Great job landing that stud red Justin, I'm sure there was about 5 different times you thought you were going to break it off! Always incredible when you get a 30"+ red on a tiny fiddler crab. Great video as usual!
It is crazy how huge fish will eat something small. I have been fishing my backyard creek with 4 inch finger mullet ever since the hurricane and have not had a sniff. On Monday The tide was high and I couldn't get mullet, so I pulled my minnow trap and use 1.5" mud minnows. The hook looked like I gaffed these mud minnows they were so small. I got three reds in 15 minutes on the small mud minnows. I believe two things were at work. 1. Reds have the mouths downward, and muds stay on the bottom. 2. Reds do not have huge mouths, and they would rather slurp up a small bait then work on getting a larger, faster bait.
Dude, that snook chase was sick. I had a small bass chase my lure 3 inches from shore yesterday and even that little dink was exciting. That was just sick. Nice man!
Thank you for watching!!
That snook run footage was the best fishing 10 seconds I've seen in a long time.
It was awesome!
@@justin_menendez just watched it for the third time. I might have a problem.
Geezzz...I think I fished that spot the same day you did. How do I know that 19:28, the blue boat on the lift is a Midnight Express named Life is Good and that little shower storm took forever to blow through. I didn't do very well, couple trout and a crap ton of ladyfish.
You were a wizard under that dock bro! You have skills
Awesome patience on the stud red. And that was the coolest snook chase I’ve seen. Congrats on the good day.
Thank you man it really was an awesome day!
Wow Justin you’re such a great fisherman
What an amazing day of fishing, definetly one of your best videos. Can’t believ you caught that stud red, a nice snook, and a good sized black drum all in one day. Keep up the amazing videos.
Thanks!!
Where the catch and cook!!?? Hahaha Killer vid as always my man
Great job.
Love watching your videos.
Justin sweet fight getting that red through the dock. That always makes it feel so worth it when u get through a fight like that don't get broke off and get a nice fighting red. Then to get slammed by that nice snook sweet I seen the first one then the others sitting their and was shocked they didn't spook but slammed it just like the first snook went to. Nice job that's why we enjoy our fishing I was literally feeling the pain having to go through that dock because once you have done it before u never forget. Great day.
Awesome video man! I live right by where you caught that second sheep so when I saw where you were though that was pretty sick!
You keep me motivated, great catches bam!
Good stuff! Your videos get me hyped and I’ve been watching one after another! What camera do you use if you don’t mind me asking?
duuuuuuuude....some skills. wow
Caught a pinfish and a monster red on the same kind a bait and hook 😵 that gotta be some kind a record lol nice bro . Like the way you fish
Lol your boy hit that Homer Simpson
Dooooooph....... On that snook chase..... Bro...... Sick eat
Sic vid.... Always throw back
Do you have any good tips for starting a new channel I’m trying to get one started I only have one video. Keep up the good work on the channel.
I know this question was for Justin but I’ve been doing it for the past two years and the best advice I can give anyone from what I’ve learned is that the views will come with time so just focus on making small improvements with each upload. For example your filming, audio, commentary, thumbnails….etc. the other thing I would suggest is to always take time out of your day to read and respond to your comments cause at the end of the day that’s your community and if they watch all your videos they will be able to give you the best feedback out of anyone. Good luck with your channel brother 🤙🏼 Tight lines!
That's some good advice right there.
Mom wake up Justin posted a new vid
Dope video. Those HMGs do work! I might have to pick one up. More bridge fishing videos bro!!
Yes they work great I was actually using an Elite Inshore in this video!
Man pretty exciting day
Love the persistence getting that red out, very cool. Your vids just keep getting better bro, keep it up!
Great catch Justin , From Montreal Keep up the good work!
This time of year adult shrimp spawn offshore in the gulf sometimes you can get small juvenile shrimp at the bait shops
That redfish was super impressive
Another great video. That black drum tho and the snook chasing your bait. To top it all off that big red fish. So how did you prepare the sheep's head? Can't wait to see what's next. Have a safe and Happy 4th of July sir.
Right now it’s just vacuum sealed in the freezer.
Awesome video Justin!!!
Not sure where you live, but I'll be in the Jacksonville area in September. If you're interested we could fish together sometime!
Amazing Justin! That snook eat was epic. What town should I look up to be close to that kind of backwater? Would love to vacay there with my kayak
Really anywhere in Florida besides the panhandle you should be able to get some decent action like this.
watching your videos just makes me want to go fish. Great video
Hey where’s that new bigger boat of yours? Forgot the name on that thing.
Tarpon Boatworks Tarpon Bay 19. I’m getting a new one in August.
Thanks for the great videos. If you don’t mind sharing, what braid to leader knot do you tend to use?
Seen this question asked before, he uses the fg knot. I use a double uni.
Awesome day bro!!!!!!!!!
Dang that was a huge red!! Nice vid as always
Great catch👍
Great video again
killer day
Such a good vid keep it up
Fishing starts at 3:30
Seen you on my kaku Zulu pedal kayak out there by the bridge
Where are you fishing out of? Looks like maybe Melbourne or Sebastian?
Ok i got a question in your area what would you say is more effective 5' paddle tail or the 3' i live in citrus county Florida and theres a lot of the same mangroves and stuff around trying to get your opinion on a couple things im picking up some mini mullets too
i live in crystal river and don’t catch anything on 5in but 3in is very nice for reds and snook. i would definitely try little mullet or mini mullet when they come out. i’d personally stick to the gulp shrimp or live bait on a circle hook. goodluck out there
@@ncaravetto yeah i usally just use live shrimp or whatever pin fish we pull up with a net thanks i live like 10 mins from petes pier and all that stuff
Could you do a video fishing for snook at the beach?
could’ve kept the black drum
no shot you blew up the fenders jesussssssss
When are you gonna be back on the flats boat?
What pound braid is on the first setup?
What do you use for live bait ? Also what bait shop do you go to ?
Is a J hook better than circle for sheepshead
Yes, you'll hook them better.
@@justin_menendez When you see sheepshead eating barnacles along a pile, up near the top, how do you get that fish to bite your crab? If you use a sinker he may not see it on the bottom. If you don't use a sinker, the bait will float away with the tide. Thanks!
You have such a nice flats boat When are you gonna use it?
Prob when gas stops being $5/gal. I have a smaller yamaha similiar to the one on his gheenoe and can get a solid 2-3 trips depending on distance off a single tank of gas.
He no longer has the flats boat.
What tiller extension do you use? Thanks.
It’s homemade with PVC.
@@justin_menendez Thanks!
What is that mullet swimbait called and where can I get it?
No live bait needed
🔥
Where is that out of I think I'm real near you
What's happened to your big boat?
Melbourne cw?
That was a 33 inch red my guy come now we can see it
It was 26 actually
@@justin_menendez dude iv been trying to get u to say something it took a negative feedback to get u to respond ok I got ur attention now My guy I watch u every time I u post I would like to go fishing with you one time maybe you could give me a few tips I'm pretty good I just want to make a living doing it just don't know how to start my own TH-cam stuff
I received a message from you of winning fishing gear. Is this a scam
Yes, a scam. I keep reporting the A-hole who keeps putting them up but nobody is stoping him.
🔥💯💯💯🔥
too much work
First
Second
There is no "she" in the word species.
There is no "he" either. And fyi, ALL large snook are females. They literally change sex as they grow.
When you measure a 35 inch red on a 33 inch ruler 🤡
It’s a 35 inch ruler champ.
Yeah bro, the marks go past 33"
