Nice sickle pomfret bycatch. We catch brilliant pomfret off Nauru all the time sometimes 3 or 4 at a time if you send down more hooks. Congrats on your swords!
Thanks appreciate it still can’t believe I caught them in my bathtub! The pomfret was delicious, oh really how good is that! Maybe I should send down 3 smaller baits next time
@@ReelSaltyAus we’ve not got our swordy yet, but catch the pommies all the time. You can send down a regular deep drop rig for a few or make a boom triangle rig from wire and run the sword bait off the point and a deep drop rig and weight below it, we’ve caught 4 doing in that way. I’ve even sent bigger baits to keep the pommies off them, but they are little pigs and eat everything. Are you fishing structure or particular depth? Are you marking anything or dropping blind? Have you tried circle hooks instead of j hooks? Keep up the great work!
Were you fishing on the bottom at 550? And snapping the rock off ? Or fishing off the bottom abit also how did you go high pressure washing the toxic slim off
I was mainly braking the rock off but did leave it attached a few times depending on how fast the drift was. Not sure what you mean about pressure cleaning sorry?
Good to have you back mate love your vids you are one crazy fella going out that far on your own. Are you guys south of Adelaide? How did you go at getting your boat fixed?
Thanks mate haha it had to be done I’ve always wanted to catch a sword so made it happen. We had it welded up ourselves the manufacturer and dealer didn’t want to know about it
Sick video. Just subscribed. Good luck with more swordies and everything else. 🎉
Thanks legend!
Had a drop since and pulled hooks on a decent one 50m from the tinny.
Hopefully get another crack at them again soon
Great work mate! A new tinny loving subscriber here! I'm yet. to land one yet but it's on the list!
Thanks mate so stoked to get one and it makes it that much better to do it out the tinny! 🤞🏽you can get one soon

Roughly how far out were you when you droped and landed the last sword and what depth
Around 550m sounder doesn’t work that deep so don’t have an exact depth
