Rebuild that Senator. They are actually great reels. You can replace/upgrade the drag washers to address the burn ones. Then upgrade the frame to stop it flexing and the handle for a better grip.

You my lady....are a scream!!!! Love watching you as your rye sense of humer is THE BOMB!! Nothing makes a person feel better (well almost) than laughter! Just started watching you all recently and enjoy it so much as always smieling..shit cant spell that! You two should have way more subscribers and I bet if I asked certian questions you would probobly give some sort of answer. As the La Veg bnd have too many secrets and are good but I have noticed some problems. Like she wont read any coments..And he used to have to get half in the bag before he could talk to the camera! Now all their vids are so rushed and over edited and cut so short that Ive lost total interest. And Delos to much dirtyness on that boat with comment he made about hairs everywhere and lots tits and ass shit and some is good but drifted away on land alot. You two are pure fun and make me smile alot both funny but ashley cracks me up! Lots of good material too. But only watched a few here and there as have just discovered you and dont know how to put in a order. PS The wynns make me puke cuz I know someone else sailed their boat to where they are now and they caught a flight! Cuz they never sailed alone and film everything but that long trip from panama to the south Pacific seems to be staged. Thats my best guess besides she couldnt be away from clothing stores that long! And than theirs Capt Rick...He has attention defesit disorder as every vid he says "What do you want me to mke a vid of?" I swear at least every other one! But once in awhile he will shut up and just film with no one talking and make the best vids Ive ever seen! Like getting up one morning and just filming the sails, water, sky, wind, etc. Best vid ever! But you have it all and I will enjoy watching. Thanks!

catch only what you need.
only to feed you and your family; private sale of fish is wrong.
eventually everyone wants to go fishing because its fun! yes... but then they catch more than they need and sell it for profit depleting the natural resource
I live in Hawai`i and trust me the private sale of reef and big fish is ruining their populations.

Just wondering, you caught all those big fishes, do you just eat a snippet of the fish (assuming you eat them) and just throw all the rest of the fish away? It would be a shame to throw away good food when there are starving people in some parts of the globe.

i have fished my entire life and i can honestly say that i absolutely love that you guys are not the most knowledgeable(no offense) but that you want to learn and you get into these huge schools of Yellowfin, Wahoo, and Dorado. I will say that you need to pack your reels 90% with a 60 lb braid and then put about 100 yards of 60-100 lb mono for the leader line. You will never get spooled again. I just subscribed to your channel because i love your attitude about life and MY GOD!!!!!! if you are ever around South Florida then my wife and i would pay you thousands of dollars to let us sail with you for like a week or something where i can fish with your husband/boyfriend...? and just be out on the water! I would pay $3,000 easily.

The video of the "big Fish" you show (your Rod and reel are upside down . Bait or jigs should be cedar plugs or small to medium skirted lures red green blue and pink are good colors. Heavier lure in a rough windy sea lighter in calm things that swim pushing water or dive push water and then swim down with bubbles.  The senator has a Drag called a star drag btw they kiiled allot of fish in there day . Top shot of Mono Backing is braid Shimono 2 speed (thumbs. Up)Tug means set the hook. Never give any slack keep the line tight. your still moving so it also creates string on the line and will dump a larger amount off the reel. Wahoo fastest fish you can catch 40-50 MPH Ginsu knife very long first and 2nd runs. Hoo's have very sharp teeth and will cut through mom like butter and even braided line that's why of you know there are Wahoo use wire leader.  Stake them when cleaning the fish. they also like warmer water and things that move fast in a wash. the turbulence your wake is creating looks like a school of bait fleeing a predator. Also turn off the clicker when your reeling in the fish. Mahi go ballistic when you gaff them of put them aboard. a spray bottle of 151 rum or tequila in the gill knock them out for a little bit till you get them in a fish box. Well thanks for the fun . Just remember the definition of a fisherman is …. a jerk on one end of the line waiting for a jerk on the other end. :)

Must be careful of ciguatera poisoning from pelagic species such as large wahoo and spanish mackerel. These species often spend a lot of time right on reefs and eating lots of reef fish meaning the toxin can accumulate in the flesh. People on the east coast of Australia where i live are often very cautious of keeping larger wahoo and mackerel because they spend so much time on the GBR eating reef fish.

Buy a Shimano Tiagra 80W if you really want to have a chance of landing a reasonable sized Yellowfin Tuna/Marlin. Also buy up some Pakula Lumo Sprocket lures these are my go to lures for marlin across multiple areas and disciplines.

Okay, my First Mate went mad over fishing when we first started sailing about nine years ago, so she will love this vid. She now owns eight rods and about six reels, along with two tackle boxes. When she sets out to learn something, she goes all out. She has caught many fish and lobster (oh yea, she has three lobster traps), so she keeps us fed when we sail the islands. I have shared this with her on our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/sailbeforesunset/) so she will probably subscribe and watch this vid. VERY informative, and I have just put one of the Shimano TLD 50 reels in our cart on Amazon because I know she will want one. We're about to untie the lines for the last time and sail south into retirement, so the information on the reel and line you used will come in handy.

Great video, with some impressive fish! I don't think there is a nautical term opposite to 'ahoy', closest I can think of is 'avast', meaning 'cease'. Also, at the beginning it sounds like you said 'tenant', which is someone you rent a house to. I think the word you're looking for is 'tenet'. Thanks for the video!

Fish's better than chicken anyway, but when You do not catch fish, buying the chicken alive does rid You of a couple problems in one go: You'll know exactly how long it was dead before You prepare it, and You can see the health condition as long as it still has feathers to spread its own. I'd still prefer the fish any day. Chicken just can't compete with a predator fish, can it?

