I wish I could go fishing with my dad again I lost him to a heart attack 7 months ago, we went fishing the day before it happened and its one of my most cherished memories ❤ much love sammy
Fishing with your old man is such a cherished time !! Unfortunately, my old man, and my Mum left us quite a while ago but I learnt alot as a kid growing up from him and my Mum as well. I now pass a lot of what I`ve learnt to my now adult kids and enjoy any time they can come fishing and camping with me!!
Since I sunk my boat all I do is beach fish haha and I actually love it. Reminds me of my childhood and I find it extremely relaxing. Great video mate.
The big boys up toward double island point scoop them up in massive nets before they even hit the Noosa end of the north shore... has been this way for near 20years +... we are lucky to see tailor get close to Noosa these days... once in a blue moon I get lucky... landed a huge green back on sunshine beach last year... 62cm.... my PB.... love the videos, keep up the good work Sammy Boy, live the dream bro...
In North Eastern USA we call them Bluefish and it's not uncommon to catch them up to 90cm and 12kg. Love the videos. Love to see the different species you catch.
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Thanks for the response! The Stripers are fun to catch as well. I have a replica mount of my personal best Striper that went 114cm and 18kg. I let her go. The world record Striper went more than 36kg! Tight lines, Sammy!
Fishing Taylor/Shad/Bluefish by you brings back lots of memories for me. I remember catching them in Durban, SA and Cape Cod Massachusetts, USA.. Real fun to catch. I still have the ball race wooden and fibre glass/mahogany reels with me =more than 60 years old. look close to the ALVEY REELS you have in Australia. 👍
Making it look it easy... nothing better then fishing with the old man... Gotta get over to the west, get one of those 15keg pearls... Love the channel mate... 🍻🤙🐟
Sammy mate fantastic! Nice to see you and your dad I love Taylor time! I’m heading down for a cast this arvo cheers mate ! Not often I hit thumbsup before I watch a video ! Keep them coming buddy 🍻🍻🍻🇦🇺🍻🍻🇦🇺👍
Mate coming home to Melbourne down the coast from Cairns after doing a lap in the caravan. Can't wait to get to some good surf beaches. This video is getting me all kinds of fired up.
Great content once again thanks Sammy. Now I'm sure I'm about to step on a landmine here, but I'm going to say I'm not a fan of the Alvey Reels for tailor fishing. As you point out they nearly always run at you after striking & IMO you just can't retrieve line fast enough to keep solid line tension, but I love using my Alvey for the bread and butter species. For Tailor I use the humble Penn Spinfisher 650, it's the Alvey of the thread line reels.
G;day mate, you got some nice choppers there. We get some beauties here too but we see the sunset over the ocean on the mid west coast. (Geraldton) I caught a few around the 2kg mark at Tarcoola Beach, bloody good tucker. I added this a bit later, my rig is a running sinker, swivel, trace and a 3 gang hook. And usually white bait.
Enjoyed the tailor fishing as they are not common in SA my mate last cought one a lot of years ago at Waitpinga south of Adelaide that fish came in at 10lb I'm yet to catch one,I'm salmon fishing next Monday at waitpinga would like a couple in the 1 to 2kg range I'll let you know how I go tight lines from John.
@@SammyHitzkeFishing hahaha man that's proper frosty mate, don't know how you do it. Yea mullys are going great, I'm on a solid 100% streak of zero from zero attempts haha. Got to get a few things sussd including a surf rod then I'll give it a crack 😉.
Sammy would love to see more of these videos, have you ever recorded one where you chuck out the tailor heads for a jewie or shark, reckon that would be pretty fun haha great vid 👍👍👏 oh yeah also do you release tailor alot, they seem to get targeted pretty hard and i was wondering if you let them go every now and then
Hey mate, I have used tailor heads for both jew and sharks. Haven’t filmed much of it though. Might try do something this year 👍👍 Yeah mate I let most of my tailor go, usually I keep a couple for a feed and if I don’t need any baits the rest go back 👍
