awesome video Greg! definitely one of ur best trips. SPJ delivers nonstop action. lot of action in winter too.
Love days like that!
Absolutely bro 🤙🏽
Some really nice fish caught Greg! Unfortunately once the ass blows out on those beaut of snapper, they're a done deal. Might pay to do some further investigation on that one. Looking forward to the next vid. P.S package on its way...
Seems like that's the general consensus on the blown snappers. I always thought if they could swim off then they're good to go. Guess my hopes to release them might have just been wishful thinking! Will do some research on it anyway.
Looking forward to the delivery 😉
@@gpfishingadventures7834 Good on you for realising them tho. I’m no expert mate, But might pay to get more insight on that.
Epic fishing mate, and so good to see you catch and release the big snaps / kings. 👏🏻
Cheers John! Appreciate it
good one mate! hopefully will get a kayak one day. trolling and softbaiting around the local lakes and maybe if allowed a bit of very calm sea..... good on ya for getting out and getting us a video to watch as we dream of being out there doing ay! Good on ya mate!
Thanks mate! Appreciate it. Hopefully you get yourself a kayak one day and enjoy this awesomeness sport.
@@gpfishingadventures7834 yeah mate! Thanks
Awesome to be releasing those breeders. Great vid.
Thanks mate! Appreciate it
@@gpfishingadventures7834 I see you’ve moved on from your Predator to a peddle vessel. Not sure I’m ready for that .. surf entries in the
BoP are interesting enough!
Nice Greg. Good on ya. You put the hard yards in and you get the rewards. Re the needle...i also read somewhere that although you get a 'feel good moment' it actually doesnt make a difference as the damage is irreversible. Whst rod and reel combo are,you using? Loos very effective
Thanks Rob. This was that day we were in the same neck of the woods. Yeah I need to do some research into whether its worth releasing those fish that are that blown.
Currently using the Penn Fathom II 25NLD on a Penn Battalion 250-400g rated slow pitch jigging rod. 40lb Slammer braid, but I'm considering going down to 30lb for the deeper stuff.
Looks like ya need a needle/something to deflate the swim bladders when they blow up like that mate!
I was going to comment on that. The research I've seen is that situation with the intestine hanging out the rear is likely fatal, an internal injury way beyond the swim bladder issue.
Yeah I carry a needle onboard. Didn't really think about using it as they all went down. May help relieve some extra pressure though I guess! Will try and remember for next time 🤙🏽
@@thor_6886 I haven't read much research on the issue to be honest. Probably a better time than ever to do so!
Snapper slayer Greg, what a session bro 🤙
Shot Sammy! Sure was a good day out there. love it
@gpfishingadventures7834 well worth the snapper slap I reckon 🤣
@@samgriggs9298 😂 I can't believe how loud it was on the camera lol. But yes well and truly worth it haha
nice video bro, and great fishing 👍
Cheers!
Nice bro, What gopro is on your chest?
Cheers! Got a 6 on the chest, 11 up the front.
Whats the slow jig set up your rolling mate?
Penn Fathom II 25NLD on a Penn Battalion SPJ 250-400g. 400m of 40lb slammer braid.
How's the stability of this kayak compared to the profish? Does that higher seat cause any issues?
I found my Profish 440 generally more stable. The high seat in the PDL throws off the centre of gravity. But you get used to the stability of the PDL pretty quickly. It's not really an issue for me.
@@gpfishingadventures7834 Thanks, the pedals look real appealing for long trolling runs
@@freerangewhanau yeah they're perfect for that. hands free is great too.
