! just a hint for bait fishing. be more active. you can almost work those prawns like lures...soaking it doesnt cover much area. :) keep at it, love your work!
The thing with lures is it completely depends on the target species. This time there were flatties and they love to ambush. I’m surprised you caught so many on this particular plastic as I’ve used it with no luck. It smells of cheap plastic. In my opinion and personal experience plastics like Keitech and rapala crush city are better because they’re pre-scented and ACTUALLY smell for days. I add S-factor too but I’ve noticed they’re unreal.
Dude it astounds me that you can tell what the fish is before you have seen it and even the size, you are switched on and I hope your channel grows, you deserve it little friend
Hahah I often get the fish analogies wrong. But over time you can start to pick up patterns and the different ways the fish fight👍🏼
@@joshdfishing the more u do it the more u just know
@@DickOswald no shit
@@ThePudding1232some people are to dumb to figure out patterns and fight behaviour so its not that "no shit" that much asswipe
@@DickOswald no it's a no shit thing. if you fish you'll realize and recognize patterns

Cheers mark like always❤️ glad you enjoyed mate. I hope you have a great chrissy as well!
i love to see young anglers like u enjoy fishing so much its astounding how many kids fish nowadays
He can drive he is not a kid
That bream hitting a 90mm prawn was a suprise! Awesome sesh, and yet again why lure fishing is so rewarding but also so successful, awesome video josh!
Yeah that breambo blew me away. Keen to view your big flathead film🤙🏼
Bream can be crazy aggressive. I've landed bream with baits the same length as them.
You are a quality fisherman and have inspired me to go fishing more, your channel will grow heaps little friend
Just a tip for circle hooks is that the fish don’t hook themselves but when you get a bite you just reel and that hooks them and if you set the hook you can pop the hook right out of there mouths
Everyone needs to chill with the age questions, just appreciate his talent! Keen to try these lures out in port Mac very soon! 👏🏼

How’s the paragraph on the bloke!!!
Yeah it’s pretty hard to give a 100% accurate comparison because like you said I’m fishing solo.
@@joshdfishing 😉
Your love and appreciation of nature is admiral for such a young fella.
Hey Josh! I was just wondering what scent you used?
This video popped off I go away for a 2 weeks come back to 2 vides and once gone crazy good work guys your making yiur way uup
Yeah it’s pretty crazy hey👀

How epic Josh! Worth the walk out into the water that’s for sure
Yeah well I didn’t plan on getting soaked on that day. But you gotta do what ya gotta do for a good fish
Great to see another bait vs lures mate!!
It was highly requested so I made it happen🤙🏼
G’day Josh, another great video mate 👍🏼. I love these challenges. I usually always soak a bait and toss out a lure as well, love it.
Keep up the great work mate.
Cheers Wayne🙌
Your channel is going to blow up even more soon I’m sure! Keep it up, great video

hi josh for prawns i use storm prawns the best 3 d prawn

Nice flattie...Bit unfair on the bait though...using a Mustad long bait holder and threading the prawn along it to make it more realistic and holding the rod so you can set the hook...would have caught more...just as your always in touch with a lure...my best fish a 80cm flattie was caught on bait using the above method...again a great video to watch...cheers.
Thank you Josh. New to your channel. New to fishing. A great challenge. Ive learned a lot.
👍🏼
Insane hooks on the bait. I usually go size 5-8 when using prawns. Or most baits. Smaller hooks usually work better I’ve found
Josh didn’t specify what he was using them for so he thought he was using live mullet so he gave him the demon circles
Wait is that in Ulladulla ? Love your vids mate and was wondering where this wonderful spot is.
Nice vid Josh good job. The only time I use mono is surface lure fishing. Fluro carbon line sinks so it pulls down on the front of the surface lure, this doesnt happen with mono.
Thanks mate. Yeah using mono is common with surface lures. But fluro for an all round
Cheers to great videos of a decent Aussie fisherman
Yo I just came across this as my first video to your channel and your videos are pro quality! Keep it up and your channel will grow!
i can tell with the level of editing and production that this channel is bound to blow up, keep going lil man
Cheers dude❤️
Just got the Revelery in 3000 last week. Can’t wait to use it this weekend
Cheers for the vid each week love it man
Wherr are you fishing to get flathear like that? Im local to the Hastings and Maclea river and the biggest flathead ive ever gotten are barely 40cm
hi mate your videos' are very entertaining more please
Josh mate I’ve got clone prawns from bcf couple days ago and I got the big green tiger ones used them today caught me my pb flatty 86 cm
The guy at the servo was chock full of personality
Can't believe your servo guy is so polite!
Great video kiddo showing lots of experience. What water way are you fishing.
Hey mate just discovered u today👌 I’ve been through many a bag of tweed prawns! Brings back memories
josh d is a good channel and deserves more veiws

