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

Ahoy Fisho's, This week I try to tackle the ANGRIEST fish in the ocean SOLO, in a small boat, 60km Offshore! That's right I'm back to try and have another go at the might blue marlin. Luckily the weather is a lot better this week and as it goes to show the fish are very much on the chew as well! It doesn't take too long at all before the first reel of the day starts howling!
Of course, there's always time for a cheeky deep drop or two once the trolling is done! Hope you enjoy the episode guys!

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.

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

Epic achievement

[@Sexyduffman420]

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.

No Sammy I dont think that2nd one was a Striped. I didnt see the markings on him. I’m pretty sure that was justa juvie Blue. I could be wrong but I think that was another Blue mate! Either way it was still a badass marlin! Stripies usually dont get real thick like he was. Usually long and slender and at that size the stripes are clearly visible. Anyway……great catch mate!😎👍

I’m pretty sure it was a stripe mate, the dorsal fin, bill and pec fins were the give away. Either way still good fun! 🍻
