    Great to see underwater footage of the grounds, the fish behaviour and the sharks. Videos like these speak much louder than words. Thanks for posting.

    Love the underwater drone footage with the sounder shots. Comparing those pictures to the huge shows on my sounder sometimes, makes you wonder how many fish are really down there. Well done.

    @kizzjd9578 10 місяців тому

    Interesting video mate, as a rec fisho/spearo, is the handline quicker than a high speed overhead reel or those deep drop electric reels ive seen commercial guys use?

    • @richardgilmore36
      @richardgilmore36  10 місяців тому +1

      I have tried electric reels a few times over the years. I find the handling much more efficient in hooking fish and landing big fish. The bigger fish with electrics tend to tear off more. We deal with a lot of sharks and I find most of the time with the hand line it will win, but like everything when a shark is hungry there is no chance on winning.

    If you want a part time deckie..... I love killing fish by hand line.....it brings you in contact with your prey..... using old bike tubes as finger stalls......damn I miss that... anyway tight lines and don't piss the lady boss off.

    There would not be so many sharks, if it was not such a healthy thriving ecosystem.

    That was an absolute quality video guys. You’d have to be proud of that one. Hope you keep producing them. This channel will be huge in twelve months. Reach out if you ever need two more camera crew 😁🎣 @OBM1770 p.s. just pulled the tube out of the missus bike. 😂

      Cheers. I hope her bike tube is thorn proof. 🙏🏻 I do plenty of solo sessions so anything is possible.
