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.

Very enjoyable , you are a responsible fisher ! you don’t rape the good spots ! there is always tomorrow or a next time to come back. 👍 fishing for the future. I realise you are a commercial fishing boat and you have all sorts of expenses it is not all good/ profit . Love your videos ❤️ hats off to you both . Keep safe out there. All the best for the future. Cheers Geoff 🦞🦞👍😀
Thanks Geoff! As good as the $$ looks you are right. Things are very tight atm. Very unaffordable to fish.
Lucky person is the decky at the moment.
All the best. Thanks for watching.
Love these vids
glad to hear! i will be trying to do 2 to 3 a week for a bit, hah need to play catch up!
Lol lockie your lobster dance looks a lot like my shrimp dance 😂😂😂
Nice catch!
Thanks for another great episoe fellas!
Glad you enjoyed it
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸Gigantic lobsters. Nice video🌷
Hello 👋
Great entertainment guys. Wish we could eat lobster here just too damn expensive. NW France. Subbed.
How many lobsters are on that $16,000 catch fir the day, I'm tired watching because in every trap there are only 2-5 pieces of lobster which is good for business the rest are not because it's too small to sell but the catch were huge in every trap👍👍👍
Bryce, this is Simon from Key West, met you at the dock at Margate back in January.
Wondering how long your soak time is between pulls? Must be measured in hours since you only fish 52 traps.
Interesting how fisheries develop. Here in the spiny lobster fishery in Florida, a typical boat would fish 2-3000 (thousand) traps with soak times between 1-3 weeks.
Mean yearly (August-April) catch in order of 30-40000 lbs. ( 15-20000kg).
No quota to purchase, but we get less than half the dockside price of you guys adjusting for US/AUS dollar
G'day Simon! Hope you and the family are well! How were the rest of the travels?
Our soak times for 'day' shots are around 4hours. Enough time to eat then have a snooze hah.
When you are throwing back the undersized do mark it for the following year since they have to find new digs??
Nope, don't need to in this industry :)
Do you ever sit down to a crayfish meal?
Not unless it's Easter, or Christmas haha.
Nice video
What's the measurements and size of your traps I'd like to create one as an apprentice welder
I shall measure one up in a future video! Might even do a CZcams short. About it.
Throw the captain in he moved the pots
52 fathoms. So lobs don't suffer barratrauma?
Great question they do actually. Our haulers are set at a slower speed. Some people don't but we definitely do! 😀
How much did the decky earn for the day seaing he was doing all the work
He did all the work? He can't make money without a good skipper. Hahah pots don't land on spots without both working together, boats don't maintain themselves without the 2 working together.. gear also doesn't maintain itself without the 2 of us..
He also doesn't get feed without the skipper paying. Ect ect... ect.
He made more then people can in a week's work for the day.
But in saying that. He can also go a month or more without working.
@@Aussielobsterhunters ok 12/ would be gd
Do you ever see any Orca’s when you’re out there
Only ever seen 2. But they are definitely about!
Anjir klo di Indonesia di ambil semua itu. Tanpa sortir
what are prices like now,
Small prices are up. Big prices are down. Average about $58 per kg. Maybe $60 at the moment
It was 10 not 11 😂
This is where？？？？
Japan
Sound like a couple of Brits
Definitely not haha
@@Aussielobsterhunters sorry mate. Regards from England. Keep catching
Please dont overfish, manage the ressource carefully
We can't, its quota keeps us from "overfishing" however we have steps inplace that insure increases in stock levels.
@@Aussielobsterhunters gooood
cmon mate, get a better microphone
One day
hey you guy need after school hour he does not know how to count ha ha ha
