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.

Thank you!
Fantastic footage guys… it’s so enjoyable watching you fish!
Good luck 🤞
Good being out on the water again. Such peace.
Love your videos guys, couple of questions: I see minute lobsters in the local Markets and even super markets here in Melbourne which state they are Australian origin, they are way under legal size so where do they get them from and how can they get away with it? Secondly - do lobsters suffer from barotrauma - once they have been hauled up 50 odd fathoms and you throw them back? Love your work ethic, safe fishing cheers Pat
Fantastic questions!
First question.
WA- have a size known as A size which is basically tiny. Haha and legal. At that size they are like a giant prawn.
The Tasmanian southern rock lobster starts at a legal size of B grade which is about 600g to 650g
Second question- Yes lobster can suffer from the barotrauma.. our hauler is set at 1fathom a second at the Max speed. Which is under the speed that causes the trauma.
It's very important not to hauler flat out 😀
Love the content and love seeing an upload. What use does the mast and boom play on your boat? Cheers 👍
The mast holds out nav lights aswell as our main lights for fishing (helps if bryce wakes up earlier to use them 😉)
The boom has 2 areas for a pulley to be shackled to for lifting ect. However we never use it as it's often to slow and also don't lift heavier items anymore.
Cool! thanks for the insight
what do you do with these octopus, I hope you have a market for them, all the best to you guys
We sure do..
Multiple markets. :) always end up on locals plates.
Hi just wondering why the rope is clipped around the pot ,is it to roll them out if they get snagged? PS love your tubes each one is getting better and more informative.👌
You are bang on the money! We call them break aways. So as you said, if the pot is snagged the break aways give us a chance of getting it back by twisting the pot and getting it unstuck.
Wow a pot full of rat BRINDLES. HARDLY WORTH THE EFFORT
If you ever need any help hit me up
Do you wholesale I wanna buy 300 kilo
These are crayfish not lobster?
They are known as souther rock lobster apart of the spiny lobster family. You can call them crayfish but they are lobster 😀

Hey guys what is the growth rate for for a lobster 🦞 say from birth to a size fish
Depending on location in Tasmania it's 5 to 7 years I believe.
