I was just under the impression small fish doesn't need to be reeled in in low gear so I never use it. This year I'm hopping on longer trips so maybe I can finally get to use it lol
@@DerrickVan Haha. Large enough for me. Also, use it like a gear. I engage it when needed bringing them in during the up and down fight, and go back to high speed when that fish makes that crazy run.
I was confident, I think it just came down to me pumping the rod, I later learned to not pump the rod when you are heavy knife jigging because the hook might backout
It cost me $395 to get on this trip, I agree with you that the prices are high but when it's biting good it's well worth it when you catch a bluefin. My entertainment budget basically all goes to fishing haha 😄
I think it was because I was pumping the fish, since the jig was so heavy, pumping it gave the jig some slack to back out of the fish's mouth because it was a 400g jig.
@Outbackamerica I was in high gear I never switched to low gear. Makairas now gear is 1.3:1 and it's high gear is 4:1, which is typically the low gear on a talica

Great job keep them coming
Thank you
Congrats on the pb
Thank you sir
Lol, using low gear will help on the circles up and down. I am glad you still got em. Why buy a 2 speed if you don't use it.😅

at the 11 min mark - whats the company of that jig and how many grams ?
Mustad 400 gram riproller
What size reel, rod and line you used in this trip?
Makaira 16ii graftech rod and 100lb test
did you felt undergun with that setup? or were you cofident on it , just bad hook setups

Rail time persistence pays off!!!
Forsure! I was skunked for the trip until that 1 stop that produced 3 hookups
Good job, do you ever try to figure out why the first 2 was popped off?
Thank you! I suspect it was a bad hookset and while fighting the fish and pumping it the hook just ripped free
Great job out there!!!
Thank you! I appreciate it
Nice video! What setups were you using?
Thank you! I was using a makaira 16ii on a custom rail rod, I don't know the blank
Nice one bro
Thank you!
congrats!
Thanks man
Damn nice stuff man, what was the jig you kept getting bit on?
Thank you! It was a 400g rip roller in the rasta color
What did they mean by "We ain't killing fish" ??
The royal polaris joked that my boat was not catching fish because they were trying to steal our school of fish
@@DerrickVan Oh, Ok
When's the giveaway
That tangle looks scary. I'm glad you finally landed one. Good job!
Thank you! I got lucky that I wasn't tangled with them that bad haha
What did it cost to go fishing on that trip? Cause I'm looking at prices that are astronomical

Why do you think the fish kept popping off?
I think it was because I was pumping the fish, since the jig was so heavy, pumping it gave the jig some slack to back out of the fish's mouth because it was a 400g jig.
@@DerrickVan Maybe try a heavy treble hook on the bottom such as an Owner ST-66 4X.
@@random1883 I saw multiple people do that I will try that from now on!
Because you’re fishing in low gear for no reason…
