You're watching Longshot TV, presented
by BMW trailer hitches, the last trailer
hitch you'll ever
need. Coming up this week on Longot TV,
the crew is having a great season so far
and today they are heading out in search
of a hard fighting fish, the greater
amberjack. th kind of ran up on them
pretty fast and I threw a net. We
managed to get a handful. So, we're
getting ready to get
fishing. This is what we came out
[Music]
for. I got him back on bait.
That's what I'm talking about right
[Applause]
there.
Go. That's a nice pull. Get
him. Nice fish, man. I ain't kidding
you, boy. Better hurry. Hey, wind it up.
Wind it up. Wind it up. Wind up. Wind it
up. Man, look at that fish there. Long
shot crew does it again.
Is that a fish or what?
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
It's been extremely windy summer and uh
we hadn't had a chance to go fishing
offshore that much. So, we finally got a
break in the wind. I get a hold of Chris
and Adam, decided to pack the long shot
up, all the supplies and fishing gear
and uh head offshore to try to catch
some greater amberjack.
finally got Wade to call me back. He's
kind of tough to uh to u tie down with
his commercial fishing operation uh
going on full full steam ahead in the
summer. We got a break in the weather.
He said uh this will be a great day uh
to go. The ocean's really pretty today.
We got birds working on both sides.
We've been pretty lucky all year finding
the bait. And you know, the bait's the
most important part of the trip. Yeah.
Last trip we just run around the south
side of the jetty and uh come up on a
bait ball real fast. But today you said
you want to try to head north. Uh few
less boats. So uh hopefully we'll get
lucky and come across some pretty
[Music]
quick. Hadn't heard of a lot of bait
being caught. So the way the seas were
looking in the afternoon was supposed to
get up. So I made a call. Let's head up
to the east, catch bait. We'll fish it
that way. When we decide to come home,
we'll catch the seas on the stern, which
will make for a smoother
ride. Soon like a couple miles went by
and I thought we'd already had bait by
now. Nothing. No birds, hardly working.
Just it was like a dead
[Music]
ocean. So, we finally spot a few
pelicans and run up on them. And time we
get up on them, the bait I'm like, you
know, where's the bait at? no
[Applause]
bait. Uh it was looking like it was
going to be a beautiful day except for
one thing. Uh we couldn't catch any
bait. All of a sudden, Adam's driving
the boat. I got the net. And I'm like,
when we run up on this bird, I'm going
to be ready to throw the net. Just get
the boat up on plane. Run up on this
bird as fast as you can. When you see
him dive, I'm going to throw the net.
We're going to make this happen.
[Music]
We do that it seems like a half a dozen
times and miss them. I don't see the
bait flickering or
nothing. I'm going to try to visually
pinpoint it and just run straight to it
pretty quick and I'll throw and that's
the only way we can catch it. Right.
Right there. Right there. Right there.
Not hard to get right at him.
[Music]
We don't give up. We got
them. I think this is it here.
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
It just goes to show, you know, we could
have ran all over the ocean, but we
stayed here. We sat right here. The
birds were here. The bait was just down
deep. Um, there was no sense keep
running around up and down the beach
chasing this bait around. It was just a
matter of hanging out here, waiting for
it to surface, seeing it flip, throw a
net on it. After probably about an hour
and a half, it was a struggle for me,
Chris, and Adam today. The pelicans
weren't diving. They were just sitting
on the water. Saw a few birds working up
real high, a couple diving, and uh we
slipped up here on them. Adam kind of
ran up on them pretty fast and I threw a
net, but managed to get a handful. So,
we're getting ready to go fishing, turn
them into some big old hammer jacks.

