400km On A Micro Boat, This Fish Saved Me! - Fraser Island Part 2

  • Part Duex!! Scraped through by the skin of my teeth with a buzzer beating Fish... Fraser Island is one of the special places in the world, the largest sand island on the planet and one of the only places that Black Marlin can be regularly caught in less then a few metres of water! This trip pushed the skiff to new limits and was a real adventure, with both ups and downs. Really hope you're enjoying the Fraser Trip Vids, one more to come. Cheers Rod

    After watching the last year of your videos I see now you had a small four stroke merc. It is my understanding it was a 6 hp. The bigger four stroke will get the same gas mileage as the smaller one as you are no where near pushing it. But clearly have guts when you need it. I love watching the evolution of a system. The rods forward is a huge improvement in my opinion over the kayak. Then new boat but no sounder.... then new sounder..... and so one. cheers. Best of luck fishing
