G'day Fellow Fishos, I hope you enjoyed the video! We are slowly getting there on the video production side of things. James is working hard to improve his editing skills and it's great to see him growing in confidence as a fisherman and a video editor. As I said in the video, if you have any questions or fishing tips for us feel free to whack them down in the comments section. Thanks for your support guys! Cheers :)
Bleed the tuna as soon as it hits the deck, will improve its taste greatly. Keep it up Mark. Love the look of your boat.
Bleed all fish but yeah especially pelagics.
It's also important to prevent them from bruising themselves, we have carpet on the deck and iki them
@@joedennehy386 What, in your experience is more important in terms of maximising the end result/respecting the product; wire up the spinal cord; bleeding; brain spike?
An actual real fishing trip where not everything ends up with a giant on the lure. Always enjoy your content mate, keep up the good work.
Hello Mike how are you doing and how was your weekend 😊
Try bleeding all your fish before putting them on ice, an old fisherman once told me if you are going to kill something, look after it the very best you can. I am so glad I listened to him as the eating quality of my catch improved out of sight. Love the video keep them coming.
For a fisherman you would make a good gardener 🤣🤣
LOL...
We all should do what he’s doing
I was in front of you in the boat ramp line up @ spinnaker ramp and followed you out towards moreton!
I got onto a couple fish but was lumpy off the cape, we also came back inside looking for cover! Nice vid, good luck next outing!
Don't sweat it Mark - You videos reflect reality where you don't catch a bagful every time. As you gain experience it will change and we'll enjoy the journey with you.
Fishing SEQ is a tough gig, lots of you tubers make it look so easy. nice to see an honest video. don't worry, I am in the same boat and your doing better then me. Tight lines.
Welcome to fishing.... you have days like like that, you can see em on the bottom but once the wind blows up ya may aswell pack up and head home... ya done the right thing, I really enjoy watching all your videos on your other channel aswell as this one, keep up the good work mate you have taugh me heaps with gardening i must of watched hours of your vids👍
Hey Mark, you'll have better hook ups if you circle a busting school so your boat skirts around but your lure goes through the school. That way the fish don't spook and dive down
Another approach is to drive the boat tangential to the school, then when you are directly off to the side of it, turn the boat 45 degrees towards the side the school is on. This will drag your lure straight through the school.
Thanks for the advice Adrian its greatly appreciated will do!
Definitely a skipjack tuna you caught there and as mentioned a couple of times in the comments need to bleed it straight away and ice it down. Keep plugging away at it mate you will find your groove in no time and be boating more fish
He definitely have the rig for it. I'd love that Stabi
Great to see you again Mark, missed you on both of your channels. Hope you and yours are well, best wishes from Britain 👍🇦🇺🇬🇧🇦🇺🇬🇧
Wow, it must be truely epic to be able to catch tuna yourself. Doesn't get any fresher than that!
Loved this video. It's a nice change of pass to see you outside the garden. Maybe next outing you will have more luck.
I love to go fishing. Catching fish, is a bonus! It's the whole experience that I go for.. 😁 The Captains around here, when the seas get rough, punch it. I think that is my favorite part..Kick back and hang on! 🤣🤣 BTW- once in a while, give your chickens the leftovers. They will pick a fish carcass clean. It's still ends up in the garden and it's a very good treat for the birds.
Hey Mark. Fello stabi owner here. One tip. Don't hook your hooks on the ceramic part of the guides.
Thanks Ian for leaving that comment had a look online for the reason but now I know. Cheers!
Try pushing your knife blade lightly against the bones when cutting through the meat. Sometimes called "dragging" the blade. The sharper the knife, the easier it is.
The fish monger pros will normally have razor sharp knife's. Cut down to the bone between the head & wing (front flipper) and then simply cut down the backbone, pressing firmly against the spine.
Another use for the heads & bones is soup or stock. Boil for 30-40 minutes, strain and use/store.
Cor! It does look rough! Glad you got something to show anyway Mark. This makes me think of my mother. Any water hole was a fishing hole. She could catch fish with a stick and a safety pin. Her favorite thing to do was go out in the channel when we lived in Ketchikan, and stay for hours on that Bayliner. Sometimes you don't catch much. But you do get to enjoy fishing and time with friends and family.
