Love those beach vids Sammy. Used to do a lot of that in my younger days. Nothing like fishing on the beach and setting up camp and gathering around a nice campfire. Beers and open flame cooking the fish caught that day are awesome memories. To me thats as good as it gets ! Cheers mate and many more beach adventures.😎🐟🐟🎣🎣🎣
Sammy you need to run a competition or something to take one lucky viewer fishing with you. It always looks so exciting, you want to be there along for the ride 🎣
Awesome! Drone work on the Macks was great (sweet tune too). Just love the beach sessions, a couple of weeks and it'll be my turn. Had a giggle at the Jet Ski remark :-) Great stuff Sammy.
A double banger, well done Sammy, I don't think I have ever seen that done before, one things for sure I'm not going to bother fishing for tailor during daylight hours any more, unles i can see the bust up.
Hey Sammy, Awesome video, loved the catch cook, keep it coming. Why don`t you target mulloway off the beach? The water looked perfect for them, and there must have been some around with all the baitfish about. Tight Lines from sunny South Africa.
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it. I do chase mulloway off the beach, just didn’t get any that trip. Usually put a larger bait out after dark to see if anything comes through 👌👌
Gday Sammy, loved the vid, just a gear question, looking at one of the amia zero rods, how do you rate it compared to the others you’ve had some experience with?
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Brilliant thanks for the response mate! And no, not many 12ft’s these days, good to know they’re the goods though, that and their reputation has sold me haha! Tight lines, hoping to see a few nice greenies from ya this season. Cheers
I'm from Texas USA, and I've never understood why we can't get the same vehicle configurations that y'all have!I would love to have the 4X4 diesel engine setup here in the States! It would definitely make my wifes Toyota Highlander a lot more useful! Thanks Sammy for another great video!!
The average diesel in Texas is an F250. Waay heavier than your Toyota. Little diesels are, for some reason not allowed, not offered, never understood that either. They would be awesome in lots of places. Our sand on Padre island National seashore and South Padre is pretty fine. Unless we've had really high tides and or hard rain and packed it down pretty good there's some areas where you'll just bury up in a big truck. Even with deflated tires. I know lots of people who've been all 60 miles of PINS in a big diesel, I've never timed it right, and to be honest I've never needed to.
Love your channel brother, just a tip.... put a couple of pieces of tapes on your rod and measure them apart to the length of the minimum size fish. this way you can check it when you reel the fish in instead of going back to your truck to get the measuring tape.
Thanks mate! Great idea! I usually have a ruler with me in my wading bag, but didn’t have it on me cause the fishing was tough and I was moving around heaps!
Any tips for the Alvey setup. I have one but seem to get twist in the mono line. I use same breaking strain swivels as the main line. I note your using a running sinker or similar rig.
I use pretty large swivels to help keep the twist down, and also allow my line to spin after every cast to help it unravel. I use what’s called a restricted sinker rig. Which means it sits between 2 swivels 👌👌
That's amazing Matre. First I have ever seen that. Yet I did not fish with a gang hooks set up. Is there any way of showing me how to make a gang hook. 🇨🇦
Sammy, rookie tip for you. If you use the same rod for beach fishing targeting taylor and such, go to an automotive paint supplier and get a small touch up bottle (for chip repairs) and paint the legal size for taylor on your rod in a neat little line. No need for the run around and get the ruler to measure the fish. Just bang it up against the rod and if it's good, it's good. Keeps the fish in better health too.
I put strips of electrical insulation tape up around the rod, measured from the top of the grip. 25cm for bream, 30 for dart, 35 for tailor. Hold the fish against the rod, instant decision whether I can keep or release.
Not a bad idea mate! Thanks for that! I usually have a wading bag on me with a ruler in it. Too be fair I usually try to keep the ones that don’t need to be measured but was struggling a bit on that day!!
Aha if I did a challenge like this I would go hungry I swear I’m cursed at surf fishing I should stick to the estuaries and lakes 😅 anyways great video Sam keep it up
You have the best way of fishing at your fingertips, design something that will fit on a drown then just let the line run and get the drone to drop the lure and then fist as normal.
Sammy making double sure the ranger didnt have any issues with his permit ... by walking up to him with a bloody big knife in the other hand ... lucky we're not in America lol
I love the way google puts up "Translate to English" on your comment and then when you click on it it comes up with "Noise". Wonder if we could suggest they get an Aussie AI function.🤣
🤣🤣🤣 no time for that business mate, had fish to catch. That’s me having a drink out of a 5L Coleman water bottle. You’ll see me take the lid off and put it down on the camera case @ 31:09mins. Can’t a man have a drink of water without getting labeled!?! 🤣🤣
Love my Kaffir/Makrut lime tree...I live somewhere they should never grow. But I have a grow tent, grow light, and a dwarf stock tree. Just got my first 2/9 limes off the tree too! I have a Yuzu to go with it too...not sure how I'm going to stunt that tree, but it has 2 fruit on it! Just an FYI, Kaffir is a lot racist....in one language, just a lime in another. Thus Makrut, I guess? Stems from apartheid and S. Africa. Afrikaans is to blame. Either way, to stay out of trouble with one group or another, Makrut is more "acceptable". How long of a rod are you running? Okuma makes a few 12' rods that would do you well and is a tad bit less chonky, those are indeed thicc girls. Though I think you have sponsors in that department, so maybe a useless suggestion. Rockaway if you chance a look. Nice and light, cast like a dream. I have no idea how you cast that center pin....but I've never tried, either. LOL
Thanks for the heads up! They have always been called Kaffir lime here 🤷♂️🤷♂️ The rods are custom built bait fishing rods. They are built a little thicker for a softer action and to be more resilient on the rocks etc. the spinning rods I use are a lot different and are super lightweight 👌👌 I’ll check out your suggestions though🍻🍻
Old Sammy have you joined the kids fishing RUclips channel.Why would any body call it a fishing challenge what about I’m doing a overnighted on the beach
Nice to see you on the beach again.
Sadly couldn't be with you.
I think I missed out on a lot of fun 😢
Nice video too mate, well done.
Have to do another trip soon then tez 👌👌
Saw you on the island a few times last Monday, managed to catch a nice feed later in the afternoon coming back down the beach from Jumpinpin.
Oh that’s epic mate, should have stopped in for a chat, glad to hear you got a few as well 💪💪And thanks so much for the donation 🙌🙌🍻🍻

