Looks like a good crew ! You keep a tidy boat there Skip. 👍🏾
Cheers mate
@@tkoffshorefishing my ears pricked when you said Coffs. I'm at Bellingen now but worked on a few tuna boats when I first moved here some 20plus years ago.
Rogee mate, we are heading there after we get this line hauled
@@tkoffshorefishing Cool beans. So Friday/Saturday you'll be down here. Might see what the family have planned, be mad to catch up. What is name of your boat.
@@rodb1646 Derwent Venture
Great to see such a relaxed crew.
That is a high dollar boat, gear, baits and lastly CREW~~~ FIRST CLASS I CAN TELL. That boat is spotless.
cheers mate!
Well done, harder work than I've ever done as an electrician in the steelworks!
Thinking that your work is more rewarding.
First watched your video this morning (France)... came back to enjoy it once more. I’m quite sure that most would wish to join you all, especially those in the northern hémisphère but spring is on the way.... thankyou and waiting for the next trip out. Take care 😊
Thanks mate!
Awesome mate good fish and a wealth of knowledge as always. Its been incredible season here in the Hawke's bay NZ. Good work with your online charts / tutorials 2 been helping the local lads find the fish🤙
Thanks mate
I was laughing when you said you could smell lamb... i was thinking, " that sounds about right a Kiwi can sniff outta sheep 300clicks out to sea!" hope ya had ya gum boots on for that one mate. Chair bro.
😂 classic
Nice tuna DONT LEAVE flapping around on the deck be careful treat with care mate .. Get bigger mattress ? ...
thanks TK love your vids mate Whitianga NZ Here
Cheers mate, flying home to Whangamata on Sunday
@@tkoffshorefishing nice mate good time of the year to be home all the holiday makers gone kids are back at school have a great well deserved break mate
These videos are very cool. We fish for swordfish recreationally off the coast of South Florida in 1800feet of depth using a rod and Lindgren pitman reels.
Thanks mate, we are doing very well in New Zealand with daylight drops for swordfish but the unwritten rule in New Zealand is man up and use standard reels not electric.
@@tkoffshorefishing much respect mate...what depth are they in. quite a challenge for us to manual crank with 12lbs of lead heavy current and the depths but some brave ones do it!
350-600 meters is the target depth around the seamounts and canyons
Gotta say I love watching this shit as a keen fisho always interested in how the pros do things , so I subscribed keep filming
You’ve got a good narrator’s voice too might be the bloody kiwi accent
Just a note for you I fish out of Robe SA water temp this summer has been around 13-15 degrees c ,I think the fish are frozen
Cheers from down south
Cheers mate, appreciate the comments, gotta get down your way,. You have a very impressive Cray fleet down there.
Would love to come do a trip, but I'm probably past it a bit now. Used to work on game boat's
Very cool a long liner bath
Tk your boat is well run no drama on camera lots of laughts not like those boats in George’s bank
Worked sport fishing and commercial fishing boats off the pacific coast of California, had melanoma twice so wear your sun protection!
Definitely, a lot of the older fishermen I know are getting bits cut off them by the surgeon including myself after decades at sea. It takes its toll
@@tkoffshorefishing yep me too, be safe out there and thanks for your content
Your vessel looks way bigger at the dock, than it does offshore. Do you take on ice in port, or chill the catch with onboard equipment ? What kind of depth / contour / structure are you fishing in the Coral Sea ?
We have 2 ice makers onboard the vessel. When targeting pelagic species it's more about the surface meteorological conditions and where the bait is congregating.
Hope you said gday or at least a wave to to Damien and co on Brupeg. Not sure if they jave managed to get out of port proper yet.
is the pulley for the main line when you're retrieving spinning with the line or is it stuck?
Spinning, we grease the deck gear every 3 days
👋👋 howd ya go on the squid jigs can you do clip ov em on the jigs
Where does you're catch wind up ? Is it mainly exported ?
No,a lot of it actually goes local market which is great.
I'm an able-bodied seaman...Willing to learn......51yo.....Malaysian.....How to join your fishing vessel?....Any visa sponsorship available?
Hey TK just was wondering how much Fm is your floater lines ? In Hawaiii I been using 10 to 15 fm
We run 8 fathom rope's
@@tkoffshorefishing ok maybe I should try it and see how it works
Cool video
Cheers!
Boat immaculate crew the same unreal
Cheers mate
You are in the Coral Sea? The Coral Sea? My Grandfather was a NAVY divebomber and help sink a serious # of japanese ships there....
Yes been fishing up there for about 5 years now. The Pacific war effort has always interested me and I often look at the plotter and how close Guadalcanal and the sea battles in world war 2 were to Australia
He flew and fought at the Battle of the Coral Sea, Guadalcanla, Midway, Tualgi,,,,that I can remember. He was stationed abord the Yorktown which is on the bottom of the ocean around there I think.
So are the fishing stocks good? We fish in the GULF OF MEXICO (non commercial) and the RED SNAPPER catch is off the charts even after the oil spill.@@tkoffshorefishing
Wow,Yorktown was in the thick of it for sure. Very healthy fish stocks down here, we fish under strict quota's and look after the fishery.
who enforces the quota? Australia?@@tkoffshorefishing
@@dustyflair yes the Eastern Tuna and Billfish fishery is managed by the Australian Government
How much does a boat like that cost?
Just found and subd to ur channel an being a keen fisho I’m loving it mate I find it fascinating 👌👌
Could u in a future vid show the boys actually baiting an clipping the hook lines on etc ? An what happens when u get to the end of a shot as in is it the end of the line on the reel or does the boat stay attached and drift with the line??
Stay safe boys🤙
Absolutely mate, ill add it to the video list for the next trip
@@tkoffshorefishing thanks champ an b safe out there🤙
You have a quota or open slather ?
Fairly certain it's all quota. TK usually very vocal about how sustainable and certified the fishery is.
Strict quota's
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Good jub🛶🛶🛶⛵⛵
Looks like TK is reeling in those massive squid like he's fishing for compliments! 🦑🎣
What is the breaking strength of your mainline? How about your branch lines?
We don't go by breaking strain but diameter size. Mainline is 3.5mm mono and leaders are 1.8mm
