Fishing for Monster Redfish in Virginia
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2024
- I flew up to Virginia to go fishing for monster redfish in the Chesapeake Bay with Capt. Austin from Finao Sport Fishing. Last year, Austin told me stories of these monster redfish and I was shocked. The stories turned out to be true, Virginia has some of the largest redfish (red drum) in the world. These fish were truly monsters!! The average fish was 45 inches, which is enormous!! While fishing for redfish, I hooked a mystery fish that nearly melted the spool. It was either a giant stingray or a possible record redfish. I will be back next year looking for more giants!

Caught the Biggest Cobia of my Life:
bit.ly/biggest-cobia - กีฬา
Josh, I am right there with you with the crooked hats 😂! Glad to know there’s someone else out there with it haha
Will Keen same I look in the mirror and see that my hat is crooked but it feels right!!🧢
That one you lost was massive. World record redfish I bet
Will kee
I have the same exact problem whenever I wear a cap. I'll put in on straight, then 10 mins. later it'll be crooked. It's one of life's big mysteries...
Hat only feels right when its crooked!
You're giving the 757 good press. Thanks!
Anyone else literally watch everything on this channel ? Josh should have his own TV show
Yep. Did that a month or two ago when I found the channel.
Arguably he is already a tv show. Great production, amazing footage, and a wholesome spirit to it. Guys done great with this entire channel
Walker Meiner very true a great production camera work good nicely put together very enjoyable to watch
Yeah
Yes! I’d totally watch it!
austin is the man, good vid
My PB redfish was caught out of STEINHATCHEE FLORIDA...
34lbs. And 44 inches. GIANT for the panhandle. Love your channel man!
Love steinhachee grew up in Dixie. My personal best reds about 34 inches tho
Jordan Barger mine was a man for sure. Steinhatchee is great
This channel has such great content. Thanks for keeping it “reel”.
Simply Active “keeping it reel” that’s my dads boat name lol😂😂
DiZz Fire Great name. My girlfriends dad is going to buy a boat soon. His name's Tom so I told him to name his boat Tom's Cruise.
Samuel FlaBra lol. It must be short to be tom cruise😂
My opinion on redfish names from Florida:
1-12", rat
18-27", slot
28"+, bull
Here in Virginia we call them Red Drum if they're over 25 inches, they're puppy drum if they're less than 18". If they're on a menu, that's when you call them Redfish. Redfish are delicious! Red Drum received "slot fish" designation several years back and as a result, they're getting huge now and the population is really coming back. Only 2 years ago the record catch was only 49". I know this because I caught one from land that was 48" long where the Piankatank empties into the Chesapeake. Once Red Drum become breeders and end up outside the slot size, they don't really taste very good, so I'm glad they're off the menu. They get gamey.
You can get paid for that sometimes. Did you report it?
What about 19-24” fish? Are they unnamed?
Didn't expect to see ya here hahaha
But I guess after watching your "greenhorn" video I shoulda known you were a fisherman!
Nah, those are okay to call redfish. 18-25" is on the menu. You're crazy if you throw those back because they're delicious and it's what you came fishing for. I confess, I still call them red drum in just about any size. There are different kinds of drum. Red Drum, Black Drum, Croaker... yes, croaker are Drum fish. The "Drum" designation comes from a biological and genetic communication mechanism that they all share. They make sounds underwater to communicate. The Red Drum and Black Drum you catch won't tell you a thing when you catch them. They're highly-trained, ocean-hardened and act like they can't talk. Fill a cooler with Croaker, though... and those little bastards won't shut up. They sit there going "croak croak croak... I'm a croaker! My name's CROAKER!" Croaker taste exactly like redfish (the legal sized red drum), but each fillet is only a fish stick. So delicious it's worth the work, though.
Oh hi Mike! Heck yeah, I got it bad. It's really my favorite thing. If it paid better, I might re-consider all the work I do in IT and buy rain gear. I don't get to do fish anywhere near enough, all I ever do is sit around making TH-cam videos. You guys would hate me if I turned Jafromobile into a fishing channel. Big respect to BlacktipH!
