Black Marlin Fishing from Kayaks -- Australia Ep 5 | Field Trips with Robert Field

- In the 5th and final episode from the Australia leg of this trip, we're giving one last crack at a black marlin from the kayaks. The week has been tough, with nothing but sharks attacking our baits. Despite that, this trip has taught me that fishing isn't about the fish; it's about the people that this sport brings together.
The real harvest from Australia has been the new friendships formed and old bonds strengthened. This is what fishing is REALLY about.
COMMENT BELOW and tell me about a fishing trip you had that didn't go like you hoped! Who's excited for the New Zealand series and some REAL fishing action? It's going to be INSANE!

Man I just binged watched like 3 hours worth of episodes!! Lol
Dude, seriously, what makes your videos so great is your story lines. They keep your fans hooked. So in essence you are always catching bro!!! Keep it up. And hope to see you in August.
Thanks for the kind words brother, glad you guys are enjoying it!
Robert I think what I enjoy or rather why I enjoy your adventures is that you know it isn't just about fishing. I started an organization in Canada that introduces wounded Soldiers to fly fishing for their physical and spiritual rehabilitation.
One day I brought two new Corporals to fish with a Major who lost both legs in Afghanistan. They started talking and kept talking and I sat and shut up. After an hour and a half the Major (rank counts for nothing there) looked at me and said "Geez our rods never came out of the cases? Then he paused and said, "This isn't about fishing is it."
I smiled and turned because I am humbled by these men and women and I shed tears every day, not out of sympathy for our soldiers, but out of anger that it cost gas money and some time to change lives and theirs was not the only life changed.
Fishing is healing, building relationships and confidence. Nuff said.
Fishing has become less and less about catching fish for me. It has introduced me to so many incredible people and experiences. Great story man, thanks for doing what you’re doing. 👌🏼💪🏼👊🏼
You take me to places I Will never get to see or go . You don't know how much I love watching your videos.keep up the good work .
That's awesome Sam, thanks for following along!
That ending about the journey and people was 100 percent bang on, fish are just a bonus.
Totally man
It’s always the people. Even if you caught some awesome fish it wouldn’t matter if you guys didn’t look like you were having a good time. That’s what makes trips and videos worth it.
Totally man, glad you agree
Keep doing what you do Robert. Your adventures are more amazing every time! Your right. It's not always about the fish that you catch. It's about the great people that you meet while fishing. That's the common denominator that brings all those people together around you. What a wonderful life that you have created for yourself! Fish on!
Absolutely man! Thanks for following the journey Phil
Dude best trip yet. Felt like I was there bro. Thank you very much.
Over
Thanks Scott!
Who else has been stoked to see this part of the trip!? Absolutely epic!
Yes sir! New Zealand up next!
"It's a shark" all calm 😂😂😂
Just a big fish!
Brother this has to be one of your best videos. It is So Heartwarming. You’re right that you’re so Blessed and I want to thank you for taking us along. I have been living with you vicariously through your life watching your videos. Enjoying each and everyone but this particular one really touched me! What you do does touch us in a profound way. You are a great guy and I hope to meet some day. ❤Keep up the amazing work you do and God Bless you Robert. Love you Brother.
you don't loose money traveling and meeting new people! one of the best times of my life backpacking around the world and meeting new people.
Absolutely man. Everybody should do it to some extent.
This channel is so much better than a TV series or "Unreality" TV.
Thanks bro!
Rob Mate! You hit the nail on the head. Its taken me awhile to aswe realise that the fish are just a bonus and its the experience of chasing them and joys and lows of fishing is what its all about. Well done , you moved me man!
Thanks for the kind words, Dom! Glad you enjoyed it
Completely vibin with “people make places.” It’s not about the fish kilos it’s about the shared experiences with others! 🍻
Freaking Amazing Rob!!!! I think many would agree on here that we are just along for the adventure and it’s just a bonus if your catching fish. Like I said before, we are living our dreams through your eyes and are enjoying every moment of your trips. All we can say is Thank you!!! And that lightening storm at the end is Awesome!! It seems like it’s been a while since we’ve had that much here at home. I’d sleep like a baby in that. Safe travels wherever your at.
