Some really nice photography in this one Matt, not to mention some fantastic fishing.

Best KZfaq fishing channel out there and you are definitely underrated.

Another great episode. Can't wait for the next two to see how the trip finishes.Your editing is top shelf. Cheers

Epic session boys, full credit to you on how much hurt you can put on those tuna drop after drop. Those tuna are no joke, bet there were some sore muscles in the following days 💪😎

Matthew, another cinematic masterpiece of epic proportions.

Amazing footage. Can’t wait to see the next video

Whoop whoop! Such an epic and sweet trip that will be remembered forever by you guys!

Epic! My bucket list trip!!!

Epic scenery , even better fishing !! ❤❤

Wow awesome guys amazing fishing 👋🤗🥰👍🐟🎣🐠

You guys are definitely in my backyard as I am out of Seaforth love fishing the islands

Just WOW many thanks great video

What a beautiful thing! In the beginning, looks like the tuna are biting through the leaders and assist cords? What was the trace size that worked...80.,100, 150lbs? What was an effective assist cord, or the hook product used on the jigs?

Biting midges are most active under calm conditions. They are most prevalent around dawn and dusk, but may continue to bite through the night and during overcast days. Biting midge commonly breed around the edge of water bodies, with the adult female laying her eggs in places like damp soil, moist decaying leaf material and muddy, sandy or vegetated substrates. Emergence of adult biting midge is associated with the new and full moon phases, especially for midge species breeding in (intertidal) coastal areas. The adults can live for several days to months depending on the species.

Wicked fishing, we used to chase the nth blues around the islands up here off Cardwell on 4-6kg mono 20 or so yrs ago and very rarely loose to sharks now just about impossible to to land any on any line as so many bloody sharks, only ones happy are tackle shops. Cheers

Those tuna are ripping through the drag. Great video.

awesome video

Outstanding 🎣😎💪

Proper Rip snorter of a adventure ❤

What boat is that mate? Looks nice

Question about the rod reel line combo?? Could you tell me more?

what rod and reel and line do you use for jigging

The purpose of samd flies is to remind you that you are not dreaming bro , otherwise there wouldn't be any proof that you aren't , because this vid is too dreamy. Absolutely outrageous experience m8 ✌️

And I like it very much. You are tired of catching fish. And then to the boatmen who pass by it. Exhilaration received and gone. Telling others to taste it too. Calling them too. You show them how to catch it and tell them to jig in the sea. You are a very nice person 😂😂😂😂

The videos you out together are great and thanks as I sit in a hospital bed I need the excitement. A few years back I captured a number of yellow eyed mullet here in NZ which is the same species as you have and identified their food sources as no one had done that before. Sand flies, kelp files and sand hoppers convert the cellose found in beach cast seaweed into protein. Protein is eventual for all species and at night as the tide moves into beach cast seaweed you will see a number of fish species feeding on the maggots of these species of fly's. Fly's are the beginning of the marine food chain and those who use seaweed on their gardens are impacting on marine life.

Sandflies are frustrating, but they are important to the fields of medicine and anthropology. Only the females bite, but because they feed on blood they carry vast amounts of biological data from the area they habitate that studying them can unlock the secrets of the environment around them. If you want to be less appetising to the little vampires you can take vitamin b tablets a week or so leading up to your trip, and you can try adding aome eucalyptus oil into your rinse cycle with your clothing, the smell deters both sandflies and mosquitoes.

NICE :-) but why not using PE8 Gear for stronger fish?

Alu or fiber boat?

Wow nice spot and country sir

Sand flies are a by product of politicians there just so annoying and they wont go away. they prey on the public and actually do nothing just take small bites of anything they can.. Anyway another great video. You should try up in Hills inlet as great looking structure up in there on high tide but as you know once your in there its a wait for the next high tide if you you dont get out quick. Great stuff and epic fights love it

What setup specs is that... happening!!!! ❤❤❤❤

I am or subscriber and supporter sir❤

Nice,,, a reel sound.

Nice

the assist hook got bitten off??? wow!

What's your pole again? There's a store in America called Bass Pro, they have a fishing brand called Pelagic pursuit... that's not yours is it?

Time to stop mate can t take it any longer 😂 dream fishing every vid ❤ thight lines

ChatGPT 3.5 What role do sandflies play in nature ChatGPT Sandflies play a role in nature primarily as both prey and predators. As larvae, they feed on organic matter in soil, contributing to nutrient cycling. As adults, they serve as prey for various insectivorous animals and birds, helping to sustain those populations. Additionally, some species of sandflies are predators of other small insects, helping to regulate their populations in ecosystems.

Sungguh" luar biasa tarikan ikan yang satu ini👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I'm from Philippines I'm jigging also I'm using jig with out reel and rod, I am using handline only❤

In regards to midgies...there's always gotta be one dog trying to ruin your good time!

SO RAD

Sand flies exist on Earth primarily due to two reasons: Suitable Environment: Sand flies thrive in warm, humid environments with moist soil. These conditions allow them to breed and lay their eggs in damp places near decaying organic matter, which their larvae feed on. This makes tropical and subtropical regions ideal for sand flies, but they can also be found in temperate areas with similar conditions. Sand flies can be a nuisance with their bites, they also play a role in the ecosystem as decomposers (through their larvae) and as part of the food chain for some predators. The End. and I hate them too lol

Woooww ikan nya sangat banyak dan besar 👍👍👍

Where is this heaven?

A Sandflys purpose is to suck literally. keeping away the weakest of souls. leaving my islands uninhabitable but for me to camp n more fish for me to catch thats the purpose of sandflys gotta love em

Just to piss you off lol

If Sand Flies are anything like the Horse Flies we have in Texas, I can only presume they are good for a hellacious bite, and to carry off small animals and children.

I jigging for my family to buy a foods everyday, but I'm using diy jig because the price of jig in our place is very high I can't afford the price, I am looking someone to who a good heart to give me a jig that is my wish 🙏

Fuck why he catches and let them go. Why catch if you going to let them go

They are there just to piss some people off not me never feel them never have as a kid bought up by a creek

I like mand IM from Indonesian

Baby fish eat sand flies that's their positive that's their use

First

like you very much. It is quite a surprise that you are playing catch with the fish. I don't have such a good reel like you. You can see my channel in this account. I am a poor person from Kerala in India. You won't get here for a penny with a local fish rod and a fish reel. A lot of money is worth paying here. I had to get an 8000 model Salt water spinning reel. It was enough to get the daiwa aird. Give your channel giveaway that way. Kerala and India have a huge KZfaq audience that you don't know about. If you give me a giveaway and put the video on your channel. 10 million subscribers in India may have been received. I will also post a video. It would be nice if you could courier it.

why are they torturing the fish

Doesnt know how to fight

"Jigging king👑" ❤🫶💪
