Rod & Mark = 2 chillest fishermen on the tube, 1 true mate is worth a million non, fr. 👌👍🤙

Hi Mate, always love seeing your posts pop up. I am excited to say that in the next week or so, I will take delivery of my very own 1450 for Northside Marine. A couple of months back, I spoke with Jason about upgrading my tinny, and without hesitation, he handed me the Stabicraft brochure. I think I was instantly hooked, but your videos made the 1450 an easy choice. This morning, I got a sneak peek of some of the 2024 1450 upgrades and, must say, some very pleasant surprises. It just get better and better, I plan on putting a video up so people can see. Keep up the great work; your openness and transparency are refreshing. Any man who ventures into the ocean in a Kayak is someone to be respected. You are a braver man than I am. I would be keen for a 1450 dual trip one day if you are up to it.

going through all the old vids with mark in them haha. Love your guys relationship and the banter

Glad to know you are still posting. These videos are very therapeutic for me thank you😊😊

Another epic video Rod, good to see you with your buddy Mark that guy can cook. A simple dish yet so healthy. Aloha from Kansas

Excellent video! Awesome eats. I remember fishing bonito, yellowtail/amberjack, and calico bass off La Jolla, and Point Loma in San Diego in the late 60's, 70's, 80's. Some of the best numbers ever. 👍🐟

Thanks for the great video guys! Always a treat when Mark is around. Always super chill and good vibes from the guy

Good to see Mark and his amazing squid catching and cooking skill again, looking forward to more frequent presence of him.

Not sure if I told you but you were my first KZfaq subscription. From the kayak to the better kayak to the small inflatable to quitting your job to the bigger inflatable to the boat... Your episodes are like a fishing trip. That's why I Love them. You have great trips, bad trips and everything in between. But we get to see the set up, maybe the location or drive, the cool morning start out on the water. Such a treat, all of it. Thanks, Rod, for the continued excellent filming, trips, good, bad and all the effort into your awesome editing. My first channel and hopefully my longest lasting :)

Lmao “he’s having a bad day”😂😂😂 “He’s got a bit of beans all of sudden!” “He’s full of beans!” wtf Rod, the phrasing in this episode is next level 🤣😭

Half a lifetime ago when I lived in Rose Bay (now up in QLD), we used to fish the wooden white markers in the harbor for kings, flicking plastics and dropping a live bait more often then not resulted in a king. The corner of Rose Bay/Vaucluse was always worth a troll at first light in the summer months.

Bias opinion being from Sydney town myself, just love the vids with two old mates getting together and getting it done ✅ fantastic gents 👌 👌 👌

Right on time - thanks for these fantastic videos. Without a doubt my favourite channel Rod😊

Always good when Mark shows up🤙

Man, Rod I just absolutely love your videos. Blessings to you and yours.

The guy cutting the fish and tomatoes knows his business cutting on the backstroke. Always slice on the backstroke like a culinary samurai. A sprinkle of seasoned breadcrumbs would have been nice.

Great video!!! I needed this after watching almost 5 stinking inches of snow fall 😠😡And now, as per usual, I am hungry!! Wonderfall as always Rod XOXOX

Rod we used to fill old soft drink bottles for ice, or Milk cartons, you bust em up before you leave simple ice solution

Thank you for the very enjoyable video, Rod and Mark 😍 Great fishing and inspiring cooking!

Once again killing the simple fishing / simple recipe game. Mark always makes those dishes look so easy

No better way to start the weekend than kicking back with Rod’s latest adventure!

Looking forward to watching this later.. Love your channel sooooo much!!! :0) Hello from Ireland

I look forward to seeing the bonito every year. This year was a funky one in San Diego. Good size fish when they popped up.

Quality fishing! Some nice fish caught there

That's such a blast when you get a bunch of hot fish stacked up underneath you! Those Bonito are hard fighters, looked like a lot of fun. And that bait that had the clean bite taken out at 7:53 - like you said, holy smokes! Was that a tailor? Bad ass fish, whatever it was. No skinny dipping there for me, he'd take your pecker clean off! Always a great way to start the weekend, thanks and take care Rod.

7:30am and I'm watching you guys cook what looks to be a very nice breakfast, where's mine? Lol damn you always make me hungry

Some of my favorite content to watch. Love your videos and when you fish with friends. The meals always look fantastic. Makes me wish I was back in the Florida Keys again. Love it! Be well, guys.

Didn't know you caught bluefish in Australia. Cool.

I absolutely love that recipe, I usually do anchovies and garlic with some slices of lime or lemon on top, and it also goes brilliantly with a herb breadcrumb topping. Well done, it looks delicious and has inspired me to get that recipe back into my rotation.

Lovely surprise

Your fishing blogs are always great. Thanks for sharing same passion with me 😊. Cheers!

Mum was Greek Cypriot. A splash of olive oil was half a bottle!

I jave been waiting for this all day. Thanks Rod

Daily fish is fresher than stored.

I love all the videos you put up, I love seeing the live kayak videos and the ones where you camp on the island and fish around the perimeter. Island tent camping was great. I love the boat!! Are you able to go to new islands further out than you were able to on the pocket rocket? Much love and respect!!

Thanks Rod and Mark, food looked so tasty 😊

I’ve spent most of my life living in this area so the heads, Rose Bay (where the boat went in) and Watsons Bay (ice run) are so familiar to me.

