No such thing as good or bad when it’s a family run operation and you guys are a amazing team/family stay safe my friends and prayers for a great and productive season
I absolutely love your videos. The longline fishing videos are my favorite. I have to give the whole family kudos, you guys always remain calm and collected. Not a single cross word when the tub of baited hooks got dumped , that was truly inspiring. As someone who works in a family business I truly respect the heck out of that! Keep up the great work!!!
Aw thanks, scott. We sure appreciate the kind words. Yep there’s a time and place for everything, screaming over every tiny thing isn’t worth it. Best to save that for a case of imminent danger or something bad is about to go down.
Never get tired watching you guys fishing ..always 10/10 videos.
Stay safe guys.
Sorry unable to text I'm in the UK
Did you get a message saying to txt a number, I so same here. The country code was wrong and I'm 100% sure it's a scam
It is, thank you bruce. Thanks for tuning in gazellis, good to see you!
@@tropicrows Many thanks Gary
I'm never ready for your fishing videos to be over! Can't wait for the next one! Stay safe out there!
Thank you thank you, thank you for your consciousness of our environment. That's all I have to say.
Matt sporting a Griz shirt?!! Makes the channel even better!
Great to see the family working together. Hope you have a profitable season!
Thank you for acknowledging our Coast Guard folks! People that work and play on the waters of Alaska need to know about the "Coasties"!
Yay!!! I am so excited to watch this video you just uploaded!!
Good stuff as always, fellas. Glad to see the younger gen out there.
Be safe and keep rolling EIS team!! 👍👍
Been watching your videos for awhile and really enjoyed all of them. Thank you! 👍👍
Hi I'm from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 and I really love your fishing. Keep uploading latest videos of your trip so I can watch.
Another great adventure from a great team and family! We look forward to every episode!
So glad you're all out there. Missed these episodes
Good to hear/see the whole family out today, have a good day fishing guys an gal.
It's nice to see the whole family together! Great video guys!!
Thank you for watching, Elb!
So great to see the whole family again on board, fishing good. I so love you guys doing that not the easiest business of fishing. I wish you catch the best catches ever. 👍👍👍
Excellent video thanks for sharing, the scenery is fantastic.👏👍👍
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Nobody screaming or hollering love it.!! I wanna go😭😭😭
Excellent video. Looking forward to the next one. We're sure enjoying that last box of rockfish you sent!
Great vlog again. Honestly you guys are awesome. A family day out fishing. Love seeing little brother smashing his part of the job. Thanks for sharing a small part of your life with us. It’s amazing to see how people live in Alaska. Some nice fish as well. Do octopus taste nice. I’ve never tried them but people who eat them seem to love them like in Italy they love octopus.❤️ 💕 💗
We tried it once but it was like chewing bubblegum, since we cooked it wrong lol. The taste was fantastic though! We’ll have to try it again another time. Thanks for the comment Celtic!
@@EISAlaska RUclips has some good octopus recipes. Almost every recipe starts with boiling the heck out of it, then cutting it up and cooking the seasoning into it, however you want to try. Do you just use them as bait? Or are there markets?
A hard workin family living the life. I envy you guys!
Nice looking fish for a shake down run! Thanks for sharing!
Great video guys thank you
You guy's are Solid....
I could watch your videos all day thanks
Thanks Lori. Have a safe and happy 4th.
Looks like a fun gig
Looking like you are having a good start to your halibut season! Nice fish brought on board with decent weather as well. Much Halibut Success!! -Bob...
Every time I hear the Fish Tale engine I have to smile; it sounds soooo good!
Hi folks have a great holiday weekend. As always good to see ya wishing calm seas and fair winds. As always good luck and God Bless.
Watching your video from Kuwait .
Great episode!! Catch those halibut EIS team!! Yep Coast Guard is awesome!! 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video. Glad you had a successful start to halibut fishing your son t reminds me of my youngest son great to see you got your family working on a great day at sea be safe and best regards from Maine
You caught a Octopus. How neat. A little foggy. Enjoyed your video. Really good to see everyone. Hope you have a great haul.
Was born in Kodiak I love the videos makes me homesick
I recently had some surgery and started watching some videos on RUclips. I ran across y’alls channel and binge watched all your videos since. I got excited when I saw the notification of your new video . I enjoy watching you guys fish as a family. I pray you guys have a great successful season. Happy 4th of July..
Great to see another fishery and some of the conditions. As a skipper/ captain, you appear to have the right knowledge and experience to use, possibly handed down through the years. The crewmembers know the ropes. look forward to watching a few more of your videos cheers from Northern Australia
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for joining us Fishpest!