I grew up catching these fish and it never gets old great video I love watching them especially when it’s out of my home port
red fish added to the list! do they eat lures?
Yes, they crush lures!
see ya soon haha!
when can we expect the video
Redfish love 3oz spoons and x-raps!
Don't stick your hand in there trying to get it.
Thanks for the VA upload happy to see you out here 👍
this is my favorite video to date. as a huge redfisherman in the tampa area, i never knew either that they grew to the size of small military vehicles. That was incredible. it has me fired up for a week of fishing in louisiana for redfish at the end of the month now. my next destination will have to be there. thank you for this !
Representing my state, LOVE IT!!!
This is going on my bucket list! I've never even been on the ocean before. Lake Erie is the closest I've gotten to fishing on open water.
you are the giant magnet !!! great video and the reds man ...
Wooo MAN that was a giant red bull baby!! NICE!
Great catches, Josh! Very nice Reds!
Very beautiful, this amazing place. Congratulations.👍🎣🐟🐠
Wow 😮 them are some really big Reds. Nothing like fishing for them BULLS! Some really hard fighting fish. Awesome vid Josh.
Great video man. I love how dedicated he is to fishing like me.
The 5 inch jack crevall I caught today was pretty cool, but those monster redfish were insane! Fantastic video as always!
Love your vids so much and keep up the good work
Awesome man... That's giants.... Happy fishing dude....
Mate your so close to 1mil so excited for you. Lots of love from Australia!!
Good thing putting Virginia on the map for fishing. 757. Growing up fishing off Harrison’s pier in ocean view. Brings back memories.
Right on Blacktiph rocking the Penn gear👌👌
Wow! Great redfish. You are on fire out there! Tight Lines Josh.
Nice catch and nice vid keep up the good work
Awesome Redfish! Incredible to see the difference between the Florida and the Virginia ones. Crazy
Got to know where to fish in Florida!
Best fishing channel!!!
Great video keep up the great work
I’ll live her in Virginia Beach red drum is my favorite species great video !! 👍👍
Josh when you were talking to the guy about ur hat and when you said u do math all after that was funny
The first fish I can remember catching was a redfish. I was 7/8 years old and have been hooked on fishing ever since!
Yaayyy I’m early! :D
You should come to Louisiana catch some pretty awesome fish here
This is very nice fish Josh..
Crazy how the best stories are usually the ones that got away I can’t even imagine what that was for it to be ripping line off like it was nothing
virgina has some of the best and funnest fishing out there
🎵Tuesday, Tuesday, Tuesday!!!🎵 Best day of the week! Awesome video, Josh! I would love to spend a day on a boat with you and one of these awesome captains you work with! It would be a highlight of my life, for sure. Problem I'd have (other than getting there, as I'm in a wheelchair most of the time) would be deciding what I'd want to watch you catch... shark? grouper? red fish? cobia? hmmmm - I'd probably have to put them all in a hat and draw one, cuz I sure couldn't decide! Take care and thanks for the videos! Heather🇨🇦
Love your vids I still can't believe you walked in the gasoline station I was working in
That Spinfisher got smoked! Great video, Josh!
Welcome to Va.!
Wow that's crazy. I love fishing and up for a challenge.
Wow I can't wait to go out there one day looks so fun
You're in my back yard haha there are some 60 + inch reds out there my pb is 58. You gotta go in August or early September the reds go nuts
Those redfish were giiiiaaant!!!
Are you fishing the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel in Virginia? I'm trying to figure out what bridge you're next to, as I'm from Virginia but live in Colorado currently. Great channel content Josh!
I live in Virginia Beach and man do I love Virginia fresh, brackish, and definitely salt water fishing
I love all your vids
You should fish for them in Ponce Inlet, FL this September! People catch tons of big bulls there.
I'd love to see you link up with acksharks for some epic shark fishing footage!
Love your videos. Have you done one on the proper knots to fish with?
