@bushhog1
nice one sir!!!! Substainable fishing is the solution, for jobs, food, etc… !!!!
these guy are awesome, and they don’t look like they had much for by-catch. I think they use nets now.
I really hope they go back to this kind of fishing is it means they will stop using nets. I fear that one day there won’t be Any fish for my grandkids
AWESOME…thats all I have to say!
haha i love how some of them are wearing helmets, getting hit in the head by a flying tuna becomes an occupational hazard lol
No wonder the oceans are stuffed
Think how bad there shoulders hurt. No workman comp in those days.
I do offshore charters for tuna and these guys got me beat.
Anyone else notice that most of the “animal friendly” people fighting fishing seem to choose criticizing the lone person fishing for one fish at a time using rod, reel, and skill over the trolling ships using nets to harvest tons and tons of fish at a time? I don’t think any kind of fishing should be disallowed, but mass fishing should be slightly limited. Teach some men to fish, and you feed them for a lifetime.
going out on a party boat from Belmar NJ for Tuna in Sept. cant wait
AS is should but hasnt’ been for so long…..give the schools a rest would ya? they twenty years plus to recover….. find a new appetite…. please let them be…… the change in the population has been huge!!!!!!!!!! let them grow and be… and once again we can have some more fun fishing…. please let them be….

Try to work on a rolling boat with water higher then your knee and you’ll tell me how confortable you’d feel with a shark swimming around ……
switch yr brain on before any comment about things you don’t know
Back then the fish had more of a chance to get away.. these days huge nets are used to fish for tuna that goes in the can… no chance to get away.
Sustainable fishing at it’s finest!
Yes, this is diffenently very hard work. Acres of Acres of tuna.
Wow what a great video.
It’s a good catch but aren’t they not enough big to be catch.
It was sick

Damn good, my old man used to do this, took me on my first trip on the Kitty Hawk owned by Mr. vattuone, was a bait boat converted into a seiner, those bait guys had alot of balls.
The fuck man why shoot a shark it’s just trying to get its dinner which those SEMEN are taking from it.
free gym
fishing for anything should be done by spearfishing, rod fishing and cast netting, not this long line and gillnet bs that is driving fish stocks close to extinction
wish I could do this nowadays…
This video is quite old, now the seas are not that good…the population of tuna has decreased in a really high percentage in the last 20 years…must watch the documentary The end of the line…

@addassas you wrap the mono on the hook and pull it the opposite way as the main line
According to this blooper of Bill’s… yesterday when I got the hook out of the Rock Bass’s mouth, all of a sudden (DOINK) it got caught in my finger by accident. But at least my finger wasn’t bleeding real bad (even though it was only bleeding a little bit).
And yet therefore (according to Bill), I laughed and laughed right after that happened.
btw how does that monofilament trick work?
that happened to me too, it rly rly sucks lol, i am now a proud owner of pliers and boga
@JacksInn im wonderin the samething haahahha!
Sorry, I meant…
Wasn’t Bill’s hand bleeding after he got the lure caught in his hand and right after he tried to get the fish out of the water, even though the part with him bleeding in the process of trying to get the hook out of his hand must’ve been eliminated? Or was Bill’s hand seen bleeding on another blooper in the process of getting the lure hooked in his hand and by attempting to get the hook out of his hand because I remember seeing it on one of the bloopers like that?
Naughty Fish.
haha “the old monofilament trick” what would you do without monofilament….its just as usefull as duct tape
shoulda let the fish tire itself out abit more lol
buy some bogas that’s so funny bill’s the king
Fishing Frogs, soft plastic worm lures, bass lures 30pk on ebay: seller: jcstriper
Bill you should fish with my Bottle Cap Lure©
@teagan684………..OKAY I understand you what you saying now, yes we do use landing nets to land bass and other large fish but in some tournaments its allowed but in pro tournaments it not allowed, you must use your hand
Sorry there’s been a misunderstanding, I’m talking about a landing net, not a bait net.
When you get the fish close to the boat you guide it into the net so it can be lifted safely and easily into the boat.
I’m a Australian Bass Tournament angler here in Australia and landing nets are compulsory.
@teagan684 over here in the USA, it is illegal to use a net on sports fish like bass or other fish. Those fish you just named and their weight, here we use bigger reel and rods with heavier line. We use nets to catch bait fish and that is all.
I guess Australian Bass have a much smaller mouth, mostly we pole the smaller ones or net the bigger ones.
Barramundi are far to big to lip, you’d break their backs. Average Barra are now over 20 lbs or 10 kgs.
Do the top pros use a net ?
@teagan684 using a net takes all the fun out of fishing, a good ol’ rod and reel makes it so much fun
Ouch, why do Americans do this, use a net.
Bill is legendary funny.
How does stuff like this keep happening to him.
I can’t stop laughing.
that fish hooked him!
roflmao poor bill the most unlucky man on earth all these bloopers… priceless. simply priceless. best entertainment
you just can’t fake shit like that hahaha
