Nothing like big Yellowfins! Some of my best fishing trips were down in Cabo Mx catching Yellowfins Wahoo and both Striped and Blue Marlin. Thats big time fishing right there! Great job guys. Brings back some awesome memories!😎👍👍

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Jeez that’s a great combo of fish! Thanks for watching mate!! 🍻🍻

[@jayjohnson9668]

@@SammyHitzkeFishing I didnt get them all in one trip but usually 2-3 on most trips. Cabo is excellent offshore fishing without having to go very far out. 5-10 miles and you are in 1000’ plus water! Keep up the great content Sammy.😎👍👍

Hahah cheers mate! Wasn’t letting that one fall off the hooks that for sure!

[@davewatson3398]

Wow, watching you land the big tuna had me nervous. Holding the spreader, hand steering the fish was fraught with risk, so glad when us landed it. Congrats Sammy 👍

[@terrytailor]

Well that was an epic video lads! Thanks for the laughs and some great fishing. Ps. The poke bowls and sashimi were top shelf. Thanks Sam.

Great feed there fellas!! Some good variety, it’s a bugger the big yellowfin didn’t want to play the game a bit more! Well done 👍🎣

Are striped tuna the same as what we call skipjack tuna?

Thanks very much! Appreciate it!! Yes, striped tuna are the same as skipjacks 👌👌

[@EastCoast_Mayhem]

cracking video mate!

[@benno2323]

Petition for Shauno to be in all your vids, you guys make the best content together, wether it's 4wd missions or fishing. On a side note are you guys too young to know who Stuart Diver is? With all your nicknames for things I am surprised a diver isn't called a Stuey.

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Hey mate, hahaha it would be nice but Shauno is a busy man with all his 4x4ing trips! Hahah hadn’t thought of that with the diver, we’ll see if it catches on!

[@randywelsh2692]

Good to see you guys got some oil into that teak, good job. The Mojo looks stunning.

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Hahah I think that was just the rain mate, not sure your meant to oil teak are you??

[@marktuttle8226]

Great job out there fresh fish yum. My biggest fish was in Cabo a Blue Marlin at 250 pounds. Very good eating and gave away the rest to people that needed food.

Those large Skipjacks are prized in Hawai'i and are called Otaro. Better tasting sashimi then the yellowfins.

[@Antipodean33]

Excellent fish but I thought our big Southern Bluefins were the most sought after, especially the ones we used to see down here in South Oz back when I was a kid

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

I reckon tuna in general would be the most sought after species 👌👌

hey mate! who do you go through to get some taxidermy done? great video. We landed a 140kg blue in about 600 off the cape the other day!

[@mikemulrooney4574]

Nice trip!! Suprised u guys are not keeping the boats momentum in and out of gear while you fought those fish to keep them where u want them especially in the end game

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Hey mate, we most certainly do, we position the boat as required and also use it to help bring fish up or pull them down current… unless both of us are hooked up then it’s dead boating 👌

[@arabarran]

That tuna REALLY wanted to stay in the ocean! What a crazy battle... Btw, why are you not keeping Striped tuna?

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

We kept the first one, just didn’t need anymore after we had the yellowfin!
