Underrated fisherman mindset is absolutely considering the tastes of fish. Always focusing on presentation and bait quality. Nice folks all around I'd say haha
Hi Roger, even though I'm in the uk, I love watching your channel and applying some of your tips on our uk beaches. Although due to commercial over fishing we no longer have the quantity of fish that you do, I have managed to get some quality bass and bream following your advice. As a general rule, most of our quality fish are caught at 150yds or more using powerful casting rods, so it is an absolute pleasure catching decent fish close in on light tackle. Keep up the good work. 👍
I have a suggestion for you to try, you will be surprised how effective it is to use normal garden snails. They stay on the hook, and make a good sized bait.
Big Roger! You’re a legend mate, thanks for all the learnings. I live on the GOLD COAST mate, do you have any tips on locations around here? Have you been in this area at all? Cheers legend, much respect for you 🤙🏻
Thanks Roger. I was wondering if you ever tried preparing your squid a few days ahead. I have cut my squid in bait strips and placed it into a water tight/ spit tight container and adding food coloring of yellow/ green to make a chatruse color and and salt water solution. It seems fish go crazy for the colored bait from my experience. Of course plain color prepared that way works to. I’ve always targeted bottom dwellers like flounder, sea trout and aggressive species like bluefish (mulloway). The smaller blues you catch in the surf, we call snapper blues. The big ones, over 2/ foot we call slammers. But a prepped bait like squid with blue crab is a killer. Fishing on your Australian beaches is on my bucket list I hope to do one day.
That is an interesting idea, colouring the bait. The fish he got, we call a Kahawai, and they are very happy to smash very white things. You can catch them with just a piece of white cloth, drawn at a slow pace like a lure.
@@uncletiggermclaren7592 that is a great lure choice. It must represent local bait fish. I am sure different fish species have their favorite targets. I think the colored bait might work as an attractor. I have always had great results with chartreuse colored baits and lures.
@@edherrmann182 When you were a kid, did you ever fish with a float and dough?. We have a fish called Piper here, that are hardly worth the trouble to take because they are not very big. But super cool to look at, exactly like a Marlin, except their beak is on the bottom. But all around the ( British Empire part of the ) world in the early 20th century for that very reason, fishing for Piper was a big thing, and a bit of a high art. They used blow-fly maggots on tiny hooks. Everything about the piper fishing was time consuming, they mostly grew their own maggots, and cleaned them too. Why I was telling you that is, you would frequently be fishing for piper with your two pound leaders and tiny wire hooks, and a one foot long Kahawai would spot the tiny white maggot and say "Oh, that is LOVELY, I WILL, thank you".
@@uncletiggermclaren7592 I never used bread for saltwater fish. I did however use bread and dough for carp and sometimes sunfish when I was a kid. I live about 3- hours from ocean saltwater, so most of my fishing is confined to freshwater. I am an avid fly fisherman and I tie my own flies. I have made little maggot like grubs out of latex from hospital gloves.. we have a fish somewhat similar to your piper fish called a gar. However they have very heavy scale coverings and some species can get to7- feet long and weigh several hundred kilos. They are a popular fish in the southern states. The flesh is kind of funky. They make a dish called gar balls. They are deep fried, breaded and heavily seasoned. But I’ll pass on them. The similarity when fish are young is they have a long beak and they are long and slender. It is a freshwater fish. As far as maggots go, I just need to find a road killed animal that carcass has been swarmed by flys and 7-10 days later a source of maggots becomes available. (If I can get past the stink!) Cheers
fresh strip bait (tailor, squid, bream, etc.) with 30lb leader and a heavy surf combo is my rig, been going alright with that so far. you can also throw ganged pillies if you dont have fresh bait but not as good for jewies, you'll probably catch tailor which you can use as bait!
@@josht4840 yeah I use 40lb fluro carbon mono hybrid line witha 2 pce Snyder glass beach road and a penn 950 fishing reel a 100lb wire trace and 2 hooks and a 280.gram beach grapple sinker using squid heads Tommie roughs and fresh salmon mostly, I have caught a fair few my biggest is 110cm, I haven't had any luck yet on pillies apart from catching salmon, I've never caught a tailor
@@bbqshape5798 sounds solid, i wouldnt recommend a wire trace myself though, ive caught them on my 60lb leader for tailor but best to go lighter as theyre fairly sensitive sometimes. you could definitely catch on a wire trace and if that gives you more confidence go for it, just havent had too many bite-offs on anything heavier than 30lb
Hey Roger just wondering if I can catch beach worms from where I live. I live in Geraldton WA and not many people are familiar with catching them mostly just buying it off the shelf. If you have any information on the place I live and know if I can catch them then it would be greatly appreciated 😉👍 thanks !
Hi Roger ...thanks for ur insights updates and the entire package bro❤❤❤I suggest with all due respect..Wen you insert ur rod stand into the sand esp wen it's hardsand and difficult..my bro pull out rod stand and shake off the sand that's stuck within rod stand and re insert into same hole...this with enable rod stand to go further into hold and believe me with even less force and energy...I tell this to all my people and utubers..a simple act which we over look😂😂😂🎉😮😢😂😂😂
1:58 into the vid, conditions look good, but not high energy surf. My summary : baiting with fresh frozen bait, looks like late arvo low tide, prediction : kills the pig on whiting & bream , and bust offs after sunset. Fingers crossed Roger, bring home the bacon.
Could have been a jew i have had the same thing happen a number of times they pick the bait up and then drop it but thats the mystery you never know untill you see it.
Another very good video today, Roger. I prefer the beach videos. I bought some vibes and did no good yesterday but caught a jew on bait. I reckon your's was a jew. I haven't been fishing much this last month as I wanted a new outboard and my beautiful tall, blonde wife wanted a new hip. She got her new hip and I told her she was being selfish!!
I'm sure a nice man would not intentionally hold a poor salmon gasping for breath for a full minute whilst he explained in detail the best way to cook and eat said salmon, and then throw him back!!! Salmon torture!!!
It’s always a wonder humans like you have survived for this long, back in the day there must’ve been alot soft feeling people, because I swear to god, if you ever said anything like this in front of me you’d be crab trap bait the next week, this man is doing all he can to pass his knowledge on, you think us humans are doing more harm then anything else in the ocean? Wake up brother bing, there’s sharks out there let alone massive Jewfish who would love the chance at something like you
Unbelievable, humans like you exist.Why would you even watch these informative videos. I've come across people on the beach like you whilst I've been fishing. Tree hugging animal liberationist.
@@grahamcifuentes4451no one would ever believe you wrote that as a joke 😒 if it were intended as such, you should stop trying to joke via comments as you don't know how to clearly. If you didn't need the attention you wouldn't have felt the need to comment that even as a joke on the first place.

