yea that particular day was pretty sloppy. No I don't take anything as I got my sea legs when I was a kid fishing with my dad. Lots of fond memories throwing up over the side of the boat!

@@bradleyseeto 🤣 oh yes, I don't throw up anymore thankfully.... the rough stuff just makes me nauseous till I get back on land

Storm Adajo AJS631-1. It's just a boat slow jigging rod

I also have the boondox and loved it until the weight got too much and started to bulge underload. So I have retired it and now using the railblaza c-tug R. You probably don't want to hear this but I personally wouldn't use it, not unless you are really careful with how much weight is placed on it. I even created a larger custom backing plate to fit into the kayak to spread the load but even then it just couldn't handle it. So it was safer just to convert over to the c-tug r and not have any worries. Hobie really need to start innovating as the scupper carts were great at the time, now everyone carries a lot more gear and you'll see more scupper cracks in the forums. The horizontal bar on the ctug R does a great job in distributing the load. I have a torqeedo 403 electric motor which came with a large battery that will last all day if you don't go full throttle constantly. Expensive unit but I can't see myself fishing without it.

live yakka and herring/pilchards

I use these straps share.temu.com/dsD3jjXGyIA

ALR thanks, but whee do you hook the clip onto the rod

@@srduckyoce1084ahh yes I use a thin Velcro strap prob about 1cm wide and wrap a stainless steel key ring around the rod. I make sure the Velcro isn’t on too tight to allow it to slide up and down the rod butt. Also make sure you have atleast one wrap around the rod before securing the key ring to avoid scratches.

1/0 hooks

Unfortunately I won't be able to remember this! My guess less than 1m.

@@bradleyseeto allgood bro. Keen to give it a crack offshore that’s all haha

It's a Storm Adajo PE1 slow jigging rod. It's an old model which isn't made anymore.

Yes squid can be caught, but not consistently

Were did you launch from what area is that what pound line are you useing there

oh wow please atleast take me out to dinner first! :)

@bradleyseeto ok dinner first then your secret spots haha

Nice catch bro.. are the kings around in the winter?

Thanks but I wouldn't call myself good, just lucky sometimes. Firstly you need to find the fish on the sounder and they try various lures. For vertical jigging I'm just using a 150g lure and just pause every so often. They can be found sometimes hanging in shallow waters 12-15m so you don't need to jig that fast. If they don't take the vertical, I'll switch to slow jigs. When they are picky they'll only take live squid or cuttlefish.

Awesome. Do you come through the bridge sometimes or just stay on the up side ?😂

more wrecks to explore on the upside

Thanks

A few drops of water had made its way through the back of the HDS connector and corroded through some electronics. Sent it lowrance and they quoted me $903 for a new unit. I accepted the cost and when the new unit arrived the first thing I did was tighten the screws on all the back plugs. I now have a spare 3 in 1 transducer.

20lb double paternoster

I get them from Temu. Just replace the metal crimp and use 2 cable ties to secure it, then an optional step is to put heat shrink over it. They are strong I’ve accidentally towed my net in the water for about 5mins and the cord will spring back to its original shape. share.temu.com/nKE4jT36AIA

At the end of the video which no one probably saw, I sashimi the fish, so yes I eat this fish.

But down under we call it garfish 😂

One day mate but crabbing season is almost over! Hairtail is around the corner but not sure how productive it’ll be during the day in winter.

You’re welcome

In some systems crab traps aren’t allowed so they can only be line caught

@@bradleyseeto what system is this

@@enterthedragon5979 I need your promise not to tell anyone first! 😂 it’s ok no one reads the comments anyway, our secret will be safe for many years. Brisbane Water shhh 🤫

Circle hooks still have barbs on them

Thanks

Lol probably never

I think they are great, it's not a dry flesh when cooked but will require a bit of seasoning to bring out the flavour.

Taste like.... Wait for it.... Chicken. 🙌🏼💥

Haha Legen......Dary!

Agreed! It’s great to see more anglers now utilising these species

I think it might be James, hard to tell. Either way don’t tell Michael cause when this CZcams channel finally monetises in 10 years time I might have to pay him for appearance fees. 😂

@@bradleyseeto Bahahaha No worries. Just take me with you next time you go for a hair tail. XD

You're welcome

Thanks for visiting

Nah when comes to video editing I’m very unmotivated and It’s a thankless task!

Have you been out for Hairtail at your usual lately????? Iv missed the last 2 seasons and I'd love to land a few this year.

@@fish04fun65 we will be heading out targeting hairtail soon. From April for sure 👍

@@JYLFishing Really? XD I though you were into Gof these days bro, LOL

Thanks

North Harbour Sailing Club

Thanks

Yea it was a bit sloppy, but sometimes the horrible conditions produce the best fishing. I didn't feel unsafe, just uncomfortable as I was getting hit by waves in 2 directions and also waves from passing boats!

Yes I'm using a wire leader

@@bradleyseeto Just curiosity. I'm also use from time to time.

Thanks

Yea Captain Isaac's boat! 😊

Thanks
