Fishing Australia one cast at a time
Life on the road, a rod in the back and a drone in the air. I'm Cooper, and I fish my way around Australia with my family: real spots, real conditions, real fish.
Two days drone fishing in Perth
Two days, one drone and a lot of line off the beach. Watch how I find the fish from the air and drop the bait right where they are, flying the NEW Aeroo Atlas from Aeroo Drones.
Full sessions, drone drops and life on the road go up on my channel every week.

Travel & spots
Fishing our way around Australia. Where we stopped, what was biting and what to expect if you head there yourself.
Recent catches
Beaches, jetties, rocks and the odd freshwater dam. A few favourites from the last couple of seasons.
Australia is the tackle box
We travel Australia as a family, and the whole country is my fishing spot. Remote beaches, rock ledges, river mouths and jetties most people never get to.
Some days are big fish. Some days are long drives, flat tyres and camp cooking. It all goes on camera, because the trip is just as much a part of Fysh Lur as the catch.

When a pain flare had me stuck in bed, watching my fishing idols on YouTube gave me the strength to get back on the water. Now I make the videos, for the next kid who needs them. I'm a proud ambassador for The Purple Bucket Foundation and Kids In Pain.

The angler behind Fysh Lur
I'm Cooper. I travel Australia with my family, I fish saltwater, I fly drones, and I film all of it so you can come along.
Fishing with purpose
Fysh Lur started on the road. My family packed up and hit the highway, and everywhere we stopped, I had a line in the water before the kettle was on. New town, new coastline, new species, new conditions to work out.
That's the best part of travelling Australia this way. Every spot teaches you something different about the water and the fish, and I get to share all of it.
Drone fishing changed everything. Being able to spot a school 200m out, drop a bait right in front of them and film the whole thing from above is something most people have never seen. That's a big part of what I share. I fly the NEW Aeroo Atlas from Aeroo Drones, and you can get yours through my link here.
My why
I live with CRPS, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome. It's a painful condition, and some days a flare would leave me stuck in bed, unable to do much at all.
On those days I'd watch YouTube videos of my fishing idols out on the water, doing what I loved. Those videos gave me the strength to get back out there, any way I could. Some days that meant a short session off the beach. Some days it meant finding a different way to fish. But I kept fishing.
Now I'm the one making the videos. If a kid stuck in bed on a bad day watches one of mine and it gives them a reason to get back to what they love, that's why Fysh Lur exists.
“Find a way to do what you love. On the hard days, do it anyway.”
That's why I'm an ambassador for The Purple Bucket Foundation and Kids In Pain. If my videos help one kid in pain feel like they can still chase what they love, that matters to me. I shared my full story on the Pain Lives Here podcast.

Giving back
Living with pain. Fishing anyway.
Watching my fishing idols on YouTube got me through the days I was stuck in bed. Now I use my voice, and my videos, to help other kids living with pain feel believed.
“Find a way to do what you love. On the hard days, do it anyway.”
Childhood pain, purpose & the power in being believed
On Chronic Pain Australia's Pain Lives Here podcast, I talk about seven years of living with chronic pain, what it felt like not to be believed, and what helped me rebuild: the right care, the right team, and fishing.
If you're a kid in pain, or a parent of one, this one's for you.
