Tiny hook lands monster fish (catch, clean, cook) 

Happy Sunday legends!! How epic was that?!? Let’s hear your best fishing fluke!! Comment below 💪💪

Hi Sammy, The exact same thing happened to me in South Africa. Also fishing for live bait when a Cute (Spanish mackerel) took the live bait. The hook in his mouth broke loose but caught him on a second hook on the body. Also took me 22min and was also a 7.5kg. I relived my catch when watching yours. You just can't explain the feeling in catching something that size on 5kg tackle without any leader line etc. Good job.

Imagine what the yakkas were thinking getting dragged along behind the silver death

😂 as soon as I saw you start cooking the coriander I knew what was going to happen haha good on ya mate

Another class one mate ,love it . My uncle used go across to the pub while i kept guard of the eel rods when i was young and he stayed a bit long one night so i walked over to check up on him. He sat me down for a shandy and over an hour later we went back to find a nice fresh water trout swimming around on my rod . tasted sweet and was my first wild brown trout . Keep it up sammy your a legend bud. Cheers

What a life ! What a life!! What a life you have made for yourself!!!!! I love your gear and I love your one man production. I know it ain’t easy but you make it look so. You got the gift Sammy and I’m happy for you

Shocked me with the coriander 😂 I seriously thought you were gonna eat that much coriander 😂 excellent advice with the coriander too!

Hahaha that Corriander at the end had me pissing myself...propper thought you were going to add it to the taco! Awesome snare on the Macky too mate...awesome vid. Reckon you had a little glow up on the Ports too 😂😂🍻🍻

Had a similar experience the other day. Hooked something sing my little 10-year-old Sienna 2500 8lb braid 12lb leader and 25 minutes later pulled up a 16kg tong tail tuna.

Good to see you have your handles on the “right” side of the reel 👍

Another cracking video mate!! Awesome solo effort and that mackie was the icing on the cake. And I nearly choked on my dinner when you wilted the coriander and chucked it in the bin. Brillant!!

Hey Sammy i had your experience today . I was fishing the small bay rhs of the Jumpinpin Bar. Landed a 42cm bream around the weed beds. This was one crazy bream. My line was entangled all around it's fins. It didn't have the hook anywhere in it's body. Just tangled up in the line. Bloody amazing. Been fishing for 40 years and never seen that happen before.

My best fluke was when i fo a tangle in my line so just kept flicking it back and forth like a fly rod and ened up fowl hooking a bream in the back. Great video Sammy, enjoy watching them every sunday

Crazy way to catch a Spanish! Always coming through for us on sundays!! Can’t wait for the new merchandise ! Stay safe Sammy.

31:29 lol 😂. That Spaniard catch was insane Sammy. Loved the vid looking forward to next weeks 🍻

Hahaha that coriander joke never gets old great vid mate great work

my best fishing fluke was when I was fishing my pontoon went up to get a drink and came back to an 80cm mangrove jack

I got snagged by a bream and lost my gear then casted out and caught the same fish with my gear

Fishing seem to be very hot in the SEQ region lately. Keep up the great content Sammy, always great to watch.

When I first saw the title of this video, FLUKE I thought you hooked up with a big Halibut or Flounder but your playing Cowboys and Mackerels, lassoing your Spanish by the tail on such light tackle was epic since you couldn't turn his head to turn his runs.... Great fight, great fish❗😜❗

Wicked stuff mate. What a wild hook up! loved the videos so far. Learning loads of hand tips and tricks. I may have one for you for your next Spanish? Try skinning the Mack's head to tail once you have the fillets off. I've noticed its 10x easier following the sinew grain. Keep up the great work.

Sammy, you are the Wizard of Oz or more accurately, the Tin Man. I don’t believe it, a catch of a lifetime mate. You’re unbelievable 🤙🏻

Thanks for sharing mate ! Once in a life time catch ... Always enjoying watching keep them coming !

Sammy you’re a legend mate....what!!!! A mackerel on a bait jig lol love ya work😜

One in a million Sammy, how bloody awesome.

Great catch and great vid as always!

Epic video mate!!! More patients than me to get that Spanish!!! Love to hear more about the gear you use, kg rating on the rod and line size reel you use etc?? Throw some brands in, no doubt they would love it! Keep the quality videos coming mate! Only issue with this one is I love coriander 😂. Let me know when you want to do a rookie video on the boat 😉. Looking forward to some new merchandise next week 🤙👌🤙👌🤙👌🤙👌🤙👌🤙

When I was about ten I was winding my bait in, lifted it out of the water and a John Dory jumped out of the water and landed at my feet!!

awesome stuff, loving the couta on the bait jig !!

