Hey man I just want to give you some tips but you should troll rmg lures around the 10 meter deep mark you can get 4-5-6-8 meter diving lures and I catch crap tons of mackerel there and there are two colours I use and that is the red and white quantas colour and another one with red stripes and sparkle I don’t know what it’s called thought and the second wreck is covered in school Mack’s so if you use a paternoster rig with a whole pillie you get many
A great guy to watch on the tube for fishing tips in far North Queensland is Andy’s fishing and wild cook. He definitely knows what his talking about 🤙🏼
35 year old skateboarder from nz here... your wee family popped up on my home page when I was watching skateboarding so I watched a vid and then a tonne of vids on both pages. Big inspiration to just be happy. hope you guys love life as much as we love the vids. Love the fishing chart and figuring out what fish is which and all that raw stuff.
hey great vid mate. So stoked you finally got a trout. Those fish you kept catching (including the one snagged on the coral) are called honeycomb or bird wire cod. Like all cod they have to be 38cm but few very rarely grow that size. Since the trout have tiny scales, you can fry strips in oil and it tastes aazing..There are a few campsites located on double hence the buildings. Cheers for the great content man!
Hey son, love the videos and the energy you bring to them ! They were Rock Cods that you guys were catching that you were unsure about... You can also tell that Conner is a good, young, respectable fella and i think you guys are going to get a heap of 3m flatties and make a lot of memories and content together !! Peace out brother xx
Awesome videos mate. If you get up to the Daintree river. Launch at the ramp in the village and head about 2 km downstream and the weed bed on the left is loaded with Barra. Watch out for Fat Albert the croc though.
Great work, I wreken get one of those long sleeve breathable from BCF. You can always wet it it will keep you cool out there. Maybe a hat too ay stops the sunburn.
Good catch mate that’s a coral trout the red ones with tiny blue spots are reef trout that u get at the Great Barrier Reef but the brown one (like u court) and the other red one with big blue spots are island trout the legal limit is 38cm
Hey mate you like fishing the Mulgrave its a beautiful system. Were the mouth is they called it Russell Heads n the islands are High n Russell islands good for snorkling etc. The Sand bars change every year down there cause of the big floods in the wet season. I'm not sure if you still can but there are houses n huts down to hire if ya wanna spend the weekend.
@@lukefalzon Hey mate I'm from Cairns been here 30 years. Love ya vids good to see your enjoying the far nth. Mate you've got choices galore up here. Plenty to explore the fresh water creeks n rivers are good as well n Tinaroo dam big barra hard to catch but. I could go on forever haha enjoy your new playground bro good luck lukey!!!! N bro u think it's hot now remember we're in early spring hahaha.
Filleting needs some work bro 🤣🤣 Kurrimine Beach fishing comp on this weekend. About 90 mins south of Cairns . You should head down for it! Always an awesome weekend
@@lukefalzon Yeah I'm heading down. It's reef and creek fishing but they target different fish each year. It's a big party each afternoon with heaps of prizes. Great community.
Those 5 or so fish you asked about are cod's. Good eating, the flesh is soft but it tastes pretty good 👌 Great vids man too, keep em coming. Would love to be in and around the tropical coast.
Hey Luke, Been loving your videos! I’ve noticed you troll really slow. Try trolling around 8-10kph when you’re out in the open (not little creeks) I reckon you’ll get more hits 👍
Hey mate great day out by the looks. U mite need to get a bimini to keep that sun off ya on a big day out on the water. Not fun or good getting sun burnt aye. Fish looks beauty cooked up crumbed. How are u liking living in far north Queensland? cheers 🍻
Hey m8 love the videos Coral Trouts are great to eat so are those Tusk fish that you caught they are great too and the cod are nice when they are size all white fleshed fish, miss the QLD weather ,make the most off it m8 take care tight lines
Hey mate good video Coral trout is good with the skin on scale the fish first then fillet the trout and cook in shallow oil the trout wings are also beautiful on the BBQ with just salt pepper
Fark, watching you eat coral trout and saying I don’t know what it tastes like, man, you will not taste a better fish, but hey, you come from those southern states, you don’t know better, LoL The tusk fish legal size is 25 cm, so you could of tasted a very nice fish and you through it back, well, in time you will learn better, enjoy your time in the best state in Australia, Luke, Cheers mate.
Luke next time you catch some Corel trout after you have taken off the fillet cut up the skin in finger size pieces and panfry it in some oil it’s go good to have with a beer. 🍻🤙🏽
Coral trout is the tastiest fish 👌 If you want something cool to do in FNQ you can walk to king reef off of Kurrimine beach when there's a big low tide
Hey bra. Depending where your from different people will call the same fish different things. Those little cod you were catching we have always called wire netting cod. I’ve caught hundreds and been fishing in NQ since I was a kid and never caught a legal size one so don’t know what they taste like! Good luck all the best there aren’t many fish up here that don’t taste good if fresh caught and cooked properly lots of people will try rubbish lots of different fish which are perfectly good to eat. Some fish won’t freeze as well as others is something else to keep in mind.
@@lukefalzon yeh for sure an queenies they get em off the palm cove jetty all the time an anywhere in between yorkeys an double island but out abit wider an also out near end of the leads leaving the inlet so all those beacons you see right out the end 👌🏻
@@lukefalzon For sure there would be big Spanish mackerels where you were trawling. Up the speed a bit, you were going too slow for the pelagic fish like mackerel, and queen fish. These fish hit at tremendous speeds. The reason you were catching "coral" type fish (coral trout, cod, etc.) was that you were going too slow. There's nothing wrong with catching coral trout for eating, but for sheer fun the pelagic fish are where to go.
cut the skin up of the trout into little strips too bro and cook that up in a little bit of oil salt. Taste like KFC chicken skin mate, no shit! So good 👍👍
Mate you’re in Qld now that sun bites, be sun smart, hat and long sleeves minimum, I even wear light weight long fishing pants. As a bonus it helps with the bugs.
In saying that, you might have a chance to catch a Spanish mackerel. Use Big gear,braid 60pound,leader, black magic Hook s livies. Ask your nearish tackle store mate about mackerel
hey luke, rock cod is that fish you keep catching good eating, and i prefer all my fish skin on, as a chef i rate ur filleting skillz very low as you should gut the fish, the yellow staining on the fish meat is the fishes stomach acid as you punctured it while filleting, both fish would of been less waste and better eating wrapped in alfoil with butter and lemon in its gut, yummm