Big ol red noice catch mate
I never thought I’d see jeb little creek on here. Let alone boats from ACU-2.
That big ole Atlantic Ray just took your ass to school ole son! Only been able to ever bring one up to the boat, big as a freaking Volkswagen beetle
You should try striped bass fishing up north!
I've seen them caught up to the Chesapeake bay bridge in Maryland. They were on the small side,but I was surprised. They call them puppy drum.
Holy crap that’s some big reds
Close to 1,000,000 subscribers!!!
Josh you need to come to Virginia for rockfish man their fun too and good eating
Saludos muy bueno el video que siga la pesca
Hey josh, do you think you could do a video on all of your reels, tackle and all that stuff?
I can’t believe you actually brought up how your hat is always crooked I notice that every video
That Finao kid knows how to work
Josh is there any chance next year when I come to Florida we could go fishing I love fishing but here in Michigan the biggest this are pike and I really need some bigger fish to my list
When that line snapped my heart broke
Huge fan you guys
Man those were some monster redfish, in all the years we charter fished for those, I think the largest we caught was around 42lbs and that was an unreal monster for Mississippi. I can't believe those are 35-40 average.
I love how you have a million subs and still read all the comments
I live in Virginia 💯
Let s June baby go had Starting 😎🤩
Exelente video🎏🎣
hi josh good video
You should try catching some red fish here in matagorda tx
I was there same time. Wish I could’ve went. Still never been ocean fishing on boat
Man wish I could fish with you!
Wow Josh! That was insane man. Meanwhile, I am here in NC trying to catch any kind of Red I can no matter the size. I finally caught my first Speckled Trout last evening and I was so excited! Nice vid man!!
BigBearFishing I live in nc and going fishing in the topsail sound all the time and catch tons of 20-32 but never giants like his
Topsail is only 45 minutes or so from where I am. I will have to go up and check it out man!!
BigBearFishing yeah me and my friend have a boat that we take out to some of our secret spots and catch tons. Some of the spots are so secret anymore as fishing guides have found them.😂
At the point in Hatteras they catch monsters like this off shore. I live for it!
Looks like I need to take a little trip up there! Thanks Katie!!
Haha I caught a red drum just usin a small peice of shrimp off nags head peir NC, it was bout 2 feet long I was quite surprised
You should go bluefin tuna fishing in N.C in the winter
Where and what month on cbbt you guys were fishing? Super cool fishing trip.
Fresh or salt water? Good video josh. My pb is an 8 pound largie... hope I can catch something bigger this summer. One last question, is the Neuse River any good for fishing? Looks about the same as most of the east coast but maybe a little smaller
I am a big fan
Austin putting you all on the fish josh...
Going there tommorow
Yoo been waiting days for thisss
saw a 56" caught
off Port Oconner here in TX
Josh I would like to see you go carp fishing.
P.S I've only been saltwater fishing once.
Great Stuff,...I Love it!!!...I want to see You up to "pull" a 200#+ Halibut off the Pacific Northwest bottom... "get ur dun"!!! ...Thanks!
I notice the crooked hat thing too😂
I’m in Florida and l am going deep sea fishing tomorrow! But there is a big chance of rain. I really hope it doesn’t!
Next time you’re in VA you should go for Tarpon. You probably don’t believe me but we have em and big ones too
Wow!
FROGG TOGGS 🐸

I have the same problem when I wear hats😂😂
Coulda been one of the millions of sharks that also hang in the bay 😂. I’m hunting reds myself for the first time this year in the bay
i catch 32 to 48 inch reds all the time in haulover canal FL
General Hobbies i
Glad they're coming back!
48 is a monster! My biggest here in Florida is 37in.
I live here in NC just south of Virginia here's a tip Josh if you want to pull out the 60 even 70 pounders use small pieces of cut mullet in 2 feet of water trust me
holy crap! I didn't know reds got that big! beats my 36 and 37 inch from Florida.
ArcherFish got to know where to fish in Florida!
