Thanks! I saw how the Bluefin were in danger of being extinct in Naples, Italy on TV years ago. Maybe I can help there when I retire however, you’re doing a great job in Australia! 😎🇺🇸
This isn't actually a documentary -- its just made to look like one. I'm not sure farming these fish is without new problems. Lets take a fish that has one of the largest migration patterns in the world and limit its existence to a tiny pen -- who would think anything could go wrong with that? Also, have there ever been any studies on the effect of catching a fish and then letting it go? I think a fish would be scared to eat after that.
Thank you for making this documentary about SBT, it really helped me understand better on how these fish live and how they're regulated before getting into the kitchen.
As a young lad from Port Lincoln going to sea with my father tuna fishing in the 70s and 80s then finally being allowed to get in the racks with the men poling to the introduction of Quota systems and per seine vessels to eventually watching it evolve into the tuna farming methods we see today .......... wow what a journey . I loved every moment of it except when the farming started and the buzz of chasing the catch ended as we knew it. Ultimate respect for this dynamic amazing fish . It’s great to see the numbers increasing again .
Such an important story to share. Well told Al. Beautifully filmed and a bit of good news that the world really needs to hear. There are valuable lessons to be learnt here if the fragile balance is to be maintained.
You guys are the right example for the whole world.!! Hard work,motivation, and now you see the results. It is possible.!!!! Greetings from the Dutch Caribbean.!
Al this is superb, well done to all involved. We've just had the best start to an SBT season anyone can remember off Fiordland in NZ. Fish in numbers not seen since the 70's
Awesome job in building an infrastructure that sustains the fishery, more of this needs to be done around the world. Really great video, should be a must see for everyone. Thanks.
This is so underrated. Videos like this should be shown to the world so they can see the dangers we put in to our world that Mother Nature shares with us. There must be a change so we can save our world
I so enjoyed this documentary! I'm currently writing a paper on the bluefin crisis and RFMO response, and this really helped clarify the issue in regards to the Southern bluefin as well as give some perspective past RFMO documents. Thank you for sharing this!
just phenomenal documentary, thank you for shedding the light on one of the most heroic creatures of the sea, you did amazing work learned so much thank you for that!
great docu, Al is a speaker from the heart, Greed and disrespect, I can tell you as a european aussie, this was the case , just ask/listen to the indigenous mob. take just a few, and biggest isnt always best, Aussies have turned 360 nowdays, the respect i see is truly heartening
Marvelous work on the footage and reporting. All people who eat SBT (or anything at all for that matter) must share the responsibility of managing our wonderfully amazing world of resources. Long live the Southern Bluefin Tuna!
Excellent documentary. Very informative and unbiased (as far as I can tell). The videography and scenery was top-notch and the overall production value was very high. Great job and thank you for all the hard work.
It's so easy to be negative about So. Bluefin, but you've put together a great doc that shows how well we as nations can really do great things if we really work together. A pleasure to watch, and I hope that US will adapt & use the Australian solutions to our own troubled fisheries. Cheers!
As much as I applaud the efforts taken to preserve the BFT , I worry that the o0verfishing of pilchards to feed the ranched fish is unsustainable and will lead to the collapse of both the pilchards stocks and tuna ranching. I have seen over fishing for fertilizer leading to the collapse of fish stocks and it's knock on consequences for the local community.
What a wake up. From greed to succeed. Everyone involved need a medal to take the plunge and turn a disaster around. I'm a fisherman and have been for quite a number of years but was never aware of the possible extinction of one of our stunning creatures. Top show Al.
