How-to Slow pitch jig in 200m + 

Happy Sunday legends! Pretty happy with this first drop effort! What’s your best first cast special?!?

I agree with you on the anchovy people need to harden up and get used to eating them... 😁👍

Whats going on Mr Hitzke.... I really enjoy your videos. Bro, here in Venezuela what we do with really slimy fish like the bar cod that you caught, when its time to clean it, we grab a couple of limes, cut them in half and with the cut part we rub the fish skin while you squeeze the lime. This helps to break down the slime and makes it easier to handle the fish when cleaning it. Cheers mate

Loving the vids sammy It's been 6 or 7 years since I've gotten a gemmie, I used to fish browns off Sydney a lot with my uncle. We got them up to about 15kg. And my all time favorite eating fish. Just now in the market for a bigger boat to head out for some deep water dropping and some pelagic, Your vids have inspired me to get back out in the deep blue.

Been at work all day but this just makes my day seeing a good old Sammy Hitzke fishing vid in ya feed🍺🎣🐟

Hey Sammy, that fish looked like some sorta Gurnard and keep up the good work with your deep water fishing. I really enjoyed that mate. Cheers Chris.

“Doesn’t feel like a ball sack” what does a ball sack feel like sammy? Great vid so far keep it up man

Gem fish hold together in cooking, so great for marinara, chowder, fish pie etc. Thought it was a great episode, cracked me up a couple of times. 😁

I've come to the conclusion that, in terms of fishing repertoire, Sammy is the most complete fisherman on RU-vid. Yep, that's my conclusion after watching thousands of hours of fishing videos. 😊

Love it, really uncertain if this is a fishing, cooking or comedy but love it 🤣 Thanks for sharing Sammy, insightful!

Estava procurando este video..que eu acho perfeito muito bom i simpatico...👍👍

Doesn’t get much better then that! A first first cast!! Well done 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Nice mustard jig very quick set, yes sir two pitches and boom.

1st drop Bar cod on the jig, you lucky man!!! that pizza looks 100 times better than garlic prawn one you get from the shop, nice one, Sammy!

In the culinary world, cilantro outranks anchovies. From a wise old Aussie. Cheers, mate!

I'm jealous of your rod 🥰🥰😍😍😍

On ya Sammy, first drop! Well done and finished in true Sammy style, not having that net ready 😂. That pizza looked Rippa too. Who needs Shayne hey. 😂 🤙🏻

Got to love those first drop feels, good cod on the jig mate 🤙😎.

Good to see you trying new ground out wide mate. Got the bug of the deep dropping. Always I good start point and I move in if I do no good out wide. Better to work your way in then the other way just in case that weather decides to bite ya. Good work mate. I’ve got some new marks around where your at I’ll send em through mate. 👍

The visa you made looks delicious. Thanks again for the fun video!

Anchovy gang 🤙🏻🤙🏻

Done well mate congrats on the Barcod and the Gemfish

Congrats on another great video...bar cod on a jig is awesome...and I chucked every single time you took a jab a Shauno...hilarious!! That pizza looked fantastic too...keep up the good work and hope you hit 40k and then 50k subs soon!!

Nice cod Sammy, biggest bar cod I’ve seen was 60.75kg. Will never forget that fish pure monster

Lov the catch and cook champion

Great video mate! That pizza looked wicked 👌👌 Some pretty big shots fired at Shauno to 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

One day you will have ya net setup before you catch ya first fish🤣 another crackin vid Sammy! Love the deep drop stuff

Would've been perfect with a bit of corriander hahaha 👍

Nice deep water spot. That gemfish basically took a jig as big as itself dang haha

From pelagicpursuit to sammy great arvo watching fishing shows

Going fishing Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before chairman Dan locks down all of Vic! Never mind the pizza tray Sammy, invest in a pizza stone, you can thank me later by sending me a free hat 🤣🤣🤣🤣🍺🍺🍺🎣🎣🎣🇦🇺🇦🇺

Bet you were thirsty after all those anchovies. Top looking pizza 👍

Another great episode mate, maybe you should join the 4wd 24/7 boys for some 4x4 and fishing.

Nice small gemie

We call those (cucumber fish) Montague mullet. We get em from 20 to 500 metres and they seem to be good bait.

