I can only imagine how proud you must feel💪 he got the heart of a natural born Fishermen" it shows its not going to be a phase.. he's gonna grow up into this passion even more" it's going to be the best feeling ever some day when you older and he takes you and his lity fishing👍
A true champion in development , hat's of for his indurance and determination and a dad that is very proud and caring over the skills that will stand for the test of time . His got a hard of a lion . Well done Zander and God bless . 🎣
Only just found you guys on RUclips and busy binge watching all your videos. Making me lekker homesick, now live in the Isle of Wight UK. A very proud moment for you both.
Well done! He is doing what many of us are dreaming of! Don’t stress about the edibles Zander. Watching you fish is like a mini escape to the coast every week, regardless of the species you catch! Chin up 😁
Absolutely one if not the best video you have done. A father gives every piece of himself into his son. This you can see from this video. Well done the both of you.
Looks like that's the one that's definitely the one well done xandre awsome 🦈👏🙌🙌👍💥 new face of zoolook in the making gotta watch out papa he's almost there super stoked for that laaitie very very proud of him lekker👏👏
Priceless father and son moments. Fishing is such a great sport for that… so many conversations that you would never have with your boy in the hustle and bustle of regular life. Lekka!
Great video that is such a father and son experience it's priceless. The statement about galjeon fishing it's getting worse as the years go by. From the monsters that used to be caught it's really bad.
Well done Xandre on your magnificent catch and PB.👏🎣 Xander, I've said on numerous times that he will land his big one. Congratulations to the both of you on this great achievement. Not long and Xandre will get his provincial colours.
Zander I am always amazed at this young man. The first video I ever watched of yours was when he landed the 120kg raggie at age 6 or 7. Ever since then I have followed your channel. He is an amazing angler with a great heart for the sport. Spend as much time as you can fishing with him while both of you can. I know you encourage him to achieve great heights and he certainly will become a great angler.
You have shown what experience determination and patience can achieve. The skill of an experience adult in the mind of a 9 year old. There is nothing you can't do. The world will see more of you. Epic shark catches. It is a real pleasure seeing you fish. 🦈🐟🎣👌
Zander! you got a massive FAN from Australia mate. i will watch you grow my little man. and someday we will fish together somewhere in Australian coastline. so proud of you....Yewwwww!!!!!!
Awesome seeing that boy do something big men dream about congratulations to him,you should be proud sir!! an a big shout out to you as well for being the backbone of his experience you a really good dad , hope things turn out better for the edibles looking forward for the next video… be safe wherever you go
Well done on his catches, making special moments and memories. Also for you as his dad. I have been wanting to see how that champion 6 handles a shark , thank you 👌👌👌 I can't wait to get mine when they eventually land
Well done boetie Xandre , you are definitely an inspiration to the young upcoming Anglers , love your persistent and determination to do better , well done to you dad on mentoring your boy and educating him on how to catch the beautiful fish , I'm sure you are a #ProudDad! , I would love to see more content of this kid getting stuck into more giants !! Tight lines boys!!
awesome video i can really relate to edible fishing. its so hard wen they aren't present but its also handly when the inedibles r around to make fishing somehow worth it haha
At 9 years old he's already hit a PB of 140+ and here I am, with only a cold caught. Well done youngster! He's set for amazing things! Jy's 'n kwaai derra!
Dit I so mooi om die jong man te sien met sulke uithou vermoë om sy haai te land. Welgedaan jong man. Baie dankie vir die uitstekende videos wat jy uitsit. Geniet elke een wat uitkom, hou so aan. Stywe lyne mag daar nog baie wees💪💪💪
Lewens lesse kom in alle vorms, en hier is een van hulle: Nothing is accomplished without effort, Keep trying, Never give up and you will reap the benefits/rewards. Weereens, pragtig Grootman.
Absolutely loved this! There was no way you were taking the rod off him!! BTW, if you ever come to Australia, there are a ton of guys here who would love to take you both fishing. Tight lines!
Wow bro....litey is already a legend doing what many adult guys dream of...watching him inspired me too try and catch a big shark of that size. Oneday 😎
Well done Boetie!! 👏 🦈 I see alot of comments about how good he is gonna be when he grows up but in all fairness he is already an amazing angler in his own right. Jy doen n goeie Job met sy grootmaak Xander ✔
Hi Zander, what sort of ROD holder do you use for this short butt rods ? please let me know if i can make one or should i order one from South Africa ?
Hi, I usually use a stainless sand spike like this one in the link. I am sure you can make it or have it made there. stilfishing.com/collections/tools/products/novateur-stainless-steel-sand-spike?_pos=1&_sid=12be7ebc5&_ss=r
Hi, it is to conserve energy. By pulling on the rod only tires you out and you do not put more pressure on the fish, so rather straight stick it over the shoulder and conserve energy while applying pressure to the fish. This way you have the energy to endure the fight and to put more pressure when the shark is close without having a too sore back👌🏻 by walking up you are pulling it closer and then just walk down while you are reeling to gain line and repeat👌🏻
I thought something along these lines but when walking up and pulling the shark aren't you concerned about line breaking as you are pulling dead weight especially if drag is tight/ holding the reel
You are not forcing when you do that, you are just applying even pressure and when you feel it is necessary for the shark to take line you just let it go.
Baie cool video!! Hoe sê hulle .. die appel val nie ver van die boom af nie! Wens ekt so leermeester soos jy gehad! Zander dink die 6000 Saragosa is te klein vir die Bluefish 13ft ?
Sjo amazing well done dad and son. Vang daai bronzies terwyl jy kan oor n paar weeke is hulle weg dan gaan jy wens jy het meer gevang. Ons n bronzie manne ons kan heel dag na jou bronzie videos kyk. Asseblief moenie trug hou nie ;) .
'Ek wil niks 'moanery' hoor nie. Dit is reg Xander, hulle leer deur ondervinding en nou weet hy hoe dit voel. Hi shame Pa, kyk daai gesiggie wanneer die Bronzie lyn vat, jy kan sien hoe hy daai spool stukkend kyk! Pragtig Zandre, baie geluk groot man, wys daai 'Toppie' hoe dit gedoen word.
Teach them young . Wow !
He’s gonna be dangerous in the fishing game when he’s older! Amazing to see what he’s achieving with your help💪 keep it going young man🎣🦈
Brought a big smile to my face. Andre's determination, mental and physical strength is inspiring. No wonder you are a proud dad Xander.
I can only imagine how proud you must feel💪 he got the heart of a natural born Fishermen" it shows its not going to be a phase.. he's gonna grow up into this passion even more" it's going to be the best feeling ever some day when you older and he takes you and his lity fishing👍
Mate he is going to be an absolute weapon! I hope he enjoys it.
He loves it!

Awe Xander watse rigting moet die wind waai om Dbaai so plat te kry?
what a champ!
Hi Xander. What is the concept behind "rod over the shoulder and walking back away from the water"?
Hi, it is to conserve energy. By pulling on the rod only tires you out and you do not put more pressure on the fish, so rather straight stick it over the shoulder and conserve energy while applying pressure to the fish. This way you have the energy to endure the fight and to put more pressure when the shark is close without having a too sore back👌🏻 by walking up you are pulling it closer and then just walk down while you are reeling to gain line and repeat👌🏻

Baie cool video!! Hoe sê hulle .. die appel val nie ver van die boom af nie! Wens ekt so leermeester soos jy gehad! Zander dink die 6000 Saragosa is te klein vir die Bluefish 13ft ?
