Hi robbie, its mike from the barossa I would like to thank you so much for your time on wednesday, when I met you and adam down at the river, it made my holiday to have met you both and catch my first murray cray (sorry I dropped a few). please keep up the fantastic work you do to help so many. all the very best with the Make a Wish Foundation promotional work you are starting to endevour in, I am sure all your subscribers will get on board to help. Thanks so much again mike
Mike, Just for you, If you watch the next time Robbie pulls the net in, It's empty..... but if it wasn't, he would have tipped them all out to. And he does this all the time... lol
Hi Mike thanks so much for dropping by. It was wonderful to meet you, such a well spoken gentleman. Hopefully we bump into each other again some day. Adam is a gem. I don't see him as often these days. We both habe differing rosters amd family commitments. It was by chance that we bumped into each other. I have enormous amounts of respect for Adam, he's one if the best.

suffering from mental health illness's (im not gonna say bc its personal) but that made me nearly cry i look up to you so much robbie ur amazing keep it up
I'm here for any help, or just to talk if you need young man. I also have been struggling with mental health issues myself all my life mate. You keep happy, and don't forget that there's plenty of help here, all the support you could imagine my friend.
Thanks buddy. I hooe you're Ok. I myself have been in some dark places. I've had to work out ways to cope to get through. I call them tools. Tools which I can use to het get through the bad times. .take care my friend.
HI Miles, i hear you and yep Robbie does inspire and motivate us all, got me back into my fishing and it has been the best thing. I dont think people understand how debilitating it can be and for Robbie to bring it up is another step in the education of the community about this problem. Thumbs up for you MIles
Robbie, Thankyou. Mental health is a serious issue, I appreciate you addressing it, and making it aware for the public. I am here for any advice, help, or just an ear to lend. I will try to support anyone, and everone. Stay positive, try and laugh at every opportunity, and overall look around you for support, a loving and kind soul to talk to. Peace guys.👍😁💚🇦🇺 Nice haul of crays bro!! I haven t been out once this season . Glad to see they are up and about still. Cheers my friend. 👍💚🇦🇺
@@robbiefishing BROTHER, I like to think I'm a pretty good judge of character. I knew from day 1, I'd come across a great channel.. then I got to know you, and your kind soul. I could tell by looking in your eyes mate, I knew some deep troubles have been your way. I also, do. But... it's guys like you Robbie, you make us all happy, smile, feel good and enjoy the simple beauty of outdoors recreation. It is truly my honor, to have you in my life mate. And I'll always be here, I'm always here for ANYTHING you need. ANY time. Much love, respect, and thanks mate. I honestly feel better every time I see your face. 👊💚😄😉💪💚🇦🇺 I can't wait til I tap you on the shoulder, and say, "g'day, Robbie, guess who?!" It will be awesome. I am single, by choice.. it I'm the best uncle.. and I know my little nephew wants to meet you, he's 11.. but he has a motorbike race the same day... so me and my sis are trying to work out the times... what time does it start mate and it's in wang??
I loved this!!!!! The crayfish, well they were ok. Robbie, seen him a million time. Drop nets and bait, seen all that before... But the fact that a bloke wanders over and has never seen a cray, And you step aside and let him check the nets and hold a cray (which you could see made his day) well that's what it's all about.. and alone that speaks volumes about you mate. Loved it, well done!
Hey mate thanks so much for your kind words. Mike sure was a gem. It gave me a real buzz to see him catch his first crayfish. He had been kayak fishing at William Hovell all day the day before and didn't get a bite.
