That’s parenting done right mate. My daughter was about her age when she tried fresh oysters for the first time. She’s almost 22 now and the first person to grab a rock and smash oysters off the rocks whenever she can. A million thumbs up to you mate
So wholesome getting Billy on for the later part of the ep mate you're a wonderful father keep up the great work legend can't wait to see you help her get her first Mackie one day!
Great parenting there legend! Taking my 2 girls for their first beach tailor session this school holidays - cant wait to see their faces when a greenback starts working their light setups.
Another excellent fishing adventure Sammy . Love your little one eating the fish and helping out . Thanks for taking us along again . Have a good day .
Great stuff Sammy!! Some very desirable species in the mix here, and plenty of fun fishing! I had a laugh when your daughter asked "Why are you doing that voice Dad?" as you weighed it haha, gold!
I still find it funny that in Queensland limit of 1 per person, or Max 2 per boat, but when the same fish migrate south into NSW, they're no longer endangered and the bag limit jumps to 5 per person. 🤔
Hey Sammy in the next video could you please run through how you rig up your baits for trawling I would love to know how to do it so I can chase big pelagics the same way
Great ep Sammy. The bag limit is pretty harsh, but that 18kg fish yields well. Nice to see your little one too, watch em tho mate, they are grown before you know it 👍
No leashes!!!! Sammy you’re playing with fire lol! Love your stuff thanks for the videos 🎉 I fish alone a lot, I also wear an inflatable PFD and I wear a PLB also.
What a classic little boy. My gradson Stirling is a similar quality of a boy. Cute and cheekiy. Well done. With good parenting hopefully he won't ever feel the need for machetes and knives in his life as sadly many young boys seem to these days.
I’m glad your daughter is low key impressed with that giant like my daughter low key impressed with my fish. May I suggest the hulk hogan style intro/ lead into the fish reveal. You will get the wow face
Well in all fairness, fish do lose weight after a night of being stored. I don't think it would be a loss of 1.5Kg in this case. Doesn't matter because that is still a lot of high quality mackerel. Good on you for introducing your daughter to proper food. I can relate as I was raised on a mixed operation farm and also into a family who hunts, fishes, and forages. We produced, hunted, and collected over 95% of what we ate/eat.
Hi Sammy, great contend bud. following you from South Africa. Mackrel seem to be my nemesis, do you have a video sharing the rig you use they seem to swim much better then the way we do it in SA. If you dont mind giving some pointers.
Hey mate! Thanks for tuning in! I usually let the baits choose the speed, they all swim at different speeds depending on how they are rigged, so I just check them boat side and keep at that speed 👍
@SammyHitzkeFishing cheers mate very helpful havnt done any trolling before but would like to give it ago so much appreciated for you to reply back. Keep the vids coming 🤙
Hey Sammy cool video, mate you probably don’t have time for small talk, if however, if you get a chance is there any chance you know of any more or some land based luderick spots on the goldcoast please , 🎣
Maybe it’s just by a different name here to down under. We have what we call King Mackerel’s. Our Spanish Mackerels are smaller. Usually 3-5 pounds. Are they different? Or do the Spanish grow towards 50 pounds or more? I’m curious.
Bit late to the party but I live relatively close by, and have always been taught you can’t eat the big fish like Spanish coz of ciguatera, is there a secret I’m missing or was the old boy being a bit paranoid??
That’s parenting done right mate. My daughter was about her age when she tried fresh oysters for the first time. She’s almost 22 now and the first person to grab a rock and smash oysters off the rocks whenever she can. A million thumbs up to you mate
Sammy, it’s so great you get the little one involved and open up their world to the amazing flavors there is on offer.
Kudos ✊
Mate, loved this ep, Billie is a complete champ and so nice to see a kid embrace tastes and textures that too many kids are deprived of. Onya.
Great to see the Phantom's passion and legacy is safe 2 generations on. Well done Dad.
Warms my heart too!
Cracking video sammy, but I must admit the best part was the father/daughter interacting. Parenting done right.
So wholesome getting Billy on for the later part of the ep mate you're a wonderful father keep up the great work legend can't wait to see you help her get her first Mackie one day!
Me
Your best videos are in your own boat on your own fishing local. Absolutely sensational and love this. Great vid.
Billi is too cute! Awesome video again cheers sammy!
“Big boy or girl, 1 of the 2”. Exactly mate, 1 of the 2! Lolz 😂
Na mate...hundreds now 😆
Haha, great to see the third generation of Hitzke's enjoying their sashimi!
