MASSIVE 44.2kg / 97lb Grouper (Bass) from a Kayak - It took two of us to pull it on board!
มุมมอง 2.7K6 หลายเดือนก่อน
On Saturday I landed one of my proudest catches to date - a 44.2kg bass. These fish are typically caught in depths of 200-350m, meaning the chances of catching one on a kayak in New Zealand are exceptionally slim. However, that challenge is what excites me about game fishing from a kayak! I've spent countless hours on the water targeting hapuka and bass and returning home unsuccessful. However ...

Well it's been a long time coming... after putting in some serious mahi deep water slow pitch jigging, I've landed the chunky grouper I was chasing.

nice brother! the old @olliecraig kayak set up👌 weve been getting some BIg Boys last few weeks over in Aus, best numbers ive seen for many years! especially the baby ones! great signs for the future. great vid!
@@Swandivein cheers man! Good to hear they're thriving
Hey man, im looking into getting a kayak. How much did your model cost and do you know where i can get one? Cheers.
Dont knock the old chicken for bait. It works great.
Love the vids bro! Love fishing out at kawakawa bay man it’s so calm there. Just subbed to the channel ❤
What pound line did you use
Good work, bloody awesome edit!!
Wow where is that?
Hokianga by the looks
The slammer 4 also has the back up anti reverse.
Great video. How do you get to this spot?
Tu meke bro..just beautifill
Mega shot at the end
My man ❤
Well done mate. can you share the coordinates 😁
Cheers mate! I don't usually give out my spots, but since you asked -35.7203722888089, 174.32139592772978
@@gpfishingadventures7834 hope that doesn’t take me to the pub by the weighing station 😂
@@Jetprofishlife no, an even better spot 😂
@@gpfishingadventures7834 😂😂
Wow, that's a ways out! We fish Pacific Northwest rocks for ling cod in big swell ,7ft max. Our Albacore are not in reach by kayak in Oregon. You put in the work to get yours for sure!
Thanks mate! For me it's all about earning the catch. When all the hard yards pay off it's a great feeling.
A good New Zealand spear fishing video. Good snaps.
Thanks mate!
great haul with the spear gun that pb snapper is a nice size fish, u worked very hard to get that perfect shot. a shame you lost the chance on the kingfish. so annoying that they tease you and dash off.
Cheers Peter!
Great video mate! You were a little unlucky with the kings as mentioned we where doing well on the yaks behind you and they were pack hitting our live bait. Great work on the Pb nice to see how those bigger snaps move and feed from under the water!
Was also great to have a catch-up on the water…. Fun meeting like minded crazy addicted yakers!
@@KingsWithAndy cheer man! Yeah bit unlucky not to run into more kings out there, but that's just how it goes sometimes. The snapper made up for it at least. Tight lines 🤙🏽
Awesome! When you have a bad shot in a snapper it is often best to let them run and find a place to park up in the kelp/rocks then you can dive on them and grab them. your shot didn't look too bad either by the way, it had gone through a lot of fish!
Cheers! I had that exact thought when editing the footage. I probably could have let it find its way to the bottom and swum down and grabbed it. Will keep that in mind for the future!
Amazing video! Made my evening 😊 A question you probably have heard a lot, but I couldn’t find anything specific on your channel. What kayak do you have? I have been fishing of my kayak quite successful lately as well and was thinking to update to one with foot paddles to make my missions not that big of a struggle for my arms anymore… would be great to know your setup (kayak, foot paddles etc.) Cheers 😊
Thanks mate! I pedal an Old Town Predator PDL. They're made by the same manufacturer of Ocean Kayaks. I love mine to bits. Mine is pretty stock standard. The only changes I have made is replace the stock pedals with some mountain bike ones. I think the larger surface area, and sturdiness of them makes for improved pedal performance. It's not a necessity though. These are great kayaks out of the box. And yes, the pedal-based kayaks take a lot of pressure off the upper body, which means more energy for pulling in those fish! Cheers!
Thx heaps! Keep up with the amazing content you put out 😊
Beauty, congrats on the pb mate!! what a great haul. Still yet to even see a kingfish or a snapper while shorediving in the lower north no access to a boat and I told myself I was going to either catch or spear a kingi this year. Feel like it would be a northern mission. Thanks for the quality content man loving it!
Cheers mate! Not sure how far South you are, but they sure are plentiful up these ways at the moment - might be worth the drive!
based in Wellington good to see and hear they are still hanging around up there. Any areas you would recommend shore diving from?@@gpfishingadventures7834
Good to hear & see that they are still around. Based in Wellington are there any areas in particular you would recommend for a kingi shoredive@@gpfishingadventures7834

Wow, wicked fish! Well done mate
Thanks mate!
Sick video, and the sesh merch, i have a bit myself haha
haha cheers man! good spotting!
You legend man. Let’s get the kingfisher out there ;)
Let's do it 👊🏽
bloody legend mate. i worry that the video doesn't do justice to just how much of an achievement this is. your over 15km off shore and just say 'yea about 3hours paddle' like its nothing. i think some shots just showing how your in the middle of absolutely nowhere would help show just how much of a unit you are. Fish of a lifetime, congratulations!
Thanks mate!!! Yeah she's a long way out on the ol yak. Worth it though!
Absolute legend! 🤯
Thanks!
Dude that is an incredible fish! So stoked for you, a great reward for all the hard work you put into these missions!
Thanks brother. Still feels bloody unreal to have landed this monster in so shallow!
its a good thing old town kayaks have high weight capacity cause those were some big fish you pulled up haha. that bass was enormous as! no doubt ur best deepwater fish.
Absolutely!
Greg, you bloody wild thing....that was unbelievable. Geeze that fish was e-nor-mouse!!! You deserve all the congratulations coming g your way.
Thanks Rob!! It was a bloody sight to see when it finally breached. Such a cool experience
Absolute beast mate, well done 🙌
Thanks!
Excellent New Zealand kayak fishing video. Big paddle and giant fish.
Cheers!
Bloody fantastic effort mate. Thats a beast of a fish. " You are crazy- you know that"
Hahah cheers!
What an exceptional catch on the kayak, man!! Massive achievement 👏 💯💯
Thanks heaps!
That's legend status right there!
Thanks mate!
How exciting, what an achievement great vid 👊🏽

Far out! Your mate was like an angel😹😹😹😹
You're not wrong brother! Would've been in trouble without him there!

Hi, can someone here give an educated guess on the 6500 model? I'm looking forward to went fishing for cod and halibut in the north of norway in a few weeks, and i need a reel with capabilities to fish pelargic in very deep depths AND also trolling shallow under the surface and in all depths in mid-water. In other words, I'm looking for a durable allrounder for sea fishing.. recommendations? thx
Enhorabuena. Magnífico combate con final feliz.