Hi Robbie nice video my dad has done a number of plumbing jobs on rexes hunts house in beau Morris he even took me to meet him believe it or not he is knowledgeable and really nice in person great to see him speaking up
Hi Vinnie, I believe it. I too know Rex personally. He is a friend of mine. He taught me to fly fish, and even gave me his fly rod. He's a very generous and genuine man. Not many people can say that Rex Hunt bought them a steak sandwich while wearing his waders backwards. Hahaha
Great video old mate.. I love your enthusiasm.. Well spoken about Rex and the struggles many people deal with. It’s a silent problem.. Catch up soon hopefully 👍👍
Love the ingenuity to get your float back. Its so good that you got crays right in the middle of Wangaratta shows the system and laws are working. So good that you mentioned mens mental health issues as we loose six men a day from this unasked for, unwanted and misunderstood disease. It is a huge problem due to the pressures of life these days. Take a mate fishing and you will find they will relax and talk and open up. Being outdoors away from the grind and taking in the surrounds really does help, Great stuff Robbie for speaking up, Talk to your mates, listen and dont judge. Big thumbs up.
It's great that you acknowledged mental health issues. As someone who suffers form it, my saving grace has been fishing on more then one occasion. Keep up the great work
Thank you so much Peter. I am in the exact same boat. Fishing has been a real strength through my battles. Just fishing on my own, taking in the resh air, observing nature and charging my batteries. I hope you are going well now mate.
Same same Peter fishing has been the best for me as well, All the shit seems to ease and bring you back to the now when your out on the water, if fishing helps mate try do more i hear you
@@robbiefishing Hi Robbie, I am doing ok at the moment as you k ow we all have our ups and downs. I plan on casting a line again when the weather warms up as here in SA the fishing is not as good as the eastern states. How I miss the trout in the Goulbourn, the flatties at Corner inlet just to name a few top places. Tight lines buddy
@@murrayprosser5082 People say fishing is for lazy people, we just sit there and pull in a fish every now and then (if your lucky enough in SA to do so) but they dont see the therapeutic side of it. Tight lines buddy
I don't think I've ever seen that many crays in 1 net before. And then there was even more in there later on! Loved the scoring system for your net throws mate hahahaha
Hey Robbie, I know you released this video a couple years ago but I loved this message at the start for mental health. We're in a time where it's worse than it's ever been.
No doubt you made a few peoples day that day. You made my day today watching your video. Great video. A man will always remember his first cray fish especially when its on RUclips on the one and only Robbie Alexanders channel.
OMG Mike (Wally), you are giving South Australians a bad name with that less than perfect net retrieval! Loved the net throw scoring! I never watch movies with a score 9/10 or higher. They're always overeighted.
Mr 95 cm Cray does not know how lucky he is. The presence of the crays explains why the cod was in there. Feeding on younger crays and getting fat for spawning season :) Good on ya Mike Wally. That was great that you got to check out your first Murray Cray. They are awesome creatures.
@@robbiefishing Mate, it was an appropriately affectionate use of the Wally. What a legend you are and what a sport Mike was about it all. Great stuff.
Robbie you are a friendly man !! It’s awesome to see you support such a great cause, lots of us suffer from the black dog bitting us. The more it’s spoken about the more it’s demistafied well done mate. No feed of Crays this time mate, with only a couple of weeks left you need to get stuck in !!
Robbie that was really nice of you to let that man (Mike) pull the net in for you even though he lost more than you were able to catch all day but when you lost the float I had to laugh as you always say put your foot on it before you toss it in the water or tie it to a stick and then push the stick in the bank
I was out on a charter in the Gulf of Mexico fishing with some friends. One of my friends was a little tipsy and all of a sudden he yells " I am going to throw my bait a mile!" He went to cast it out and threw pole and all into the drink. Lol! Have a great day mate.
The edwards river here in deniliquin is full of cray's and we ain't allowed to catch them any more .I miss the days when you could walk down to the river and get a feed of cray's .Keep up the good work mate
See Robbie whenever you talk about someone who holds a special place in your heart you get lucky 🍀 just like when you spoke about that wonderful teacher who loved fishing 🎣 too then you caught that Bonza trout. Really enjoyed listening to everything you said it is very true 👍
Man those are sone nice crayfish Robbie! They might be considered undersized over there but here in S. Louisiana they would be monsters ha ha!You were spot on about mental illness. Keep up the good work!
