    Nice boat set up! Your longline hauler is 12 volt? Can I ask what manufacturer and model as I would be interested in getting one for my Aquafish. Do you ever push up to the banks south of Alderney, there’s a few Tubbies there.

    Thanks a lot, yes 12v electra mate tuna brute iii, made in USA Yes I do go up towards Alderney, see the other Longlining video where I catch a couple of turbot ‘Longlining for turbot’ There will be more videos to come where I hopefully catch some larger fish and not just dogfish 🐟

    I used to snapper and commercial fish in the open gulf of mexico on a 65 foot bonner hull boat. I am quite familiar with the use of a deck reel and big spool hydraulic reels for tuna and sword fish. Personally i am glad that that chapter of my life is over. I enjoyed coastal net,and purse seine net fishing more than the off shore misery of intense long line fishing.

    Interesting compilation. Fishing personalities I suppose, are a bit like food, some types you just don't like. RG, who I have never met, but watched quite a bit of his escapades, for me is no ambassador for angling, certainly on the sea, demonstrating a questionable skill base and irritatingly, never forgetting to remind his audience that he is a famous actor ; not for me in either format. JW I thought was a rather humble man happy to engage with those keen anglers hosting him, and share the diversity of his undoubted skill, particularly on freshwater. But then I met him and my favourable impressions were erased. Anyway poor chap has died now, I think spending his retirement years in Thailand

    Yes watched those and the wicked tuna guy you picked out IS very good. The Alaskan crabbers are a group well on their own and I expect you get what you see. RG would never a a hero of mine; not my type at all, too noisey. JW was a real surprise as he had fished with Roger Bayzand who vouched for him, but not for me or my chum.