The IGFA All Tackle World Record for tailor stands at 31 lb 12oz (14.4 kg) landed by James Hussey near Hatteras, North Carolina. And we have fished and netted ours to almost extinction. Bugger all any size to them most times, and I'm giving up on Noosa North Shore and Fraser island where they aren't worth chasing anymore. We need a total ban for a few years to try and help them recover imo.
He Sam, gr8 vid again. Question, I have fished the surf a few times with same ball sinker and quite often sinker and bait are back on the beach. Is this just because I don't cast far enough or had the wind against me? Thanks
Hi Sammy, would it be fair to say chasing Tailor on the beach is far less popular than what it was 25 years ago, the days of many fishos on the gutters at Pottsville and Hastings Point seem to be gone, and it really enhances your chance for a big Jew using cut flesh baits..
That reel has me all kinds of confused lol. I have never seen anything like it, let alone for surf fishing. Damn Aussies... your seasons, toilet spin and fishing reels are all backwards haha jk. Good stuff man.
Now thats a reel and rod Setup i Dont See Everyday whats that called ? looks kinda like the brittish centrepin reel for matchangling . ive only tested 12feet surfcasters 5lbs with 7000:s reels and the 13 f carpwhackers 3.5lbs never that kind youre using liike a flyrod but different ! Now il continue watching 2:47 in . / Paul Roger Nilsson North Sweden
You eat those ?? Where I'm from we live line them that size for sharks or strip bait for flounder and chuck them in the crab pots, but don't eat them, way to fishy taste
Anyone else been hanging out for tailor season?! 🍻🍻🍻
You gonna post flatties this season?
I’ve Been waiting for the squid season to come by and it’s producing the goods down at Sydney harbour
Waiting to hit Fraser. Hopefully the tailor fire up h to is year
Obly one of these comments relate to tailor so far, but yes, yes i have
Thanks for another entertaining video.
I am guessing you are up on noosa north shore area, wondering if you noticed much in the way of pipis up there?
I wish I could go fishing with my dad again I lost him to a heart attack 7 months ago, we went fishing the day before it happened and its one of my most cherished memories ❤ much love sammy
❤️❤️❤️ so nice you got to spend some time on the water with him before he passed mate!
Fishing with your old man is such a cherished time !! Unfortunately, my old man, and my Mum left us quite a while ago but I learnt alot as a kid growing up from him and my Mum as well. I now pass a lot of what I`ve learnt to my now adult kids and enjoy any time they can come fishing and camping with me!!
Bloody oath mate! That’s what it’s all about. I hope I can do the same with my kids some day as well 🤗🤗
Beach fishing's always going to be the winner for me. There's just something about chasing tailor, salmon and jews from the sand that never gets old.
You and me both mate! Such a good fun way to fish! 🍻🍻
awesome video mate, would love to see a mulloway video in the surf, really need the tips ahaha
I don’t think I have caught a decent Jew in the surf yet to be honest mate. Would love to do more of it, would be a bloody tough one to film though!
I hang out for four O'clock Sundays as it's the only time I see a fish on a bloody hook because they're not on mine, keep it going Sammy!!
🤣🤣🤣 don’t worry mate, I’ll keep catching them just for you 💪💪💪
@@SammyHitzkeFishing hahaha that's what they all say🤪
Nice fishing and beautiful ocean! 🐠😀👍👏
Be healthy and keep enjoying wonderful nature
Thanks for watching 👍
Well done. Cannot beat fishing in the surf. Good to see you using a sidecast too. Best reel for surf IMHO.
Cheers mate! Thanks for watching 🍻🍻
Well done mate killer work as usual
Thanks mate 🍻🍻
Since I sunk my boat all I do is beach fish haha and I actually love it.
Reminds me of my childhood and I find it extremely relaxing.
Great video mate.
Couldn’t agree more mate! No better thing to do then stare into the ocean and try your luck! 👌👌🍻🍻

