actually just saw it was pe2.5 👍

@@MrGavo1978 Pe 2.5 on the electric but I do bring the Ocea Jigger 2000 which is running pe1.7

@bradleyseeto nice - is manual winding a punish? Lol

noted

Thanks for the tip

or just pour hot water on it for a few seconds

Great suggestion thanks

Never tried John Dory but I’ve heard it’s better than Mirror Dory

@@bradleyseeto it is amazing, no fishy taste just perfect.

@@bradleyseetoGemfish are pretty tasty too. Got a nice catch mate.!

Oh the knife is sharpened before any filleting session. The issue is the fish is so damn slippery even on this Hasegawa cutting board.

It's ok can't really fault it's my first electric reel so I don't have anything else to reference. I think it could fit 600m or PE3 but you would have to pack it on really tight.

About 600m from memory on the LeoBritz. If you're deep dropping with 2kg weights I wouldn't use pe 2.5. For jigging pe2.5 is more than acceptable, I have also used pe 1.7 on the Ocea Jigger 2000 without issues paired with 600-700g jigs. The advantage of running such light line is the minimal resistance compared to thicker line and its able to maintain a more vertical position which prides better contact feel

Is this reel any good?

Thanks, I wouldn't say I have mastered it but slowly improving with practice. Recording this helps me remind myself what to do and what not to do.

Thanks for dropping by. There is a FB group but it's not very active, called "Deep Jigging Australia"

I have a lithium battery which comes with the motor, It's a Torqeedo Ultralight 403 electric motor which is equivalent to 1Hp. It doesn't state what pound thrust but the battery will last all day on water depending on how hard you push the motor. At half throttle I'm already at 75% top speed, so going full throttle will only get you a fraction more speed which isn't worth it.

Well done, what other fish did you manage to catch?

Thanks

North Harbour Sailing Club. But I've been told you can also do a beach launch at Forty Baskets Beach but haven't tried as my kayak is a bit too heavy to drag over sand.

@@bradleyseeto thanks. I once launch mine at Little Manly beach and there is a boat ramp there.

Thanks

We will never know if it survived or died from barotrauma, either way it was returned as quickly as possible.

yea that particular day was pretty sloppy. No I don't take anything as I got my sea legs when I was a kid fishing with my dad. Lots of fond memories throwing up over the side of the boat!

@@bradleyseeto 🤣 oh yes, I don't throw up anymore thankfully.... the rough stuff just makes me nauseous till I get back on land

Storm Adajo AJS631-1. It's just a boat slow jigging rod

I also have the boondox and loved it until the weight got too much and started to bulge underload. So I have retired it and now using the railblaza c-tug R. You probably don't want to hear this but I personally wouldn't use it, not unless you are really careful with how much weight is placed on it. I even created a larger custom backing plate to fit into the kayak to spread the load but even then it just couldn't handle it. So it was safer just to convert over to the c-tug r and not have any worries. Hobie really need to start innovating as the scupper carts were great at the time, now everyone carries a lot more gear and you'll see more scupper cracks in the forums. The horizontal bar on the ctug R does a great job in distributing the load. I have a torqeedo 403 electric motor which came with a large battery that will last all day if you don't go full throttle constantly. Expensive unit but I can't see myself fishing without it.

live yakka and herring/pilchards

I use these straps share.temu.com/dsD3jjXGyIA

ALR thanks, but whee do you hook the clip onto the rod

@@srduckyoce1084ahh yes I use a thin Velcro strap prob about 1cm wide and wrap a stainless steel key ring around the rod. I make sure the Velcro isn’t on too tight to allow it to slide up and down the rod butt. Also make sure you have atleast one wrap around the rod before securing the key ring to avoid scratches.

1/0 hooks

Unfortunately I won't be able to remember this! My guess less than 1m.

@@bradleyseeto allgood bro. Keen to give it a crack offshore that’s all haha

It's a Storm Adajo PE1 slow jigging rod. It's an old model which isn't made anymore.

Yes squid can be caught, but not consistently

Were did you launch from what area is that what pound line are you useing there

oh wow please atleast take me out to dinner first! :)

@bradleyseeto ok dinner first then your secret spots haha

Nice catch bro.. are the kings around in the winter?

Thanks but I wouldn't call myself good, just lucky sometimes. Firstly you need to find the fish on the sounder and they try various lures. For vertical jigging I'm just using a 150g lure and just pause every so often. They can be found sometimes hanging in shallow waters 12-15m so you don't need to jig that fast. If they don't take the vertical, I'll switch to slow jigs. When they are picky they'll only take live squid or cuttlefish.

Awesome. Do you come through the bridge sometimes or just stay on the up side ?😂

more wrecks to explore on the upside

Thanks

A few drops of water had made its way through the back of the HDS connector and corroded through some electronics. Sent it lowrance and they quoted me $903 for a new unit. I accepted the cost and when the new unit arrived the first thing I did was tighten the screws on all the back plugs. I now have a spare 3 in 1 transducer.

20lb double paternoster

I get them from Temu. Just replace the metal crimp and use 2 cable ties to secure it, then an optional step is to put heat shrink over it. They are strong I’ve accidentally towed my net in the water for about 5mins and the cord will spring back to its original shape. share.temu.com/nKE4jT36AIA

At the end of the video which no one probably saw, I sashimi the fish, so yes I eat this fish.

But down under we call it garfish 😂

One day mate but crabbing season is almost over! Hairtail is around the corner but not sure how productive it’ll be during the day in winter.

You’re welcome

In some systems crab traps aren’t allowed so they can only be line caught

@@bradleyseeto what system is this

@@enterthedragon5979 I need your promise not to tell anyone first! 😂 it’s ok no one reads the comments anyway, our secret will be safe for many years. Brisbane Water shhh 🤫

Circle hooks still have barbs on them

Thanks

Lol probably never

I think they are great, it's not a dry flesh when cooked but will require a bit of seasoning to bring out the flavour.

Taste like.... Wait for it.... Chicken. 🙌🏼💥

Haha Legen......Dary!

Agreed! It’s great to see more anglers now utilising these species

I think it might be James, hard to tell. Either way don’t tell Michael cause when this UA-cam channel finally monetises in 10 years time I might have to pay him for appearance fees. 😂

@@bradleyseeto Bahahaha No worries. Just take me with you next time you go for a hair tail. XD

You're welcome