Well done yet again. So appreciate your content Man.

Love your Sydney trips. Back to your origin! Onya Rod!

Your in the right spot for livies at the first place. I find burley really helps! Small sinker the size of a pea and smaller hook sabikis so it floats a bit more naturally. And go right in to the corner where it's shallow.

Thanks for another great video. Really interesting to see you fishing in your old back yard. You mentioned tailor off the rocks - I still spin up the big ones from time to time but usually in March/April where I fish on the Northern beaches. I seem to get the biggest in the pre-dawn.

Hello Rod, i would like to have the recipe in the description ? all your cooking is special and delicious...thanks !😋yummy

What a session! ❤ very rad.

Thanks Rod for new content!

great vid .thanks ....peace out

Great footage of the Yakkas eating bait Rod!

80th view in under 4 mins! That meal looked amazing and I'm going to try that recipe with a local Canadian fish. Thank you for the inspiration chef!

We will call them choppers as well here, a lot of times though when we say “choppers blues” probably talking about a bigger blue? I like blue fish fresh, a lot folks look down their noses at em but they are good straight out the water. Cheers man, looked like a fun day

Man that looked like a great time!

Nice vid Rod👍

Still plenty of XL Tailor getting around rod, gotta target em' to catch em'! Nice vid once again mate.

Wicked, Rod! Love the channel 💜

The chicken crimpy is the MVP 🤣👍👍👍

I'm going to try that recipe on my next ca halibut or rockfish

I'm only a little bit envious lol 😄 you always bring fantastic content and views wherever you go, two top Guys addicted to Ocean life and food, both great cooks ✌️👍👍Thanks !🤿💙Love It. Btw. I am on a little Island in Thailand, underwater is my fav. and the food😅

Love the haircut

food looks fantastic! will try.

Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦

Great adventure friend, enjoy your videos 👍👍stay connected 👍

I went to Sydney for the first time last week. Took the ferry to manly of course. I would have loved to have spent a lot more time exploring the harbour and doing some fishing. What a place !

Try a second gang hook 4 inches below on the tail for the bite that comes at the back. You will get that back bite.even use wire from the main hook.

Great thumbnail and thanks for the video!

Always enjoy the uploads with Mark, will try this recipe. Any other types of fish you would recommend for this? Mark needs his own cooking channel.

🐟 nice fish

Onya Rokkit 👍 Just planted a finger lime, bloody leaf miners are killing me. Inconsistent watering or rain and or lack of potassium sulphate makes the citrus fruit drop early

04:25 Whoa!! You could almost just net them! 😁

Better put old mate on boat washing duties. Bloody amateurs 😂. I cringe everytime i net a squid in my yak too. Its a process to keep them pointed away from you lol.

TNX 4 VID LOL

Fantastic Video! I loved the bonito action. I will get out to the same spot and have a go next week. I am just wondering what Bait board you have? Would love to grab one.

Live baits were thick rod ! And it's so much fun when they wake up and run when they see the boat nice bonito. Thanks for the magic you create. And it's awsame to see the big blue fish and the story again of you and your father fishing as a kid off the rocks was nice to see your perfected style catching these tasty fish. What size reel were you using for your live baiting? In the authority range?

Hey Rod what fishing rods and reels do you use and what sizes? I'm planning a fishing trip this spring to El Salvador with my wife and children and plan to go fishing. Thank you for your time and very informative videos. Always enjoy them. Blessings!

If you catch a nice one, but have no ice, can you put them on a stringer in the water while you carry on fishing to keep them fresh and alive, or would they likely get eaten?

You would have saved some time catching the yakkas at the jetty before you launched. They are stacked up under there. A piece of mince beef on each hook and that bait tank would have been full in 10 mins.

❤❤❤

Farkkkk bro I’m camping in lake Illawarra tonight would be mad if you came down but ik it’s a long shot should really plan to do a camping mission buddy boating would be mad I’ve got a 480 coast runner with 150lt of fuel can basically go anywhere hay

Bluefish have CRAZY teeth

Whoop whoop bored n scrolling. Cheers Rod.

Perfect timing! I was just gonna sit down and have lunch. Happy Friday!

Hell yea!!

pretending i'm an Aussie: mahk's ghat noice leegs

How do you have your live bait tank? Thinking of something similar for my 4.15

Lets go!

Can you use a cast net in Australia?

What size reel?

4:49 are you allowed to used cast net in AU for getting bait?

Should of put some squid in with it as well

🔥👍🔥👍

Guys anyone know whats that boat ramp called i wanna go there with my boat ? Thx

ok where’d he get those knife skills?

How can you leave chicken shapes unfinished Rod.???????

BBQ > Chicken crimpy

🎣👍👍❤️

Are castnets illegal there?

4:47 damn that's alot of bait is it illegal to use a cast net there? You could of had enough bait for days in 1 throw lol

A cast net would get most of that bait in one go. Assuming not allowed where you at

That stone dulls the blade.

Has anyone fished a bait contra to how it's supposed to be fished?🤔 Maybe jigging a dead bait, etc... any luck?

Go fishing with no ice?

italian food

Those are Roma tomatoes 🍅 not cherry. Those are the size of grapes n slightly bigger