an hour, the crew was coming up empty.
But their perseverance paid off, and now
the guys are ready to get the lines in
the water and reel in some big amber
jacks right there. Important to get him
in the water
fast. about this one motor in gear right
there. We just arrived to the fishing
grounds. We're about 25 miles offshore
and uh we're getting ready to get some
pogies rigged up and hopefully have some
action here pretty soon. We're fix
fishing over actually a wreck. We're in
about 70 ft of water. So when we hook
these big jacks, it's pretty important
to put a little bit of heat on them to
kind of get them off the wreck. If not,
these fish are very strong and they're
going to pull us right down to the wreck
and uh bust us off. Come on. Come here.
Crank it
up. Yep. Get it up.
Got him
on. Here you go. Take that butt rod to
the bow. Take the
bow. Okay. Wind on. I'm heading to
it. All right. We got
color. Take your time with him.
Can't see what we got
there. Nice. King mackerel. Get right in
the
[Music]
water. Keep ride in the
water. King fish. It wasn't too long. Uh
he had him up beside the boat and I hit
him with the gaff. He had a nice uh
legalized king fish. Really good to eat.
So, we put him in the box. Had this game
mackerel hook up pretty quick. Uh, they
fall a little bit, but got him right to
the boat way gaffed him. And we're here
amberjack fishing. So, we're going to
get a rigs back out and hopefully get on
some amberjack. But, this one here is
going to be good smoked up and we'll eat
him later on this week for
sure. King Mack. This is definitely a
good start to the day here on the long
shot. So, we're still trolling around
the outskirts of the wreck. got all the
lines back out and it wasn't just a a
few minutes. Uh, another one went off
and this one was pulling a little harder
but wasn't making the long runs on top
the water. It was digging down a little
deeper. Had a feeling in it definitely
wasn't a king mackerel usually. I said
Jack when he feels a little bit of drag
off and keeps going down deep like that.
So Chris jumped on the rod and and uh he
put it on him pretty hard. Well, after
getting out there, um Wade, um actually
had brought in some some new reels that
we weren't really familiar with, but
they were actually spinning reels that
we used uh for this offshore fishing
trip. And uh exciting to use. They were
uh very easy to use because you could
actually uh pull a lot harder on them.
And so that was one of the uh one of the
highlights of the trip because most time
when you're using the old bait casting
rods, it's kind of tough to get these
big fish in. And then with these new
spinning rods that Wade brought on
board, uh it was just an exciting time
and it was a lot more enjoyable to catch
these big fish with these spinning rods.
It wasn't a big enough jack to keep. It
was a smaller one, but this is
definitely a good sign. Less than a few
minutes, 10 minutes into the trip, we've
already hooked two
fish. Super nice little fish. He's not
not as big as the ones we're going to
keep a couple of these. So, we're going
to actually get him back into the water
and get him back in. But this is what we
came out for. These greater amberjacks.
This one's about maybe uh 15 to 20 lbs.
Let's get him back in the water. And so
uh maybe be another day.
We're all three taking turns, you know,
each gaffing the fish, running the
camera, running the boat. Uh, we all
three got our hands full. We just kind
of rotate. So, um, I'm up to bat next as
the rod goes off. About that time, rod
goes off again. There he is.
[Music]
Yeah, I feel like we got a nice hammer
jack hooked up right here on this light
tackle. A lot of
fun. I missed him twice and he came
back, got another pokey, rigged it real
fast, pitched it to him and he took
it. That good.