Nice video too 👌
Love the multi day commitment mate!
Bloomin nice Fish mate the one after the one who got away well done
Yes I did enjoy it Sammy. One of your best I reckon. Amazed that your daughter is into sashimi. Mature tastes for someone her age. Good one mate.
Great fish, good screamers, and a staple way for eating all the makeral I catch these days!
Great parenting there legend! Taking my 2 girls for their first beach tailor session this school holidays - cant wait to see their faces when a greenback starts working their light setups.
Another excellent fishing adventure Sammy . Love your little one eating the fish and helping out . Thanks for taking us along again . Have a good day .
Sammy, nice to see you are back to your old net antics.....fun video, thanks!
Great stuff Sammy!! Some very desirable species in the mix here, and plenty of fun fishing! I had a laugh when your daughter asked "Why are you doing that voice Dad?" as you weighed it haha, gold!
So wholesome at the end with your daughter mate- so epic!
Another awesome Sammy Hitzke Fishing Show with a very cute ending. 👍
that ending was so cute, gotta take her out on the boat mate she will love it
31:28 awesome catch man!
Wow, what an amazing way to fish, friends,
Very cool video, friend, thanks for sharing your experience,
Keep the spirit alive, my friend,,,👍
Great fish mate. Well done. I’ve been loving a bit of pickled ginger with my sashimi.
Big winter Spanish😮
Fishing content doesn't get any better IMO.
EPIC Sammy!
I still find it funny that in Queensland limit of 1 per person, or Max 2 per boat, but when the same fish migrate south into NSW, they're no longer endangered and the bag limit jumps to 5 per person. 🤔
Maybe the authorities figure they are safer as soon as they cross the border?😉
Another great video. Cheers from the shores of Galveston Bay on the Texas Gulf Coast Mate.
Great job this week Sammy! Love a good winter mackerel session. See you next week! Tell your little princess HELLO from America!!!
Absolutely well derseved Spanish. Theyre absolute beasts from land so i cant imagine how hard they fight out on the boat. Absolutely nuts.
Sammy knows that I’m his biggest fan by far 😊
My Sunday AM UK treat! Thanks Sammy.
My daughter is 17 now bud and it seems like yesterday she was Billie’s size, proper man. Bravo👏
Hey Sammy
Can u pls make a video on how u make your Spanish Mackerel rigs and rig your baits? Would help a lot.
Thanks mate
Agreed, a bit more detail in that department would be great Sammy.
Copy that gentleman when the weather is bad a little technical video could be awesome even with some rough locations and weather conditions ect 👍
Loved the show. Our mac's are a little different in the states, but still one of my favorites to go after. Along with grouper.
Wow that fish at the end, mental!!
Well done Sammy great fish
Love it when a plan comes together 👍
Awesome mate🎣
Hey Sammy in the next video could you please run through how you rig up your baits for trawling I would love to know how to do it so I can chase big pelagics the same way
Haha! Awesome job mate! I think you invented a new word there -“Bonihhilated”. Champion effort!🏴☠️🎣🙌
Well done poppa
Persistence Sammy 👌🎣🍻
Hey mate after seeing you today I see where ya were. Thanks for saying hi and being a nice guy. Hope to see them luderick on a vid?
Sammy your solo fishing skills are legendary!!
Liking the few sessions in one video Sammy. I'm sure it's alot for you to do but makes every minute a good watch.
Great ep Sammy. The bag limit is pretty harsh, but that 18kg fish yields well. Nice to see your little one too, watch em tho mate, they are grown before you know it 👍
Might end up with a Wahoo there too.
Well done Sam, persistence always pays off. Leo thinks your a Legend! I tell him otherwise 😂😂🍻🍻🍻
Another cracking watch
Keza
Awesome mate, thanks!!
No leashes!!!! Sammy you’re playing with fire lol! Love your stuff thanks for the videos 🎉
I fish alone a lot, I also wear an inflatable PFD and I wear a PLB also.
You're champ Sam 🏆 good work
What a classic little boy. My gradson Stirling is a similar quality of a boy. Cute and cheekiy. Well done. With good parenting hopefully he won't ever feel the need for machetes and knives in his life as sadly many young boys seem to these days.
Nice catch Sammy
Excellent.
The size of the spanish and kings yall have are massive compared to the ones we catch in the Gulf of Mexico out of Texas!! Tight lines Sammy!!!
