[@MelbLastboyscout]

dude that drone footage of the Mako swimming is epic! One of the best Ive ever seen

[@affanali4561]

AMAZING drone footage on that mako. Do you have any still shots by any chance?

[@pat3770]

Where abouts is this

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Off the coast of lakes entrance Victoria, Australia.

[@pat3770]

Fishing with the Captain cheers do you know if they catch them in queensland?

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Sure can. Best water for us is that 400-500m line on canyons and sharp drop offs. Anywhere you can find blue eye, Hapuka ect

[@pat3770]

Fishing with the Captain thanks mate cheers 👌 one last thing is there a certain time of year? For south qld I know they go down tasmania in around March

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

All year mate. That’s just because they only get chased around that time. Got them all thru winter aswell

[@galeysprimetime1115]

Awesome, just awesome.

[@adammcgeorge3538]

Are you doing a single break away weight? Keep it attached or break it off at bottom? Nice work

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Yeah single break away in some light mono 8lb mono been good for us can break it off if you want but can stay in as a break away when you get the bite

[@mattbass_strait6030]

How much fuel did you use and what kms out

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

That would easily give away the area we find fish. But heading out we cruise at about 60kmhr and between searching areas and punching most of the time we do about 150-180L. Coming home we open it up so could be a bit better

[@mattbass_strait6030]

@@fishingwiththecaptain got the same boat just like to know how much fuel usage definitely not looking ur spots.

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

@@mattbass_strait6030 nah all good man I know your boat. Same hull and running the proXS? Standard tank isn’t an issue to do a day on the swords but we always take a couple Jerry’s just in case we come tight on a big girl and get caught staying out there for them 8+ hour jobs and thru the night

[@richardcole2893]

A lot of fine eating there.

[@joeycarnevale9219]

What gear you using??

[@joeycarnevale9219]

Fishing with the Captain yeah mate bloody awesome! Cheers

[@drdriftsadventures1018]

Hell yea! Well done...

[@drdriftsadventures1018]

cant ask for more than that! Calm seas, Great company, Nice rig, Monster fish...These fish are huge for Vic Fishos. So well done Pinters...

[@harrisonchristian7642]

Were you using hollow core braid or solid braid?

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Solid core. The hollow core gets too water logged and can get a big belly in the line even when trying to keep your bait vertical

[@danielerickson3391]

5 minutes of that clicker would induce tourette's

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Daniel Erickson 😂 yeah your not wrong

[@isaaczadravic3554]

You skipped the one part i clicked on to watch 👍🏼

[@fishingwiththecaptain]

Haha ah mate I made the effort to film the bite and never had it recording ffs

[@mccandrj]

Why do you have the stupid clicker on?