Cool video,
Couple of tips
you don’t need a vacuum machine, ziplock bags in a saltwater bucket, gets all the air out!
The Other reels are junk, Shimano TLD are the best, and lightest (adjust your drag at 1/3 of the lines breaking strength),
always “bleed” you fish (especially the Tuna), improves the meat allot.
Try the Mahi Mahi’s roe, first boil in saltwater, then cut in small pieces and pan fry in butter/olive oil.
Keep up with the great videos
We all enjoy your vibes

+bertie perret i have used the same penn senator 14/0 for 22 years for tiger bull and hammerhead sharks its never flinched or hesitated in quality i have had a 9/0 for 16 years and a penn senator 6/0 for 19 years
if you update the drags to the new drag systems their drags (the ones they come with) degrade yes and are not advanced you can change the drags out for the new quality ones straight from penn its costly about 5 dollors a washer but worth the cost in my exsperience they run fine if you service them and keep them in healthy condition at the end of the day if you take a vintage truck and restore it to modern quality they work not arguing your point of view i respect it we have just had vastly different experiences that all

one great way to extend the freezing storage time is to GLAZE the fish with ice.... so basicly you freeze the fillet then take it out of the freezer and dunk it in freshwater just a second or two then you will get a thin ice layer that will protect it and you wont get the dry spots that damage your fish... didnt find the method on youtube but found this it might help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoqhBIHgjDU

Len Losalio
Len Losalio - 5 years ago
Bleeding the Ahi or yellowfin tuna, is done to help the meat (muscles) to release the Lactic Acid and not "burn" or discolor the meat. Its done more for fish that will be sold at auction or fish markets because the brighter/deeper red the meat, the better the price. Lactic Acid will accumulate in Ahi and make it not as red colored.
Mike Villano

you are right. bleed and get the blood up.A single speed reel with a small handle he's trying to describe.

wolfe fishes
wolfe fishes - 5 years ago
Beachcomber yes you do bleed your fish bc if you dont the meat just won’t taste as good and if u don’t knock it out or kill it as soon as I get it on board the meat will build up altic acid and will turn white and taste not as good also
Chris Kibb
Chris Kibb - 5 years ago
Beachcomber
Spot on.....actually, the meat will cook internally and turn to a white / grayish color, meaning the meat goes bad. To prevent this, a small incision just an inch behind the pectoral fins on both sides will severe a large artery and bleed out the blood but more importantly the heat in all the muscle. Also, if you have xtra ice, remove the head and guts, and pack the cavity with ice. Nothing better than fresh caught tuna, and nothing worse than having meat go bad on freshly caught tuna.

Ok, this is a good one. I REALLY like this video. My first thought was "another fish video" and actually didn't watch it , but YouTube put it on when I was busy lol. A lot of good pointers. Riley would keep getting hooked up with Marlin, big ones. He lost a lot of gear doing that. I guess it happens more in certain areas of the pacific, and it was quite a while ago before they had gone to Europe, in the monohul.

You are both such wonderful persons and I love your videoblog and the way you do it.

Maybe you are interested in talking about within the next time? Have a nice stay in Palau. Greetz from snowy bavaria, Marc

Ditbopper - 5 years ago
At sea you want a jig style lure, lead head with some sort of "feathers" trailing off the head over the hook. Also spoon type lures. You can make them btw. It isn't so much the colors of the lure but the action of it that attracts a bite. If the lure is given some up/down start/stop movement it attracts more action.

All reels vary as to the type of fishing you will do, also will the line, so when buying a reel let them know what you are fishing for and and the size that may be caught Penn reels are the most chosen for deep water fishing and if you use the wrong reel you will be disappointed

+Capt. G. Turns out that Mahi is in the middle of the pack with respect to mercury. Right next to Mackerel by the way. I tried Mahi once and really liked it (although I bet it wasn't close to the fresh Mahi you had), but I was concerned about the mercury so I didn't have it again. But now that it has lower levels than I thought, I look forward to enjoying it a lot more.


In case you are interested, here is a study of the mercury levels in commercial fish.

Cat Boat Adventures - slower-growing mackerels and swordfish species are more likely to have mercury levels high enough to be of any real concern. Mahi are some of the fastest growing fish on the planet- mercury not an issue with their 5 year lifespans.
Great video, btw. Thinking about switching out from sportfisher to catamaran owner. This video really showed me what a sailboat is capable of.

OK, a couple of things. I do not sail but I have been on a number of sport fishing boats. What about getting in the dingy and fighting the fish from there? It seems as though that you are fighting the boat as much as the fish. On a sport fish, once the fish is hooked the boat starts backing down on the fish to get the fish to the boat as soon as possible. Do you have a flying gaff? How about 80lb tackle? Just asking. Have fun.

Tld 50 is a good quality affordable reel and good to have braid backing

Tyrnos and Tiagra are also excellent if the budget allows

Fresh tuna is so good and tastes so different than other fish.  It's like beefsteak of the sea.  When I worked offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, one of the prize fish to catch was lemon fish, aka cobia and ling.  I've never seen anyone on any sailing channels mention this large delicious fish.  Have you guys ever caught any lemon fish?

The lever drag you mentioned is called a Star Drag. My favorite spot when Deep Sea Fishing was always on the aft Starboard corner. I usually got the biggest and most fish, plus the money from that spot. I sure miss my days at sea, seeing big fish jumping around the boat like you filmed, So Cool.

Here'a an article stating that plants have structures analogous to the neurobiology in animals. Plants also have memory, the ability to learn, and the ability to anticipate -- for example, they will change the direction of their roots to go around an object before reaching it. And mimosa plants will actually respond to disturbances and any kind of anguish by collapsing its leaves.

So if you want to exist as a human without hurting any living things, I am afraid those two states of being are incompatible.