Get loads of.good tailor from the rocks in the national.park
That’s a bit of a shame! Hopefully you guys have a good season this year 👌👌

That would be a dream sized fish over here!! Pretty cool to see the ones you guys get! And those striped bass as well!

Thanks again for great content. I look forward to the Sunday upload, along with the coopers 😜. Cheers
Ahah cheers mate! I always say my videos are best served with a beer(s) 😉🍻🍻
Love the beach fishing videos!
Cheers mate! Plenty more to come too 🍻🍻

Jeez that would be nice! I’ve never caught a dhuie before! It’s on the list for sure!
Great to see you do some beach fishing for something different Sammy. Keep up the good work mate.
Cheers mate! Plenty more beach and rock action to come throughout winter 👌👌
Your surfcasting gear is so alien to me LOL those kilometers of empty beach tho mate, so awesome
Hahah yeah the old Alvey set up is pretty unique! Works well though 👌👌
Nice video bro🤙wish our shad in South Africa get as big as yours .....lovely to catch them spoons 🎣
I think it’s the Americans we all have to be jealous of! Their bluefish get huge!
Sammy mate fantastic! Nice to see you and your dad I love Taylor time! I’m heading down for a cast this arvo cheers mate ! Not often I hit thumbsup before I watch a video ! Keep them coming buddy 🍻🍻🍻🇦🇺🍻🍻🇦🇺👍
Haha cheers Mick! Beach fish was pretty much the first style of fishing dad introduced me too! It’s our bread and butter and still a firm favourite 👌👌
Very nice. Wished Tailor came up as far as Yeppoon. Nothing biting up here at all atm. Lifeless.
I caught 2 Tailor last time I was over there, they tasted amazing, and you put them back out for bait. I hope you know how lucky you are Sammy
Haha yeah mate Very spoilt indeed! It’s the old upgrade theory. Can I convert 1kg of tailor into 20kg of mackerel 🤞🤞🤞
What a beautiful fishing at this time with sunset😊😊😊
🙌🙌🙌 thanks for watching 🍻🍻

Lovely video Sammy 👍👍🤟🍻🍻

Awesome video maaaate. 👌😎
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻
Where did you catch these? I'm living on the Sunshine Coast and not sure which beaches to try and target them from.
Gold Coast mate, try sunshine beach up the sunny coast 👍👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Thanks, will give it a go. Any beaches further south you can recommend?
I'm new to fishing.
How do you dispatch the fish?
Do you give em a crack on head or what?
Sound like the honey badger 😂
Great vid 👍
Hahah cheers mate 😂
Awesome video man! We call these acrobats Shad or Elf in South Africa🔥
Well there you go! They get them in America as well 👌👌
Absolutely crazy mate
Cheers mate 🍻🍻
Nice work mate. Would have put one on the pan for breaky too. 👍
Nothing better than fresh tailor! 🍻🍻
seen that drop coming from a mile away what were you thinking
Crisp winters morning?? Bro you live in QLD come down here if you're keen for some crispness haha. Good to see the phantom in on the action again 🙂🙂.
Hahah Righto mate. It was easily below 25 degrees. That constitutes as QLD crisp!!
How are those Mully’s coming along??
@@SammyHitzkeFishing hahaha man that's proper frosty mate, don't know how you do it. Yea mullys are going great, I'm on a solid 100% streak of zero from zero attempts haha. Got to get a few things sussd including a surf rod then I'll give it a crack 😉.
Love these kind of videos Sammy. A lot more relatable. Dart video would be good to watch also. Another great video brother
Cheers mate, yeah nothing beats a good surf session. Was hoping to do the dart that session but they weren’t on unfortunately! 🍻🍻
beautiful morning session
Cheers mate!
Nice tailor sesh mate!
Cheers mate! 🍻🍻
I’m off to Moreton next weekend to have a crack on the beach, I can’t wait!🎣🍻
Hope you get stuck into a few mate 🍻🍻
In South Africa we call these fish shad. We have a bag limit of 4 per angler per day. Very tasty fish. 😋 and a good fighting fish.
That’s pretty cool! Thanks for watching 🍻🍻
Sammy would love to see more of these videos, have you ever recorded one where you chuck out the tailor heads for a jewie or shark, reckon that would be pretty fun haha great vid 👍👍👏
oh yeah also do you release tailor alot, they seem to get targeted pretty hard and i was wondering if you let them go every now and then
Hey mate, I have used tailor heads for both jew and sharks. Haven’t filmed much of it though. Might try do something this year 👍👍
Yeah mate I let most of my tailor go, usually I keep a couple for a feed and if I don’t need any baits the rest go back 👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing sammy mate thanks for replying, love what your doing keep it up🍻
What line did you have on the reel bro cheers from Wollongong
do you use circle hooks sufcasting at all. its what i use fish always lip hooked
Hey mate, I haven’t tried them to be honest because we use gang’s. Be worth a go though 🤷♂️👌
Howzit Sammy! My Sunday arvo fishing vid fix 😆
Thanks for watching mate 🍻🍻
Love the show and want to know if you can catch squid of the surf
Hi you all
Sammy you should come to Florida usa
It 100 degrees F.
Today.
Happy fishing 🎣
Haha I would love to mate! Little hard to get too at the moment! 🍻🍻
Too cold down here in Sydney to go beach fishing
Hahah just wear a thick wetsuit mate! You’ll be right 👌👌
Hi Sammy, what are your set ups ? You didn’t mention them in your description !
G’day Peter, I did a run through of the setup at the end of the session 👍
It’s an Alvey stealth reel and rod 👍
Hey Sammy, great video mate. Can you give us sort of description of the wire you use and how you attach it please.
Hey mate, yeah it kingfisher stainless wire. I just use small crimps to attach it 👌👌
Hey mate where do you get the 2 gang hook with swivel?
Check out Tru Turn gangs. They make them 👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing cheers, thanks mate
The IGFA All Tackle World Record for tailor stands at 31 lb 12oz (14.4 kg) landed by James Hussey near Hatteras, North Carolina.

