Caught a magical winter flat calm day. Loaded up and headed offshore. The fish are definitely biting. Caught fish after fish until my arms were jello. Burned through a dozen or so jigs because of the toothy critters down there. Sharks were pretty bad as well. On the way home ran into a couple schools of Tuna and picked up a couple on the 4" paddle tails. Awesome but exhausting day.

I love these deep water jigging vids. It's like opening a present! Complete with the grimacing and swearing. It's awesome lol!
New record set for grunts per minute on this video. Either the fishing is getting better or the angler is getting older... or both.
For the record, I counted 447 grunts during this video, producing a gpm of 16.26.
This shatters the old record set in March of 2017 of only 12.62 gpm.
Congrats Steve on your new PB.
gpm... lol 😂
That’s a lot of drinking if your taking a drink for every grunt.
F..F...f... I knew you had it in you now we are fishing lol🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful fishing today!
Great job Steve. Congrats!
U the king of the asian squad fishermen youtubers!
HE'S Jigging again!!!! Thank god!
15:30 for the good stuff! Love it Steve, keep kickin ass!
Excellent job editing...I have noticed when you have BOTH the stick cam and the hat cam...we get much better audio from the head cam, but better video from the stick. So thank you for blending the best of both together when sharing the footage with us. Ha-ha-ha I said "footage" :-)! Show us your feet :-) Anyways what a great trip...to finally get back out there to the reefs and fun catching! Keep up the great work!
Love watching you go out and slay the fish. Your determination on catching even though you got robbed by the sharks so many times is amazing.. keep it up
awesome day and amazing video! Fresh tuna makes everything BETTER!
Those sharks are incredibly smart...they find fishermen and just follow you guys around waiting for you to pull up a free meal for them. Haha.
Yesterday was the calmest weekend day we've had here in The Keys in a long time and I DIDN'T MAKE IT OUT ON THE WATER!!!!! Ugh!! Sometimes you just have to go to a local festival and eat awesome food and listen to music instead :)
Looked like a pretty good trip man
Awesome 👍👍 and you can’t get a break from the Tax Man
Its good to see the vids getting pumped out!
Love the Mullet net Shirt
Great video ! Can't wait for cooking and eating.
Very enjoyable to watch sir, enjoy always.
Nice tuna 🐟🐟🎣
Awesome video man. Tuna all day!
Dozen jigs, good thing you are the bait store! Beautiful smooth as glass water. Very good fishing day, besides all the sharks cruising around. 👍👍
Holy crap Steve, That's what a call a workout. Nice tuna, good eats. Thanks for all the cool videos.
Love key west fishing used to live there when I was younger great experiences there inshore, and offshore fishing. Love the vids keep it up.
Good stuff Steve !
Wow those were some big sharks trailing your catches. Nice blue water to guess you get quite the work out. . Thanks for sharing.
I have been snook fishing where the best fish was just a head at the end..I feel your pain! Nice work on those tuna!
Love these videos man!
Sells jigs to support his jigging habit, hilarious. Tight lines my man.
you are the man! 👍🏻
Excellent day ! I might watch that twice !
I have never been deep sea fishing before, steel leaders & a little less tension on the drag? Great videos & a new subscriber. 🐟
Finally offshore!!!!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
That was amazing catch release and keep vid the hardest you worked in awhile JT
These are the videos I like great job
How do you not have a heat stroke in all those layers
Man you had a good day. I wish I could have a day like that.
great video, fishing heads all day, haha
Great video! Just got a couple things from your site! Can't wait to get it! 🎣 tight lines
Glad youre finally upgrading your gear
Please get back to this!!! Fucking awesome! Regards from Mexico
These videos are great, I live in NY and I can’t fish until April-May. 👍
Was trying to find some help on Boondocking going to be there next week for fishing didn’t anticipate every RV park sold out
Lapsed gym membership over the winter I see. Love your jigging vids the best just hope these little AJs today get u in shape for the big boys to come. LOL Take 3 Tylenol before bed you will be less sore in the morning. Steve Burch below said you caught a lot of grunt bait, guess I missed that part! Keep up the good work.
Excelente vídeo amigo
nice tunas , they fight so hard
Sharks gotta eat too!! Good for them!
Nice Tuna!!!
i,m waitin for the gruntin ..lol
Godamm toothy critters...
Just got turned on to your channel by William Ledbetter and I'm happy he did. You got great stuff sir! I do a fishing channel as well and I look forward to learning from you!
We couldn’t keep the sharks off of our mutton snapper when I was down there for vacation a few weeks ago. Exciting but frustrating!
Nice lil tuna
Do you have a vid.. On your kayak outrigger.. By ne chance.. .And great vids.. Keep up the good work
great job my new target fish is a tuna
Time to think about investing in a power assist reel?
Steve, great video, as always, but watch out...! You're starting to sound like a sailor! :)
I’m not sure if you explained this in a previous video but I was curious as to why you don’t keep as many fish as you used to? Love the videos by the way!
Goddamm toothy critters...!
Hey..enjoyed your fishin trip..cool *..sit down jigging..no sea legs ?
Do more longer vids like this
You throw back so many good fish ! You could donate them to local food banks like we do here in Jacksonville people love fish and the reward is awesome to know that hungry people are gonna eat good food that they typically can't AFFORD
I think he doesn't have the space to keep all the fish he catches. I also fish here in Jax but mostly in the inlet at St. Augustine.
Man you should consider increasing the braid to 100lb, tie an FG knot to a 100-120 lb flurocarbon topshot, use a Stella 8000 spool which is perfect for heavy vertical jigging, and you shouldn’t loose any monster fish again 🙂
Sharks....nature's tax Collectors
I love your videos, and know this one's been up for pushing two years, but... I really like that hat and would love to know who makes it and what style it is, if you still have it or still remember. :) Thanks!
So nice color these fish do you use real fish skin lures?
*girlfriend on her period*
TIME TO ENTER THE BLOOD ZONE
TheUAZCs haha
Time to move when u r only reeling up amberjack heads. It's tax time of the year🐋
Such language! We're gonna have to wash your mouth out with cerviche. Fisherman language, love your videos.
Would some wire leader have reduced the amount of breakoffs? I would be pretty bummed to have lost several fish and lures. Maybe not as many bites? Idunno... What do you say Steve?
You know it's a good fish when he has to blank out half the audio... :)
Great video as always.l have a question what kind a battery you are using for your fish finder?thank you.
hi im in west working and i was thinking if there are any spots that i could spearfish from shore or kayak , preferably reef areas ,i would apreciate your response , great page thanks for the motovation
hardcore fisherman! Id wet my panties if I had sharks swimming so close to me on a kayak. hahaha
Hey Steve I always enjoy coming along fishin with you :)
Hypothetically if you had to replace your current kayak, what would you get? Something different, or a small boat?
Curious after so much time with the adventure island, would you buy another one?
I want my blackfins... sushi
ALL ABOUT THE BAIT WIRE SHARK RIGS?
Awsome
Regular subs link to any vids with larger fish?
Shark Week 2019!!!
I'd love to be able to live there but it's way to rich for my blood lol
Nice
Great video dude. Tell me you dont afraid to be with just one stebilizer?
Is there a good way to practice jigging and level winding with your thumb like that?
Damn tax collectors man. Crazy how they eat so much that fast. All that’s left was the head. Mind boggling.
Would a seigler small game work for tuna
Do you know of a good spot to launch a jet ski to go offshore fishing, that has easy access offshore
Which jigjead did you use when u picked up the black fin?
Extremely gorgeous, not beeeaaaauuuttifulll?
what kind of shark is that
Oooo kinky.
"Ugh!! Sometimes you just have to go to a local festival and eat awesome food and listen to music instead :)" Yeah or shovel 14 inches of wet Rocky Mountain snow from the driveway and sidewalk. ;( Maybe some Loctite on those choke screws! What a beautiful day out there.
I love all your videos but not sure commenting on a 4 yo video get seen
Damn u handsome!
steve what were the first couple species you caught?
I believe those are almaco Jacks

