Love these videos mate ive watched you for many many years been out of the game for 10 years now came back to see yourre still punching out fantastic content! I dont have a boat so its land based for me its very hard losing so many good lures to snags i.e crankas, chubbys ect i cant really afford it anymore so i stick to soft plastics.
Awesome. Thats my kind of fishing these days. I would of hung that Cranka and Muss on a barnacle covered rock in no time so I haven't bothered buying them. I wish Shimano would bring back the original ball head jigs with that fine hook !
That was an awesome video! I love that you showed us how to use the musk and the cranker crab. Even though I didn't catch any big brim, I'm sure I can learn a lot from your tips. Thanks for the great advice!
Starlo, you are so good at what you do mate. I would love to spend the day land based with you mate. I am sure you. Could teach me a lot. I love your work.
Thanks for the vid. Must try that holding technique on flathead - I'm sick of those gill spikes getting me and holding by it's bottom jaw still lets them shake. My daughter's going to laugh at the name tho 😃
Hi Steve, another enjoyable video thankyou. The muss lure obviously would be good fished around pylons too. But watching your video I had a thought. I wonder if one day that there will be a oyster lure made. Cheers
Dear SS, i've watched a few videos of yours and the squidgies keep popping up. I am going to use the bloodworm squidgie and see if the winter whiting take them. What are your thoughts on that idea please?
I don’t have a lot of experience with your winter whiting (QLD, right?) and I don’t know how aggressive they are, but it has to be worth a try… Good luck!
Dear SS, they get into a feeding frenzy and yes Hervey Bay is my place of residence. Just taking in all my options before i go buy some more squidgies@@StarloGetsReel
Great video Starlo, as usual. I don't expect you to give away spots but it would be great if you let us know early in the video which part of the country you are fishing, since each state fishes differently. More landbased videos please!
Nice one mate! Wow that current was really ripping through. Like you said, I've found the bream lower in the harbour much much harder to catch than the ones up the river a bit. Those looked like yellowfin too? I think they might be a bit tougher than the black bream. :)
Thanks Peachy. Yes, those lower estuary reaches always seem a bit trickier on fly and lure in my experience. You’re right: they were yellowfin bream. Funny how perceptions can vary though. I’ve always regarded yellowfin as bolder and more aggressive than blacks, and therefore (generally) a little easier to fool with flies and lures than their southern cousins, but I guess it’s not that cut and dried.
Hi Steve. I have often found that estuary entrances are harder to fish than further upstream where there are weedbeds etc. I think that fish are often simply transiting the entrances --- your thoughts please.
Could be pertly that. I also think water clarity and tidal movement must play a part. They’re much more catch-able on bait in those areas than lure or fly.
@@StarloGetsReel ok thanks just watching your beach video using slow pitch jigs which are the best ones to buy I might give those a run up here off the beach
@@davidgc4396 most of them work. I was using a 40 gram Shimano one... I think they might be called a Slow Fall or something like that? But anything that flutters on the drop is good.
Great stuff, Starlo. Wanted to know, are you close to some of the boys who compete in the A.B.T Bream Pro events, like Steve Morgan and do you from time to time compete at said events? Would love to follow you in events like the Bream Pro. As I see it, livestream in the Bream Pro is closest thing to fishing for Bream yourself on You Tube, yrs Jus
Hi Justin. Yes, I know a lot of the ABT guys. Actually, I competed quite actively in the early 2000s and was NSW's first Bream Angler of the Year (AOY) in the 2001 season. I love those comps. I think I'm getting a bit old these days to actively compete, but I still follow the fortunes of those who do. It's a wonderful tournament circuit! Steve Morgan has done an awesome job with it.
"Don't you chew me off".
Sorry Steve, that line has me cracked up. For obvious reasons ! !
Love it!
Love the bread and butter fishing. Bream, flathead and whiting. So much fun.🐟🎣
Thanks, Chris! Lots more coming.
Nice catch. I used to fish the channel there at night time and took home many flathead, some flounder but just a few bream!
Thanks!
Another great vid Starlo - I love this style of fishing, good for the soul!
Thanks! I agree.
looks like paradise mate
Not bad. My backyard.☺
Great video Starlo as always.
Thanks so much, Michael!

Stunning country. Those south coast estuaries are so different than up here on the mid north coast
Yes, it’s a lovely part of the world.
That was an awesome video! I love that you showed us how to use the musk and the cranker crab. Even though I didn't catch any big brim, I'm sure I can learn a lot from your tips. Thanks for the great advice!
No worries! Glad you liked it. 👍
Great watch Steve, some awesome nuggets of information in that video. 💜🎣
Thanks so much! I love your vids, too. 👍
Great video, love this kinda fishing
Thanks!

I can't guarantee you'll never get spiked again, but it IS worth a go.

I wouldn't rule it out!

Thanks! Yes, good suggestion. This one was far south coast of NSW.
Yep, I know this spot been there and seal was in there
Dolphins next day
I may or may not have sliced my feet open on some oysters last night after I hooked up to my pb striped grunter 😂
Ouch.
Hey Starlo, What shoes do you use for your fishing? Thanks mate
I was wearing Adrenalin wetsuit-style shoes in this one. Good on the rocks.
Nice one mate! Wow that current was really ripping through. Like you said, I've found the bream lower in the harbour much much harder to catch than the ones up the river a bit. Those looked like yellowfin too? I think they might be a bit tougher than the black bream. :)

Curious Starlo, u reckon a crab fly would catch bream, always wondered cause crankas are killa 🤔
Yep, crab flies work pretty well on bream, although it’d be tough in that current.

Love those beach fishing videos Starlo. Can you do a few beach fishing videos next time you’re in Darwin please 😊
Thanks! Sure thing. 👍

May I ask what kind of lure is that sir?
Squidgy soft plastics and Cranka Crabs.
@@StarloGetsReel Thank you for the response, kind sir!
Which estuary is that Steve ?
Tuross. My local.
This is the link to my video of catching my PB bream on a Mussel Vibe lure: ruclips.net/video/ILfsh3DtZ64/видео.html
Here's one I made a few years back on fishing the Cranka Crab: ruclips.net/video/yCCY93ZsTe4/видео.html
didnt know s factor works on hard bodies
Yep, sure does. I rarely fish ANY lure - hard or soft - without a smear of S Factor.
First
Wow, Steve, your asking for trouble walking through oysters like that, one slip and your mince meat
Yes, pretty sharp.
Ooh yeah! Better stay inside where its safe.....😂😂😂
