What this video covers

The crew of KALLI navigates the shallow, coral-strewn channels north of Scott Reef while trolling for fish. To replace lost gear, the crew constructs a DIY skirt lure using gold and silver decorative materials salvaged from a previous New Year’s celebration.0:51 While trolling, the boat hooks a large yellowfin tuna.3:02 Lyndon fights the fish for nearly 30 minutes before the crew successfully gaffs and lands it on deck.7:52 The tuna is large enough to provide meat for both the crew and their neighbors, with the remaining carcass disposed of away from the anchorage to avoid attracting sharks before the crew goes swimming.8:44 Following the catch, the crew maneuvers KALLI through a narrow, shallow channel during an outgoing tide, reaching drift speeds of up to 4.4 knots while monitoring for coral heads.17:27 The DIY lure proves effective for catching large pelagic fish in remote reef environments.6:53
