Thanks mate I'm glad you liked it. Get out there and give it a go

Thanks heaps mate glad you liked it. Its something different and pretty enjoyable mate.

Thanks heaps mate and yes more vids to come mate. Mate you didn't miss much with the weather and as you mentioned the camera doesn't show it one little bit.

Thanks heaps mate. Hope your going well mate.

Thanks heaps mate. Those flametail are hard to go past. Epic fish.

Thanks heaps mate I'm glad you like it. Thanks for watching

haha it may look easy but I can assure you lots of time and effort goes into it.

@@gregswickedfishing Is it the point to make sure the hook is in the middle of the fish school?

haha thanks mate they're a spectacular fish and I'm grateful to find them at that size 👌

Thanks heaps

haha thanks mate. I wish I didn't have to work lol

thanks mate

Cheers mate they're such a beautiful fish to look at and eat.

Thanks mate. It doesn't last long in my house. Love eating it.

Well done mate. Yeah its not as easy as people think and although using electrics doesn't sound very sporting, it still requires plenty of skill to catch fish.

Bahahahaha classic mate. You'd put those ball bag toad fish to shame mate 😂 Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it.

@@damop4827 hahaha Paten how the hell you been mate? Another bloke that's seen Brahman bull's aka Dayne's giant assets 🤣

thanks heaps mate 👍Glad you liked it.

Thanks for the kinds words mate. Those Flametails are such an awesome fish. Very very tasty as well 👌

Thanks heaps Ben glad you liked it mate. For the deep I'm using a 2kw thru-hull transducer which has a frequency range between 65 and 110 khz that I can choose from. I mostly run it between 65 and 82 khz which gives me a cone width of around 10 to 12 degrees which is ideal for the deep water.

We just use a Uni knot mate

Thanks heaps for the kind words mate, much appreciated. Mate like any fish once you've filleted the fish you have about 2 to 3 days before you should eat it or freeze it.

Thanks for getting back to me.

Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it. There will be more videos with sonar in them soon.

Cheers mate

Thanks mate glad you liked it. I use redbull style cans that I've filled with lead mate.

Thank you. I'm using a 2kw 82b-35r variable low freq transducer. Unfortunately you can only buy 1kw or transom mount unless you get a custom one made to suit 2-3kw. Also depends on your unit if it accepts more than a 1kw transducer as well.

thanks mate and yes its the 82b35r mate

Hey mate yeah i have and one of the reels in this vid has about 30 mtrs of mono leader on it. After trialing it for a while I've seen very little benefit for deep dropping and we don't run heavy drags unless we're on structure where the bass grouper are. Running a longer soft rod certainly helps as well and slower speeds as you mentioned. Depending on the current we will use slightly different weights but I will often drop one and move the boat over more before dropping the other.

@@gregswickedfishing thanks for the reply Greg. I like the mono once I hookup, but the longer the leader the more drag there is in the current, so it’s abit of a trade off I reckon.

In that vid we were using two different types. Miya Epoch and Kristal. We now only use Miya Epoch and just got another Z9 model. Work horses that last.

Thanks mate. I tie a uni knot but go around the swivel eye twice before tying the knot.

@@gregswickedfishing Cheers Greg

Hi Sean thanks mate. We use a mix of Miya Epoch and Krystal reels. Been using the Miya epoch reels for many years with no dramas but the krystal is fairly new so time will tell mate. The shimano and Diawa electrics are getting better and great if you only do a bit of deep dropping here and there. They also come with a good warranty which is a bonus.

thanks mate we sure do. Sounds like I need a trip to the Bahamas to catch your fish before they die lol. The boat is a locally made plate aluminum boat called Riptide alloy boats and its 24 foot long. Cheers

thanks mate. Deep drop commercial supplies at Mooloolaba

Thanks heaps mate. The miya epoch reels have been really good for us mate.

Hi mate, settings largely depend on each unit and brand as well as the transducer. I will try cover some basic settings that will help most but. Thanks for the suggestion mate. Cheers

We love all styles of fishing here :-)

@@gregswickedfishing fantastic! And the fishes?! Never seen anything like them, just beautiful!:)

Thanks heaps mate. Haha yeah it's chalk and cheese hey. After a day of deep dropping I go to bed with the noise of miya still screaming in my ears 🤣

@@gregswickedfishing 😂😂.

The Miya Epoch's have been faultless for over 10 years now. I've had a couple of issues with the other used in this video but.

Mate anything that acts an attractant is worth it in the deep

Cancel that, I asked before I got thru the rest of the vid. Thats really great info you have there and I'll take all that for my first deep drop, cheers.

Cheers mate glad you liked it.

Hmm tough one mate and to be honest the flesh looks very similar in both species but I think the flametail might just get over the line in taste.

@@gregswickedfishing Sir you are good nature man I really appreciate you bcoz you reply all you comment love you sir from india🇮🇳

@@delhifishing thank you for the kind words it's much appreciated

In that vid we were using two different types. Miya Epoch and Kristal. We now only use Miya Epoch and just got another Z9 model. Work horses that last.

Fish from those depths rarely get put back as they're generally good eating and die from being pulled up from such deep water.

I filmed that video off Brisbane mate

@@gregswickedfishing Man that is nuts the size of them, thanks so much for the trip, I didn't even get sea sick or splashed HAHAHAHAHA

hahaha you mean less than 1 month of eating. Doesn't last long in my place.

Correct sir

I never see worms in these deep water fish.

That's called Game fishing mate lol

Brisbane, QLD, Australia.

that one is called an Alfonsino or also known as an Imperador

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia mate.

@@gregswickedfishing thanks for the reply we get similar fish up north in WA Ruby Snapper

@@barrieprice7073 nice mate we do get the occasional one here as well.

When fishing strong current in deepwater an electric motor will not help you. You're not trying to slow the boat up against the current you're actually trying to move back with the current to ensure you lines are straight up and down with minimal belly in it.

Little pink 1 toward the end is a hogfish

Interesting mate we call a rosy jobfish a different species in Australia. Sounds like there's no shortage of them over there then.

It's just another style of fishing that may not be for everyone. Most people that try it love it but.

Just another form of fishing Tony. Anyone that has done it will tell you how enjoyable it is and you still need apply plenty of skill to locate and catch these fish. Not forms of fishing are sports fishing and there's nothing wrong with targeting and catching food for table.

It's not cheating when you have to reel over 300meters of line with that much weight
