I remember helping my uncles fish from a long liner in Conception Bay Newfoundland back in 1966. I was 14 years old from Montreal and had a great time working and learning how important it was. Brings back great memories. They would catch both Turbot and Halibut. Thanks for the return of that memory.

Wow, back again after 2 years for a re-viewing. It's a pleasure to watch all of you getting the job done, good days or stinkers. I've watched enough of your videos that I have some idea how hard you work, and what a wide range of talents you have besides fishing. Developing the skills, and the specialized tools to fabricate your own gear, fitted up as you want it and with the huge plus of knowing your finished fabrications are safe, effective and reliable! The special tools come slowly, a piece at a time (& when you can justify the expense), but they sure do pay off when things just _work!_ The way you have your deck layout organized, and the way you all work together is great to watch. I know it is hard physical work, and you have some very long days during the summer (as we do), but it seems as if you work at a pace that doesn't leave you constantly absolutely exhausted, more vulnerable to accidents, mistakes, or slow responses. Seems like you enjoy life more, and will live longer. Thank you for posting these, and keeping us updated on the Emerald Isle. You've made a lot of progress since you brought her home. I keep waiting for Matt to dream up a machine where he pushes in a pollock or herring at one end, and 3 or 4 chunks fall out the other end, of the tube, sized "just right" for baiting halibut hooks. You "acquired' the big bait grinder for crab season, but in my mind's eye I see another "torpedo tube" device where the semi-frozen fish gets cut into chunks, while fingers do not. Probably some commercial large-scale equipment supplier makes a machine that does this, but I'd love to see what the Matt and Dad team would brainstorm. Something quick to hook up, easy to use, stows neatly, but that stops instantly if necessary. I'm sure you have many projects already lined up, so I won't hold my breath in the meantime, lol! Best regards and many thanks from land-locked northern Alberta!

Out of dutch harbour we deck loaded and caught 1 400lb Halibut 3 of us 3 gaffs and one fish refusing to come aboard. Eventually we used the rock of the boat to get it aboard. I believe we were off Kodiak.

Thanks for another very interesting video. Sitting in Northern Norway (Europe), I can see quite a few differences from the halibut fisheries we are doing here. The halibut looks the same, but ours (Atlantic Halibut) seems to be bigger in average. The minimum size here is 47 inches, and I guess the average size is more like in the range 50-55 inches. It is not unusual to get like 93 inches (approximately 100 kg / 220 lbs) halibuts, whereas the Norwegian record is 314 kg/ 692 lbs. Another difference is the vessels design (approximately the same vessel size or less) and the way we are setting and hauling the line. Always setting with the sea current and hauling against the sea current. Setting out the line at the rear of the boat, and hauling it on the starboard side, with the bow against the sea current. Normally, the branch lines are attached to the main line withe knots. It seems like we have more rough weather conditions than you, but the mountains are very similar. Keep up your good work!
@EISAlaska4 жыл бұрын
Thanks Svein. Your fish are definitely larger there, our minimum size is 32". We get larger fish when we are shallow up in the rock piles, but 35-40 pound average would be big for a trip. Also the Bering Sea tends to have larger fish and 450 pound fish are not uncommon. Most vessels here do haul gear amidship on the starboard side. Stern hauling just works good for us, and we pull with the current when possible. It is very easy hauling like that often with little or no throttle and steering input for the set. We also set with the current or at an angle. Many of the larger vessels say over 50' use conventional gear in tubs or skate bottoms, where the gangion is tied to the mainline. We like snap-on gear because it baits fast, and no gearwork when you are done hauling. Also it keeps our deck nice and tidy. Both gear types work good though and convention gear is faster to set and haul than snap-on gear. And the weather...well we are pretty fair weather fishermen these days. We do get into some nasty stuff occasionally, but we try to avoid it. The area we are fishing has open water clear to the Washington coast and during a good storm will see seas build to 30 feet or more. I really enjoy reading your comments and would like to see your fishery. I love the lines the vessels up there, and you guys really work some rough water. Good fishing to you and be safe!
@sveinberth4 жыл бұрын
@@EISAlaska Hi again, guys Another quite big difference between our coastal fisheries and yours is the variety of fishing species and the associated gears you are using. I have seen you fishing with lines for halibut, jigging for rockfish, using pots for crab and purse seine for salmon. In Northern Norway the fishing fleet 35 feet and less get the majority of the yearly income from one single specie - the North East Atlantic Cod - also called “Skrei”. The season for it is January to April every year. The gears used are gillnet, longline, jigging machines and scottish seine. Most vessels are specialized on one specific gear, but some combine gears, for example gillnet and jigging machines, lines and jigging machines, jigging machines and pots. This year, the cod quota for a 35 feet boat is 39.4 metric tons (78000 lbs) round weight, which is 26.3 tons head off and gutted. Due to real bad weather in january, february and partly march this year, the fishing was difficult, but the prices went all time high. Approximately 3 USD per kilo (2 lbs) head off and gutted. In addition there are big quotas for haddock and saithe (atlantic pollock). The price in the market for these species s approximately ½ to ⅓ of the cod. Other important species are tusk, atlantic halibut, greenland halibut and King Crab (only in the north eastern region). In addition there are mackerel and herring, but the small coastal vessels normally do not utilize the pelagic species. Summa summarum: You combine more gears and fish on more species than we do.

