Hey John, WTH I've never heard or seen of one of those but that could be a game changer! It's so awkward to reel in on the side of the boat to begin with, having the dinghy in the way make it a pain to do anything off the Stern. But wow the flying Gaff is the way to go! Cheers 🍻
Boy Howdy! Ya'll had a hell of a time! It all ways Hurts to lose such a Great fish. But that's fishing. Thank You so much for taking us along on your journey. Who knows maybe we will see 👀 your sails ⛵️ on the Horizon someday. So until next time, Aloha from the Big Island of Hawaii! Aloha and cheers 🍻
@@sailinghonutime Remember, The Best Drinks 🍸 are on the Big Island 🏝 as you watch the Sun Set at the Royal Kona resort. Or on our lanai in Ocean View Hawaii. Lol
You know when you catch a fish you need to have the line running through the eyes the right way and you can turn the ratchet off so you don’t wreck your reel!
We're amatures.. haha we do love our smaller fish! We're learning and appreciate all the comments. Everytime we fail at something we research it and do better next time. Cheers 🍻
Game changer. The hardtop was already on Honu when we bought him. We had a canvas guy create the rest of the enclosure. We are hoping to extend the hardtop all the way to the back. Future plans.
😂😂😂 I gotta say I love you guys fishing style 1 rod and 3 hands 😲 and then he gotta way 😰. That's fishing but Josh's shoulders must be really hurting and then you get a following sea and no wind, not a great way to spend the night, in the morning shots I could see that lazy swell behind you and I know from sailing central NZ waters that just sux the energy out of you. So hopefully after some shut eye you'll be feeling better and ready to explore new beaches and clear waters 👍👍😋😋🇳🇿
Yeah it's funny we've never really invested mich in our gear, and with Josh's shoulders in the shape they are in.. we really made this Mission Impossible haha. Cheers John!
10-4 ans Roger that. We've since extended the gaff from 3.5ft to 6ft that has helped, haveing to lean over a railing to reach down 3.5 ft with two recently dislocated shoulders made it 100 percent, the worst gaff job ever, not that any previous ones looked much better.. haha. But we are slowly building our fishing garage to land the lunkers. Cheers.
OMG looked like an awesome catch 🎣
It really was. So sad he got away.
We love your sailing and fishing adventures! You’re both inspirational for us! Keep the videos coming please. 😁💜
Thank you! Will do! 🩵⛵️🤘
Learning from your mistakes is the best thing, net necessary and gaffing lessons! You’re fun people, I enjoy your videos
Thank you, hey everytime we do anything we always do it better the next round. Cheers 🍻
That game chair doesn't seem so silly now lol. Look into getting a flying gaff. Take care, stay safe..

@@sailinghonutime maybe look into a belt with a rod bucket for those bigger fish. It will save your back and give better leverage.

Yeah, it's a learning curve.. haha. Beat it into submission! Cheers 🍻
I like that bimini hard top and soft top extension. Any videos on that? Who made it for you guys? Thanks!

I know by the sound of her voice, "YOU BETTER GET A NET."
Right!
Why don’t you have a net ?
RIGHT🤷♀️
Wow. I’ve never seen anyone fish like that.
It was a bit of a cluster .... He was way too big for our reel.
@@sailinghonutime right. Way to big 👍🏽😉
@tracyraley4003 but all in all, it was a ton of fun!
@@sailinghonutime watching your videos is a lot of fun also. Keep em coming.
@@sailinghonutime I look forward to your videos every month or so.
👍
Thank you!
Worst gaff job ever.............get a net as backup !!! Tip of the day !!!!