Great start for a beginner. Definetly learn to become very proficient in using your fish finder/ sounder. Watch a few videos on how to read it the right way. It is a tool that a lot of people think they know how to use/read but only really know 5% of what it can do. It will change your fishing experience tremendously.
I live in the middle of a desert with almost no access to fishing, but I love these videos! They remind me of my nice old neighbors
Hi mate , I've just started fishing and have just got a boat for myself and my young fella,I'm leaving as well, I love the honesty you show. Keep up the awesome vids. 👌
Mark you are so inspiring to me. Keep up the awesome videos mate😎
Great vid. I’ve done the same thing getting a bigger boat from the same mob to get me and the son out further for a bit of father son fishing but mine is a 495 Surtees. I’m no expert either but one tip for your live bait- grab yourself an aquarium net from the pet shop, makes grabbing those livies so much easier. Keep up the great videos.
Great to see a beginner fisho giving it a go. Another option would be to use the fish frames in crab pots. Also could you do a video of the finished kitchen and reno
Nice little Skippie/Striped Tuna.
Best lure for them is a small pink squid lure with a chrome or pearl head fished a ways back in the wash altho they will eat lures closer in. Rigged with a double hook its almost a certainty fir a hookup. Black/purple is another proven Skippie colour along with Green/Yellow. Little buggas will eat almost anything tho. Flip them upside down once onboard to stop them doing the "Skippie wriggle".
Thanks for the tips! Will do! Cheers :)
Hey Mark love all videos on both channels...but that is normal swell in mid North coast
Hello Paul how are you doing and how was your weekend 😊
Well done guys, what an awesome set up you have with your two channels, it’s funny because my wife loves your other channel and I watch your content on this one haha
And well done for showing the ups and downs of fishing.
I class myself as an all the gear no idea kind of fisho lol I do try my best and just enjoy the adventure
this was AMAZING! so jealous when you caught that tuna. looked amazing. keep it up guys xxx
Stoked you guys got this channel up and running! 😀
Russell Crowes fishing adventures, love it!
Fish, no fish, ya still went and had an adventure! Good on ya! be safe
Right on Braddah! Here in Hawai’i we call the skipjack tuna, Aku. I like to marinate the strips, and smoke them…you’ll find it is very good prepared that way. As others have mentioned, be sure to bleed them.
The chickens really like fish too, its actually good for them. Cats and dogs its also very good for their coats.
Hello John how are you doing and how was your weekend 😊
I’m really enjoying your videos, very real and very honest. I’ve heard many a trip go wrong on me as well. Well done
Thanks for taking us out on the water with you!
Glad to see some fishing content at last! Whatever you want to do I’ll watch it and I’m sure others will too. Great to see you having fun with the boy
Loving the content, a refreshing view on fishing, and looking forward to where your fishing ventures will take you.
No substitute for hours on the water when it comes to learning the art of fishing - and an art that’s never mastered!
Keep it up guys.
Congrats on the tuna Mark and good luck with your future fishing expeditions! Look forward to seeing you catch a few and combining the fishing with your ability to grow produce! I think there's plenty of RUclips clips on filleting/fishing to learn from. Teach a man to fish (and grow food) and he'll eat forever self sufficientlty! Bleeding the fish is a good tip. Cut it's neck between the gills while it's alive and stick it upside down in sand if fishing on beach or in a bucket of ice on the boat.
Another good video Mark!
Perhaps try the squid 🦑 lures when fishing at night. That's when squid may typically rise to the surface depths to feed, and be fed upon.
Great luck and safe waters!
I live in Minnesota, still some ice out on the main parts of the lakes (like very north MN) but it's pulling away from shore now. Just got my line wet Saturday night. I'm not an expert at filleting fish either! 11,000+ lakes with several hundred in a 25 mile radius around my home... And I did a very poor job of filleting those crappies! Love all your videos! We're starting up our gardens now.
weather forecasts have been very wrong a few times on me, and put me into some difficult situations. I’ve learned to check on two different “authorities” for weather reports before heading out.