Way to go Guys awesome job keep up the great work,each year there coming back 👍👍👍👍 Iam a commercial giant Atlantic blue fin tuna fisherman,we have strict quota 1 fish per boat a day ,works great
i'm in southern California, USA and the work that australia and new zealand has done and the pressure they have put on japan has caused a major impact on our fishery over here. We are having some of the best fishing ever here. I love these fish and am so grateful for the international efforts to save these fish. in the US we have not seen bluefin populations at this level in at least 100 years and what is really exciting for me is this year we got the full gamut of bluefin here from 20-400 lbs which to me means we are doing something right as we are getting more and more bluefin here. the only problem is i had to get all new gear the last 5 years as we used to be a 20-40 lbs fish fishery. but i have gotten to get multiple fish of a lifetime and memories with my favorite crews and make a few friends along the way
I live in Cape Town, South Africa. Post WWII and up to the 1970s we had a pod of huge Bluefins coming into False Bay inside Cape Point. There are photographic records of these specimens. The anglers of yesteryear also spoke of catching young Bluefins from the ledges of Rooikranz during the 70s, possibly earlier. I must reread the books written by Charles Horn to put dates etc. The inside of Cape Point and towards Smitswinkle Bay inside False Bay looks a bit like Hobart, Tasmania in your video. I'm hoping that we will get shoals of Bluefin coming back to False Bay during my lifetime. The big skiboats catch a few Southern Bluefin each year in the deep off Cape Point which they call Big Eye Tunas, I believe its the same species? Our catches here off Cape Point is predominantly Yellowfin and Longfin Tuna. Hoping that those Bluefins might resume their migrational path they had before the overfishing took place. Thank you for your inspirational and well documented video, gives me hope for the future. South African authorities need to come take a few pages out of your guys books, our resources are being plundered and Government seems oblivious to it all.
I worked a bit on the data side of fisheries 20 years ago, and the rhetoric from both harvesters and consumers was unreal. Sky high determined demand coupled with dogged determination to cash in on the harvest side. Resistance to monitoring was still widespread. It was no wonder things were looking bad. I was convinced such species were on the way out. Had nothing changed it would have been a sure thing. I shudder to think what it must have been like 40 years ago. I mean even a potato farmer will keep some spuds for next year's harvest. The whole thing affected me negatively and to this day I content myself with a few fishfingers a month and cut myself off from news about the matter. And I'm not extreme. I want to eat fish. It was just that bad and I wanted to salvage what dignity I could. I was in that business, because I knew it could work for everybody willing to work together, and I cared about that. I'm honestly happy to hear there's been buy in by stakeholders and improvement in at least that fishery since. If they hadn't nobody would have anything by this time.
Loved it when I was a kid I had the pleasure to go rock hopping with Alen Perry Jon shouthorn and a bunch of legions that keeper the south coast of Australia on the map loved every min of this show 10/10 CAR FISHING IS THE WAY TO GO FOR THE NEXT GENERATION TO EXPERIENCE WAT ITS ALL ABOUT
Quite a well-put-together effort. Two questions arise, though: how do you cope with the pirate fishermen, those who sail with impoverished or even enslaved crews and recognize neither laws nor borders? And secondly, what IS the spawning life cycle of the SBT? I would really have liked to see what research was being done, and to get at least an overview of the chain in Indonesian waters.
G'day Geoffrey I love to have added more about the life cycle but we just physically couldn’t fit it in. As for slave crews and pirates that’s all high seas stuff and we had no budget for this as this doco was largely self funded.
Outstanding documentary. I've chased bluefin in the Pacific near Southern California and Mexico. The Mexican pens were an affront until we were educated to the purpose and process of your great research and management. Hats off to you.
@ I do. I have a pantry full of sardines and herring. They're delicious and much better for the ecosystem than either wild caught or farm raised bluefin.
This is such a great documentary, thank you Al. I’d love to watch a kingfish documentary next, how commercial fishing decimated them and are now starting to recover. We are tagging 1m kings at the harbour this season consistently, I’ve never seen them this healthy in my 5 years of fishing the harbour
@@almcglashan the charter boys wouldn’t like a doco on the kings around the harbour 😅. It’s probably for the best for everyone to not film a doco on kings while they’re still recovering anyway. Would love to fish with you one day mate, you inspire lots of us fishos!