Hum!! mouth watering cod ~~~~
I've never had Halibut before. I think I'll give it a try.
watching y'alls channel grow is amazing ! I think y'all should have a short made that says ... I do this for the " halibut " .. I'm sure y'all get it..
keep kicking tail !
love from Nashville'TN
Geweldige vissers zwaar beroep mooie natuur geweldig top
I want to go so bad
Excellent job guys see you on the next one
Sash weights are becoming a rarity out here but used them for years just to anchor a small boat with my Uncle Len. Best memories fishin in his boat
Nice! Yep they work great for weighing down the line along edges.
Whooohooo.!!!👊🏻💪🏻
Every time I watch this video T dumps the bait lol
Nice job,
tropical plunder delicious fish.. im subscriber and watching from philippines...
Matt said something about finding your gear and I had a flash of an idea. Buoy's with a little transponders broadcasting a code specific to you, kinda like IFF in the aircraft world, at either the head or tail end of the set. You home in on the buoy beeping your code and start hauling. Something like that shouldn't be terribly expensive and save wearying your eyes searching for buoy floating in big ocean.😀
octopus ! yum !
I enjoy watching how you guys work as a team. Keep up the videos. I deleted my first comment cos you answered my question not 5 minutes latter lol.
Woohoo!! It's "guess what's on the next hook" time :) Thanks for the fun!! Have a safe and happy 4th of July 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
No , white side up they fall asleep and quit kicking around. It's kind of like puppies when you pick them up by the scruff of the neck but different. Works on crabs too. Catch a shark.... turn upside down. They quit and give up. Puts them to sleep in a minute. I wanna try it with a great white or a thresher. I know it will work... I don't have a boat anymore . Wish list of dumb things to do .
That intro music reminds me of the Napoleon Dynamite movie lol.
Dream career to have with family.
I'm not sure if anybody's ever asked you this question but if you catch more than you anticipated more than you can handle do you sell to the other markets or on dock or do you just store them and do you have a storage area big enough to hold a lot more than you anticipate catching
Another great video. Thank you producing these. Beats amy discovery Channel show ever made. Curious to How often to you get good catches from night time sets?
We actually rarely do night sets, and when we do it’s in the mud where the sand fleas aren’t so bad. Catches are typically smaller at night it seems like.
I've never had halibut, what does it taste like I'm curious?? I think I'll try to find the freshest l can and locate how to cook it on u-tube. Great haul folks, here's wish you a boat load every time!!
The skipper deserves some glasses that fits his need😂
Thanks for another great video.
How long do you like to let your sets soak?
Seven hour soak on the first set Paul. Next sets get a little longer as it takes longer to pull than set out. Five hours in this area is usually enough time as little bait comes back and the gear seems to fish fast here.
Do you guys use smaller weights in the middle to keep your ground line closer to bottom that’s what we use along with anchors on both ends
thx
Great video guys with awesome explanations. Just wondering if you have had anyone set over your long line and how do you deal with crossed lines?
It happens occasionally Brad. We have a short piece of line with a loop of chain spliced to it that we pass around our longline, "choking it", and secure to our vessel. Then we can cut our line and allow the crossed over one to go back down. A quick love knot joins the two ends back together and we start hauling again.
@@EISAlaska I knew that it would be something simple that I of course had not thought of having never been in a situation like that. Thanks for the info and keep your videos coming. Enjoy every time.
Thanks again for sharing a great fishing day and the info you share. I noticed the Jigging rigs are still on deck. Were you jigging while you were out on this trip or have plans to? Looking forward to some halibut.
Hi Douglas. We only fished halibut for one day and then took the reel back off. We left the jiggers on the port side, as they are out the way, and we will resume jigging for rockfish.
Looks like a good day on the water, with some nice looking halibut jumping on board for the ride. They look to be good sized fish, but not barn doors. You've mentioned before that these are decent size halibut to be hauling in. Looking at some of the "once in a lifetime halibut fishing trip" videos, they need 3-4 people to get the darn fish on deck. Then the fish thrash around with so much power that people can get hurt if they're unlucky or just happen to be in the wrong place. A clout like that would probably take some of the fun out of a day, if nothing more serious. Then there are the people who show up from far away and go out on a paddle board with a kids' spin-casting rig from Wal Mart. "Of course It'll be no worry to haul in a 200 pound (or bigger) halibut on a 10-pound line and riding a styrofoam surfboard." Sigh. (We get them too - "Oooh, that bear/moose/elk is soooo cute. . etc.").
