- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
- In this video, we make all of our halibut preparations, hooking up the gear, dropping the reel, and running new hydraulic hoses to the reel.
We offer all of the fish we catch on our channel directly to the consumers. We handle all of our catches with care to maintain the utmost quality of Alaska seafood. You can visit our website here to check out our selection of excellent wild-caught seafood.

NPT is the acronym you were looking for which is National Pipe Taper but you can get swivels on any sort of connecitons same as you can with JIT
Good call, Chris, thanks. I was having a brain fart.
@@EISAlaska No worries. I was trying to look up what advantages/disavantages that one has over the other and the issues that were brought up were from a vendor and seemed rather spurious. Like one of the issues mentioned was NPT has issues with cracked fittings due to overtightening which can be said of JIC fittings as well I believe so I'm not inclined to believe the issues mentioned in that comparison. NPT fittings have successfully been used for over 100 years so I'm not sure that JIC is really much better TBH. Just a different connection that they can likely charge more for as it's a more complex method to manufacture those types of fittings :/
Ive been watching for awhile and am excited about the new boat and cant wait to see that big beast in action, Nice to see how you guys all treat each other also.
Loved the narration by T while Matt was getting the grinder ...
Always amazing how well you control the boats when your driving them. Great boating skills!
Made it look easy EIS team! Keep rolling! Stay safe! 👍👍
Cheers thoughtful! Thanks for tuning in!
@@EISAlaska 👍👍
Wow... good jobs mister
Always makes me hold my breath a minute when they lower the reel. Love the Fishtail ... the original Aqua Transformer! :) Safe trip!!
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Nice job, hooking up reel
Great job guys can’t wait
See you on the next show me guys
Hard to believe another year has gone by. Bob in Nevada
GREAT JOB MATT
Len, you look so cute in your Michelin Man suit. 😂 P.S. Matt, you could put tie wraps or heat shrink tubing on either end of the blue tubing to help keep water from getting in. 👍
Lol! Thats a pretty good idea, Dennis. I think we’ll get some paint on the fittings then maybe try out the zipties.
In my neck of the woods, that wrench is lovingly called a Kentucky Speed Wrench.
Also works well as a hammer
Yay! Fishing footage is coming!
Let's go get 'em.
Like # 70
2 days off in last month, so I gotta catch up!
This is great to stumble upon
Ok this is an hour long, so I will watch a bit now, and pause, and watch in morning.
1030pm here, and been up early, so I'm looking forward to watch this...cheers guys...I'll watch a bit, and finish in morning 🇨🇦❤️🍻
Nice calm start to my morning. Can't wait for the halibut hauling.
Thanks guys
Thanks for the video guys
Thank you Gents...
If the hydraulics okay we can catch some Halibut! Liked how you thought running water through to thread the hose easily through. Good to see Tristen. Was that a Crow squawking in the background? We have a family of crows nearby. They start the squawking convention early between 6-6:45 a.m.. Can't sleep. By the time you roll over thinking you may sneak a few z's, the neighbor starts. The crows were back in the evening sometimes between 6-7:00 p.m.. Noisy. Fall's upon us too.
Nice job
You probably already know it is sort of a shortcut to loosening a tight nut or bolt. I use it as a last shot effort. You can take to combination wrenches and snipe them together to give you more leverage. So take your box end that is the correct size, say 9/16 inches. Put that on your bolt head, leaving the open end available. Now take a combination wrench one to two sizes bigger and fit the box end over one of the open end prongs of you 9/16. You may have to try the curvature of the combination in both directions, then lift or push the wrenches keeping the perfectly lined up. You kind of have to watch the alignment when you put force to it, but it will give you better leverage. Just wear gloves okay, it can be hard on your knuckles but if you are in a bind it will help.
Ok. Good. Fishing
Has the net fishing not been worth it for the past couple of years or is it more trouble then its worth in the end? Seems it's been a couple of years since I remember yall did that.
So do all halibut go deep this time of year? or just the breeeding age ? and do they go into troughs or just deep flat areas during the winter season? I just wonder how you find halibut in the winter months. Its so much to learn.. I have brought my sport fishing boat over on the ferry to Kodiak once in May and had a great time exploring ..
Matt, A nitpick but, the 90 deg bends at aft control station look vulnerable to damage. Not sure how, but things happen on a pitching deck! Maybe a bracket to cover or hardwood splints over and between lines might save the day?🤔
Just wondering when the Emerald Isle will be don't with the refit.? Be safe and God bless 🙏
1/2 mpt x 3/8 hydraulic tubing very popular be sure and carry extras
Some WD-40 sure comes in handy sometimes. 😂😂😂
get some anti sieze on those bolts might help and I love Kroil for breaking free old bolts
Don't forget to check the hydraulic pan if you have lost some fluid
Grainger has reasonably priced rigid SS welded hydraulic tubing. It is only in 6' lengths but can be flared, cut and bent. It is 304 grade and 316 is about the best. Not sure if 304 grade is suitable for your application. We usually used the line you are using but have run the welded SS line with great success especially when it gets buried in a wall. Priced does depend on thickness and pressure resistance needed 1/2 od w/ 2339 psi is around $25 per 6'. Shipping might be the kicker for you though plus you need to figure in fittings
Just Saying and adding to the algorithm
Thanks Brin. I'm only seeing it at $50 plus for a 6' section. I wonder if they have commercial accounts? The shipping is a kicker though.
Closest store is Anchorage which appears to be about 270 miles away. Not to close and not like there is a road to there
I tend to tie off my sheafs covering with a black nitral tie strap so they don;t slide down
We use pink tape here since white Teflon tends to degrade with petroleum products
Great video guys, top notch. Poor audio at the end.
Thanks Polar, yeah we had mic issues while filming sadly.
Can you guys get and ship Alaskan King Crab? my usual supplier (Costco) has not had AKC for two years due to their supplier being Russian and the embargo of Russian products here? We have a tradition of feasting on AKC every New Year and steam about 20 lbs. Please let me know or point me to an independent US fishery like yourself. Thanks
It feels like you just took the reel off and started jigging lol.
Love ya please go fishing before I go elk hunting lol lol
Did you guys not go fishing for salmon this year? I'm hoping yall did and its just videos yet to be put out?
Is there a reason you don't put a couple of cable ties around the openings of the blue covers on the hyd hoses to stop water getting in ?
What kind of Groceries to you cook out on the water for your longer hauls?
Great question! We try to make hardy but easy meals. Sometimes we'll fillet up a fish that we caught and eat good!
@@EISAlaska Right on i wasn't for sure if you guys got burnt out eating that fresh sea food
Do you have a connection to Montana? I was born in Conrad and lived in Missoula until I was 11.
I totally believe in covering all hoses salt water is a bitch on everything
Number 1 love Halibut ❤️ Any sample to try l pay for shipping
The sample is called buying the quantity that’s offered ha
@@pqtpat7734 miserable
What is your favorite fishery?
Here the Govt makes us use environmental safe hydraulic fluid
Number 2 I can't afford Halibut
I own a NAPA Auto Parts Store we sell Stainless Stell hydraulic fittings for Marine Application
