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.

Success always to sea warriors,
I am very happy to see your video, thank you for sharing your experience...👍
Hello from alaska mate, nice vessel captain. I really like your pot rack very nice very nice. I've spent many years pulling pot here in alaska, an I must admit I like your design, very simple, easy to maintain well done sir.
Fantastic footage as usual, thank you.
Cheers :) appreciate it.
Good watching once again
thanks deb!
Cool footage of working right next to the breakers....awesomeness
cheers, hope you enjoyed.
Your a trooper Lochie, some nice fish, love your work fellas :-)
He works alright 😉
@@Aussielobsterhunters dont get me wrong, with reef breaks like that Skipper looks after his boat and his crew...have surfed 50 footers in a 29 foot boat and they overtook us open ocean back of Rottnest at +30 knots scary as !
@@scotttillotson3962 Yeah right. Things can definitely go wrong fast around the breaks. We had gear inside the breaks. But I didn't film up pulling it. Was focused on working out where was "safe" vs "not" for the video. Keept the boat bow into it to ensure if something went wrong one on the chin should be alright.
Lochies a little after the fact lobster promo lol keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching 😀
Great video again guys. Heres another question 4ya. How come you don't get any Giant Tasmanian crabs in your pots? Ive seen them in tanks at Portland caught by cray boats there. Cheers Pat
We do get them, but don't purposefully target them 😀 you require quota to keep them. However we have the quota but lease it to other fisherman.
Lobsters in the river forth are blue black and turn red when cooked in Scotland hope the laddie is alright lovely video BTW😊
Thanks roxy!
Rope is something you tie up your goat with when your a fisherman it’s called line. A propeller is on an airplane on a boat it’s called a wheel. Catch em up.
Can't agree with that sorry... we call it a prop or propeller. The "line" is called rope in almost all situations. Haha
Awesome video again guys commented a few times now but when you throw back under size are shark fudder or they go straight back to habitat. No disrespect in that question
The lobster go straight back down. When we do research trips. We specifically capture undersized lobster take them then return them within the caught area.
Those lobsters are caught frequently in the same area.
Our lobster have a very high success rate of return
Great question
Thankyou for response 👍
Wow nice! I was wondering...how do you keep the crab out of the pots?
hey! the type of bottom we target doesn't tend to hold the crabs :)
Very interesting what’s the size down there , must be a bit bigger than SA I’m curious too what does a decky make in TAS
Good video really enjoyed it
Cheers from Southern SA
decky pay depends on the boat as most boats and industry's. because the vessel we work owns 50% of caught yearly quota so deckhands pay is larger then others.
lobster size is 105mm female and 110mm male
Hi mate I’m from uk and was wondering what a person would need to do to join fishing, I have been a lobster fisherman here over 6 years and all 16.5 meter captains tickets
Well morganb' if your going think we going with you for the crack and keen fishermen outa Whitby to boot lol
Where do you sell them off the wharf?
Often at Margate wharf 😀 southern tasmania.
Nothing should happen to you guys out there while you have traffic cone boy out there lol.
He loves being a traffic cone.. hahaha
Awww look, captain cokehead is still riding Daddies coattail. At least this one doesn't need to be towed home once a week.
if you didn't know family run business's tend to involve the family... as employees, strange i know... I didn't realize assisting my father into an early semi retirement was a bad thing especially for major health reasons. But anyway not here to please others when they are only jealous of my fathers hard work and success during his career. Let alone watch his son achieve also.
@@Aussielobsterhunters I wouldn't be sprouting anything to do with family. Your old man loved to knife his own family in the back whilst playing the illness card... #StillHasntPaidUp
