Thank you thank you !!!
Really enjoying all the videos. Especially how you tell what lure they ate. Keep keeping it real!!
Thank you !!!
Just saw video with Joe Yee on board that had to be awesome fishing with him. Found you through GZ lures and watch videos at gym in morning.@@waterman241
Since you are doing to some bait and switch techniques, can you show us how your rig lures as teasers without hooks, and rigging baits and/or lures to pitch.
love your Videos buddy" great camara work!! its always Cool when you start rolling from your truck n letting us know how the day looks n the people your taking out n where they are from. lost a nice one" last month in Huatulco!! we had a great tournament lots of fish, winning fish was over 500lb. good size for Huatulco, our average fish are between 250 n 350 blacks n blues. keep up the great work Chris
I mention it before but the outrigger drops and the Benefit over just straight to the clip.
Howzit Chris! Good job in putting together your videos. I can only imagine how much time you put into editing it. What’s your favorite direction of current in Kona? I’m a Small boat guy trying to learn some tricks. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for watching and I appreciate the comment. As per current I don’t really have a favorite current I just have spots I favor on the current but basically any current that is pushing in a little is good. Consistent current more so is what I want to see. If I had to pick just one current though I guess north and in current just because there are alot of big fish spots that turn on with that. Good luck out there !! Catch um
Need more videos!!!! Lol
Working on one right now. Will be done by next week. Been one of the worst fishing seasons I’ve had here in kona so getting good content I feel worth of putting into EP has been hard.
Got a good one coming though. Thanks for watching
@@waterman241 that’s crazy. One of the best off the NC coast this year.
Hi Chris,
thanks for the vids, condolences and kind wishes to the Hawaiians who have been affected by the fires.
Gods speed to them.
Re content. One thing we like watching is the leadering of the large fish, any talk through of leadering techniques, hand wraps etc would be interesting. Leadering big fish is highly dangerous activity and Im in awe of some skilled guys. Thanks man.
Thank you so much and appreciate the message. Will work on getting a bit more content like that too. All the best
Hey Chris, thoughts are with you and the islands with the fires brother. One thing I’d be interested in seeing is your prep list and spares you keep on board. The prep and boat readiness are a huge part to fishing success IMO and although it’s not content bringing big fish boat side, I would find it really interesting. Thanks for the hard work you put in. Tight lines bro.
Thanks for the video Chris, Ive been a mate charter fishing on the east coast for two years. I quit my 9 to 5 to try fishing for a living. The end of the video hit home for me. I've had multiple opportunities on Blue Marlin and finally got my hands on one this year. There's no better feeling. Keep the videos coming.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the vid. Appreciate it man and good going on the blue marlins. Stoked for ya, Keep it up !!!!
Interesting stuff I’m on the east coast of Australia. Keen on how you sharpen your hooks and talk about your seasons and how the were the fish are what bait they are eating and if you match the hatch. Talk about the types of lures and heads and why you use them and where. The set up on the dredge n teaser look interesting and how you work them. Tips on catching marlin on small and big boats. Speed. What to look for on your sounder and settings on sounder.
Hope this helps with thinning of content.
Thank you and some great ideas for me to go out into some episodes here in the offseason while I have time to start rolling out a bunch of episodes. Appreciate it !
Boat tour
Thanks we will do that in next Ep
Hey Chris, enjoyed the vid. I’d like to see more how to content on spooling reels, topshots, drag settings, boat handling once hooked up, marking line and how you attach them to the riggers.
Thanks I’ll put something together on that
Good morning, in this episode toward the end (after the hurricane) you discussed “finding the current” and how it seemed to be all over the place. What are you watching on the water or looking for to “find the current”? Can you please explain/elaborate a little? Is this unique to Hawaiian waters or trolling for pelagics in general? I’m in Guam and have been running a boat for a few weeks and would love to add a few tools to my toolbox, thanks!
No worries, Basically here in kona we have local currents that can stay at a certain direction for part of the coast. When the current is consistent all up and down an area then the bait gets stacked up in certain areas where as if the current is switching often. Like one direction for awhile then switches to another then fades off then moves around again. It makes it hard for the bait to congregate and it makes it hard for the fish to find them
Hi Chris i really like ur video's. I got a question if you have to pull a spread in rough conditions what would it be?
Regards Eddie
Thanks for watching Eddie, in the rough I would use a bunch of cup faced, scoop faced and flat faced lures. Bart blue breakfast or a bonze violator, a moms craft wide range or tantrum AMN, aloha lures sundowner and mongo and beauty would all be top choices and also aloha lures xl deep six. You could probably get away with some large bullets too depending on how rough. Hard to beat a tantrum large bullet or Koya 9+. Those are the style of lures I would recommend. You might also be able to get a plunger or even poi dog in the water but you would really need to mess around with positioning and if it got really rough they wouldn’t run right. You don’t want the lures jumping out of the water or skipping down the face. Good luck with it ! Hope that helps a little
@@waterman241 Thank you very much Chris this will help a lot. The water of the Canary Islands can get pretty rough sometimes.
In quite some video's of you I see you catch marlin on a lure that has a light greenish colour. What colour is that if i may ask?
And ur welcome Chris i like it how you put ur video's out there. Very informative.
Best regards Eddie
Are y'all able to live bait during any of the tournament or is it strictly artificial
Do you think you will ever get sonar on your little boat
I’m currently looking for an investor or a way to get one. Kona is fastly becoming a place where if you don’t have one you just almost better of sitting at the dock. I’ve had so many sonar boats steal fish from me this year it is mind boggling. I’ll be working an area by myself movwing the lawn tight on structure waiting for her to eat and they will see me inside and come in mark the one in there drive over it’s head and catch it. Very frustrating. Is what it is hopefully I can get one one on the benchmark
@@waterman241 we had to upgrade on some of our Electronics this year as well I guess you have to keep up with everybody else to stay competitive I pretty much like all of your episodes I pretty much like all of your episodes I think you and your mate doing awesome job he's very good on the back of that boat
@@waterman241Doesn’t the Furuno Omni cost about $120,000 or more!? That’s some serious change for an owner operator like yourself.
