Deep drop fishing in 250m for cod 

Happy Sunday legends! Hope you enjoyed the episode! What do you reckon? Time to invest in an electric reel set up??

I am lusting after that shed! Keep up the fantastic vids boys .

You guys are the best fishing show on RU-vid Shawn is hilarious, much love from north Florida

Love your show👍. What would be nice to see is information regarding, fishing location, distances, how long the journey, tides and what to look for when fishing. All these things help keen fishos plan there next trip.

Loved watching the rigging up 👍👍👍

Great vid mate. Just what I needed on a dark and rainy day like today. Cheers 🍻

I could almost feel the pain when you lost 200m of braid 😂 good stuff boys so cool you got into some Barries! Flametail next #godeeper 🔥

Great vid Sammy, persistence pays! 👌 👌 👌

Nothing wrong at all gents. Having fun is the name of the game keep on rocking !!!!!!

Good Morning!😉 Your fishing equipment is very good, you caught beautiful fish congratulations. Hug and good fishing always.👍🎣

Congratulations guys!! So glad to see the deep dropping come good after ball sack city last time!! Never tried bar cod before..its now added to my list...

Gotta love when the new vids are out mate! Especially when you are featuring the one and only Shauno! 😂 #Struth

Shaun is taking over your fishing show. 😂😂

Almost done the video and I am loving it. Keep it up 🔥🔥🔥

It’s hard to find anything to hound on you guys for 😂 good fun watching your videos

Wow awesome video ! Barred up over Shaun’s shed lol 👌

Great vid as always gents. Hoo boy I got major shed jealousy...🎣👌👍

Well done lads !!!! One thing I notice is how hardy livies are, baratrauma affects all bought up but the livies go down and up and still kick around.

Top session boys. very enjoyable.

Another great vid mate. There’s an extra “bloke” element with Shauno involved. 😂😂 Needs to be more of it. 👌

I’m dying. Lmfao! Great intro! Try a slider rig instead of the three-way. Lots of trace off the swivel separating it from the mainline. I like the glow sleeve between the weight and swivel and a bead to protect my rod tip from the weight. Best wishes

in trinidad we use that size of bonito, fillet it and cut huge chunks, like 3” triangle pieces of bait and pin it on the hooks, so the small fish wont eat it all of before a big fish comes and wacks it, next time try the bonito big slabs.

Nice job Boys, Well Done. Sammy you really have to invest in one of those electric reels, or wait till Shauno's not looking, call it a Hitzke Tax!!

“Like a big kick in the deep sea ball sack” I’m dying 😆

Couple tips to maybe think about if your interested. 20-30lb single mono for cannon ball weight. They get stuck the least. Swivel on top and bottom of rig. First small fish you catch from area you fish, butterfly it or scissor spine it and keep it head to tail full length and put it on top hook and send it back down with a small glow squid on the hook. When you make your rig make top jumper little longer and swivel on mainline and by hook. If it wraps jumper line hook can still spin and it untangles once it gets to bottom.

Deep dropping is so much fun. The anticipation to see what you’re hooked is riveting . Keep up the great work. Tight lines .

Another great vid mate. You may notice a significant drop in the number of snags by using only the two hooks on the top of the jig. Those bottom hooks are always prone to getting wrapped up on the bottom.

Hitzke fishing goes 2.0 wenevaz shaunoz involved... made my Sunday....

Another awesome video mate, we have just had our spanish turn up in numbers so hopefully i will get out amongst them plus a new motor to get me there quicker, also got a custom short stroker rod due this week so got a lot of virgins to break in , hopefully get a video of my own up soon

I think it’s “Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance”. Mint video Sammy 💯💯

Shauns Fish in adventures I like it. Also use a bite leader on the jig then lighter leader then main so you don’t loose all your braid

Entertaining video well done mate

Ethan Massingham, youll love this guy, he is epic.

absolutely great content cant wait to get my boat

Nice Sammy love ya work

Very good catch sammy👏

Wooo, it's that time!

Great Vid Sammy.

Cheers fellas awesome

Nice one Mr Sam!

Bared up after playing with the ballsacks last time lol Good stuff lads

You guys make a great team.

Sick vid mate

Snell the hooks like a pro Sammy!

I see it mentioned a few times below but another method for line removal is basically shape up a map of Australia out of fencing wire like the old snapped off car aerials, put the two ends back in the chuck of a cordless drill and wind the line between essentially the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Great Australian Bight if you know what I mean. A "H" shape with a bit of meat in the middle!

giid vid Sammy love it legends

Let's go sammy!!!

Mate if you use 10/o’s you prevent getting the ball sacks. 😂😂 and any other small fish for that matter.

