  1. Yes mate it performs well, we do a lot of marlin, tuna and deep dropping
  2. Thanks for the support guys really appreciate it! Thanks mate! We use run all simrad gear and NSS EVO 3 and this was just running off the basic transducer as we were in shallow water.
  3. A little footage I put together of a casual day fishing.
  4. Hey mate, the dish prepared was simple and I used bonito essentially raw fish marinated dish is known as poke
  5. Hey mate, not too sure if we will be heading this weekend.
  6. The crew decided to have a casual day and stay in close since the word on the marlin was quite. Covered a total of 150km fishing a variety of reefs since fishing was slow and the results speak for themselves. Managed to cook up a nice feed of bonito photo attached below
  7. For those who been fishing off Sydney know how hard the season has been with strong currents and horrid weather. A little bit of footage I put together from fishing 🎣 hope y’all enjoy 😊
  8. Yes, thats correct! we were roughly fishing the 2000m contour.
  9. Finally, with a nice break in the weather the crew took the opportunity to troll some lures and try for this so called stick face 🤷‍♂️. Well no stick face to seen with these glamours conditions however, the crew managed a consolation prize a 14kg bull. As well a good feed of crabs so not a bad day fishing 🎣
  10. Thank you! Thanks! I’m fishing off my own boat. So no charter here haha
  11. The crew made an impulsive decision to go out fishing for the weekend after viewing the forecast. Casual afternoon fishing at its finest a nice 90cm (6kg) kingfish followed by a fantastic feed of reef species and a gummy shark.
  12. Thanks mate, check out the previous post about the mako and was broadcasted across national television. Haha I’m at the Great Barrier Reef mate
  13. With all the media attention in Sydney after catching a mako the crew decided to push north. A decent break in the weather meant the crew had an opportunity to push to the wider reefs although slow fishing, there was plenty of quality fish. Which include, an 8kg red emperor and cobia. And it isn’t a fishing trip up north without a feed of mud crabs 🦀
  14. Hey mate I consider 15-20knots fishable depending on direction. However, I have been caught out in 30-40knots southerly off Queensland. Hope this helps. Yes all were legal only kept 3 for a feed.
  15. Haha drivers showed weird reactions. Few people questioned what it was and if it’s real. Haha enjoying the few minutes of fame before it’s gone.
  16. Hey mate, I’m a 670ht barcrusher and. We usually fish anywhere from 5-100km offshore
  17. With marlin firing the crew decided to pack the lures and push wide off Sydney. Managed to hook up at approximately 6:40am to nice black marlin unfortunately, dropped it boat side😭. Lures back in the water and 10minutes later another marlin came into the spread unfortunately could not get the hook to stick. We trolled to browns as we planned for a drop checked the sounder and and was barren. Lures back in and and started trolling again where we managed to stumble across new ground. Set up the spin gear with a jig and dropped down few pumps and were hooked up and fighting after a good 30minutes a blue eye surfaces. During this time we managed to spot a free swimming mako 🦈 fed it a bait and after a good solid fight we had it boat side and went 164.85kg. Overall, the crew went 2-2-0 on marlin and 1-1-1 on mako can’t complain with that.
  18. The crew managed to get amongst the kingfish. With approximately 50 fish landed within a 3 hour session. Enjoy the footage!
  19. Thank you ? Was definitely worth it. Even better to enjoy a great meal with great people
  20. Thanks mate! Plenty of fun along with smiles. Thank you! Thanks! Haha when the adrenaline is usually still high at that stage. The problem arises when you need to get the fish out of the boat onto land haha
  21. Thank you! Very unpredictable fish. Thank you!
  22. Teambaitcatcher had an excellent opportunity to push out wide to chase some fin off Sydney which was made possible due to 1st mate mobile marine. We contacted our great friend Dean, a charter operator to give us an idea and location as to where to look. After countless hours of trolling in not so ideal conditions we managed to find a patch of fin went 10-10-10 only keeping 3 fish for a feed (3 people onboard) Most fish were caught on a jigs and the biggest going 61kg Pm us for the name of the charter operator (site rules)
