  • Thank you so much for checking out my RUclips channel - Lukes Fishin Mission!
    I honestly hope you enjoy watching my videos just as much as I enjoy making them!
    Fishing is my absolute passion! I am a mad-keen fisherman who spends all my free time fishing somewhere.
    Lukes Fishin Mission prides itself on bringing the style of fishing that is relatable and able to be done by most people. Not everyone can afford a $100K+ boat to fish the offshore reefs so I like to display the exceptional fishing that can be had by people who can fish off the land, cheap kayak or small tinny!
    Don't let your wallet be the limiting factor - there is no limitation to determination, enthusiasm and your sense of adventure! It is what you make of it!!

    I will always make the time to reply to questions as I am always keen to help other anglers.
    Thank you so much once again for following me. I really appreciate it!

    The council should definitely look at making a fishing competition to reduce the numbers of these invasive fish in the waterways around Mackay. They have done similar with the cane toads years ago

    Awesome work mate, maybe you can try a atomic 38 crank, the smaller profile and hooks may get more hook ups.

      Thanks Jeff and yeah I’ll definitely downsize. There were a couple of the smaller ones who were a bit hesitant to hit the 60mm. They weren’t quite sure. Crank 38 will fix them up for sure 👍

    This is strange...i got told off TWICE by a council worker that you CAN'T fish in there.
    "Directive from management" because its a "wildlife habitat" I was told. She acknowledged there's no signage, but said that didn't matter.

    • @lukesfishinmission7596
      @lukesfishinmission7596  5 месяцев назад

      If that was the case than I’d suggest they put signage up. They just don’t like people fishing there because of the public interface and the occasional stinky fish being left on the bank. It’s just an old anabranch of the pioneer river. 5 council staff saw me fishing and said nothing. 1 actually said there are more of them (jag cichlids) over there, encouraging me. Fishing here is the only thing keeping the numbers down which is a hell of a lot more than what council are doing about the problem. There is no mention on their website either. Sounds like one disgruntled person doesn’t like people fishing it but just because that’s her opinion, doesn’t make it disallowed

    Here in Miami South Florida we kinda love our invasive species. All the waterways are controlled by fish from Asia central South America, etc. South Florida is a haven for invasive animals from all over the world. as far as the fish it’s just catching release sometimes people eat them.

      Yeah I’ve heard all the lakes in Florida are overrun with invasive species. With all due respect, but that’s exactly what we are trying to avoid here. We don’t want to end up like Florida witch regards to pest fish
