I watched this twice. Why? I got where, when and how. No endless brand plugging. Genuine excitement, how to share your hobby with your child, give them some spotlight time. Fish of a lifetime twice. Allan, seriously thank you for making these videos. A class act you are, well done.
Wow, thank you! I really appreciate your feedback. Countless hours go into making these type of vids and comments like this really do help to keep the motivation levels high !!
Good video thanks.. I'd go smaller hook size though if your using powerbait size 10 is ideal otherwise your bait won't float.. tried size 6 ... they sink.
Wow fantastic catches! Thanks for going over your setups. Great scenery. Haven’t seen your daughter in a video for abit her and yours excitement was wonderful!
Thanks David !! I appreciate the comments. Yeah my daughter was really keen to help me work on this project with the VFA. The excitement is genuine and awesome to share those experiences with her and good mates.
Great video Alan, epic catch, I worked down in Jindabyne for 3 ski seasons, when I was 19 and had the opportunity to go trout fishing in Lake Jindabyne, trolling Tassie devils and bait fishing with scrub worms and dragon fly lava, bought back some great memories from 30 years ago, awesome work champion,
Thank you Anthony !! I always love it when people say that watching took them back to fond fishing memories they had. Lake Jindabyne supposed to be a really lovely spot.
@@fishingmad thanks mate, yeah it's a beautiful spot, as a chef i was doing breakfast and dinner, so i had about 5 hours daily to go fishing with the owner of the establishment, tried fly fishing in the Thredbo River, but didn't have much luck,
Beautiful video, so genuine about fishing with friends and family. I love it, makes me want to go fish every time I see one of you’re videos. I personally haven’t gotten one yet but I’m still trying and can’t wait to get back out there after this episode!! Thanks FishingMad from all of us 🤙
Thanks, heaps of good spots for saltwater fishing near willi. The piers like Gemm pier and pier off Anne street go pretty good. ruclips.net/video/CRhirud6Cqg/видео.html this was filmed there. You also have the warmies down the road from that. We have fishing maps and tutorials in our members area which might be helpful
Awesome video mate. I just caught my PB, 72cm at 10.5kg, was an absolute stonker. On 10lb line and a 2-4kg rod too ahaha, and it snapped my landing net. Was a battle
Never seen trout that big, until I came across a picture of it on your FB page the other day, don't think I would catch one that big in my local river which isn't stocked haha.
I used power bait the pink and caught a giant rainbow trout in Albert park lake definitely some big ones there for anyone looking for somewhere to catch one fish of the carousel
Great video Alan good to see our license fees going back into the fishing community , Have you ever tried Fly fishing I reckon you would get into it. Complex knots & different casting techniques.
Thanks Phillip. Ive always wanted to give fly fishing a go but never have. Im probably scared it will take me away from the billion spin rods, reels and lures which I love so much.
Yep the spoons work great on Bass. I caught several estuary perch with them during the week. The spoon is a strike pro bob n spoon, most tackle store sell them. I got it from Hooked on bait and tackle in hopers crossing.
Yeah it certainly was a girthy one, that's for sure. Id say full of eggs as well. We did catch and release but very likely those fish will all eventually be caught.
Yeah 100% she was released, It was tempting though to keep one of that size and putting it on the wall, but always special watching the big ones swim away
The trout stonker stocking locations, numbers, times and dates have been advertised on every fishing website and social media platform across Melbourne this past week.
Stop whinging on the internet and go fishing maybe? If he gets a kid with no idea or help onto a 4kg trout because he convinces his mum to drive him to a spot he saw on RUclips then that's a win and I bet a new fisho for life to pay license fees that keep funding programs like this stocking program which is awesome. 👌
3 nice finger mark best 3.3kg nearly pull the fishes arse over it's eyes. Used greasy prawn in slim swim-z not bad for land based session 2.2 hrs fished.

Great video Alan can’t get over the size of that beast you got
And the other guy on 4 lb leader wow
Thanks Tony, Yeah the VFA have done an awesome job creating some excitement with these big trout in our metro lakes.
A trout with a beer belly. Amazing entertainment.
Thank you !!

Thank you and your very welcome. If ya get a chance head to Albert Park Lake 70 of those massive trout were stocked there on Tuesday
Thank you !! Always helping out, appreciate it
South Australian Fisheries watch this. This is what a license in place can do!!
Except SA wouldn't use it for fisheries.. it'd just be lost money to their state government
I saw the photo of you on the VFA page was looking forward to seeing this video. I help with the fish releases for the albury wodonga region.
Thanks !! Thats brilliant about helping release them in Wodonga area. Ive helped release them before which is an awesome experience
Hi Alan a great place for fishing I recommend is the Cudgegong River near Mudgee
Thanks for the tip! I will check it out for sure. Im travelling a bit now for the channel so always looking for some spots to mix up the content
Big fish buddy, amazing fishing spot there
Thanks 👍!!
Thanks for the video and info, I'll try The Gully Quarry tomorrow!
Good luck, The Gully Quarry is a beautiful location
Great Video. What happened to the lure advice ? What was the pellets you throw in the lake? Thanks
Love your content mate great work as always
Much appreciated !! Thank you

