Fishing in a dinghy at Port Douglas about 50 years ago was the most amazing experience, caugt something with every cast,grandfather not happy cause he had to fillet them.
@fishybusiness73 really? I haven't been back for nearly 50 years, he went fishing one day and never made it home,boat flipped and he hung on with his buddy for about 8 hours then just let go,he must of had a heart attack,his mate got rescued,a friend said his picture is in a pub with the 932lb marlin he caught but I can't remember the name of the pub
@MilesDeep3r yeah I reckon he wanted some but was maybe just a little small to make the first move. Maybe he was just confused at how quickly the fish was headed to the surface. It's an interesting insight into shark behaviour anyway!
Great footage
Terrific job love seeing what’s down there ❤
thanks mate I'll be doing some more footage in the future

Mint footage, thank you 👍
@@Biglukedozerlife70 thanks mate glad you like it
What was the bait? Stood up to a lot of punishment from the pickers!!
@robinaboy bait was slabs of fresh trevally. Generally fresh fish will hold together a lot better than frozen
Can see the size limit on coral trout works
@@tom__mac couple of decent ones down there that's for sure!
That shark wanted a piece as well 😄