Bloody oath mate, doesn’t get too much better in my books either that’s for sure! 👌👌
Finally some catch clean and cook videos, been missing these
You're the 👌 best
Thanks mate, yeah been a little while but managed to do a bit of cooking this time 👌👌
Well played sir. Just cracked a sneaky mid-week beer while living vicariously through you mate.
I do enjoy your beach runs. Top shelf simplicity.
How good mate! Not a bad way to celebrate hump day!! Thanks for watching 🍻🍻
Always good to see you showing different styles of fishing 🎣 interesting to hear you explaining how you look for the gutters
🙌🙌 glad you enjoyed it mate! Thanks for watching!
Sammy you need to run a competition or something to take one lucky viewer fishing with you. It always looks so exciting, you want to be there along for the ride 🎣
Working on a few things like that mate 👌👌
Still watching but wanted to say that drone footage was incredible! Love the content Sammy, thank you
Thanks mate! Was awesome having jasper on the camera for this one 👌👌
From a salty old sea dog , I love a good beach session , That was a great video , Cant wait for part 2
Nothing beats a good old beach session! Cheers for watching 🍻🍻
Sammy,
Walking up to the Ranger with a knife!
Ha, in these times lucky you didn’t get tasered.😂
Hahah yeah I need to pay more attention next time, didn’t even realize I was holding it 🤣🤣
Ahaha I was thinking the same thing 😂
That’s why he stayed in the car.😵💫😬
Awesome! Drone work on the Macks was great (sweet tune too). Just love the beach sessions, a couple of weeks and it'll be my turn. Had a giggle at the Jet Ski remark :-) Great stuff Sammy.
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it! All the best for your session 🍻🍻
i was NOT expecting you to mention the one and only tim naki lmao!
Hahah he’s a legend! Deserves a mention 🤣🤣👌👌
Tim is King!
A double banger, well done Sammy, I don't think I have ever seen that done before, one things for sure I'm not going to bother fishing for tailor during daylight hours any more, unles i can see the bust up.
Yeah that’s a first for me too, especially on a 2 hook rig! The daytime can still produce some good catch, just have to pick your day 👌👌
Great vid yet again Sammy! Looking forward to the Tailor season ahead.
Plenty more tailor videos to come that’s for sure!!
That last green back was awesome love it bro ❤
Thanks mate! 🍻🍻
Great video, drone, dinner and of course, fishing!
🙌🙌🙌 thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it 🍻🍻
fun times....Fingers crossed we are out in our boat this coming Tuesday here in WA ♥♥
Hope you get some nice weather! Thanks for watching 🍻🍻
hay mate great video. quick question what's your hand cam set up called and what kind of microphone are you using?
Hey mate, it’s just a gopro with a rode directional mic on it. Nothing too crazy 👍
Nothing better than a good beach session great work mate 👌

That Tailor fish salad looked delicious!
Thanks! It’s damn good, the perfect beach lunch 🤤🤤

@@SammyHitzkeFishing No problem, I get tips from your channel too on the fishing

Thanks very much mate! Appreciate the support! 🍻🍻
Hey Sammy,
Whats the yellow leader you are running before the hooks on the bait rig ?
Hey mate, that’s just a little piece of lumo tube 👍
That's amazing Matre. First I have ever seen that. Yet I did not fish with a gang hooks set up. Is there any way of showing me how to make a gang hook. 🇨🇦
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it! If you RUclips how to make gang hooks there is a stack of videos that go through it step by step 👌👌
Good on ya eating some Sharky. We should all take one for a feed, that might help with the outta control numbers.
Bloody oath mate, tastes great and we all need to start doing our bit!
Keep it up Sammy I love watching your videos pls try to make more 😅😊
Thanks mate 🍻🍻
Don’t you have a release clip on drone drop lure among bait school ?
Yeah mate I surely do, didn’t think it was worth it for a mac tuna, if they were longtails or tailor it might have been a different story!

