Tackling the ANGRIEST fish in the ocean 60km Offshore…. SOLO!

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

G’day Legends!! Hope you enjoy this one 💪💪 Don’t forget all of the SHF is available from www.sammyhitzkefishing.com 🍻🍻🍻

[@ThePracticalBeekeeperMelbourne]

Love the shows Sammy, just wondering why you don't wear a lifejacket, solo and so far from shore? Safety first brother!

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

@@ThePracticalBeekeeperMelbourne Hey Mate, I was wearing a lifejacket the whole time. It’s the thing around my waist and the little yellow rectangle is PLB. If you check out the video I did last week I went through all the safety gear I use on solo trips. It’s at the end of the video 👍

[@pablo_jeffscobar_8988]

Anyone else notice Sammy’s inner Steve Irwin come out when he realised he’s got to do what he can to get that Marlin healthy again? Well done Legend!

[@kirkwoolston6932]

100% mate. Love that.

[@aussieswatching3135]

Agree, can’t understand why he doesn’t have more subs.. such a great channel.

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Appreciate it legends! Was great to see him swim off strongly after a bit of TLC 🍻🍻

[@pearcebrown1043]

Epic trip out mate! The way you looked after those marlin is commendable. Loved how you picked up that plastic too mate!

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Appreciate it mate! Gotta do you bit to keep our backyard neat and tidy 🍻🍻

[@slipperybeastaviationfishingsh]

Amazing video Sammy. Wow 2 Marline, grouper and snapper. Thank you so much for having us feel that we are out there with you. I enjoyed the video fully. Greetings from USA 🇺🇸

[@SoloAngler]

Filming solo is bloody hard Sammy. Congrats on the box ticking and the great entertainment. Love it !!!

[@tadhghayden8440]

Expertly handled...well done.....cleaning the ocean as well....cool....u did super well recovering that fish.... masterful.... really.....

[@DixieNormus420]

Your channel is so cool man. I wish I could get down there and fish those waters again. Went there one time as a kid but only used a hand reel on a trashy tourist fishing operation. The reel was ripped from my tiny hands by the first decent fish i hooked. Did my first scuba dive too off the great barrier reef and saw thousands of hammerhead sharks swimming in a school they must have been migrating or something. It was majestic. One of the coolest things I've ever seen.

[@lesstalkmorefishing1000]

Epic adventure again! You're mastering these marlin solo trips mate! And the fact that you can do some great deep fishing in the spare time, so so jealous

[@michaelcameron8855]

Love it! Also love seeing your Sea Hunt catching marlin. They are built about 10 minutes from my house. Crazy to think one of them made it to fish with you down under! Best of luck and tight lines!

[@HughJazz69696]

by any standard, for those of us who enjoy fishing, this was a world class day, congrats!!!

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Thanks mate! Very grateful with how it turned out! Cheers! 🍻🍻

Hi ya ,that fish was def a Stripey ,for future reference check out the area under the lower jaw that goes back to the gills ,With blues that area is way shorter than Stripey's and Blacks ,it also is a gun metal color . Great catching!!!

Nice work Sammy, we got dollies, striped marlin and a heap of pink ling last week from the deep, it’s so good when it all comes together.

I think risking your drone on those early shots picked cinematic points back for you....cool to see the lure bubble trails from the air, ticked the box even if it was timelapse...hey, it saved editing time

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Hahah thanks mate! Always scary doing the drone out there. Getting it back solo is interesting 🤣🤣

in another video you used a three hook rig with all three hooks going in one bait i was wondering how you set up the rig. I plan on using it on a smaller scale in fresh water for a particularly picky fish.
