Sammy, I think what I enjoy most about your channel is the sheer variety. Trolling, vibing, baits, surf, rock, estuary - it doesn’t seem to matter which type of fishing it is, you’re into it and present it beautifully. I also really enjoy the catch/clean/cook vids that you do, too!! Two thumbs up, brother!! Enough blowing smoke up your bum, just wanted to let you know I appreciate what you do. : )

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Appreciate it mate! I just love to fish, doesn’t matter what it is, I’ll try catch it 😂💪💪

[@henrycatchesfish]

What a great comment! Couldn’t have worded it better 👍🏻

[@headfirsttryingtoskydive1052]

Not that slug, this slug 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Pure legend banter

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

😂😂😂 just had to clarify 🤷‍♂️

[@fishinfool3795]

Yank here. Love this channel. I love to catch a very wide variety of fish species throughout the year. I cannot imagine your videos being more entertaining sir! I look forward to what Sammy's doing next!! Always so much fun to watch. Happy chewing mate!!

[@davidgc4396]

Best and only way to fish. Love beach fishing especially with live baits😊

[@A.CFishingextreme]

love it Sammy I so want to meet you onetime out in Morton bay❤❤❤

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

I’m sure I’ll run into you out there sooner or later mate 🍻🍻

[@MrAcuta73]

It's refreshing seeing someone surf fishing in, you know, surf. Seems like all I ever see is someone standing beside what looks like a slightly energetic lake, not the ocean. Where you are looks like home to me even though I'm half a planet away. LOL In fact? My son is right now fishing the "surf" in S. Korea....and it looks like a lake in the pics he's sending me. Though I'm not sure if he's on the Yellow Sea or Pacific side. Guessing Yellow Sea.

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Hahah thanks mate! Yeah can’t get good weather all the time. When it’s rough you just have to keep battling the conditions! Hope you son is still catching a few! Thanks for watching 🍻🍻

[@benturton3358]

Cheers Sammy!

[@jonnyayres1269]

Love your work Sammy thanks as always for sharing. Would you possibly do a 2 minute chat on rigging up the stinger; what size hook and swivel, and are they just through the terminal split ring? 🙏

[@Tenorsaurus]

Nice work from the rocks there. I've battled many Kingfish, tuna, snapper, tailor Aussie salmon etc from the rocks down south and every fish you get up onto dry land is one to celebrate. It's hard work and fking dangerous. Having left a spot because it got too rough only the hear on the news later on that someone died in the same spot hours after I left. Keep your eyes on the water all the bloody time.

[@jaar8320]

Love the surf fishing man, the tailor stocks seem to have been getting even better after those years of massive bags taken on Fraser back in the day. Hopefully their numbers really bounce back on the east coast and maybe we’ll have a fishery to rival the westerners cheers

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

That would be the dream wouldn’t it! Be nice if they stopped getting netted and we saw more of the big boys getting around In the future!

[@UniNileChaser]

Cracking video mate

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Thanks mate! 🍻🍻

[@johnlighton7025]

Nice. Here in south Africa they called elf or shad. Best eating fish. Really good in a smoker. Also hunt in the foam here too. Nice video

[@ollieatdalby]

thanks for the videos Sammy,if I may enquire where that rock ledge is ? keep up the great work cheers

[@kanemartin7291]

Sammy, I'm sure you get this suggestion a lot but we would love to see some freshwater fishing around some dams in seq.

[@bradleybackhouse1592]

This might be a stupid question but is there any chance of doing a tackle talk or a how to video on rig a stinger hook to a knight jig/ spinner or other metal jig/ spinners and what you use to or the best stuff to use to do it?

[@lovingburnettheads2190]

Well done champ. Difficult filming situations. Cheers

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Haha yeah surf and rock fishing is always a challenge to film! So much noise!

[@AlexanderCzarnecki]

interesting little hook setup here, might have to try it

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

Just another line of defense that one, some days makes absolutely no difference though 😂

[@user-td6kn3lr3l]

Another great session ! Can’t find that brain spike tool you’re using - could you include the name or a link ? Thanks mate !

[@HAZ006218]

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

These ones are just the standard Wilson fishing waders! 👌

[@turbostyler]

Anyone know where this ledge is?

[@-dystopic-]

Where abouts are you from Sammy? I’ve been trying to work it out from the fish you target, but I’ve only been able to narrow it down so much & I’d love to know!

[@SammyHitzkeFishing]

South East QLD mate 👍👍

[@-dystopic-]

@@SammyHitzkeFishing I thought that might have been the case. Cheers for the reply!

[@Dantt82]