Whacking with clubs is counter productive, though the ending of a life is still the result, you won't miss and bruise up the flesh and you see when they cut through at the gills initially? That bleeds the fish so not only do you get nice white fillets, but blood starts to go bad very quickly so best remove it. If you kill them before you cut them, they don't bleed because their heart stops.We have a responsibility to treat all of our food animals with respect so there is no wastage. Good observation

This was Super cool and informative to watch. Couple of questions if you don't mind entertaining them. 1. When fishing for Halibut, do ever want to keep one or some for yourselves? 1a.

Being an octopus loving mess(to eat), would you consider a catch / clean & cook mini video of Halibut and Octopus? 3. What do you all like to do when you're not Fishing / Crabbing, basically on your off time not on the boat? 4. Has this Covid-19 virus situation affected the fishing market from your POV? After all said and done. Awesome Channel. Be Safe & I appreciate you still being out there grinding to bring us quality products from the sea. God Bless and Be Well.
@EISAlaska4 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jurassic! Glad you enjoyed it. So let's see.. 1. Surprisingly, we rarely eat halibut. It is delicious and we love it, but easier (in terms of retaining legally) to keep some rockfish or cod which we also love to eat. 1a. We are allowed to retain halibut, but with a cost. The amount you keep for personal use while commercial fishing is deducted from your fishable pounds or quota for the year so that is poundage that you can't sell. So it's kinda like buying the fish from yourself. We can fish for halibut under a subsistence permit and there is no cost for that. 2. Mostly bait markets for octopus here. We are working to develop more local food markets for the ones we catch, but we do let a lot go free. They are really cool creatures and we kinda have a soft spot for them. LOL. 2a. We are working on doing some catch/ clean and cook videos. We will try to sprinkle a few in here and there with different species as we catch them. 3. We spend a fair amount of time direct marketing our fish, shipping to wholesale/ retail markets and also direct to the consumer. Paper work seems to be never ending. Boat projects, upgrades, maintenance. The rest of the time just spending it together as a family. Working around the house, gardening, hiking and enjoying the outdoors and life. 4. Absolutely. This is devastating the commercial fishing industry across America. Small boat, family fishing operations in particular. We have seen a huge drop in ex-vessels prices as buyers are uncertain of the future and are paying less for product or just not buying. We have concern about our local processor continuing to process our catch, and are trying to get our own facility online (add to the #3). Shipping is being impacted locally with the bankruptcy of one of Alaska's air carriers and the closure of our freight terminal in Kodiak (hopefully temporary). So I think we are really just another entry on a very long list of industries, small businesses and individuals impacted by this. If there was ever a time to try to support your small businesses throughout America this is it. We will make it through this as a nation and a world, it will just take time. Thanks for the questions and be safe and healthy!

I know this video is a year old but this job is very interesting to me. How would I go about working on a boat like this?

This is a great video. I am a fisherman catching fish in Korea. What bait do you use there?

It was mostly salmon and pollock. A little squid and cod also.
