There were no new uploads on Briggsy Sport Fishing this week, but this late-October outing carries the strongest daily momentum in the catalogue. It has reached roughly 79,000 views, with Briggsy's early tailor setting up a contest that soon gets less straightforward.
Strong waves prompt Nat to try a heavier jig head and a larger grub-tail plastic. Then something heavy refuses to come off the sand. The eventual arrival of a stargazer briefly turns the lure test into a discussion about what, exactly, they have hooked. Flathead bring the attention back to the measuring mat, while Briggsy changes his hardbody lure in search of another opening.
The channel added about 1,000 subscribers across the week, and daily viewing is a little above its usual pace. Among nearby outdoors channels, Trent Ellis had a particularly busy viewing week; YouFishTV was quieter, with subscribers unchanged.
Behind the lure contest, July's "Fishing Beach Gutters from High Tide to Low Tide..." is also drawing daily views, followed by "The biggest I ever caught...". Beach structure, changing water and the possibility of something substantial on the line give Briggsy's upload-free week plenty to browse.