Thanks for the kind words brother, and for following along with the journey!
Catching fish or not you're still one of the most interesting shows to watch when the weather is too bad for me to fish myself. Also completely agree, I've met many amazing people through camping, kayaking and fishing. I'm always amazed how people come from all corners of a campsite when I start barbecuing fish 😂
Yep, exactly!
Recently just started kayak fishing, and because of that I have been on TH-cam researching my brains out and have loved coming across your Field Trips series. Love what you’re doing, love how you’re doing it and after watching this episode and the experiences you’ve had, it makes me even more proud to call myself an Australian! Keep up the incredible work!!
That’s awesome Chris. So sad for what’s been happening in your country. I will be back!! 🙌🏼
Life is a adventure enjoying the ride is most important you share your ride on TH-cam we basically get to live vicariously through your videos
So true man! It takes about 600 (!!!) yrs for fishing line untill it decays. Thanks for taking care of our environment!
Apart from that, I love your videos! Great stuff!
Cheers from Germany,
Matthias
You truly did the nail on the head when you said it's about the people you meet not the fish you catch. My dream is to be able to.do what you do and creat a story worth telling like you have. Keep up, you truly are an inspiration.
You nailed it. It is about the people catching a fish is a bonus! Envious of your experience.
Exactly
You call your show "Field Trips" and you are spot on with the title. Keep up the awesome work sharing the trip and not just fishing.
Thanks Shane!
Best fishing video without big fish I have seen in a while.
Thanks Christian, awesome to hear!
I laughed out loud too when you got spooked with driving , classic!
Hahaha he got me good
Rob you’ve done it again and this time was the best yet so far. Epic video and monolog. The direction that I think you’re heading is fantastic and you’re are 100% correct it’s not always about catching fish. I think yak anglers get that more than anybody else. Keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to NZ. Tight lines
Thanks brother! Luckily NZ has some epic adventure AND lots of fish!
Rewatching prolly a 3rd time.... fishing is awesome, I’ve done it my whole life... It’s my passion, for sure... but as time goes by, the thing I remember the least? The fish.... It’s the people you meet, the friends you make are who you remember forever.
Absolutely man. Glad you agree
Great work. Keep speaking about what touches your heart.
Thanks Sam
If you always just focus on the "trips" in Field Trips" you will always end up with epic stories like this, Rob.
True that!
You are correct. I have always thought that when I go fishing is to spend time with nature and people that I love. And like you said. To meet people that you will start a relationship of friendship
Exactly
Sooo glad I found your channel. You may not be catching the fish right now, but I am totally hooked!
Thanks and welcome, Jerry!
Awesome video. Completely agree with you about Australia - it's a fantastic place. Thanks for sharing with us Rob.
Just found your channel and I love it man. Australia seems like a awesome place with a awesome fishing community. Thanks for taking me where I can’t go myself.
Thanks for coming along on the journey and welcome to Field Trips, Jared!
You know fishing from a yak puts you at a disadvantage. You try to hit home runs you strike out sometimes. That’s way it so satisfying when you do catch that big fish from a yak. It took me until I was 28 years old before I caught my first yellowtail or king fish from my yak and I will never forget that day. You put the time and work in and you don’t give up it will pay off some day!
Totally man, couldnt agree more
This man should have millions of subs what get this man on the trending page or something
Haha thanks buddy. I'll just keep doing my thing and if people dig the content, the subs will come!
Dude got all Anthony Bourdain on this one. Loving it
Awesome episode and I think almost all of us that watch your channel feel the same way. My dad and I fly fish regularly with a guide in the high country in Yosemite. We’ve fished with him for over 15 years and never made a cast on the same body of water. I feel the same way you summed it up in this vid. I’m always so blown away with the beauty of the place that the fishing always ends up secondary to the experience of seeing new places and time on the water with my dad and friends. Great video and keep it up!
Absolutely man.
One of the best episodes even there was no fish to show! Awesome job Rob, can't wait for the NZ episodes!