check us out on the

web. You're watching Longshot TV,

Simrad. Go with
confidence.
Before the break on Longot TV, I'm just
making little tight circles right on top
the wreck and the ride goes peeling off.
This is what we came out for. These
greater amberjacks. We're all three
taking turns. You know, each scaffing
the fish, run the camera, running the
boat. Uh we all three got our hands
full. We just kind of rotate. Yeah, I
feel like we got a nice hammer jack
hooked up right here on this light
tackle.
That
good
[Music]
mother.
Another nice amber jack right here on
the the long shot. This is what we came
after today. Uh these ain't the biggest
ones. Hopefully we'll get some bigger
ones a little bit later on. It's
probably 15lb jack, but they're a lot of
fun to catch. Put up a good fight. And I
know there's some big ones here. So,
we're going to release him and uh
hopefully get back on some
[Music]
more. So, we already got three fish to
the boat. Two jacks and one king. This
is This is a great day. I look up and
this boat's working its way off the
wreck like it's coming up beside me. And
uh recognize the guy from the dock where
we tie up at and he's asking if we do
anything. And I told him we've caught a
few fish. And uh he said he's he's
leaving. It's been dead here all day.
And he had a charter. And um so I just
said, "Well, we caught a few. Wasn't
going to lie to the guy, but I said,
"We're catching a few. They're biting a
little bit." He's like, "We're going to
roll on to another wreck. Ain't much
going on here." I'm like, "Okay, you
know, good luck to you guys. Hope you
catch them." But in the back of my head,
I I just knew the guy didn't have the
right bait where he was fishing at. I
knew we had a live wall full of uh
pogies and you couldn't ask for a better
bait here for these big fish on this
wreck. Adam said going
down these advertise will run on you
fighters. I hope you don't get back in
that red.
Oh yeah, I see a couple more
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
behind trying to teach him how to break
[Music]
dance. Third amberjack of the day. I
think this one's going to be a keeper.
They got to be over 36 in. Going in the
box right now.
Usually when we get one or two on, we'll
clear the other lines where we don't
have tangles and building bird nest and
stuff. So, uh, Chris is fighting this
fish up on the bow. And then as I see
these other jacks school behind the
boat, I rig another bait up and pitch it
over the over the jacks off the back of
the boat, hoping they'd see the bait hit
the water and go after it. And it wasn't
just a couple seconds that rod went
screaming off. God, that was fast.
[Music]
[Music]
Chris's jack uh kind of got the best of
him, took him down to the wreck and cut
him off. So, I was fighting this fish
and thought it was a jack at first, but
the closer it got to the boat, I could
see down the water, you know, 30 or 40
ft and it had a lot of shine to
[Music]
it. Was like a little tuna, but uh we
got him upside the boat and it actually
was a bonita. really no good to eat in
my book. But we put him in the boat and
uh we're going to save them for some
bait later. They make great bait.
Whether you're shark fishing or if
you're trolling offshore, you can cut
the belly strips out of them. They make
great baits.

[Music]
Hey, behind the boat. Behind the boat.
Behind the boat. Look at this. Look at
this. Look at
this. Got him on here. Got here. Take
it.
[Music]
Wow. That old face on, I believe. I got
a couple right here. Hold
on. Oh, yeah. There they are.
[Music]
Well, Chris just boated another nice
amberjack. Uh, we're having an awesome
day here. Catch caught a lot of fish.
You couldn't ask for a better day. Seek
conditions are perfect. A little bit of
chop in the water, which helps
camouflage the baits a little bit. And
Chris, you got a really nice jack, but I
still think mine's a little bigger. I
think so, too. So, let's let this one
back in and
maybe be a little bit bigger one.
Trolling back up on top the wreck here.
And uh these amberjacks are definitely
uh starting to get in a feeding frenzy.
We got them definitely fired up pitching
all these live baits out and and they're
schooling up right behind the boat
pretty thick. There he goes. Boom. Yeah.
Yeah. Boom. That's all it takes when you
throw a couple pokés over Chris and
they'll swim right up to the bait on the
rod. Walk right over the side.
[Music]
Here they come. Check him out. Check him
out.
Yeah. Oh man. I got him. I got him. Got
him. Here. I'm swinging right here. I
got him. Right back on
[Music]
bait. Come on. Down side.
We got a school of school of amberjack
to the boat. We got this one on board.
Wade hooked up to another one right
before I got this one on. He had to help
me out. So, that one's feeling drag off.
I think Wade's got it set back a little
bit, but we about to reel him in. We
actually videoed this
one taking the
[Music]
baits. Wow. This last one that I got a
hold of, I mean, he took everything that
I could possibly have to get him up to
the top of the boat. Probably um called
him for a good 15 to 20
minutes. Put some pressure on your
[Music]
rod. That's what we're after right
there. That's the big one. This fish was
probably 55 to 60 lb. What an incredible
fish. That's amberjack, guys. That's
what we're after. Wow. We actually uh
filmed this one. Uh uh taking the bait.
I thought Chris was messing me about the
big one. Huh. I've been giving a hard
time. I caught the big one today and
Chris been catching a bunch of little
ones, but he's definitely got me beat
here. So, this is your fish. I'm going
to let you hold him.
Well, you get
He is a big one. Check him out,
guys. Big
amberjack. Another one bites.