Cheers for the video m8...., when you opening up a pizza shop🤣

Looks great, pick the pizza base tomato paste, has some nice herbs in and adds heaps of flavour and sprinkle origami over top.

Man you have patience and energy for deep drop jigging. I'd be spewing if i miss a drift or miss a hook up

"my first bit of advice is to grow up" haha made my day

Nice work there Sammy!! That's some good eating although I gotta say that rod looks a little cheesy for deep dropping but maybe it's deceiving and stronger than it looks!!😎👍👍

Gem fish are awesome eating

Great video again Sammy. Tell us how the gemfish tasted.

When you’re fishing in this depth are you using your outboard to hold you or just drifting along?

What combo is this that your running and pe rating? Thanks mate. Awesome vids!

Good job bro,from indonesia

you guys ever come up to Okinawa?

Amazes me how much stick these "light" rods have these days nothing like the pool cues of years ago.

Hi Sammy, nice video again. Have been enjoying your fishing video very much. Heard from the video that you have got the C Map reveal. Does it show the reef at 24 and 36 fathom? Thank you for your time.

One day we will cross paths at the ramp. Great content. Doing well to keep up with your daughter on the ground. Family 1st. The other stuff really does not matter. Love someone who has been forced into early retirement due to trying to work too hard. Boss was a prick and ended up with busted body and head.

You should try buffalo mozzarella..it’s the bomb

hello from Louisiana "sportsmans paradise" first time watching and im a fan. havent done much saltwater fishing. i mainly fish for largemouth bass and an occasional redfish or snook. my question is ...the first fish you caught is it in the groupers family? thanks and i cant wait to watch some more of your shows!

Shaun’o is going to watch this video and laugh at what you said at the start

How do y like this apples Shauno his ripping into ya😂😂

That intro never gets old

Another great vid mate. Congrats on the bar cod. How was the gemfish? My mother used to buy gemfish when I was a teen (and that was a good few weeks ago now). It was always a very sweet and juicy fish. I'm wondering if it was even the same species though as it was always quite a bit thicker than yours from memory, but that might have been commercialisation or just bad memory.

Awesome video .... nice pizza bro

Great videos Sammy, saw your vid on Mahi Mahi a while ago, need to buy outriggers, what brand/type did you have and where to buy. Cheers

Great video mate

Looks like you're fishing with florocarbon on your reel. What test are you using?

nice work////

Awesome vid motivation for a fishing charter trip what moon phase do you recommend for offshore or doesn’t matter?

If you can source a decent sized scaler bag maybe try de-sliming them on the way home? Just a thought.

Nice musk and COD fish Sammy . Why going finishing by your salf.Loves going with you fishing man...🤔

Do a green eye catch and cook

Good fish bud. . What life jacket you wearing and how does it work

how good

Love anchovies on pizza , more pizza for me when the haters go on about them !!

for 250m+ what you need is an old level wind reel + stainless bolt & welding rod + old cordless 12v wrench, no need for an expensive electric reel.

What setup is that, mate ?

Mate can I ask what boat your working in? Size, motor etc.

What was that knife you used to skin the fish? Looked like a bread knife.

Wolf Herring?

Is that the Harry from WA / Broome ?

How far out are you?

What's the name of this fishing rod?

what microphone do you use? It sounds pretty good to be fishing offshore.

You forgot the coriander ;)

How do you bleed out your fish?

Your mystery fish was a cucumber fish.

Wouldnt bother spiking that first cod... poor buggers been out of the water for 15 minutes while ya blabbering 🤣

Looks like a small gemfish good eating and smoking.

“Best 1st drop” was on my mates “red hot never fails to deliver” jew spot at Weipa, an I got not 1 but 2 one after the other 10ft plus gummie sharks while the other 3 guys caught jewies.......go figure eh🤷‍♂️

Bro Pe size?

give shauno hell

Hey man, what was that cheese? Some of our red snapper we cooked last night. instagram.com/p/CCQ0VxwJ2wG/

And the moral of this trip is 'Don't take Seano with you ' !! lol.. A gread day's fishing, I'm so sick with jealousy....ps, if you think that bar cod is slimy then you haven't caught / handled a Atlantic wolffish ( Anarhichas lupus )