Thanks man!!
Great Video!! You are absolutely right its about the People, and Places!! i was visiting Port Douglas in Northern Queensland Australia back in 2004,and the animals and fruit bats were so cool, and the people were the nicest and very hospitable and treated me like family. i really did'nt want to come back. pete.
I had the same feelings!
Share the whole experience. One of the best episodes yet.
Thanks Abram!
These are the videos that inspire me to travel even more than I already want to.
Get out there man!
@@YakFishField just waiting for the right time to do so, Los Buzos is high on my list to go to first!
Incredible Vid Rob !!! Your stories and fishing is what keeps us all watching. You are doing a wonderful Job. Keep the lines tight :)
Thanks Jason!
Rob, you said it at the beginning ( the fish are just a bonus ) thanks for taking us along.
It's so true man. Thanks for following along!
Favorite video of the series so far. Can’t wait to see what is to come!
It's about to take a turn for the fishy! Thanks man
Wow what an amazing experience! Very true that it is not always the fish you catch but the experiences along the way that make the trip a true adventure.
Absolutely man
I feel you Rob moderation there's a time to fish then a time to fellow ship together 🥃☮️
top of the line channel !!! some days the fish dont want to cooperate but overcoming days like that is what lead to grate days
very professional over all video ! people make places ...
Thanks for the kind words brother!
Love the message in the video. I think I, like the rest of us watching, are living through your experiences and travels. Keep up the awesome job!
Thanks Dennis!
Please share the whole experience!!!! definitely love the unique experiences and people you meet along the way! THAT's what will make your channel different than the others. we can all reel a fish in --but the experiences that happen between is what will make the difference! great job.
Absolutely man, glad you agree
I met people from Australia and New Zealand, everyone is super nice we can learn from them, kinda how most of us are here from the south, we will invite you to the house, offer food and drinks, but they are the type of people to give you the shirt off their backs, treat you like we've known you forever.
Yep, exactly!
Dude ! Catch fish or not ill watch your vids. By far my favorite TH-cam channel, not only because you target multi species and do crazy advertures but I've said this before, the interaction you have with the camera and the people you meet up with feels very genuine. I hope to get out in Panama at los buzos one day . Cheers !
Thanks Nelly! Hope to see you in Panama soon!
Spot on Rob, it is about all those awesome people you meet along the way and the fish are the bonus!
Your videos are just getting better and better. And I agree the fishing is secondary to the people.
Thanks Tony, that means a lot!
The ‘roos must’ve seen you eating the kanga banga’s! Turnabouts fair play.
Hahah true!
Great episode! Man I feel for your frustration and I hope people understand how hard it to produce fish on film! So stoked you got to meet great friends that you will have a lifetime!
Keep traveling, keep recording it, keep making new connections but never stop fishing. Can't catch'em every time but we never stop fishing lol
Haha I wont!
You're spot on Rob, it's all about the people when you're traveling. Mate it sucks about the fish but I'm so stoked you had a great time in oz. Next time come over to the west coast, you can't help but catch fish over here haha
Getting excited about the NZ leg of your trip, yew!
Haha I'll definitely be back and want to check out the west coast! Where should I go? Perth?
@@YakFishField Depends on the time of year and what you want to catch but basically if you come in winter-spring go north and south in the summer-autumn due to the weather.
It covers such a vast area it has a lot of diverse fisheries but some of the bucket list places would be Exmouth gulf area for big pelagics and billfish, Cockburn sound (yeah the name makes me laugh too) for pink snapper, Dirk Hartog island for big giant trevally and the southwest for the annual Australian salmon run.
More than happy if you want to drop me an email for more info myfishntips@gmail.com
Surprised you didn't hook up with the Aussie guys that were at the los buzos world cup, Justin is based not far from southwest rocks in southeast queensland. Damian is the man to talk to about pelagics on the west coast though, he has caught some serious fish from a kayak over here.
Sorry for the novel but feel free to shoot me an email if you head this way I've got a bunch of contacts I'll connect you with. Tight lines
He kinda reminds me of the “apparently” kid 😂 love the vids!