Thanks for watching 🍻🍻
Sammy what size hooks do you use for the dart?
I like size #2 mustad baitholders 👍👍
You have the best way of fishing at your fingertips, design something that will fit on a drown then just let the line run and get the drone to drop the lure and then fist as normal.
I have a release clip for the drone! Might have to bring it out at some stage. Maybe when the are longtails or big tailor not just Mac tuna 👍👍
And it looks like your enjoying to good work samy
Running with tailor is like running with a pair of scissors 🤣🎣
🤣🤣🤣 always point them away from you!
Heyyyy Sammy what beach is that mate ? Great work, love your videos keep em coming 😎
Sign on the side of the rangers ute said Minjerrabah, so I'm guessing Nth Straddie Mate.
Yeah mate Straddie, thanks for watching 🍻🍻
Can't believe you didn't fish with the pipes. Great bait.
Why don’t you use your drone to drop the lure?
Thought about it, if they were longtail tuna or tailor I might have given it a whirl. A lot of effort and drone battery to do it!
How sweet it is 👍😍 a sunset and a hot tailor bite. 🍺🍺🍺
What are using for your rod holders in the sand?
Thanks very much! Glad you liked it 😊😊
The rod holders are just some Polly pipe cut to length with some reflective tape on the end 👌👌
Great video,where is this beach?(roughly)
what beach wore you at
No one gives there spots out mate
@@CrerarAdventures Doesn't matter here Mate, it's not worth the barge fee to get there.
Straddie mate 👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing thanks.
Great vid as always Sammy :) just one thing. Where’d that 200 come from and where is the mighty mighty Paj?!
Hahah the paj was getting very tired. Decided to upgrade before it left me stranded somewhere 👌👌
Sammy making double sure the ranger didnt have any issues with his permit ... by walking up to him with a bloody big knife in the other hand ... lucky we're not in America lol
was thinking the same thing lmao
Didn't even make the effort to get out the car.
Hahaha I forgot I was even holding the knife! Was mid cook up 🤣🤣
I know what the ranger said first “ ex excuse me Mr Hitzke, ah just wondering if you might have a beach permit sorry to bother you”.😬
Meeting the Ranger was viral the way you were waving the knife at him! Lucky we are in Oz, not the USA, otherwise we would be reading your obituary!
Hahah yeah that’s very true! Would have been on the news for sure! 🤣
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Love your channel and the vids. Thanks
Nice drone footage mate.
Thanks mate! 🍻🍻
Cheers Mate from Canada
What happened to the Vag did shauno make you buy a Toyota?
Hahah it was time for an upgrade. I’m a changed man!
# 43:05 like father like son. living the dream
Hahah 🍻🍻🍻
Good to see you get revenge on the men in bronze suit's 😂😂
Hahah well I don’t think we are square just yet, but still thought I’d do my bit 😉
cheers sammy i have been waiting for a while for some beach fishing vids
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed it 🍻🍻🍻
Gold raider again!!! Did you buy the last 1000 :)
Hahah I’ve got a good stockpile. This one’s a gold surecatch knight 👍👍
Nice ep Sammy
Should head west and hook up with rob riches he’ll put you onto some big tailor pinkies n mullys
Hey mate! Yeah I’ve seen Robbie nail some epic fish off the beach! Going to have to do a WA trip sooner or later 👌👌
Sharks 2045 Sammy 1
Good to get one back on the tax man! Tasty too.
A long way to go to get even! Baby steps though 🤣
Hey mate what beach is that 🤔
Stradbroke mate 👍
I back the statement that Tailor make short work of a finger. A Tailor took a big chuck out of my index finger. Like a hot knife through butter... 🤕
Ahhhh yep, you gotta watch them, once they get hold of something they don’t like giving it back! 😬😬
If you approached the ranger with a knife like that in some other parts of the world, it may have been a dangerous move!
🤣🤣🤣 yeah very much so!
You know you approached the ranger with a knife yeah😅😅😅
Hahah yeahhhhhh only noticed that after! Didn’t even realized I was still holding the knife!
@@SammyHitzkeFishing gold
Is this Bribie, mate?
I think it's Straddie
@DCA001TUBE ahh yep, makes sense. Thanks mate!
Yeah mate straddie 👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing thanks mate! Haven't been to Straddie yet. Keep up the content.
Viral video: The Ranger stopped me and I approached him with a knife.
🤣🤣🤣
Why do i feel like i’m watching a used car sales pitch right out the gate? 😂
🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ wanna buy some old fishing gear? 🤣
What island
Stradbroke 👍
Unfortunately here in the states you're not allowed to have any alcohol on the beach
Really? That seems like a bit of harsh rule! Why not?
