Slow Jigging Reef Fish (catch, clean, cook)

G'day Legends! This week I headed out to chase down some fish on the jigs. With a plan of heading deep I ended up making a split second decision to stop at a shallower spot and it produced some epic results!! After getting my fishing fix I head home and sashimi up two new species to see if they live up to the hype! Hope you enjoy the episode!

Happy Sunday mad dogs! How’s the guts on that big red! Absolute beast of a thing! Question: What’s your favorite jig for snapper and pearlies??

[yeahnahyeah]

[ClayTallStories]

I am lovin the slow jigging mate. No stinky baits to stuff around with and those parabolic rods are just awesome.

[lachiej_fishing]

hey mate ! I know you probably won’t see this but I just want to say that, your one of the many people that inspire me fishing wise to get me to where I am now. I seen your video ages back and I’m like I wanna be like him so I started a YouTube channel and made a trout video to start up with lol.

But thankyou, I’m sure u inspire so many people around the country. Keep up the good work 😊 and they are freaking huge snapper lol

nice catch brother! watching from Cebu, Philippines🇵🇭👍

[mathewcampbell]

Great vid as usual this week mate. On the sashimi front, I always like to alternate between in/out of dipping. That way you can really get the taste of the fish without being swamped by zing, zang and salt.

Hey Legend,
We used to catch and cook up gurnard back home in NZ. Start at the tail cut under dorsal fin up to back of neck, cut down to backbone.
Use a rag holding its head pulling it down breaking its neck, then put your finger into gut cavity pulling down towards the tail . Skins it and
Guts it all in one. Then with your filleting skills Wip them off. 🍻🍻

Man, that snapper is thick! would've been around 80cm? slow jigging is so much fun, gurnard are quite good for sashimi, long-fin big eye looks like a delicacy, well done as always Sammy!

[Cammo-vpgl]

Another great show mate. I catch a very similar Gurnard in Victoria and treat the fillets as if they were flathead fillets, very good eating. I’ve also been using the same decor tub (smaller unit with a vacuum seal lid) and as soon as the fillets come off the fish they’re in the tub then in the fridge in the boat, it’s bloody brilliant. I also keep wasabi and soy in the boat too - just in case 🍽🎣🍺🍺🍺🇦🇺
