  • WATCH this VLOG series as we head on out to the southern ocean to fish for Southern Rock Lobster here in Tasmania.
    Onboard the commercial fishing vessel Chieftain a 17.5m/57ft steel Tasmanian built vessel now 23 years old run by a Cummins NT855.
    Thank you everyone for liking and subscribing. We are new to this CZcams video stuff so its very rough, as you can expect things will get a lot smoother as this series progresses and into the future.
    Apologies for Audio quality I am slowly getting use to using the microphones.
    NOTE; Here is a current scenario:
    If I want to leave the wharf, with current prices
    Quota is $34 per kg I need 1500kg at minimum that's $51,000 out of pocket already.
    i now need Fuel which is $2.02 per liter i need 1500L = $3000
    i am at $54,000 still haven't left
    i best get some Bait for the pots $4 per kg i need 1500kg= $6000
    food for crew and i $800 -$1000 for up to 2 weeks
    now i can leave the wharf, I'm only $61,000 out of pocket.
    CRAYFISH PRICE on return of 2 weeks at sea $55 PER KG
    $55x1500kg = $82,500 take out my expenses before i left the wharf, I've got $21,500 left Lets not forget I haven't paid insurance, maintenance of vessel, repairs, lost or broken fishing gear, Bank repayments and superannuation.

    I know you said you take none of them home but when you tip a tub of them over do you log where that happened or ????

    • @Aussielobsterhunters

      They are thrown back within an area of capture. That's why they can't just pull all the pots and wait for the researches. So they pull 1 pot for each researcher then drive in circles or drift within the pots zone to ensure the fish go back to the same spots.

    What was the biggest one for the trip or were they all small stuff

    • @Aussielobsterhunters
      @Aussielobsterhunters  Před 2 měsíci +2

      They aim to catch only small stuff. But I would guess no bigger then maybe a 1.5kg