It's a pleasure to watch you all working together, getting the line sets in without a lot of drama or wasted motion. Hope your season goes on as it's started - good fishing and nice days. Cheers from northern Alberta.
What is your personal best run of legal halibut on continuous hooks? And how many legal halibut on the whole longline ? Just curious...
Question: Do you ever have to sharpen your hooks? If one of your "skates" is 600' you might have 50-60 hooks per skate (guessing).....so, hook sharpening could be a significant chore.
Thanks, as always for the interesting video. All the best this season.
Thank you to provide people with a healthy food🌟🌟😊😊🎆🎆 and your fishing busines the achievement of your goals🌟🌟👏👏plus your independence😊😊 "Happy 4th of July" to the citizens of the USA😊😊👏👏
Nice to see the EIS Family fishing again. Is there a part II to this video? Hope it was a successful trip. God bless.
Thanks for watching and yep theres a part 2 coming soon.
@@EISAlaska Glad to hear that. Can't wait to see it.
do you guys train for rope entanglement......or hook catch into hand or leg...?
Hey guys, another great video! It's so great to see the boys working together with dad. What an awesome family! How long does the long line last?
Hi Kerry. If you are asking about the length of the season, halibut fishing opens early March and runs into November. Not sure the exact date it closes this year. We fish on an Individual Fishing Quota system, so we have a set amount of halibut we can harvest each year.
@@EISAlaska Good morning, no I was asking how long the rope you guys use on the big reel lasts. Sorry for the confusion.
Sorry, I missed that. The line is very durable and will last well over ten years if fished on softer bottom. Rocky, hard bottom can chafe the line and wear it out faster, but should still last quite awhile, at least 5-6 years. It also depends on how much gear you fish.
That's longer than I thought it would. Thanks for the response. I also enjoy the boat retrofit videos. Keep up the good work, and good fishing!
As quick and simple as your snaps go onto your long line what keeps them in place so they don’t travel up and down?
The tension of the snap keeps them in place on the line. They will slide occasionally, mostly when we get snagged in the rocks and they slide along and pile up until we pull free.
Hi guys,
How long do let your strings soak for?
video is big bro make it 20m
Wearing the orange makes it look like he is from the jail work program. . . . hahahaha
When you pull the gear do you pull it from the starting end, so the soak time is balanced out over the set depending how long it takes to pull the gear?
No, we try to pull from the end that will allow us to drift down the gear, with the tide and/or wind. Soak time gets longer for the last sets in the water and as long as little or no bait comes back a longer soak does not matter. If we start pulling and lots of bait is untouched, we will put the anchor back on and drop it back down to allow for more soak time.
Could you elaborate on what you mean by 'tub' when you say "We laid out a 6 tub set"? How many hooks approx?
When you go to town, where do you hang out?
I need to come up there I wanna find a nice mermaid like you found
How much of the catch do you to take home to your freezer?
You know what it means when you spill the baited bucket don't you ?
It means you have to pick it up!
Ha Ha Ha your funnier than old people having sex and their teeth fall out. 🤣
I noticed you said you hoped for a 1000 pounds...How many tons are your tags good for? IN nova scotia its hard to find high quota tags...1000 pounds of halibut would be your whole season lol...
something I've wondered for a long time. What the age difference between the boys?
Matt I just got a notice about being selected for something not sure if it’s a scam running
It's a scam John. We do giveaways occasionally, but they are always put out as a video. We never contact folks directly through the comment section. Thanks for the heads up!
@@EISAlaska ty I wanted to be sure plus it lets you know it’s out there have a great 4th you and your family
what are you going to do with the octopus
.........what brand of deck knives do you use ?
Dexter Russel. 6" Butcher knife.
Are the octopuses valuable?
Where you but the clip that attach o
U took to long for me , I had to go ahead of u !
How do u only have 80k subs
I propose a new game "Hangry, Hangry Halibut"...it's a lot like "Hungry, Hungry Hippos" but with a lot more flopping and blood.
Hey guys, did I read that daddy captain and mommy captain have a daughter .)
Hi Billy, Yep we have two sons and one daughter😃🌸
Is the knife mandatory to wear when long lining
Thanks John! Its not required or anything, but its definitely a good idea to wear one.
@@EISAlaska Oo ok just as long your safe I’m ok stay safe my friends

If all else you have a phone GPS.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🐟🐙🎣🇧🇷
That wasn't clever was it !!!
There appears to be a scam message being sent to some of us, looks like it's from you guys. Have you seen it
We heard about that Bruce. Please ignore it, its definitely not us.