Sammy, I'm amazed why you don't have 360K subscribers. You have all the great content for us SEQ fisho's and mix up your trips, maybe a "collaboration" with the misses doing a sort of Hooked on Brooke is better than more "sac content!" We all share your tackle pain and check the boat for bananas but as they say Prior Propper Planning Prevents -iss Poor Performance. :)

Fish skin chips...the beasts from the deep are the best for it!

You need to make a unit you can fit into the chuck of the drill to help empty your spools when you are changing lines out just make a cylinder of pvc pipe , 2 circles of ply to fit the ends of the pvc pipe and a piece of dowel to put through the center of it long ways to put into the drill chuck , you can wind the line / braid onto it then cut through the line / braid to remove it .

Hey mate, did seano make his own rod locker? Any chance he could do a walk through of it?

that fishing shed is insane

Does Shauno have to winch everything??? haha Great job....

Top job mate roughly how far out do you have to go ? Glad to see you and Shauno doing well Congratulations

Crimps detract from your mono breaking strain by 30 percent blood knot simple and strong.

Get an empty line spool and jb weld it to something you can chuck in a drill to get the old line off your reels. Its a little bit quicker lol

deep dropping 101 !!

Just curious, what do you do with fish that you dont keep that "bulge" up when pulled from the depths. Do they die from it or can you save them and release?

I leave a few mm out of the crimp and burn a little ball on the end to prevent it slipping. All spearfishing rigs are done that way.

I literally just opened a beer and the notification pops up. How’s that for timing!? Spot on Sammy and Shauno you lucky dogs 🤙🏻

Sammy When you set up your droppers make sure that the distance between your swivels is at least double the distance of your droppers. This prevents the fish crossing over as if the do then some times you will lose one. We use 8/0 or 10/0- hooks and it does not hurt to snell 2 hooks on the top dropper and put a yakka or pilchard on it.

Fishing with the young Health Minister Greg Hunt 😂

those jigging reels have to be at least 6:1 retrieve ?might sound old school but have an old Penn senator setup with braid now that looks like a dinosaur compared to your gear. nice feed well done enjoyed the vid

If you want to unspool your reel quickly, get a stick that will fit in a drill. Tie the line to the stick and pull the trigger.

What crimps do you use I tried some for small bullsharks and they wouldnt crimp properly

Boom

Lots of species mate ! I'm a species hunter an this kind of fishing drives me crazy haha. Get yourself an electric

de-winding line Tip #3 cordless drill pencil or stick in chuck tie line on pencil and let er rip :)

It’s just not deep dropping if there’s no ball bags involved! That was sick fellas, first thing I did was google electric fishing reels :-)

Electric reels must surely take the challenge and fun out of it. No feel and flex and "play" the fish with feel. Just like winch on a 4x4 - push a button and away you go and it just pulls and pulls...

Just seen your drill😂

Good

Well done. What a feed but think it's time you get an electric reel.

Shauno's RU-vid "4WD 24-7" took me a minute but located it

Enjoyed that mate what gear is Shaun using

Why oh why is Shauno stripping his reel the hard way? I get a straightish stick and put in my drill, tie the end of the line onto the stick and open the bail arm and then press the drill trigger slowly to start and it will all wind off onto the stick nice and tidy to just throw in the bin! Hope to see you guys do this next time.... ha ha cheers from Emma.

Who shot the little samba on the wall in the shed m8 ? If you would like to see a proper one look up 40.5 inch sambar . It’s on my channel. Crap vid but the deer is worth a look . Nice one on the cod man we love deep dropping with the electrics 2 and just started jigging for ogleys as well got some big boy ling and blue eye last week . Thanks for another sick vid man always gets me keen

Sammy were you at south west rocks on Saturday

Great action! What depth were you fishing?

Yew

Hey Sammy, what camera are you using on your head?

Hey sammy, which video is it where you and shauno were catching the the fish use refer to as ballsacks.

Next time Shauno is unspooling his line, tape a 2L bottle or something else cylindrical to the end of a drill. Tie her on and let it rip. Saves heaps of time and you can respool the line on another reel if that's what you're about.

What size is the dinghy your using and still waiting for the invite sam shauno

Indonesian watching ✌️

Try some big diamond eye Daiwa 350g jigs, or Daiwa kohaga 200g jigs.

Also, bleed the bonito , cut out the blood line and have a feed. You will be surprised if you have never eaten it!

pain full watching shauno, de spool with a drill and a cylindrical rod. I would like to add my Sundays aren't my favourite just for a roast anymore.

How fucking good is that. Persistence

Next time you get a green eyed shark nock some fillets up you will not regret it

gosh cant believe shauno 4wd is also here...

They start fishing at 10.30

No more waeco shauno?

Come see us in WA , We get the bar cods upwards of 20kg

Nice hat man, where can i get those. 3:06

Get a cordless drill and take your line of your reel that way it is the only way

Invest in a daiwa seaborg

Proper preparation prevents pathetic performance

what happened to all that line baha why is it all separated and not ust one long strip 😂💀
