We went out of Pirate's Cove in Monteo NC nobody has fished in 3 weeks because of the hurricane. Captain Brenner was the only boat to go right out of the Intercoastal Waterway and turn left, north east.. We caught almost 800 lb of yellow fin tuna.
Hate commenting but here goes: best vids on line,, I even watched all the ads. ,, noticing front runner but don’t recall hearing a partnership announcement. Love the j-villain connection. I realize this type of content is difficult to come by but I just can’t get enough
Great video Joe! Man, that was some amazing action on some beautiful butterballs. Holy crap. I loved how you just scooped the bait up, too bad the live well wasn’t full. Glad you’re back. Thanks for sharing!!!
Way to set expectations Joe! Why don’t you do this on every trip?!? Seriously though, I’ll bet that very few of us watching realize the magnitude of how good the fishing was that day. Those folks had a day they’ll likely never see again. Cheers!
I was on the trip and realized this is possibly a once and a lifetime trip. I’ve been offshore many times and tried so many times to get a big tuna. I’ve been to Venice in November and March a couple times and never got this lucky. Joe is as good as it gets!!
Joe, you'll probably never read this, but on the off chance you do, I would like to offer you some advice. Might help you, might not. It was something that I had to learn back when I started out working on charter yachts, and then later working on superyachts and would take charter clients fishing. You fish for a living. It was what you do and what you depend on for your livelihood. You eat, sleep, dream and live for that fishing life. However, the people chartering your boat, aren't about that. They like fishing and want to go out and have a good time, but this is not what they do. They might be a mechanic, an accountant, a lawyer or own a lawn care company. They are there with you to create memories and enjoy themselves. When you get excited and yell at them, or talk sternly to them, then it stops being fun and they might want to stop. They don't know what's going on, they want to fish and catch stuff and have fun doing it. I get you're excited and don't want them to have a bad trip, but you are in a service industry. In the heat of the moment, when you get excited, you have a tendency to talk rather firm with people, and get sort of angry. Or it seems that way. I used to be like that until someone explained it to me like this. I would say things like 'I want them to be safe, catch fish, get what they paid for...' As an owner told me, 'If they caught no fish at all, but had the greatest time swapping stories, hanging out having a beer, feeling like their boring life was the coolest thing you heard that day and then recommended you to their friends and they also came back themselves...that's what matters more. Breathe in for a ten count and out for 10. Explain things so that they will remember them the next time. They aren't professional fishermen. Don't expect them to act like it.' That mindset really worked for me and I had people that would follow me from yacht to yacht, just to take them fishing. That mattered more to me than anything else. Love the channel, been following you for years. You know I like you. I just want you to exceed and succeed. That's all.
with these fish i have to push clients to get them to the boat quickly or they will 100% get eaten by sharks. during this time of the year while targeting these fish I am VERY deliberate and clear with them explaining this every single morning before we leave the dock. in the past when i havent done this all the fish we hook get eaten by sharks, not only hurting our fishery but not catching anything. I very carefully explain this every morning of every trip. i appreciate the advice
Amazing morning no doubt,,,,, Joe are you one of few that prefer conventional reels out there? I’ve been using Mak-10 and Mak-15 the last few seasons and they are great for our SoCal/Baja Tuna. I like to use Seeker and UC rods because they are local to me here in Orange County.
Hey Joe, congrats on an epic trip! I have 5 tiagra 50w that I troll and live bait for marlin with but want to try some tuna fishing this summer. Looking for something more manageable to handle is the mak 15 big enough to chunk and live bait for tuna in hope of catching 30-100lb yellowfin’s?
This was AWESOME!!!! Nice work on trip studs, and almost a 4th. What are your thoughts on getting a couple very seasoned blue water spearfisherman out there for them, and some big wahoo? We have all the gear needed.
Dude!!! That was flipping awesome!! That cast with your bare hand and hooking that stud of a fish. I wanted to catch one on a spinning rod but... Maybe on one then new ones you get in. Counting down the days my friend. See ya in October One more thing, ya need a deckhand? I need to get sea time and some more experience. Keep up the great work
Fighting belt and lean back body weight and that jumbo on the spinner gets spanked with no line break. You have no flexibility to maneuver with that rail pole. It’s just not a good fit for spinners. Lock the drag, fight for 5 mins tops and hand off to the next person with a belt. Fish broke off because the fight was too long and you put too much stress on the line at weird angles. That Nomad rod was a beast tho. Very impressive.
Joe, they have a miniature 17-inch aluminum bat made by Boone for striking fish, nice-looking bat. And I hope you have an extra U also, if it falls in, your clients are going to be in a world of hurt without it.😂😂😂😅 Keep putting in the work great video.
Good to see you back. Haven't seen you in a bit. Awsome vid.
thanks!!!!
Rang the bell with that pipe