We need a total ban for a few years to try and help them recover imo.
I’d like to see them stop being netted off the beaches. That would be an awesome start!
What gang hooks did you use? Or do you make them yourself?
Mate I make mine myself but if I’m feeling lazy I use the tru turn gangs 👍👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing any tips on how to make them?
He Sam, gr8 vid again. Question, I have fished the surf a few times with same ball sinker and quite often sinker and bait are back on the beach. Is this just because I don't cast far enough or had the wind against me? Thanks
Could be a bit of both mate, you might need a larger sinker as well to help it stay put 👍👍
Howdy. Good to watch mate. How's the stealth rod ? I'm thinking of getting one.
G’day David, mate I really like mine as a heavy tailor rod. Casts really well and plenty of grunt 👌
Sammy is that a gopro 9 making the static noise because I seen a few videos lately that have the same noise from other people.
Nah it was a dodgy microphone. Got some salt water in it the bastard!
Interesting they have Bluefish down under apparently
Ours don’t get as big unfortunately!
Hello sir telescopic fishing rod which company best.??
I’m not sure sorry mate, I don’t have a telescopic rod 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Love a beach fish.
You and me both mate! 🍻🍻
Love the action of that rod...what is it?
That’s an Alvey Stealth 65S 👌👌
Hi Sammy, is this at Fraser? I was just there by the way
Nah mate Gold Coast 👍
Hi Sammy, would it be fair to say chasing Tailor on the beach is far less popular than what it was 25 years ago, the days of many fishos on the gutters at Pottsville and Hastings Point seem to be gone, and it really enhances your chance for a big Jew using cut flesh baits..
Probably isn’t as popular now, but I reckon it’s making a comeback! A big Jew is always a welcome treat 😍
The 12’s an hour after dark atm off the seaway.. the sounder almost goes black with them!
Yeah nice, they should be thick on the beaches soon then!
Cant catch a tailor to save myself. Meanwhile you're slaying them
What are you doing wrong mate? Are you fishing off the beaches?
@@SammyHitzkeFishing yeh i think finding them is my biggest problem! Never had any luck spinning slugs. I live on the GC
@@offthemeynroad4054 just walk down the beach and spin a 40-60gram metal slug through every gutter on dawn or dusk and you’ll find them!
Tailor called elf in South Africa.
Please tell me how to stop my Alvey from twisting line! I use swivels but to no avail.
I let mine untwist by holding the sinker off the swivel and letting it spin after each cast. That should help a bit 👍
Good morning Sammy
How are you mate! Where abouts are you tuning in from?
@@SammyHitzkeFishing BOSTON Massachusetts USA
You mean live bait season can't wait to send one out with 2 10/0 circles hinging out of one
😂😂😂 well I’ll be trolling mine. I haven’t tried slide baiting just yet! It’s on the list though 👌
Get the dogggg

Gold Coast mate 👍
Are you still planing on doing mid week videos with chef Julian ?
Hey mate! We tried for a little bit but just didn’t have the time to keep it up! We’ll do some more just won’t be every week unfortunately 🍻🍻
That reel has me all kinds of confused lol. I have never seen anything like it, let alone for surf fishing. Damn Aussies... your seasons, toilet spin and fishing reels are all backwards haha jk. Good stuff man.
😂😂😂 we do thinks a bit differently over here!
Where is this mate? GC?
Yeah mate Down the Goldie 👌
Now thats a reel and rod Setup i Dont See Everyday whats that called ? looks kinda like the brittish centrepin reel for matchangling . ive only tested 12feet surfcasters 5lbs with 7000:s reels and the 13 f carpwhackers 3.5lbs never that kind youre using liike a flyrod but different !

what day was this
Last week mate 👍
✌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
🍻🍻🍻
AND THANK~YOU FOR > FISHING < ! HOW FUN! : } BE WELL
Cheers!
I'd be favouring smoked and be buying bait. Hunter gathering so strong i don't get upgrades.
Haha smoked Spanish mackerel is even better then tailor 😉👨🍳👨🍳
@@SammyHitzkeFishing LOL I'd end up with stale bread for dinner if i trolled my Tailor for Spanoz.
You eat those ?? Where I'm from we live line them that size for sharks or strip bait for flounder and chuck them in the crab pots, but don't eat them, way to fishy taste
Yeah mate, they are great eating fresh. I love them 👌👌