@@almcglashan agreed mate. They get pillaged along our coasts. I think people forget that we share the same kingfish stocks with other states yet rules are different down south and north. I wonder if there’s a way we can make it all regulated as one
Great doco Al! I’m impressed that you didn’t mention the “bloody greenies” even once! Good to see Coops making a cameo appearance at the end! Keep up the good work mate
I fuckin' love this documentary Al', bloody big thanks mateI know the science, I know the fishery, I know the places and I know the truth of the story the way you represented it. I know the Merimbula and Batman's Bay Offshore Pelagic Fishing Clubs and rarely in articles in fishing magazines over the past 50 years. You have congruence in every memory I have, recreational fishoes, changed their target species and I remember them disappearing and the confusion, mates sold their boats. That was 30 years ago. 9 years ago I watched the boys down at Port Fairy build a Specialist Recreational Southern Bluefin Tuna Commercial fishing Experiencial Adventure Tourist Fishing boat to take a dozen tourists out at once and for everyone to catch a Southern Bluefin Tuna on a Seven Day at sea experiencial adventure. Cool hay! Most excellent doco Bro'.🙏💪🙌🐟🐟🐟🙌💪🙏
What a fantastic story 👍 And told so beautifully, Al 👍👍 Having caught (and released) my first ever SBT just last week, I’m absolutely stoked to have the opportunity to go out and enjoy these rockets of the ocean 😁. And my god 😳 How stunning was that spot you fished in Tassie? 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Well done on the doco. Good news for the sbt fishery. But what about the yellowfin tuna in NSW the golden days of the 80s big tuna off eden and bermagui. Is there any hope they will rebound
Just stop eating/producing/catching everything all year round let’s go back to the times where we eat produce if it is in season
4 года назад+2
Finally! Everyone else is humping their leg. This does not work. Farming animals is the most unregulated industry. Yeah whatever if anyone disagrees. have ever seen any of these operations for real? Salt water animal farming is no different. The expense is high
This was great, as a full time commercial fisherman in Hawaii, Good Fish Management is so important.. Personally i feel the worst thing that can happen to any fish stocks is Net fishing. Fishing Hooks will damage a fishery but will Never wipe it out, Net fishing will in a Very short period of time.. More People need to Practice catch and release..
good job on the doco mate. I still remember holding up the fillet you were cutting in eagle hawk. that first barrel when Mat Boulton was with Richard and me (bandit) on pure gold. Trevor Hogan was on your 600r and someone ran over the first fish. haha good old times. I still have that photo of the fillet somewhere.
@@almcglashan yep was pretty good. would love to have a fish with you one day. just putt a haines cc together just a little 445 but it's been off the shelf. nothing like your new rig though. anyway keep doing what you're doing it's very entertaining especially in lockdowns when we cant get out. cheers
I truly love what you are doing I think this is the best thing that anybody could ever do it should not be just done with one specie of fish I should be done with all even whales to grow baby whales at least whatever population is still around enjoy your program when I was younger I wanted to do this with perch and pickerel oh because I could not read that well I couldn't find out much about it I'm pretty much stuck with all my life until I turned 50 years old of age I decided to go back to school to learn and I've come a long ways in 10 years I just want to say thank you and God bless you all
What a success story, I hope more species recover like this. I think people are finally starting to realize you can just rape the Oceans year after year with no repercussions
Nice video mate..How cool is it going to be when those gps data tags get cheap and you can tag and watch your fish on the net in real time for yrs to come, now, that would increase catch and release to the point where any fish you catch will be tagged already...lol..
Absolutely stunning documentary, glad I found this!
thanks mate appreciate it
Thanks! I saw how the Bluefin were in danger of being extinct in Naples, Italy on TV years ago. Maybe I can help there when I retire however, you’re doing a great job in Australia! 😎🇺🇸

Very well done docu !
Great documentary. It would be great if people ate less bluefin and ate more of the fish we feed to the bluefin.
There plenty of other fish to eat in the sea
Ok....you do that

certainly is!
Please do one on the kingfish traps and the YFT off the peak, would love to know more about if we can bring it back to what it once was.
Keen as if we can get someone to fund it!
Love this thank you
Getting excited for the SBT run, so watching this again!
me too hanging to see them arrive!
Fish gets tagged with a $6k tag. 2 weeks later it eats the wrong sardine and becomes sashimi for some wild mate and his lads
Where did that happen?
@@almcglashan it didn't, i was just saying with their ravenous nature it would be comedic but unfortunate if one got caught soon after being tagged.
What a success story, I hope more species recover like this. I think people are finally starting to realize you can just rape the Oceans year after year with no repercussions

Love it from a fellow fisherman’s point of view instead of some vegan telling me to stop fishing because it’s cruel🤣 tell that to a shark.
I couldn’t agree more but I am biased!!
Excellent work... ❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
A fantastic story
Thanks mate
Awesome video 👏
thanks
Nice video mate..How cool is it going to be when those gps data tags get cheap and you can tag and watch your fish on the net in real time for yrs to come, now, that would increase catch and release to the point where any fish you catch will be tagged already...lol..
I am hanging for technology to catch up!
very very informative thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Eye opening information. Are there any ways to help our Ocean flurish again leave them untouch for sometime.
yeah its not all doom and gloom