He said his boat is in the shop getting things added to it so he’s using the front runner today
just a lease boat, glad to be back in my freeman with new motors! thanks for the comment
EPIC describes this video perfectly!! Fantastic!
Hey Joe can you tell me where to buy that fork looking thing that you put in your rod holder to fight fish?
rapsystem.shop is the website!
Who makes the fighting rod holder and where do you buy them ? The one you call the pipe.
Great video Joe! Man, that was some amazing action on some beautiful butterballs. Holy crap. I loved how you just scooped the bait up, too bad the live well wasn’t full. Glad you’re back.
Thanks for sharing!!!
Omg this was insane. I love high intensity joe vt. When the guide gets that excited you are witnessing something special.
When you think you’ve seen professional fishermen….then you see Joe VT. Laaaaawwwd!

Awesome trip and good work Joe.👍
Insane. Hey who normally runs the front runner? Been wanting to try one of those…
Hell yeah 👍🏻 got em on !
Nice Joe, hand feeding with artificial and an 80W. That last spinning reel fish was ANGRY! Tight lines and screaming drags!
That's what you call a hell of a morning bite! Is that your new charter boat or are you running a private boat that day?
Super duper great fishing brother
Bleed the fish
Targeting tuna in a hundred feet of water?
absolutely, theres no fences out there. we caught them shallow this year than ever before
Dude!!! That was flipping awesome!! That cast with your bare hand and hooking that stud of a fish. I wanted to catch one on a spinning rod but... Maybe on one then new ones you get in. Counting down the days my friend. See ya in October
One more thing, ya need a deckhand? I need to get sea time and some more experience. Keep up the great work
@17:54 what rod and reel is that?
Alijos 16 and Okuma pch rail rod
Joe always willing to let someone else "finish him off" 😆
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸what a catch👍🏽Awesome.
Epic video, great catch
Damn what a awesome day
Is this a new boat?
lease boat while mine got repowered
Pretty work cap
Any guesses on how big the one that got away was?
Hell yeah brother!
Great I was just thinking earlier wondering where was you
Here i am!
Just watching this is straight adrenaline
Yellowfin fishing is something I definitely rather watch than do. I don't think my arms could handle it lol. I'll stick to bull red's
What a day!!!
I HAVE MISSED YOUR VIDEOS
Good 👍 job 👍
The best part… Not another boat within view!
Wild!!!
Fantastic!
Epic! 🤠
Hell yea bro bad ass!

guy at 22:40 would have went feet up overboard if he gaff that thing lol
Shoot if i was paying that much to go out there a catch a tuna id be throwing my rod out just like that guy was a s well
When do I see hunting videos
Joe, they have a miniature 17-inch aluminum bat made by Boone for striking fish, nice-looking bat. And I hope you have an extra U also, if it falls in, your clients are going to be in a world of hurt without it.😂😂😂😅 Keep putting in the work great video.
thanks for watching!!
Nothing wrong with pipe. Didn't you hear the bell ringing?
What a cool video
thank you!!!
That tall mark
Had to try this video multiple times to get it play. Kept saying something happened try again.
I feel if there were a few more videos, you would have more viewers.
where ya been bro need those big fish videos lol
Working on it!
Amazing.....
Live action!
yew!!!!
4 weeks without a video or reply??
im back!
Had a friend tell me many years ago Schoolers are the Only thing better than Sex!
Stereo gaffing.
Are you always this bossy and noisy to your fellow fisherman?
I hate videos with commercials
I hate spinners especially in a hot bite. waste of valuable time. could have had two in the boat on conventional gear. what a day.
