Ahoy fisho's! What a video I have for you this week! I go out chasing extra large mackerel trolling dead baits. As is often the case, if you fish big baits, you catch big fish... and after a bit of a wobbly start, that's exactly what happened! Of course it wouldn't be a episode without a little bit of drama as well would it!
Throughout this episode I also run through the best practice for how to store your fish on the boat, filleting your catch as well as how to freeze your fillets without losing any quality. All useful things to know before your next session.

Cracker session at gentlemen's hours Sam. How come I only get to go on the 2am jobs! I can confirm that the mac you looked after so beautifully was absolutely delicious, 'shashimi' and on the grill rack. Cheers.

Nice work on the cleaning bro, not the easiest with that size as ya said. P.S. I called that one for 23kg when it hit the deck, good fish. I usually have a hand as well for lifting the fillet. Have had a time trial and can whip the sides off a 10-15kg Mack in 52 seconds, I’ll have to try send ya the video.

Nice filleting mate. If you want to see an absolute gun rip fillets off a fish, watch Fishing The Wild when they are on the WildCard boat. Old mate processes a Spanish in about 10 seconds. He also probably does 100 of them a day.

Hey Sammy, great vid. A quick question about the line you use for trolling on your overheads. Do you use braid or mono straight through and also what line class for the macs? I've recently purchased my 1st overhead trolling outfit of a tyrnos 20 and a 15-24kg trolling rod and wondering what line class and leader to run with for similar fishing. Cheers 👍

Mate good job. I use a similar rig but sometimes i run my baits behind a stainless paravane to get them down 5-10 mtrs, or whatever you require. Try in future to just cut strait thru one side of the gills. Actually thru the hard boney/ frilly part. Then strop/rope his tail and hang with head just in the water ten mins.. Then ice/pack.. Also You may not be making mac vids in the future with the Qld Govt DAF Fisheries looking to potentially close East coast fishery due to Low mac stocks. looked like there were plenty out there to me. I certainly havnt seen any difference in numbers up North.

Yeah if you got it stuck it it’s teeth it would cut it for sure. Funnily enough I’ve never cut a bag with one though. Been using them for 6 years now 🤷‍♂️