Oh my that was an exciting vid! Funny stuff with the coriander!

love your description of port. made my night

what a catch!!! would be super stoked as well!!!

Sammy you bloody legend that has to be the catch of the year well done high 5's for that mate 👍

That’s unreal mate you never disappoint 👌 great vid

Amazing how you catch that Spanish Mac. The recipe was awesome too.

Awesome video Sammy 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Sammy, we have had theses fish tacos so many times it’s not funny. My wife loves them. It’s simple and amazingly tasty. Love them.

That spano on bait jig is fking unreal, totally insane! Epic catch mate 👍👍

Oh lordy I laughed at your coriander shenanigans. Priceless. Also to your question about easy were the fish tacos? I would say catching that beast on a bait jig wasn't particularly easy. The rest looked simple enough.

Love ya work Sammy 😊

Sammy Hitzke can catch a Spanish on a bait jig that wasn’t even hooked, when I got fishing I can’t barely catch a cold 😂

Great video mate👍👌, was looking forward to this vid.

Classic coriander joke mate! I look forward to the merchandise drop. Another great episode

Great video Sammy very entertaining to watch u lov it

Well done on the Mackrel. Fluke catch for sure. You should have chucked some coconut butter in with the coriander, makes it easier to clean the pan!!!! 🤣

Great work there Sammy

Ha Sammy Great vid and the best cooking advice I'VE EVER HAD

Thats so crazy! I didn’t think a hook that small could catch a fish like that!! Great job!

I caught a swivel that was in the water that still had a flathead on the hook.

I can't congratulate you enough. When are we gonna go fishin' Cheers. That's fantastic.

Epic fight on that bait jig mate, also what a turn for those coriander...

The cilantro prep tip at the end was very useful 👌

Big smile here for ya Sammy, can't believe your luck.

Epic.. love your videos mate

Another epic vid mate who would of thought that bait jig would of held

Caught a mulloway on a circle hook that wasn’t even hooked, just refused to let go, legit fell out at my feet once on the beach...

Me and my mate caught the exact same fish at the same time

I love the long videos mate always look forward to a Sunday arvo

That coriander was hilarious!!! lmao!!!

Sammy Mate i always enjoy your vids BUT, (just a little but). if possible can you give away a bit of detail of the locations when get your bites,...no im not asking for gps co ordinates (send them to me if you wanta hit legend status!). But how deep, type of reef, how far of shore, etc

Great video mate 👍🍻

So, who got a little excited then hahaha Great vid, cheers.

Great vid mate. Glad I dont live in qld my Mrs has a massive crush on ya sammy! Good job with the coriander 🤣

Sammy Hitzke just levelled up.

Nice day out Sammy, the Mac was special, must have had your name on it... your in Port on Port so cheers

Stone's ginger wine in the top of the stubby to keep you warm in the waders was always a go to if you have a surplus of beers (however that happens) and no port.

Yewwww great catch mate love the vids tight lines 🎣

The gods were certainly with you my friend and a bit of skill on your end goodonya

Nice work seems like fish just follow u wr ever u go haha nice one sammy

Thats amazing!

Where do you source your coriander? Looks great quality for mopping up the pan dregs

Haha nice work mate. Thats the kinda story ya tell at the pub over a few coldies, with the punch line being " even got 3 livies loaded on the rig to". With everyone one listening saying "bullshit haha"... You would have to reply yeah it is bullshit but iv got it on film yeeeew... Awesome vid again mate, thanks for the content.

Epic Catch bro!

Lucky hook up was at 4 beacons Moreton Bay when I also got a Mackerel on a cramps bait jig, was only a schooly but still 56cm and very tasty. Boom. Cheers have a goodn

Great capture Sammy!! Very impressive! I am 100% with the anti-coriander. Straight in the bin is the way to go!

Hey Sammy, on Thursday last week I was jigging some herring off Urangan Pier, I had the same thing with a herring with the bait jig bottom hook snared there little bugga around the tail I was going off couldn’t believe it! Well you just took it next level! Unreal mate! Happy fishing 🎣 🍻👍

Hey Sammy really enjoy your vids mate 👌👌 May I ask what is the brand of that squid jig you were using ???

That's got to be some kind of world record!!😵😂😂😂😂

Good people make their own luck Congratulations on a good fish Mate

Big up from Jamaica, lad!

That was just straight up luck with the Spanish. Just lassoed his ass instead of hooking him...that's crazy bro😎👍👍

Incredible mate well done on the fish how u didnt swear is beyond me haha

Absolutely amazing mate haha, but what surprised me the most was when you said "22 minutes of fight time" and the video was at 22 minutes whaaaat