Hi Robert thanks so much mate. These are the second largest freshwater crayfish In the world, secondly only to the giant Tasmanian crayfish. Everything in Australia seems to be big. LOL
Hey buddy those nets are actually named drop nets in the south east United States (Charleston,south Carolina). We use them to catch blue crab. As soon as you move that string they go into fight or flight mode. If you put them a few feet apart and drop them from the side of that bridge there beside y’all I could only imagine you could catch more than you’d know what to do with. Good luck P.S. you’d still have to pull them kinda quick but not near like you do the way you’re doing now
Hey buddy thanks so much for your very kind feedback. You are definitely spot on. We call them drop nets here too some times. Some people call them cray nets or cray pots. I actually have a video with a yabby fitting through the air that was flicked up by the string. Hahaha
Thank you robb for the kind words on mental healh more people need to understand that enyone is vunrable to it and not just the poor ,ive only just checkt your vlog and will continue to watch it now from down under in england haha we mite have probs but we are giffted with a massive hart and understanding ,😢cheers robb 👍👍👍👍
Great job and video mate. I looking to chase some freshwater shrimp as well as small yabbies for bait. Do you have any tips and what baits should I use. I am using opera nets and one small shrimp net. Any tips??? Tight Lines mate
Thanks mate. I find both yabbies and shrimp are easier to catch in the warmer weather.. I'm not sure what opera house net laws are in your state but here in Victoria they're fully illegal. Shrimp like water with decent levels of oxygen. Yabbies like stagnant water. I hooe this helps mate.
Aww take it easy on Mike, Murray crays are nonexistant in SA, We're used to Yabbies that tend to just hang around in the hoop nets and we don't need to just reef them in
Haha thanks mate. Mike was a genuine gentleman. Is everyone in SA as nice as Mike? I was so happy to see him catch a crayfish. I wonder if they ever existed down there?
@@robbiefishing Most people are. Not sure about the Murray Crays but I've never seen or even heard of people catching them here, everyone knows if you want some you have to go way upstream into Vic and NSW.
@@robbiefishing No probs. I once saw one of these in a place where i thought i'd never see them and it was humongous! Like the size of a big saltwater cray, it must have been very old. LOL, we gave it it's life! But one day I'd like to fish for them, only ever caught the regular dam crays. Great channel!
Thanks Phoebe. It is because they are found in the Murray River catchment. The Murray River is the biggest river in Australia by volume. (Not by length). It divides the state's of Victoria (where I live) and New South Wales (where I don't live).
Thanks mate. We have smaller species but these ones are the biggest in my area and the second biggest freshwater crayfish in the world. Amazing crustaceans.
Thanks heaps Kevin. Haha secret spot....I went to go there the night before I made this video after work, but there were 5 cars there. That was BEFORE I made the video. LOL Its Wangaratta most popular spot. In fact, it's probably the most popular spot on the entire river.

good job today robbie nice crayfish. i have a question do you know why the fish and crayfish are called "murry" ?
Thanks Phoebe. It is because they are found in the Murray River catchment.
The Murray River is the biggest river in Australia by volume. (Not by length).

Cray Jackpot indeed! I got my first cray in worms whilst I was handling for carp

Hey mate do you know any good places to trout fish around bright and porpunka
Hey Buddy anywhere in the Ovens River upstream if Bright is worth a try mate.
I laughed on patreon and I’ve laughed on here now. Classic net toss mate. 😂
Hahahaha thanks Gerry. I couldn't believe it when the entire net went in. 🤣🤣🤣
Great video as usual Robbie! But a call to the local fisheries may be required to stop anyone taking advantage of that (secret spot you’ve found).
Thanks heaps Kevin. Haha secret spot....I went to go there the night before I made this video after work, but there were 5 cars there. That was BEFORE I made the video. LOL
Its Wangaratta most popular spot. In fact, it's probably the most popular spot on the entire river.
robbiefishing yes but did they know about the Crays.
@@kevdimo6459 Yes mate. It's quite common to see people crayfishing in the middle of Wang.
robbiefishing well it’s great to see the Rivers are so healthy and the locals are obviously doing the right thing. Congratulations Wangaratta!