You might need to get to the gym and do some weight training to keep up with the fish!!
Not sure what u were thinking vertical jigging with a spinning rod but ok
Because if you match your catch with a heay duty spinning reel you spend less effort on thumbing the reel and can concentrate on fishing! I vertical fish all the time and never use a baitcaster
@@arronorr4479 U dont need to thumb conventional reels if they have that cast-drag knob.
@@bradys.7967 lots of places jigging with spinning gear is popular . I'm not sure what you mean by "cast drag knob" but if you are thinking about the spool tension knob you are wrong to assume that it is a casting aid. Arron was referring to laying down the line when retrieving the lure, not thumbing the spool with casting.
@@otroflores91 Anotherflores91 I was under the impression that thumbing the spool meant ensuring no backlashes when releasing line. Wasn't insinuating anything about casting, and i wasnt saying that the cast drag knob is a casting aid. We were talking about jigging, my friend. Its perfectly fine to use the cast drag to control lure descent when jigging, at least from my experience. My main point was that it seems a bit strange and inefficient to deep jig off atlantic reefs with a medium-sized spinning rig, which you cant really argue with based on the mans performance in the vid.
@@bradys.7967 you are right, thumbing usually does refer to slow down the spool with your fingers. I think he used the word "thumbing" when he ment guiding the line back on the spool with your fingers gets in the way of working the lure.
If you use the tension knob to control the lure decent and it works, that's great. Everyone fishes different. All that matters is going out fishing.
What engine do you use?
FloridaJiggin', I think it’s a Suzuki 2.3 or 2.5 hp.
@@nauticalstar8363 Thanks. I was just wondering because it seems to be a fast little engine.

That’s a lot of unnecessary fish killing. You might as well use a net and kill more at a time.Theres got to be a better way to keep them from sharks getting a free meal.target smaller fish if you can’t pull them up with out killing so much fish.
Why don't you just get a boat this looks dangerous and annoying
He's just waiting for a great white shark to show up.....lots of views
Lachlan O'Neil, I own a 21ft and it is a money pit. I also have the Hobie Tandem Island and it is stable and virtual maintenance free.
