Huge 20kg plus Blue Groper solo. EP4

I hike into a new spot I've never fished before. I can't catch as much variety of fish as I wanted too but there's heaps of western​ blue groper and I manage a new PB at 108cm
The big one was caught using rock crabs for bait
This is the gear I was using:
- CTS GT Fight rod pe6-8 9ft by JC customs
-Shimano Stella 20000
-80LB Tasline, 170 or 200LB Varivas leader
WARNING Rock fishing is dangerous.
Don't try to replicate this kind of roped in fishing

[@gidosfishingadventures]

If your the person that placed that rock on the log let me know. You never know it’s a small world! and I doubt it washed itself there. If the like the video give my channel a subscribe. Cheers

[@lisah6451]

Could you tell me what that big ring with the large hooks on it to pull the fish up the cliff is called. And where can a person buy one.

[@hytak18]

@@lisah6451 it's called a cliff gaff.

[@rodneysmart9774]

It's been too rough for too long where I'm at so I'm living through your vids. Thanks loads.

[@VloggerJohn]

Watched every single video you posted and i love them. I am a big fan of you and your strategies. You inspired me to start a fishing channel by my own. Thank you 😍😍

[@TheSagerider]

That gaff is genius! When you are with your buddy at the very least there would be someone who could tell your family what happened if you disappeared. Absolutely love your videos!

[@mikeblitzen]

wow! great idea with the safety harness! also, ive never seen that gaff before and never seen a huge piece of crab used like that for bait! awesome!!!

[@BillyBob-tt7hy]

[@aaz1522]

peh power!!! terbaik bro

[@sallute]

That's the most unusual fishing video I've ever seen. The big blue fish looked amazing. I was slightly tense watching it though, and concerned for your safety. Bare feet, on high rocks, and catching huge fish. Looked a bit dangerous, but a video that's totally unique.

[@gidosfishingadventures]

I’m tied in because it was wet and slippery. It would be extremely dangerous without a rope fishing such a high slippery ledge

[@danieltown348]

what a hard place to fish. good job. never seen a blue grouper before but live in tropics .

[@huanghuang5545]

Hello, may I ask which stainless steel hook you used to buy, I want to buy one, I am now in California,

Beautiful Groper, lovely eating, well done bud...

[@markvines7308]

Awesome fish! I'm on the Spencer Gulf, blue groper here are strictly off limits. I must admit to being a little jealous, I would love to try a fillet..... subscribed 👍🎣

[@gidosfishingadventures]

They are pretty good eating, nice white flesh, the big ones can be a bit dry and chewy especially if you cook them too long but can be great eating if you cook them just right. The Nannygai or bight red fish you could catch from boats around there are my favourite eating thou👌🏼👌🏼

[@markvines7308]

@@gidosfishingadventures I have to travel a couple of hours if I want to find Nannygai. My local fish that are most targeted would be King George Whiting and the big Red Snapper here in the Gulf, some people love fishing for Salmon as well. Sweet channel... I've got some catching up to do🐟

That s fantastic ! is there any video in witch you tell us haw do you cook it ? Thank you

[@richardsuter2816]

Great effort bro , that was one hike Tight lines

[@ChampaBayBeast]

Awesome video. Have you tried any of the grouper from Florida? Is the blue grouper similar if you have? We fish off big ass rock jetty here but nothing like y'all! Love it man keep it up Also, we use what we call here a drop net so we can release our fish that were never allowed to keep and healthy. It's a circle about a meter wide with a drop net woven around it and a long add rope. Mainly use it for bridge fishing but it might be better than your gaff

[@gidosfishingadventures]

yes ive seen them, that would be great but we have lots of barnacles on the rocks here so a net gets stuck easily. I have a net on a long pole but its hard to use from high up

[@siwarplanet8739]

whats that thing in bottom if the fish the get out when you catch them ?

[@gidosfishingadventures]

Swim bladder

[@AbdelBobdir]

I need that thing to raise the fish , good job man

[@lisah6451]

That's what I just said. I asked him what it was called and where to buy one

[@AbdelBobdir]

@@lisah6451 I don't know the name in English lol But it is good for fishing from higher altitudes

[@lisah6451]

@@AbdelBobdir thank you so much for replying to my comment. I heard someone call it a cliff gaff so I looked that up and found it. We salmon and steelhead fish off of a 40 foot cliff so that would come in so handy. I'm going to order one and see how good it works for them.

[@joshhelcel9724]

Have you ever considered using a firearm like a .22 to dispatch fish at water level? Seems like that'd be much easier than trying to net or gaff them live from the top of a cliff. Great content. Subscribed...

[@gidosfishingadventures]

We can’t use firearms in Australia like some other countries. I’d get in a lot of trouble even carrying a .22 around with me in national parks

[@mawfish1]

Gaffing it, dragging it and bashing around on the rocks and chucking it back so you can keep fishing is just wrong. You removed most of its protective slime and gave it nice injuries and wounds for infection. Great job.

[@arianzaw7187]

Mind telling me the spot? I’m in Albany for 2 days

[@gidosfishingadventures]

Sorry no can do. Conditions look decent tomorrow. If your after groper go fish somewhere fairly remote and use rock crabs as bait. Stay safe 👍🏼

[@carrieeasley3995]

Nice fish!

[@victorvandyke9898]

Too much PT just getting there. What if you wanted to keep a fish? Drag it back up with you?

[@gidosfishingadventures]

Did u watch the whole video? I filleted the fish before I carry it out

[@ryansmithza]

That fishing looks great but walking around barefoot on those wet rocks in such an isolated location really doesn't look all that safe! I saw you slipping and sliding at one point and if you hurt yourself you're going to be in a world of problems and others are going to have to risk their own safety to help you. Take care out there.