Hey Roger could you do a video using the bcf beach worms please love to video 👍
Ya, wondering the same thing😮
Thanks!
Thank you so much Roger, you’ve single-handedly reinvigorated my love of fishing!
You are very welcome
Thanks for all the advice and you are one of my favourite youtubers👌👍🎣
Another nice video. Thanks Roger. One question: Can we use garden earth worms as baits?
I have a suggestion for you to try, you will be surprised how effective it is to use normal garden snails.
They stay on the hook, and make a good sized bait.
Thanks Roger
Great videos Roger, I am down in Cape Town, got a lot of good tips from you, thanks.
Glad to help
That was a good fish! Had to be a jewie. Thanks Roger.
You got that right!

No flat surf in sunny Qld today Roger. What are your thoughts on supermarket squid tubes?
That was a great sound.. hey.. line running.. can't wait to see it come in one day..
...likewise....
If he'd used a circle hook he probably would have landed it.
Thank you Rodger for your video your champ
You are very welcome
Love it 🤙

That was pretty awesome with the first squid bait 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
amazing video again Roger could you do a video showing all the rig set etc please
You can also put your bait in fish oils and tuna oil as well works great leaves a cent better in the water 💦
Tnx again 👍👍

So far no one has been able to confirm if there are beach worms in W.A
Hi from SA , just curious the Salmon fish that you catch is it the same Salmon that spawns in freshwater.
No, it is a different species.
Hey Roger what are those 3/0 hooks you are using? Loved the vid as always
They are a 3/0 suicide hook.

@@RogerOsborneFishing that's the least I can share to my otherwise Fishing Icon guru...Thanks a million 🙏👍
Got a tip for a 2 piece beach rod. Have bait runners from 2000 - 6500.
Love ya work.👍😎
Cool
Hi there Roger a u tell me where are you fishing. Love your shows
Roger: Recites a salmon recipe while holding a salmon
The Salmon: 👁👄👁
Thanks Roger!! We only got 1 snapper for the last 5 weeks in 4 difference beaches!! Is that normal in Winter?
Reckon a bit more hook exposure wouldve helped?
What weight sinker are you using? I'm really struggling to get my bait out far enough of the beach over here in wa
Thanks Roger we love Kahawai too

You should start selling things like hats and shirts we'll start a fishing club
12:00 and this, ladies and gentlemen, is why you should use circle hooks not J hooks. Much better hook up rates.
Yes, correcto mundo, circle hooks are the go. Proven
Hey @RogerOsbourne have you ever done a video using berley off the beach?
PS: Love the vids mate.
👍
Hey mate im from nz i cant get onto your website
good job
Ma per picchetto non puoi procurarti un angolare in alluminio??tiene molto di più di quel tubo in plastica
Where abouts are you friend?
Conjola Beach
Awesome man but that was a mulloway 100 percent
Maybe shark
Could have been a jew i have had the same thing happen a number of times they pick the bait up and then drop it but thats the mystery you never know untill you see it.
Shoulda set the hook
@@ryanmackay9718 Dont get time sit there for hours and just happens time you jump up and grab the rod its over.