You're living the dream. So pleased for you.
The Tuna was definitely a Skip Jack or Striped Tuna can be eaten but much better for snapper bait if salted mainly sold for cat food tins.
John West uses skipjack tuna. They are good eating in my opinion.
Looked like a solid day of fishing to me. Some days just go that way, just makes you appreciate the banner days all the more. Cheers Marcus of Fisholus, your other vid is fresh in my mind it appears lol
Tight lines, sore lips!! 🎣 🐟
When you see a bustup don't just charge through it. Sit back a bit & cast into it. Charging through just makes the school drop down .
I caught some bonito and cooked it up with a sweet and sour sauce which I quite enjoyed. Something different from the usual battered or fried fish
Good to see. Love your videos. Would love to see a pepper growing video one day on the other channel
Thank you! I am keen to give more attention to our pepper vine and get it to produce more peppercorns. Then I could dry them and make a great condiment, plus a video that's more interesting. Cheers :)
Keep a rod with a small metal slug handy for when you see a bust up. Get close enough where you can cast into them.
Hey mate, just a little tip.. don't use your rings to keep your lures hooked.. Use the frames. Keep the rings scratch free to minimise line damage
I love the excitement, glad to see the love for the sport. ❤❤
The bay and beyond is tough for people who haven't found their own spots and racked up many hours. But one big tip I've learnt is to have a go back in the passage before you call it a day. Those livies😢 would have been would have been munched. Plenty of quality Snapper and Jewies back in the passage.
Looks delicious! The boat is very nice. Enjoyed video😊
Skip jacks in the states we usually cook it chill it then make tuna fish sandwiches with it
Hello how are you doing and how was your weekend 😊
Unreal I been watching you on tictok and RUclips and didn’t even realise you were the same bloke😅 great content on both platforms mate
Good on the young buck for getting the tuna.
I can barely wait until I have a good sized farm and fishing!dive boat myself after I've been through court.
Have a ripper mate!
Thanks mate! All the best, cheers :)
fun day of boating, fishing, tasting ❤
It looks like a skipjack tuna to me. Certainly not an albacore
Cool vid! Skip jacks are good eating in my experience....I caught heaps of them back when i was a teenager with my dad who called them skip jacks and they tasted great.I was trying to explain to an experienced fisherman what they were and he finally realised what fish i meant . He calls them "dart".He had never heard of the term "skip jack" which trips me out cos he grew up around these parts.the tuna looks fine by me!
Great to see you getting out there, keep the fishing vids going!
Nice little skippy mark and James. One thing to think about is always running a lure when you are heading out. Run something heavy, far back, and you never know.
I love your video. Very real. You have earned my subscribtion.
I've learned so much from your gardening tutorials, there the best.....but man I with I wish I was there to show you how to cut and ahi....
The rest of the fish....bury in a raised garden bed!!!💪👍 Great vid Master!!!
I've tried preparing skipjack multiple ways, but smoked is the best. Even the bloodline is edible once smoked. My cat gets the scraps too, I don't worry about bones, they wouldn't get boneless cuts of sashimi in the wild 🙂
As an avid fishermen, the only way to get better at filleting fish is by doing it. I have torn a few fish up when I was first learning and over the years gotten really good.
That was awesome! Great job
Russell Crowe? You caught a skipjack tuna. Its a delicacy in Hawaii. We call them AKU. We eat it raw, dried and deep fry the center bone in a little bit of flour and cornstarch.
Looks similar to bonita, a fish we catch sometimes in Florida... most people use it for shark bait as it is very bloody. Watch your gardening channel some and didn't know you like to fish! 🤙🦀🌴
新鮮で美味しそうなお寿司ですね🍣
Im no expert Mark, but I think you are supposed to bleed a tuna as soon as you catch it so it does'nt taint the flesh. Great video, cant wait for more!
Hey CK we did bleed the Tuna its just that we didn't film out there in the rough of it all but thanks for the love and support mate!
Northern end of Curtain is the best I think . I lived on Moreton for years and only know of a couple of locals that fish it
The Simple Living Alaska people use their fish bits that didn't filet nicely to make fish patties. Maybe with processing the tuna as soon as you catch it the sushi will taste better and then the left overs could be fish patties?