Great ep Sammy😊
I’m glad your daughter is low key impressed with that giant like my daughter low key impressed with my fish. May I suggest the hulk hogan style intro/ lead into the fish reveal. You will get the wow face
I’m a bit late mate sorry. Another awesome watch bud
Lets go!!!!!! You ever consider spending a day shark fishing just to get the thrill of the tug
@Mark-ux7yh
love the thrill of a tug
I thought that’s why we watch this on a Sunday tug
Nice to meet Billie
Sensational episode Sammy! Need to head out there and do the same.
Thanks for another great vid... when fishing foe snapper do you drift or do you have the engine in reverse. cheers
G'day Sammy!
G’day! Thanks for watching 🙂🙂
amazing video there mate.
n here I am 53 n have never tried sashimi lol....I keep saying 1 day....Thanks for another great video ♥♥
Your missing out mate, My young fulla keeps telling me if you cook it it's ruined.
Love ya vids Sammy!
Highly recommend some breathing courses tho lol
A day later? Might well have gone 20, they tend to lose a significant amount of water weight overnight. Nice feesh regardless!!
2:04 No doubt that was a big fish!
Yeah it certainly felt like a solid one!! 😤😤
my goodness your daughter is adorable.
Great video as always.
You have a relatively small boat, do you leave from Redcliffe or Bribie Island?
Mate are you running wire to those rigs or just mono to them?
Well in all fairness, fish do lose weight after a night of being stored. I don't think it would be a loss of 1.5Kg in this case. Doesn't matter because that is still a lot of high quality mackerel. Good on you for introducing your daughter to proper food. I can relate as I was raised on a mixed operation farm and also into a family who hunts, fishes, and forages. We produced, hunted, and collected over 95% of what we ate/eat.
Love the ep mate. Cant stand the ratchet on the reel though lol.
Hi Sammie, awesome video bro, what a day…..just curious what headland that is behind if you don’t mind me asking ?
Bet you taught her that sleeve trick and Mom is not to happy about the stain
Wow, so cool. Grats, is this rotto?
Enjoy that every time you get
They grow up before you know it
Hey Sammy, great episode mate! Question - whats your weight limit for spanish in SEQLD? Aren't you concerned about ciguatera in these big specimens?
Hi Sammy, great contend bud. following you from South Africa. Mackrel seem to be my nemesis, do you have a video sharing the rig you use they seem to swim much better then the way we do it in SA. If you dont mind giving some pointers.
Another great video I'm ready to watch, Sammy question for you when you trolling lures and baits how fast you trolling at?
Hey mate! Thanks for tuning in!
I usually let the baits choose the speed, they all swim at different speeds depending on how they are rigged, so I just check them boat side and keep at that speed 👍
@SammyHitzkeFishing cheers mate very helpful havnt done any trolling before but would like to give it ago so much appreciated for you to reply back. Keep the vids coming 🤙
Go back to mono for Spanish the stretch holds the hooks in
4 hooks and still managed to get off?! You hooked a magician mate 😅
Is that Moreton Island behind you.
Nice job Mate . What is the next species you’re thinking to go on the wall it’s been a while
She's such a good little eater
15:22 SPOILER:
Yeehaw! Congratz on your winter macarel chunkers!^^ So happy for you! Petri Hail from Germany!
Prost and Cheers!^^
i didn;t think Spanish are around in winter dam those are big boys.
Is the live fibre rod still available -cant find it on Wilson or BCF’s website.?
Where do you get the waistbelt pfd from
Nice whale breach in the background.
Hey Sammy cool video, mate you probably don’t have time for small talk, if however, if you get a chance is there any chance you know of any more or some land based luderick spots on the goldcoast please , 🎣
Hey mate, check out the seaway wall or around any of the bridges. Anywhere with some rocky structure seems to hold them 👍👍
Cheers bro
Maybe it’s just by a different name here to down under. We have what we call King Mackerel’s. Our Spanish Mackerels are smaller. Usually 3-5 pounds. Are they different? Or do the Spanish grow towards 50 pounds or more? I’m curious.
Are you still fishing with the 30lb? I am landbased and I've upgraded to the 65 braid and 80 leader mate! Just beef it up :P
What rods and reels are you using ?
I'm surprise you don't have leashes on those rods when you're trolling
Bit late to the party but I live relatively close by, and have always been taught you can’t eat the big fish like Spanish coz of ciguatera, is there a secret I’m missing or was the old boy being a bit paranoid??
How can we make the rig
สุดยอดครับ..❤
One in the boat is better than 100 in the water
Live weight would have been 20 easy!