can't go wrong with the Mustad circles bro.
legendary hooks
Hey man love the video, i was just wondering what that blue shimano rod is called that you were using
Thanks mate. It’s called the t-curve premium
Watching your videos, I’ve learnt so much about lure fishing and flicking techniques! Thank you so much I can’t wait to use the things you’ve shown in ur videos to produce some good fish 😆😆
That first cast is why I prefer lures! 😅 I loose too much bait!

🙌
Was wondering when a new vid would be out.. great content as always man.
👍🏼
nice video bro thanks for sharing I love how you do your B rolls.simple but elegant!

I don't know what it is but it's huge then the weather gets sunny all of a sudden and bang big fish.🤣
hey were would you recommend I fish for flattie in tassie
Have you 3ver used a telescopic rods? If yes any tips?
I always leave a bit of tension when using the circle hooks otherwise I find the fish don’t hook up properly
Great video prawn are my favorite bait to use you can try to rip off the head of the prawn and catch a fish This method I been using of 7 years.great vid josh
Josh, what leader knot do you use I am new to lure fishing😅😅
Another great season Josh 👌
Wow man I never thought of that way hooking shrimp/prawns, that’s definitely gonna save me some bait next trip.👍
Well done. Great lure. Nice flathead.
Excellent video.
Thanks again mate🙏🏼
Great video Josh. Could you please show more on what technics you used for the lure fishing? Also what Rods are you using?
Cheers
Josh I love your channel, just a tip with the bait prawns, try peeling them. It gets your hand stinky and it takes a bit but the reward is soooo much better.
Thats an awesome complete angler, went there a few weeks ago, great service and so many lures!
Yeah they are very kind people. With a big range of stuff for a small shop
yes another bait vs lure challenge. keep up the great work
It’s been highly requested🤣😅
Great video. Where abouts are you fishing ?
South coast of nsw
Hey Josh, next bait vs lure challenge, can you please do small Pilchards? Thanks for the great content!
Sure will👍🏼
i recon potty mullet, or pilchards vs zman slim swims so you can target bigger species.
As soon as I seen the channel and I knew that it was the best also hello fellow Aussie
Gotta love the Aussie representation, hello from a northern neighbour, can't wait until I can get back on the water coz the recent rain has made everything super dirty. Merry Christmas and a happy New year to you mate
Another banger josh, keep up the great work bro

Good stuff mate! Ripper flatty 👌
What tackle store was that
Compleat angler Ulladulla
@@joshdfishing thanks keep up the good work
Appreciated the comparison session bro. Must've taken hours/days to edit. That ProLure is gonna be my next one to try. Cheers 😀
What shop did you get that lure from and also what cent do you have on it
Compleat angler Ulladulla👍🏼 and I got my scent from there as well. I use a scent combination of lots of scents in one
Hey josh if your ok telling me what’s your new job
I work for millerods. Packing and shipping there rods to people who order online and to tackle stores all over Australia👍🏼 and before you ask. No I didn’t get my millerods that I own for free. Paid full price
Probably feels good to be able to go fishing all the time
I’m lucky to be able to fish do often with the work I do🙌🏼
Have Josh love the vid mate! If u were to do a pt.3 can u fish with bait for a certain amount of time and then the lures?
Great vid Josh, I won’t be packing my lures away just yet

what would u recommend as the best lure for flathead ?
3inch zman minnowz. Any colour will do the job👍🏼
i watch so much of you content and i think this is the first time hearing you swear but amazing content keep it up 👍
Thanks mate. I swore but cut it out
@@joshdfishing Allgoods i dont mind
You’re awesome kid. I like the way you talk beautiful words best videos explain every thing in details. I love you’re vids ❤
I recon u should use pilchards and use like a mino type lure
Yes that’s will more than likely be in lure vs bait pt3👍🏼
