- I headed out recently to one of my local estuaries armed with a variety of soft plastic, hard body lures and micro jigs. I picked up a few on the plastics, but the most productive lures were the micro jigs!
Please join me as I jig up a mixed bag that really get my drag screaming. You will see it all from the hit to the release, so kick back and enjoy.
Great video, very calm under pressure
Hey Anthony, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. It's not always easy to stay calm when the adrenaline is pumping, but you don't want to stuff up all your hard work by rushing things at a crucial time. A few deep breathes always helps, but the more often you put yourself in that scenario, the better prepared you are for the next time.
@@RocketsFishingAdventures If only I was put in that situation more often! I'm also discovering the joy of microjigs - have caught a few jewfish on 20g jigs in 20-30m of water, great stuff!
nice fishing and nice place to fish
Love how calm you are fighting the fish!
Thanks! Sometimes its not easy to stay calm when the adrenaline is pumping.
@@RocketsFishingAdventures yeh its far more entertaining to watch and far more interesting and suspenseful, i see a lot of fishing channels that just brute force yank the fish around and fling it on board but its quite stressful and irritating to watch, they probably have money to throw around on lures n stuff, whereas you're style is a lot more soothing in a sense.
Thanks Hawkeye, glad you enjoyed the video 😎
Well taken mate, easy and controlled
Thanks Adam. 😎
Always enjoy watching your stuff mate! Well done 😉🎣🐟
Thanks mate, I had a lot of fun that session and was stoked to get it on video to share.
nice stuff mate
Thanks mate! I have not done a lot of micro jigging, but I always make sure to have a few in the box now😉
Great job well played
Thanks mate!
Good day out, some nice fish there
Thanks Cam, it was a good session and I hope to get back out there again soon.
Good stuff mate glad I came across your Chanel some great stuff
Thanks Jake, really appreciate the feedback. Please share with your fishing friends and I'll check out your vids too ;)
Cheers Rocket will do,, hopefully have a new bream kayak vid up late next week if everything goes to plan this weekend lol
Nice work mate!
Your recent videos were definitely an encouragement to give them a crack. Glad I did, thanks :)
Nice one Rocket
G'day Ant! Thanks mate.
i wish my estuaries and canals were as good as that!
Most systems hold decent fish, but it can take a lot of time and effort to find them!
Nice to meet you today mate! Keen to see the footage of my threddy and the pictures!
Hey Mikey, I just finished watching the raw footage. Will send you the still pics via email soon. Did you get some good ones on your mobiles too? Was great to see you stay calm, trust in your tackle, and work with your mates as a team to catch that cracking fish, well done! Glad I was there to share the experience.
Yeah mate got some great stills on my phone, will be uploading the pictures to instagram @mikeyridings tomorrow night most likely. I just received your email and am just replying now, thank you for the support on the catch.
Good days fishing Bro
Hey Barry, thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, much appreciated!
What size/brand micro jugs do you like for the river? I use them a lot off shore in the reefs and love them.
Hello Mr Madkeen! I have had most success with the 20g Storm Koika, but have also caught fish on 7g Sailfin Micro Jig. It is worth noting that I am far from an expert and have just been experimenting.
Nice video, go the micro jig. Subbed
Let me know if you ever want to get rid off that blue raider lol i love them rods haha nice video mate 👍
Thanks mate 😎
Great vid! Gotta be pretty happy with the variety of fish you caught to. So were you just searching for bait and dropping it down, or just where you saw bait and arches also? Thanks
Hi Geoff, thanks for watching mate. I was looking mainly for bait. My sounder is only a base model so I don't use it to pin point fish, more to locate likely areas. Seeing the odd arch does give me confidence to spend more time in the area though 😉
@@RocketsFishingAdventures appreciate the reply mate. Think I'll go get myself one and give it a crack 👍
what jig is this?
I have had most success with the 20g Storm Koika, but have also caught fish on 7g Sailfin Micro Jig
@@RocketsFishingAdventures any particular colour mate?
Micro jagging! :p
I'm please to confirm that the Jewfish was cleanly hooked in the corner of the mouth :) The other fishermen that I was talking to in the boat also hooked two flathead in the stomach that day. For some reason that were just laying on the lures instead of inhaling them.
You're pretty funny haha
What is that last jig
Hi buks on, that was a 20g Storm Koika
what river is this ?
Sorry, I don't share specific locations on social media. Happy to help with tips on technique and gear, but finding your own spots is part of the challenge.
@@RocketsFishingAdventures im not asking exactly were you were fishing im just wondering what river it is lmao p
@@qlik9216 and if I were to say on my videos or in the comments what river it is, then that spot on the river becomes a lot more easily recognizable. My original comment stands. A large part of the challenge of fishing is exploring your local systems, spending time and learning where the bait sits at what tides and when the predators feed. So spend time on the water to improve your fishing...or just laugh your ass off. Your call.
Watch Luke's kayak fishing adventures or fishing warriors both those channel's as many others are not as secretive to sharing locations or names of River systems and estuaries 🤙
looks like coomera river?
First comment on this legends video
Thanks Dannii, hope you enjoyed watching!
what sounder do you use mate? Loved the video
Hey Cal, thanks mate. That sounder is an old Humminbird PiranhaMAX 150. It was a pretty basic unit that had served me well for about 10 years but it has unfortunately since died and is about to be replaced.
Do you use any wire caps for the sounder? If so where from?
Not sure what you mean by wire caps. Do you mean the connectors that you put on the end of the power cord to go to the battery? If so, yes I do. I bought some crimp on connectors from Altronics and a crimping tool.
Sorry should clarify myself first, have you drilled holes into your yak to install the sounder? If so what have you used to cover the holes
I didn't drill any holes for this install. I used what is called a wet mount for the transducer and then mounted the head unit on a ram mount in the hobie mast fitting area. I am making a vid of the wet mount process for the new sounder at the moment and will publish it soon.
What size are the braid and leader ? Close your drag man
Hello Hussain. That is a 1000 size reel, 2-4 kg rod, 5lb braid and 8lb leader. Not exactly the kind of gear that you could lock up the drag on and dictate terms to a fish of that size.
