Thanks for watching mate! Na no burley with soft baiting. Just drift fishing. That was a really fun day out. Thanks again. Thomas.

Haha love this comment! Thanks heaps mate and glad you’re loving my abomination shorts. Cheers mate. Thomas

Thanks mate. Glad you enjoy this one. Yep they’re still my go to when things are a bit tough. Love them!

Awesome mate! Been out fishing yet? Thanks very much for your comment. Glad you’re enjoying the videos. Cheers, Thomas

I sure am mate. Gotta respect it and enjoy it while I can. Thanks for watching. Thomas

Not totally sure what that means sorry. Thanks for watching. Thomas.

Yeah good call. I always have plenty of drinking water on the boat and normally those protein balls for a quick hit of energy. Thanks for the ideas mate. Thomas.

Haha thanks for watching mate. Thomas

Thanks mate. So glad you’re enjoying the videos. Glad you find them laid back. That’s totally my style out there. Just loving the day out really! That’s cool you get out in the sounds. Mainly blue cod, snapper and kingy fishing? Spot X are just my special spots that are either marked on my charts or locked away in my head. Places I’ve had success in the past really. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Hi Craig. Thanks so much and I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos. I really would recommend it. So stable and very tough. They also have a very nice ride because they’re not as stiff as other boats. Really comfortable. Let me know if you need more info mate. Cheers, Thomas

@chasingacatch6017 Thanks for your reply. That's what attracts me to them is the fact how stable a safe they are for their size, very similar to the Australian made polycraft. Do you ever take anyone else out with you? Is there room to fish 2 or more people?

Max I’ve been out with is 3 adults and it’s been completely stable and while it’s not a massive amount of room it’s still been very comfortable. Strangely I also hit my top speed ever when I had 3 people onboard (27 knots).

Thanks mate! The boat is waiting for you 🙌🙌🙌

Hey mate. There is Wilton’s Marine right in Mangonui. I’ve not had a service done by them but have dealt with them and they were very helpful. I get my serving done in Kaitaia at Laurenson Marine. They’ve been very good also. I get it done there because they’re a Mercury dealer and if an official dealer does the work you get more warranty. Hope that helps. Cheers, Thomas

Thanks mate!

Thanks! They’re part of the bream family so do come in different colours. These are a type of red snapper so are always that colour. Thanks so much Jaci. Thomas

Haha that’s cool you were researching and watching. Hope it gave you a good insight into this style of fishing. Thanks heaps for watching and no need to apologise! We’re so thankful for your support. Thanks so much Jaci. Thomas

Thanks mate. It was a fun one and glad it panned out in the end. Thanks for watching. Thomas.

Thanks for watching mate! So glad you enjoyed this one. That’s amazing you saw your dad’s boat. Do you get out on it much? Neat you’ve got land up north. It’s so beautiful isn’t it. Please do yell out if you see us. Thanks so much for watching. Thomas

@chasingacatch6017 . Dad had to sell it due to his health. We can't wait to move home at some stage Australia has been good to us but it's not home . Love your Melbourne eats those oysters. I will definitely say hello if I bump into either of you maybe even at the beach box . Keep it up. I love both channels. Mat

Thanks Mat for watching the videos it means a lot. Fingers crossed you can get up North one day soon. Cheers bro. Thomas

Hey mate. You don’t set them like you would a J hook but you still need to give them a little bit. You need to account for slack line, stretch (I was fishing mono), and snapper have some very hard bits around their mouth. I wasn’t giving it too much when setting the hooks. Thanks for watching. Thomas

​@chasingacatch6017 thanks. On another note hows the boat for multiple people?

I’ve fished 3 with comfort and ease (all adults). Also managed my top speed ever when I was 3 up (all adults again) which I thought was interesting. I really like it. Let me know if you want any more info. Cheers, Thomas

​@chasingacatch6017 follow up, how much did it all cost, and how much did you tell your missus it cost

Haha 🤣 gladly she was very supportive. All up its worth about 42k (it’s fully kitted out) but I got it new for less than that because it was built as a demo model and had done 2 hours when I got it. Hope that helps. Thomas

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks heaps for watching! Thomas

Wow that’s a catch of a life time. Congratulations. They sure can be unpredictable wee things can’t they! Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Easy if you’re good at fishing 😜 hahaha Glad that day panned out in the end. Thanks for watching. Thomas

I always wet my hands first and then softly hold them. There is a lot of thought out there that this is better than using a towel. I talk about it often in my videos. Thanks for watching. Thomas.

Lots of info about towel vs hands here and how a towel isn’t good. Cheers. legasea.co.nz/2017/02/28/fishcare/

Sure was! Thanks for watching guys.

Thanks heaps Alister. So glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers, Thomas

I didn't even know you had this channel but now I will be going back over your vlogs and check it out Thomas.

Thanks mate! So glad you’re enjoying them. I really enjoy my fishing. Thomas

Great comment. I do have some tools on the boat and I really should have included that. Thanks heaps. Thomas

Haha love a splash of colour to keep things interesting. You know what’s funny as about your comment….my mum did give me those togs for Christmas 😂😂😂 Thanks for watching. Thomas.

@@chasingacatch6017 Classic, HaHa

Thanks mate. It was cool fishing that sallow. Thanks for watching. Thomas

Thanks for the kind comment Steve. So glad you’re enjoying the videos. Thanks for watching. Thomas.

So fun. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Thanks for watching mate. Thomas

Sure were. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Haha I’ll trade him for a crazy hat 😂🙌

Thanks bro!

Thanks mate. I’ll check it out. Cheers, Thomas

Yeah hard out. So yum to eat too! Thanks for watching. Thomas

Yeah good call. I did actually have a second rod on the boat but with getting g used to it all, running the cameras and the fish biting anyway I never ended up using it. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Thanks for watching mate! Cheers, Thomas

​@@keastymatthew2407😂😂😂😂

Yeah good idea re no weight. The tide was running hard but wasn’t quite as strong as I expected. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas

Thanks Don! Hope you enjoyed this one. Cheers, Thomas

Hey mate. Shape things near the boat is definitely something you have to think about. I always made sure to net fish and drop them directly in a fish bin. I’ve now got a different boat (you’ll see that in my latest videos) and it’s a lot my casual dealing with sharp and pointy things I must say. The TrueKit is amazing for the ease of storage and start up cost but does have some drawbacks when it comes to fishing that’s for sure. Hope that helps. Cheers, Thomas

That’s a great call and it’s something I’ve had on my to buy list for a few months now. Thanks for the reminder I needed! Cheers, Thomas

Thanks so much Jaci. I love that you’re enjoying these videos even though you’re not a fisher. That’s really cool. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas.

Thanks mate. That was a nice day out. Cheers, Thomas

Haha get amongst it! I do think some of the safety gear I mentioned is very needed to keep us boaters safe though and keep others safe by not having to come and save our butts. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas.

Good call and thanks for all the technical info. My engine does have an emergency pull start option which is nice for peace of mind also. Thanks for that and thanks for watching. Thomas

Thanks mate! It’s good to be back. Been trying to film a bit but weather and lack of fish has been making it hard. How are things going for you with the boat share? Thats a cool set up. Thanks for watching. Thomas

Thanks for watching mate.

Sure didn’t expect that as an addition 😂

That’s a great idea. My engine actually has a pull start kit built in just in case so I sort of cover that one off another way. Thanks heaps for the great addition. Thomas

Sure was! Like a pond out there. Thanks heaps for watching. Thomas
