Looks like a fun day! Love yellowtail sashimi! Here we have amberjack though not yellowtail but they are cousins. How do you have your anchor trolley rigged up????? Run a stealth 525 and have a rigged up anchor trolley think probably close to what you’ve done?? but just wondering how you did yours? Thanks man, cheers!
It was indeed a fun day! We mainly get yellowtail, snoek and bonito and some tuna in our local waters with lots of bottom species as well. I would have loved to have amberjack here but we get the odd tropical yellowtail if they come in with the currents. My anchor system is pretty simple: 2 pulley, one on the front handle and one on the middle handle with a loop in the line to attach the float and anchor to. You then anchor and pull it so the loop is at the nose of the kayak easier than just a rope tied to the nose with a float. Cheers
Hi sure I am always happy to share. I spotted the fish chase my bait as I reeled in and they were not feeding well on the thick leader. I then decided to go down to 0.5 mm fluoro carbon. I fished a 4/0 and 5/0 BKK inline circle and my hook trace was about 50cm - 60cm with a snell knot on the circle hook and a three way swivel. My sinker line was about 15cm. I only used the tail end of the bait as I could hook it streamlined so it does not spin on the strong current. I dropped right below the kayak set a fairly tight drag. Sinker weight was 1oz. I hope this helps.
awesome -I have to come down and fish this spot on my kayak

Awesome video once again, really enjoying your content! May I ask what your trace setup was?

Thanks for the reply James, much appreciated! Looking forward to seeing some more of your vids, Tight line's
@@James-yx7kb So what was the bait? Sardine?
@@wildcoastkayaks75 correct yes.
Lekker James!! Gelyk soos vet pret 🎉
Dankie JP! Dit was een vir die boeke!
If we all release cob over 5kg and only eat the odd ones under 5kg there will be an explosion in cob numbers
I agree 100%!
Daars n paar groot bronzies wat tans daar rond swem
Sal hom graag op die kayak wil hak! Lekker pret maar sal my bronzie setups moet pak en barbless vang.
Lekker ou tjom welldone
Dankie Tertius!
Wow insane. Livebaits?
@@craigwheaton2506all on pilchard. Used small baits on a 4/0 circle. Light leader line…
