- WATCH this VLOG series as we head on out to the southern ocean to fish for Southern Rock Lobster here in Tasmania.
Onboard the commercial fishing vessel Chieftain a 17.5m/57ft steel Tasmanian built vessel now 23 years old run by a Cummins NT855.
Thank you everyone for liking and subscribing. We are new to this UA-cam video stuff so its very rough, as you can expect things will get a lot smoother as this series progresses and into the future.
Apologies for Audio quality I am slowly getting use to using the microphones.
NOTE; Here is a current scenario:
If I want to leave the wharf, with current prices
Quota is $34 per kg I need 1500kg at minimum that's $51,000 out of pocket already.
i now need Fuel which is $2.02 per liter i need 1500L = $3000
i am at $54,000 still haven't left
i best get some Bait for the pots $4 per kg i need 1500kg= $6000
food for crew and i $800 -$1000 for up to 2 weeks
now i can leave the wharf, I'm only $61,000 out of pocket.
CRAYFISH PRICE on return of 2 weeks at sea $55 PER KG
$55x1500kg = $82,500 take out my expenses before i left the wharf, I've got $21,500 left Lets not forget I haven't paid insurance, maintenance of vessel, repairs, lost or broken fishing gear, Bank repayments and superannuation let alone a lot of other expenses.

China coming back on line, a game changer, that’s what makes the industry always definitely never a dull moment
@AlanMoncrieff yes we are excited.. but nothing happens untill the first lobster land.
Look like the international market will be back for you guys great news for the industry well deserved keep up the good work 😊
@@chriskemp1053 yes I will do an update talk about my views with it all soon :)
Thank you , love seeing some of the great east coast.
@@GarryCooper-uc5dy thank you for watching.
What you need is a rail so Lockie can slide the pot from station 1 to 2 without having to lift and carry the pot, just slide it! The crays might be thin on the ground, but boy there are some big fish around the islands!
@glennbrown1961 we do have a rail for him to slide. He just doesn't use it hahaha 😆
As always you lads didn't disappoint me. I wish i had these to watch more often... I was hanging for more of your content!
Such a great catch guys! Some big ones! Lockie you be careful! I am a retired nurse in America...does he have a hernia or a tortion? If so...he needs to get that surgery!!!
@juliemanarin4127 luckily after this trip he was booked into a surgeon's 😀
Good watching you and locky hope he is all right
Ye.hard going halling for nothing but there you go that looking a better haul well done troops 😅🎉
@@angusmackay967 was easily the best trip we have had regarding weather and beauty.. but the worst for numbers haha
fresh bait every shot is the key up here and were the seal are use leathjacket's for bait the seals wont touch them
@robertedson6357 yes every shot we add some fresh stuff. Was just a very slow trip.
Hopefully china back in before Xmas might not make the price rise to much but will increase demand 😊
I think the wind noise adds a different element to the video
@@stevenblack3092 it does indeed..sometimes it's just to loud haha
Capt. Why you throw the fish its nice to eat.?
@TeodyAlborte because we have very tight rules and regulations to insure a healthy fishery for the future.
