tinny1 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Just a short video of the bait grounds at Balmoral on Sunday morning , didn't see any squid but plenty of yakkas which were very tempremental, it took 2 of us 40mins to land 12.It was an absolutely great day apart from a big fat zero on the kings they just didn't want any part of our lively little yakkas .We saw a few rats landed within 4mtrs of our boat but those guys were fishing freshly caught "dead" squid.Sorry about the quality but had the camera setup wrong DOH http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QlkHx6zR3U&list=UUf3IZbKJhs2LAwu7_jOyiIA&feature=c4-overview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paikea Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 What an amazing video of baitfish chewing burley. Tried to identify all of the different species of fish, fun trying but sure that I missed some. Thanks for sharing. By the way, what camera did you use? Cheers Paikea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flickn Mad Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Thanks for posting the vid. I could watch them for ages. The yakkas did look pretty relaxed, I some times find white bread soaked and mashed so it is like a milky cloud when you flick a small handfull into the trail fires them up.

Linc Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 nice vid mate, look at all those damn sweep fighting for the bait, pesky buggers they are. found mince meat keeps them relatively quiet but yakkas still like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quochuy Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Yakkas at Balmoral are "trained" to eat minced beef man :-D try that next time on a size 12 long shank hook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinny1 Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 good tips fellas , its a GO PRO 3 SILVER edition but like i said i screwed up and the setting should have been set to 1080p HD anyway next time you should be able to see their scales .There were a few boats around and not many bringing them in and as it turned out the No1 live bait squid was the choice of kingies that day ,i need to get my act together and get those lolli pops 1st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostproperty Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 We hit up the harbour on sat and had limited success like you guys. Had no problems getting lives, yakkas and even slimies as well as there were heaps schooling up. Spun up a rat king on a metal lure off the colours other than that all quiet, no luck with the squid either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