Go upstream from deeral boat ramp and flick the fresh for barra. Goes good
Coral trout wings and the head good for a coconut curry fish soup 👌 nothing goes to waste when come to coral trout.
Good idea love it bro I’m going to try it thank you 😊 where you from?
you got such a positive energy brother 😎😎🤙🤙
I try bro thank you dan, where are you from?
@@lukefalzon brisbane brother... might be joining you up there soon hopefully, will be moving for work 😊
Coral trout is the tastiest fish 👌 If you want something cool to do in FNQ you can walk to king reef off of Kurrimine beach when there's a big low tide
Loving the videos mate!!!!
awesome im so glad you like them :) how are you?
You should go to blackfellow creek near the Edmonton coles jumps there are some fresh water fish
You need a hat bro! Looks good fun mate

all the cod you got were honey comb cod and they are good eating but gotta be bigger
sweet brother thank you for the heads up bro
cut the skin up of the trout into little strips too bro and cook that up in a little bit of oil salt. Taste like KFC chicken skin mate, no shit! So good 👍👍

It’s a rock cod pretty good eating as long as you eat it in fish tacos or with something
Another Great Video

Love your videos
plenty of crabs down near the old sea swift barge,.. on way to red bank.
Next time you get a coral trout, cut the skin into little strips and deep fry it. Bit of salt and it’s like crackle!

Hey bro, you can go a bit faster trialling. I'm up in Mornington Island 🏝️ paradise mate
The Coral trout bake it whole wrapped in alfoil. Then you don't waste any 😊👌
That’s a coral trout Great eating loved the vid to
hey luke, rock cod is that fish you keep catching good eating, and i prefer all my fish skin on, as a chef i rate ur filleting skillz very low as you should gut the fish, the yellow staining on the fish meat is the fishes stomach acid as you punctured it while filleting, both fish would of been less waste and better eating wrapped in alfoil with butter and lemon in its gut, yummm
And yes you can eat black spot cod there not bad but the coral trout that’s one of the best eating fish 🙌🏼
Thank you my friend 👍🏼 I hope your well
yo i love you and your vids man
Look up coral trout crackle.should give you an idea of what to do with the skin.👌
the first 2 fish in the blue water were coral trout and a honey comb cod

@@lukefalzon yeah bdro just gotta be like 40 or somthing cms
On the Google search bar there is a camera you can take photos of the fish and find out what it is
Coral trout and tusky both one of the best eating fishes
Go all the way up the arm 👍🏽
Done ✅ brother :)