but good video loved it
Yep agreed, I will head up there at some stage for sure.
Awesome video Alan 👍🏼 What a beast of Trout, Farout.
Thanks 👍 it sure was. should be a few up your way as well
one of your best uploads 👍
Wow, thank you so much !!
Could you please try to make videos of fishing for trout at pakenham lake, emerald park lake, Olinda creek, Toomuc creek and Beaconsfield reservoir
I was gonna go down there with my ultralight, but now that I’ve seen how much drag that fish pulled. I’m also gonna take my medium action 😅
Yeah I did the same took my finesse gear and ended up going back with a slightly heavier outfit
Absolute legend!! Trying to get started on fishing, know any places near williamstown?
Thanks, heaps of good spots for saltwater fishing near willi. The piers like Gemm pier and pier off Anne street go pretty good. ruclips.net/video/CRhirud6Cqg/видео.html this was filmed there.

Wow, thats amazing. Congrats on such a good catch, and 100% they will test the light gear thats for sure
10.5 kg???😂😂😂
Wow this was amazing
Thanks !!
alan even at my local lake there is some monster trout 50cm plus it's so hard because of the water clarity to
Never seen trout that big, until I came across a picture of it on your FB page the other day, don't think I would catch one that big in my local river which isn't stocked haha.
Yeah I've only ever seen stocked ones this big. They don't fight to hard but gee are fun to catch
Hey mate love the vids, the huge one you caught on bait what did you catch it on. Power bait, corn, worms or mudeye.
Got that one on powerbait and the other on a spoon
@@fishingmad thank you
Great video
Where are you fishing?
It says in the video where it was filmed. Thanks
I used power bait the pink and caught a giant rainbow trout in Albert park lake definitely some big ones there for anyone looking for somewhere to catch one fish of the carousel
Yep 100% !! I saw a few caught there past few days to. I have included the stocking locations and numbers in the description of the vid.
Nice work.
Landing net needs a little work😂
Thanks Dennis, yeah the landing net is stuffed after that session so of to the shop to buy another today
Almost as good as being there, that battle to get it in the net!
Yeah was a few very intense moments there that's for sure. Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it.
Great video Alan good to see our license fees going back into the fishing community , Have you ever tried Fly fishing I reckon you would get into it. Complex knots & different casting techniques.
Thanks Phillip. Ive always wanted to give fly fishing a go but never have. Im probably scared it will take me away from the billion spin rods, reels and lures which I love so much.
I BET THAT SPOON WOULD BE FIRST CLASS ON BASS. WHAT SHOP IN MELBOURNE DID YA GET IT FROM. RIPPER FISH. AND ROD ALSO WHAT LENGTH . CHEERS.
Yep the spoons work great on Bass. I caught several estuary perch with them during the week. The spoon is a strike pro bob n spoon, most tackle store sell them. I got it from Hooked on bait and tackle in hopers crossing.
Rod looks good what price and we're to get one cheers.
Did you release them? Love your stuff
1000% both released. Big trout dont always swim away well. The 2nd one took some effort to get it on its way.
cant believe the lines didnt break
Wow ❤ where is this location in Victoria
It says the location and all the details in the vid
He’s at Yaramat lake
What time of year would be a good time to go?
100% winter and spring time, also keep an eye out for VFA stocking days. That will make a big difference.
Can you kayak in lake yarrambat? Or is it not worth it?
Honestly not 100% sure, you can walk all the banks so its so easy to fish land based
Is lilydale lake a good place for fishing giant trout?
Yep it sure is
Is this Karkarook Park Lake?
It says in the video several occasions where we fished.
I break 4lb leader just sinching the knot.
I would have mounted that one it's the biggest monster I've ever seen
Yeah it was super tempting, but also very special to watch it swim away
What’s the name of the lake Alan?
Yarrambat Lake, Cheers
Where is this location?
The video shares all of the details including the location
Where is this lake
Yes yes...nice aussies boys...haha she cook..ha ha...dirty lakes...good boys....strong fishers...yes yes....big drinks..yes yes...vodka+vodka
Thanks 👍 Mikhail !!
Weather is getting a little warmer that fish might be full of eggs but its only a guess very fat.
Yeah it certainly was a girthy one, that's for sure. Id say full of eggs as well. We did catch and release but very likely those fish will all eventually be caught.
Anyone know were this place is located would love to head down and catch some beautiful fish
It says in the video where it was filmed.
mate that's the biggest trout iv ever seen
Yep it was huge, biggest Ive ever caught thats for sure
Lures not an option because the water is murky?
100% can use lures, if you watch the full vid youll see we catch a big one at the end with a bobn spoon
I’ve never seen someone so bad with a net ahahaha
When u think you got a big fish but it turns out be a branch is so annoying.
Sure he didn't get bagged?.... it was worthy of stuffing and mounting on the wall!
Yeah 100% she was released, It was tempting though to keep one of that size and putting it on the wall, but always special watching the big ones swim away
Head first into net mate don't go for the arse end
How the heck to the fisheries make them so fat? It’s obviously tremendous fun but I kind of feel sorry for them. Unless it’s pregnant. It’s abnormal
Stop giving up the good trout spots