For sashimi, best if you chillin the freeze for a while and then slice thin. They are Better bait with the skin on.
It would have tasted better if you batted, brained and bled it too, but is is a strong fishy fish, more so than yellowfin tuna.
Finally i waited for your video in stabicraft 1850
You are now a true fisherman! Lose your scale so can't weigh it. Then you just make something up! Keep it up and I look forward more post.
Great vid mate
Pretty sure it’s a Mackerel Tuna not quite as nice on the tooth. Apparently ok in curries etc. Good bait for bottom bouncing.
I’d suggest maybe slow trolling them livies at about 2-3 knots around the edge of drop offs. Look on your contour map and you’ll pick the lumps. And see the fish on the sounder. Spanish will hit it. It’s their season now.
On the tuna bust ups throw in a cast with a stick bait. You will find long tail tuna right now which are much nicer on the tooth and will be even a feistier catch.
Love your videos Mark!
Such a beautiful place we live. Lots of fishing here in the south East for sure.
With the squid trex I’m going to slow jig mine and see what happens.
I followed you months ago to learn from you about gardening, so there’s always someone to learn from and improve. You’re doing great!
Loving your videos.
Nice boat
Mark, next time try casting into the school of fish or troll around them mate. If you go through them they will scatter and dive in all directions.
Eric
Thanks for the advice Eric!
Might be beneficial if you have a polarised lens/filter for the camera. May allow to see the water without the shimmer or too much glare.
Just a suggestion.
come up the sunny coast mate, I'll show you some spots
Bonito!
Where did you buy the stainless steel fish cleaning table and the long size cutting board?? They look so good!!!!
Did you bleed the tuna before putting it on ice? The flesh looked pretty dark.
A amazing video 😂
Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Do you bleed your fish?
Nice
Plenty of great recipes for B grade fish species. Ceviche, tai fish cakes or fish curry's.
Mark was that the bribe island bridge ? I have friends who live in donnybrook ,and more there big boat at the bribe mariner which we spent the nite on in the estuary and I caught a large shovel nose shark , cheers , shaneo, nelson nz, 👍
Yes it was the Bribie bridge. I have also caught a nice Shovelnose shark myself in the passage in our early on adventures. Image is on our Instagram. Thanks for the comment Shane!
Hi Mark , I’ve got a question are you happy with your boat purchase, love the videos so much to learn with fishing but you’ll get there
Cheers from down south
I love sashimi but there are so many parasites in raw fish I really much prefer when it’s flash frozen - which pretty much all commercial sashimi is. I wonder if you can do that at home?
I've never heard of anyone in Australia freezing fish for sashimi, always best fresh that day I reckon 😉
I mean technically you are corrrect. you can freeze for 24 hours and then defrost but honestly i've never done it. Depending on the fish type would depend if i would eat it raw. Certain fish in WA mostly in the NW are nutorious for having parasites. Rankin Cod and cobia to name a few.
@@michaelellert4982 I’m in WA so 🤣
Bleed that Tuna the 2nd it hits the boat.
Delicious
Much like growing tomatoes for me.
Cant beat the taste of home grown products, but im damn sure it costs more than just buying the buggers.
Is it worth spending a gazillion dollars to grow a bit of food from home, or go and catch a few wild fish?
Yeah absolutely :D
Oh yea, nice tuna,,,,yum, sushi. Eat it with a bit of seaweed and sushi mayo, yum, yum! That squid thingy is to catch a shark LOL I haven't fished in a long time.
Not hating, I promise. There is some tasty meat in tuna cheeks I believe. That dinner you made looks awesome! I’m gonna make that sauce.
Pretty hard to beat even a bad day out on the boat
As a fellow sunny coast fisherman I feel ur pain with the weather mate👎
What weather apps r u using?
Got some close to Mooloolaba marks for when the weather is crap so if ur interested shoot me a msg an I’ll swap u for some garden advice 👍
Stay safe guys 🤙
Hey mark check out Outter Line Adventures they are very informative and fish up your way there, around Morton a lot
got any advice for a super beginner? as in never held a rod before?
Research goes a long way!
