  • Ahoy Fisho's! In this weeks episode I head out to chase a fish that loves to hunt around the beacons. The mighty school mackerel! Schoolies are a super exciting fish to target. Everything is fast! You wind fast, they hit fast and they run faster! During the warmer months of the year they are in plentiful numbers thanks to an influx of bait in the bay area. To top it all off they are great eating and offer very minimal waste at the filleting table as I show you a few tips and tricks to help clean your catch!
    I hope you Enjoy the Episode!

    Firstly, I was thinking what would be the fastest and most effective body armour to make. And I actually came up with the idea of duct tape brigandine. For example, you buy 5mm thick titanium plates and then duct tape them together as a vest with shoulders and you could even do a brigandine helmet. The squares need to be about the size of your hand or palm of your hand. In addition, you could also do 12mm thick aluminium squares or 4mm steel squares for the duct tape brigandine. However, your steel brigandine is going to be heavier and provide slightly less protection. Lastly, you can expect the titanium and aluminium brigandine to stop 10mm Glock rounds at point blank range and the steel to stop 9mm at point blank range.

    Dunno if you know what a halibut is, it’s kind of the North American equivalent of what you call a flatty. I caught a 33 inch (84cm) California Halibut, which is pretty much epic to catch from the shore surfcasting. Wanted to share that since your channel is one of a few that got me into fishing the ocean in the first place. 13lbs fish that is 80% fillet, like 10lbs of the best tasting non pelagic one can catch here in California. Thanks for the stoke for fishing you inspired! Not luck either, 4 hour session casting for that one fish landed but man was it worth it!

    Hi Sammy ,
    Second watching the video.
    Made me realise , I never got the answer to the question from you.
    What is actually this red mat , the very same we keep seeing on your videos?
    Thank you

    • @SammyHitzkeFishing
      @SammyHitzkeFishing  2 роки тому

      Sorry mate I must have missed your comment!
      The red mat is just to put between the seat and the back of my legs while I’m driving long distances. The icebox seat that came with the boat has a big, hard and rough ridge around the outside that hits you right in the calf muscle when driving behind the console. The red mat is just something I had lying around that I took one trip to combat it. Ended up working well so I just take that every trip now and rather then actually fixing the problem 🤣🤣💁‍♂️

    Is there a particular time of the year that is better than others for this? I went last season, but we only caught a single mackerel. We did hit mid tide on a big tide though and couldn't hold our position at all.

    @jordangrant6219 2 роки тому

    Great vid as always @sammy , quick question though, how do you reckon an older glass tip style rod like an ugly stick gold or Daiwa beefstik would go? Maybe not as whippy but heaps of power down low and a nice tip still. I've switched to lighter gear for snapper and hope the same outfit might work in this scenario too

    • @SammyHitzkeFishing
