In Search of Monsters! Deep Sea Fishing off East London South Africa (Warning, Sea Sickness Shown!)

[@Lion.EL5201]

Thanks for a great video! Good on you for toughing it out through the day!!! Lovely looking day for deep sea fishing!

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks

[@brucealmighty6442]

Nice outing, when the sharks arrive..time to move

[@antonhuman8446]

Always a first time. Great going!

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks Anton!

[@rooikatadventures441]

Ah that sweet sing of a kp

[@jmjm1920]

Nice big fish 🐟 a bit different from our red snapper in NZ 👍

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks! Those snappers look awesome though!

[@winstonenglish285]

Some nice Kob there I'm glad you didn't edit out the seasick part makes it more natural and true to life what works for me is one travel sickness pill the night before and one travel sickness pill first thing in the morning I'm not saying this will work for everyone but for me it works a charm Down here on the south coast of kzn you can hardly land a fish without the tax man taking all but the head. Those boat Motors are like a dinner Bell and don't think you can pack up and go somewhere else, they follow you until you stop. They are monsters!!! one chowed my 16 kg Tuna in one bite and left me with the head You certainly seem to get around! keep the videos coming Tight lines!!!

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks! Yes some nice kobs, next time will definitely be taking some meds before going out! Luckily for us the tax man wasn’t on duty that day🤣🤣 but last time in moz he was in the prowl! Thanks for your support!

[@andrewwight6875]

Nice to see what you call Cob my South African friends here have spoken of them. Great Video

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks a lot! Yes cob are very special here in SA

[@differentfins]

That's looks like so much fun. Those reels are badass! How much line will fit on a reel like that I wonder.

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

They are really cool! Can fit tons of line!

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

To prevent sea sickness keep the stomach happy by eating little bits of biltong as you fish.

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Sounds like a good idea

[@leonskein8584]

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

No my friend just took us out.

Looks like fun Josh 💪🏼David was the same when we went to moz in August 😂

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks Jack yeah it’s lots of fun! I can feel David’s pain 🤣 hopefully we get to fish together between November and February!

[@mornevanschalkwyk752]

been out deep sea before a few times. are Octopus no good for black steenbras

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Yes they are good, but we already had enough bait

[@andre51286]

The fastest cure for seasick at sea is to juno in the water between the motors, your balance senses between ears will reset in a minute or 2

[@werftv4580]

nice work.. skinny boats can get you sick for sure..

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Thanks! Yes next time tablets are a must

[@chubwi14]

How deep were you fishing Josh?

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Think it must have been around 20 meters, I can’t remember exactly.

[@connorherman8789]

Can U take me out deep sea I really love fishing and I got my own deep sea rod and reel and I haven't been able to use it yet fishing is like my whole life and I live close to the harbour 🐟🎣

[@rupertmcnaughtdavis3649]

Once you've caught on a KP reel,all others are boring.

[@antonhuman8446]

Scarborough reel. What a murderous contraption on the operating end. Also "Skaap rib" Sheeps rib. In Afrikaans.

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Yes

[@clentcharra953]

Great video the sea sick got me laughing I always tell guys to eat canned sardines for breakfast so if they do throw up it's good chum. The octopus was your best bait next time remove a leg before you throw it back.

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Haha the sardines is an excellent idea! 🤣🤣 yes I’ve heard octopus is great bait!

[@hstetser5376]

Those are some strange reels..

[@calvinodriscoll9855]

They called Scarborough reels or koelie pully

[@zubsbhamjee]

@@calvinodriscoll9855 lol @koelie pulley

[@ThisisAfricaOutdoors]

Yes very strange, my first time using them actually🤣🤣

[@mikespencer4922]

When catching a decent size fish on a scarborough, the fishing is real. No clutches or brakes or gear multiply'ers. Hard work but great fun.