Hahah
A celebration of experience in the field.
Best catch ever.
Life Rocks!! Stay 😎✌️
Good video fella cant wait to watch the rest of the trip :)
It's about to get epic as we head off the grid!
I dont even fish and I love your videos, thank you so much for sharing your stories and adventures.
Absolutely awesome video. I have traveled many places around the world with the military, and it's not strictly the places you remember, but the people you meet in those places that stick with you forever. What a great experience for you guys. LOVED IT!!!! Thank you for sharing.
It's so true man. Thanks for following the j ourney!
Dude, That was one Great video! Keep doing what you do best, and that is just making great honest videos. Fishing will always be second and people first That is the way it should be. I watch these videos to see you interact with all that is around you, and people are the most important part. Keep right on doing what you are doing, don't stop!!!!!!!
Thanks for the support, James!
Just found this channel and have to say i really enjoy watching your videos man keep up hard work
Thanks Dylan and welcome!
great video and I love kayak fishing so much fun when you get a fish that pulls you around in the kayak such a blast!
Heck yeah!
Great videos so far bro, fish or not I always enjoy tagging along on your adventures through your videos. It’s all about the people and you have a truly blessed life in that respect.
That’s exactly it brotha. Easy to forget and this trip was a solid reminder
Hey Rob, sorry the fish weren't on but great to see you enjoyed your stay in Australia. Next time you need to head to the top end or Great Barrier Reef area, the fishing is much better there than the NSW north coast. A real credit to your video making that I managed to watch the whole Australian segment, even without fish being caught.
_incredible _*_Fishing_*_ Congratulations Fisherman!_ 👍🎣
Great video!! Who'd thought that 'roos are a giant trash panda!...lol Loved the personal insight, worth the watch. Thanks
Thanks Allen! Those roos got aggressive...
Australia looks awesome 👏 New Zealand looks just as awesome!
It's about to get real epic in NZ!
Can't wait for the next episode, great job Rob!
Thanks man!
Could be your best yet. Enjoyed that very much. Good vibes all around. Well done sir.
Thanks Jon, awesome feedback
High quality video. Even higher quality person.
Thanks Tristen 👊🏼
Think that's awesome, we are all human. I like the realness of this.
That we are.
Awesome video 😍🎣🎣👊 thanks
Great video, keep doing what you are doing. Experiences is what life is all about! Tight lines.
Couldn't agree more. Thanks Maurice!
Appreciated you talking about throwing away cut line instead of putting it in the water. Great trip and loving the footage!
Drives me crazy when people do that
Just WOW
Awesome video the best series on the tube right now
Thanks Jack!
Cant wait to watch new zealand!!!!!!
It's abut to get real epic!!
So true the camaraderie is the best
To answer your question Rob, It's not always about fishing, it's about having an experience. Good Job!
Absolutely, glad you agree brother
You can't share made memories with a fish mount! But you can relive those made memories with the people you shared making them with. You can even share those memories with anyone who wants to enjoy your stories of that mounted fish or of the fish that was not caught. The best memories are made with the people that you shared them with. Not with the fish, the deer, the jelly fish or the Roo! The best memories are the ones you made together and brand new!
Absolutely man. I'm just trying to live my life creating one great memory at a time.
Great video brother! Thank you very much for sharing! Get home safe !
Thanks man!
That bloke has the classic Aussie backyard glass table.
Very nice!
What a trip and what a couple of videos. Great content as always!

Can’t wait for the next leg of trip awesome stuff!
It's about to take a turn for the FISHY!
I agree with Scott. Amazing! Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
awesome vid as always bro!! love this series.. its true.. the journey itself is worth it.. its not all about the fish.. your fan from malaysia! :D
Stupid question, that current was tough against you with the peddles how do you think you'd faired with a paddle? Great video as always. Waiting on the NZ vids! cheers man,
It would've been extremely tough. I would've given up, but there are stronger paddlers out there than me.
Amazing story Robert loved it
Thanks brother!
Amazing video, thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks for following the journey!
