I’ve watched and followed just about every sailing channel and as a fellow Canadian have a special affinity for both of you! What you share with us is awesome! That said, I cannot get over how many more fish and large fish you guys land. So, hats off to you and thanks for sharing these bits with us. I really look forward to the rest of the videos and hope so much that when we set off, we get to meet you out there. Thanks so much! Sk in the UK.
Ben, thanks for the tutorial, I can't think of a better one from a sailing channel and I date back to the beginning of the genre. Y'all are just awesome!
Hi guys. My Canadian cousin took me salmon fishing in lake Ontario 3 years ago. What an exciting day! We caught plenty, big and tasty ones. Thank You for your advice and most of all, for your cheerful vibes. I will put your teachings into practice in the summer.
Amazing update.! Thank you so much, for sharing this day. As always be safe, and look we look forward to hearing from you as soon as able. Thank you again...!
I'm a mainlander...and I think Ben and Ashley have had many drinks before this video !! Haha but we appreciate the fishing instruction . Where are you now ? Still in Paradise? Keep up the great videos .
Nice advice - I watch my share of sailing/cruising videos and it seems few of them know how to properly troll lures and/or have undersized equipment. Can't go wrong with cedar plugs and daisy chains - every cruiser should have em. Don't forget those mahi will follow one another to the surface. Get the first one close to the boat (when there aren't sharks) and keep big metal on hand for the followers. tight lines and fair seas.
I love y’all videos you two are a awesome couple I’m planning on buying a catamaran in like maybe 10 years from today and escaping this crazy city life selling my company and vehicles and GONE to paradise and hopefully someday meeting you two hopefully I’m so excited and can’t wait just waiting on my kids to get into college and independent before I leave out but anyways I just wanted to say how much I love watching the videos y’all post and again can’t wait to get out there.
Omg you guys are so intoxicating , it is so hard to stop watching your videos I love how happy you guys are. You have open my eyes to new possibilities new adventures in life specially because I was born in an island in the Caribbean ( CUBA) and I miss so much the beautiful blue Ocean I am so pumped hopefully one day I can have my boat B size you guys. keep doing what you doing it is fantastic it is inspiring you guys have a beautiful spirit love it. Merry Christmas
Love your Videos! You need to get a TV deal! I've caught a few with a hook shoved thru a Champaign cork with sliced up tied on Christmas Ribbons! Tuna, Mahi and a Marlin took if for good!
Holy shark fins! You two are hilarious 😂. Talk about personality. Ok, this doesn't usually happen when I watch video's from the dozen or so sailing channels I'm subscribed to. I was so captivated with this clip that it felt like I was there, on your boat. Gawd I could have very well been the person behind the camera. Good job guys. Great content and very well put together. Love it! AWESOME! 👍👌👏
Your hand lining technique is excellent and would make for a good episode. It’s the same I learned jigging for codfish in New England. Hand position. Not getting feet tangled in line (oops big fish grabbed my fish and me because I was tangled). Also an explanation of the use and how to rig the surgical tubing.
Im Hawaii we troll between 6 and 10 knots, sometimes even a lil faster, Here we connect the lure to the bird, it helps keep the bird in the water..We will run them as Far back as 50 yards or even more behind the boat..
Okay the first thing I'd like to say is this channel is awesome. I just have a question for you. I have noticed that sometimes when you catch fish you pour something down the mouth and I'm wondering what it is and why you do that. I hope this channel never ends keep up the really really good work on this channel. By the way I live in Kelowna BC
I love those red headed lures. We call them Qantas lures, you know, after the Australian airline. Had a huuuuuge GT climb all over it recently. Also lured up a 40 kg Spanish Mackeral.
That's amazing! I'm following you from Ireland. Love your channel. Just for knowledge. Whenever you catch an adult Mahi it should always be followed by a second one as they normally swim with their partner. So one male and one female. :)
Noooo, they swim in large packs, considering you come from Ireland I dont think you can talk. I spearfish in 200 meters about 15 nautical miles off shore and all you do is wait and then they come in their schools.
I think you guys should get into simple bait making with wood or even molding and molding would be quite fine to do on a boat because all you need is a mold and some plastics(soft or hard) and the hooks and your set so maybe think about it just to pass some time
You should try a trolling lead in rigged 10 to 20 ft in front of your lures when you’re speed is up. Wahoo can’t resist a faster lure. Most Pelagics can swim over 30 mph. Awesome videos!
You guys rock, and have one of the best channels on RU-vid ! Thank for the tips. You said you take the teasers out of the water over 6 knots. So over 6 knots you just use the lures? So the best thing to do would be to put the teasers on the hand line and the lure on the rod? Your thoughts?
Love the videos guys. Keep them coming. We start our adventure in 4 weeks from the same spot you started yours. Looking forward to pushing off from Grenada Marine to follow in your footsteps.
Watching Girls, bikinis and beers blue water sailing, then y'all popped up. Subbed and liked. Really enjoying the "how to-z" of fishing from a sailing perspective. Learning so much from y'all, thanx so much. Hoping to soon be out on there and have our first Sushi on deck. Really enjoying the education.
Hello guys this is another great video, every time I see a video I go deep in to it I feel like im there and when the video is over I go back to real life. Love you guys. From Lakeland FL
That was VERY IMPRESSIVE!! That had to be a lot of work to film and land the fish! I’ve only had that happen once and it was nothing like thaaaat. Thanks!! I just subscribed!
Excellent video. . A good beer in my humble opinion is very important also. . I'm thinking you must have a large freezer or be close to shore . . On my trip from Newport RI To Sint Maarten we filled the freezer and had to put away our fishing lines . .
I knew you had some kind of crazy good trick for fishing...unreal..! Never seen about this teasers..but just some girls ...back in the time...:) ( did not work on me though)...great video as usual gracias !!
Awesome thanks for the fishing tips.. How heavy a line do you use on your fishing poles. .. There are some cool videos of mahi and frigate birds chasing flying fish simultaneously even while the fish is gliding through the air... just google " flying fish hunt"
When I worked offshore the hands would come get white rubbery plastic nipples off the big 5 gallon milk containers and splay the ends with a knife to make lures for dolphin (mahi mahi) fish.
Great video guys! Mahi mostly travel in pairs and if you hook one you sometimes get its mate as well, always worth putting another line out for it. Great channel great content!
not totally sure about that Woody, I've only ever seen Mahi in schools and if you hook the bull/male and trail it behind the boat often the whole school will often follow it, least ways, thats been my experience. Awesome video tho and sound advice.
Looks like its lemon and aloe, but I too would like to know why. It couldn't be to sanitize because, you'd need to put it in more crevices than the gills, so it most likely is to kill it buy again, why and how?
Wow, that bull is a trophy Mahi.....if you had the other half....lol! Countless offshore fishing trips off the NC coast and I've never pulled in one like that!
Should you not be using a safety harness sailing even in calm weather --what would happen if one of you slipped in --how long would it take to turn around ?
@@Hawks1980 I have sailed a lot ,in all weather, some of the stuff that happened on this boat when they started out was crazy . They have tightened up a little since then .
I have sent some q:s about fishing whilest sailing and here were the answeres. I would like to kniw what reel u use on the rod and what line there is? Me and Mrs where looking at some catamarans last weekend in Sweden. We will get there too eventually. Have a safe trip.
