Awesome vid as always. The tumour result from the larvae of a parasite that encysts in the muscle tissue. The fish reacts by forming connective tissue around the site of the infection, effectively isolating it in a fluid-filled sac. The parasite generally dies apparently, leaving a sac with black inky fluid. I had fish in tanks develop these (back in uni days) and often they healed up eventually.

Thats actually very interesting💯

Your videos just keep getting better and better thank u

Great content mate, as a smaller boat owner I'm loving these vids.

Cool video Matty for fast fish there are reels with an independent knob, where only the spool turns when the fish takes line. Good for the fnger and the line doesn't get caught so quickly

Thanks Matt love the inshore fishing, lucky tusky very tasty fish. Have watched some monsters hunting in water that just covers there backs, great to see 🦈

Epic fish Matty, definitely a bucket list for a lot of fly fishers. Need to get up your way soon and have a crack 🤙

Nice Matty! Well done. I need a recipe for Margaritas. I remember you had a video making one on the boat, took a photo of the ingredients but i lost it !

love this episode.....more of this style of fishing ..we all don' t have the opportunity to hit the hard shell...but we all have a tinny ....remember your grass roots mate .....

Hey mate, I've asked the same question about the black ink sack before and here's the answer I got from a writer of a fishing magazine. "Its a result of infection with Sarcotaces sp., a type of philichthyid copepod which infects the musculature of a range of fish species. When the cysts are cut by the fillet knife they release black fluid over the fillet."

That southerly rolling in had nothing to do with you wrapping things up early and heading home. Gotta love a kid free, date night with the wifey 🤣☺️😉

Nice fish, and can’t beat them tailing… hope the margaritas went down well??? Would it be worth getting a foot pedal for the electric to prevent hands off the rod/reel and potential tangles? Relipper content, keep it up and love any shallow water stuff… 👌

wow great video and fish what ac dream ,thanks for it

I have seen heaps of fish of many species with wounds behind the head, some healed, some fresh. I once caught a Bonito with a fresh wound and sucker marks on its flanks. I believe they are from squid attacks. I have never seen the black cysts.

I 💯 agree with yiur stand point. Sustainable fishing isnt about keeping no fish, its about showing respect to the environment and taking only enough for a feed. Taking one good sized fish a trip is totally fine imho. Its when guys go out and 'bag out' and take 20-30 fish a boat off a single flat that I get a little disappointed. And thats an fish on fly

hi there, great channel! Just wondering, do you have polarized filters for you cameras? If not I am sure it would improve your already amazing content!

That Tuskey was great, love the hunt & catch, do it with Flathead at home in dirty water. You know they're there cause they've already attacked once, then it turns into the hunt

Awesome video amazing catches 🥰👋🤗👍💙🩵🤍🐠🐟🎣

Yet another quality vid.

You keep about every fish!

That’s a fire ass beat in the video Who produced that beat ?? Also, Sick video my man

Awesome Tusky! Bro, keep your fly rod tip touching the surface of the water when you're stripping your fly. You'll "feel" the eat in an instant and miss fewer bites! Instead of lifting the rod to get a hook set, just keep the rod pointed at the fish while the tip is still at the waterline and give it a hard strip set with your stripping hand and you'll properly set the hook deep and firmly. Also when casting and when you pick up the fly line, while keeping the rod tip still at the water line, take out the slack with your stripping hand, then reach up the flyline to strip again and then S L O W L Y pick up the rod. As you pick up the line with the rod, you'll feel the water tension which properly loads the rod while you lift it and then shoot some behind you once you hit your back stroke stop and then make your forward cast and then eight shoot it on your forward stroke or make one more false cast and then shoot it out, not hauling it any faster than your haul on a normal false cast and you see the rod wake up with plenty of power without you forcing it out there (which can blow up your cast. Finally.... S L O W down your casting stroke and let the rod do the work and not you forcing it out there (like you would casting a plug on a spinning rod).

@@Daiwa_Is_King Mate, I didn't tell him how to fish. He's seriously awesome, but is still somewhat new to fly fishing and fly casting. These things I mention will only improve his game. I have about 25yrs worth of helping people with their fly casting. But that being said, he's the man when it comes to fishing in his dream setting that most only dream they had the opportunity to do so and to catch what's he's caught.

Nice

the 2nd section of your video brought back some good old memory of another video which brought me immense viewing pleasure also from the same country. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lGRnpbZ-m5DAkag.html hope it will get you psych up for more flat fishing content in 2024.

U don’t have to justify keeping a top eating fish mate!

I Don't get the editing on this.... You let the tusky go.... then you walk back to the boat and look like he followed you there? I don't get it.

Matt put the fly back in the fishes mouth to drag it back to the boat maybe to keep it fresh in the water before he bleeds it and puts it on ice to maximize its eating quality.

Man, what do you do for a living that let you do this all the time??

If the fish are hungry they will eat anything so ur theory of the fish never gona eat the fly again is nonsense but if it makes u sleep better at night

Nice fishinng
