Kayak Fisherman Hooks 400-pound MAKO SHARK in New Zealand (CATCH & COOK) -- Episode 2

Спорт

In the 2nd episode of our New Zealand mothership adventure, we're kayak fishing 100 km off the coast of Auckland when a 400-pound mako shark bites one of our live baits! Then we have an absolute slayfest as fish after fish hit the yaks, before cooking up a fried snapper dinner back on the mothership.

    I know it man, sorry about that! I've been off the grid in Arizona doing a project for their tourism board (that series will be coming soon, and it was an amazing trip) and haven't been able to edit or upload. I'm back to the grind now and back to your regularly scheduled programming! Appreciate your patience brother.

    Son and I spent 9 days out the back of Barrier, Arid, Mokes late March. Snapper fishing around Arid and nearby was as good as I have ever had there. Also heaps of Trevally not far from Arid this year which are a sashimi treat as well as great whole fish Hapuka baits. Hapuka fishing out from the Mokes was over in 3 just drops. As much fish as we could eat and give away. Good season for everything except couldn't find any XOS kingies this year for some reason. Even though we travel there ourselves we still love watching your NZ shows and your enthusiasm for what is a pretty special place.

    nothing funny about ripping out a fish's eyeball... y'all kinda lost the plot there which ruined the video... no wonder fishermen have such a bad name these days. Obviously you couldn't help hooking it there but all that childish laughing about it did my head in.
