Catching Jewfish Lake Macquarie Fishing

Last weekend of May 2023. Got a fair few fish this weekend. Mainly good sized flatties between 55cm and 70cm. I will put them in a separate video later this week. This video is just a 90cm jewfish on its own with some under water footage.
I'm finding out how hard it is to make a fish swim in front of the camera and then stay still for a while.

Thanks Dave👍just trying to keep up with you. I think so far just this year I'm only about 250 jewfish behind ya😂

What a nice dew and well done on the underwater footage.
Always stepping up the game and giving us great content.
Thank you

Thanks Reg. I guess I'm lucky that it happened on the 2nd outing with the under water set up

Nice one Pete, loving the underwater shot mate ... great idea with the underwater camera set up 👍

[@petersimpson4916]

Thanks Crebo. Its a bit of a handful doing every thing with a rod with a fish on in one hand and trying to manage the camera with the other, but I'm sure you are familiar with this as you already have some videos with under water footage. I've been wanting to do this for a while. I'll see if the novelty wears off😂

Great jewy Pete i was waiting for it to scream off. Strange how they fight differently also nice underwater videoing.

[@petersimpson4916]

Thanks Andrew👍 I would normally expect an explosive run early on too, but not with this one for some reason.

Good stuff pete 🙌 after watching that footage i can guarantee we will see a jewy shake u off at that camera 😂😂 on the plus side it will make excellent viewing 🤣

[@petersimpson4916]

🤣🤣 I guarantee it will happen too Andrew. It's already happened on Saturday with a flatty.
If I'm ever lucky enough to get a real big dog one day, maybe I need to just net the fish and get the footage of release only.
