MEGA Squid Caught Kayak Fishing! 

hahah, feels good to be back chasing squid! Glad you enjoyed mate!

Most definitely! Cracking squid there

Cheers mate! Hopefully your free soon!

Thanks heaps Chris, appreciate the nice words. Stay safe too mate, cheers

I enjoyed making this video so I'm glad you enjoyed watching it too! Cheers as always mate, appreciate it!

One day hopefully!

Hahahah cheers mate

Hahahha Victoria will convince me if it gives me a big jew!😆

that doesnt usually happen, even if he had a chum line going worst ive seen i sharks attacking the chum bucket or biting the back of the boat. where im from only the white sharks will bump boats. a good thwap on the nose with the gaf handle usualy sends them on their way

Thank you for the kind words mate! I honestly don't think there is a way to stop squid from inking in your boat, I've been trying to figure it out for years hahah. The one thing I might suggest is net them over the side of the boat then bring a bag or something over the side and chuck them in that quickly!

Cheers heaps mate, I was hoping for a big squid but wasn't expecting one that big ahaha. When they get to that size they fight like different animals!

Exactly right, also don't have to fish right next to people who don't enjoy me filming hahah. Keen for future trips thats for sure

Have not had any issue yet, fingered crossed none into the future too

Victoria in Australia

I know there's big snook around there, could be one of those. Might have to give it a little crack!

Cheers mate

Thanks mate, I do love my squid fishing!

That’s such a shame. I’m dying to get out on my kayak once out of stage 4

What is stage 3 and stage 4? You talkin bout cancer??

Left of Cowes boatramp

Nah wouldnt be too sure

Cheers mate, couldn't of asked for a better start to fishing off the new yak!

Yeah man. Bloody awesome

Cheers Peter! Still new to yak fishing so these tips and stuff are good to know and I will certainly take into account, thanks mate

@@NevsFishing Nev, I've been fishing from Hobies for over a dozen years (and I work at SLH) and while Pete is kind of right in saying what he did (capsizes have resulted from fumbling around in the back) this is far far more likely to happen on a less stable kayak, with an older, taller/heavier user with a fading sense of balance. There are those among us that prefer to have everything stored up back as well. A clean deck is a good, easy to fish from deck in my book, which is why I keep all my rods, including the ones in storage and the ones I am actively fishing with behind me. Scott takes a completely different approach to me, he's OK with a busy deck and I know Pete likes it that way as well. Most do. Kayak fishing is very much an individual sport and finding what works for you is all a part of the journey. We all fish in different ways, in different locations, most of us from different yaks. Through trial, error and experimentation you'll figure out your yak fishing game and it will happen fast... but you'll never stop learning. There is no right or wrong way when it comes to a lot of these things. Either way, you're off to a ripper start. We gotta get you sorted with a better camera boom though :-) Nice vid mate, and nice squid!

@@yakabout Thanks heaps for the extra insight Josh, it certainly seems that what works best is whatever works for you when it comes to yak fishing. Super excited to start doing more trips and to figure out a setup that works for me and obviously catch some good fish along the road! I certainly appreciate how much you boys have helped me out with your knowledge, cheers mate and glad you enjoyed!

Ahahaha, it had to happen sooner or later

Wont find much better for the price then the pa14, especially all the comes with it. 2nd hand Hobie Outback worth a look too.

Cheers mate! I honestly have no clue what brand the net is, I pinched it off Dad haha!

SLHobie, they sell some awesome wet weather gear

@@NevsFishing awesome I'll look on their website, I'm getting a new hatch under warranty my hatch lid doesn't close flush on one side.

Ohhh at least warranty had it covered ey. You got the compass also?

@@NevsFishing yes I have the compass camo one, my local dealer told me to put grease or silicoke around the rubber seal and push down firmly on the lid it didn't work so I ended up taking the whole thing in for them to look at it.

Hahah cheers!🤙🤙🎣

Thanks 👍

Couldn't of asked for a better first squid and trip!

Cheers mate! Only issue is hard to put hours in with this trash weather

I'm sure a hungry fish would have a crack at the pilchard, only issue would be if it stays on the squid jag.

No better feeling then when the bottom starts pulling back haha, cheers mate!

Happy to hear you enjoyed, cheers mate!

Honestly anywhere around Cowes boatramp has been going off. Give that a crack

Cheers Scott🤙

Yeah certainly in the future

From the servo I think hahah. Can get them online too

That could be something to attempt, heard of that area being very productive for jew

We also get those cuttlefish you are referencing but these are southern calamari. Big squids.

100% big squid the cuttlefish u talk about would eat that

Awesome yaks! Cheers mate :)

@@NevsFishing I want to get a mega squid decal on the side 😎😉 or blue camo wrap 😁

Nice mate, what yak you go with?

The one like my mates out at Yamba

Cheers mate!

Hahah cheers mate

Braid casts further, I use 12lb braid and a shimano sephia rod
