Good job mate 👊👊

[@anglinguntangled]

Cheers Dave, good to be back at it!

[@flash2mc]

Great video. Really helpful advice. Thank you🙏

[@anglinguntangled]

My pleasure mate, cheers 🤙🏼

[@scotty2077]

Very informative mate! Keep them coming! I understand now why I never catch whiting haha

[@anglinguntangled]

😂 we we’re having terrible luck that time we went down to lake Mac years ago too. Grab a 70mm Sugapen and you’ll start slaying them 🤘

[@davidmcnamara7489]

I’m watching your back catalogue of videos. I recently bought a kayak. Looking forward to getting it wet. Cracker whiting! Is that Dora Creek way? I’ve heard Cockle Creek is good for bream?
🤓🎣👍

[@anglinguntangled]

Cheers mate! Yep that video is Dora creek and my first video chasing bream is cockle creek. Plenty of smaller ones in there but the odd decent one mixed in. Both great places to fish from a kayak

[@wizardnebula8572]

Looks fun, do you know of any spots that you can catch whiting in the harbour?

[@anglinguntangled]

Haven’t tried topwater for bream or whiting in the harbour for lack of good looking spots actually. Your best bet would’ve horseshoe beach (the dog beach) or over by carrington boat ramp. Both are gonna be pretty busy this time of year. Horseshoe does hold good whiting though and I do a bit of bait fishing there occasionally

[@wizardnebula8572]

@@anglinguntangled thanks for the info, I’ll give horseshoe beach a go.

[@JohnSmith-wq8jn]

Is this in dora creek? I didn't think you would get whiting up there

[@anglinguntangled]

Never heard of the place 😌. But If it’s still salt water and there’s a nipper bed there’s likely whiting around looking for a feed

[@tightlines6641]

[@needmoreboost6369]

Yeah there’s whiting 50cm+ and I’ll add to that surfboard sized flathead!
