    Ya'll have reached out to me so many times about underwater footage and me not cutting or editing it so here it is. Let me know what ya'll think and if you like it or not. I'm editing the full cut version where we catch some more fish and do the catch and cook. That will be out soon! Leave a comment below and ENJOY =) Thanks everyone

      What type of electric reel do you own is it the one company that the guys that worked at daiawa broke off and built a better and bigger version of the tanacom?

    8:14 omg you can see his him checking out the bait when you dropped it back down to the bottom! His eyes were glowing! Heiko this is some of the most badass deep water drop footage I’ve ever seen!!!please do some more drops with the camera rolling

      @TsunauticusIV ปีที่แล้ว

      Muskie have eyes that glow in the dark like that. I’ve seen some giants in the water and they look super scary when your light hits them. Makes me want to escape the water as fast as possible. 😂 big ole tiger Muskie are beautiful but I don’t want their teeth in me either.

    Terrific camera work. Amazing footage! The fish looked quite scary but you don't realise what a monster he is until he breaks the surface. Well done Heiko.

    Man I would love to see a video where you are chilling at the house tying rigs... like 20-30 minutes of all different rigs you use for each application and tutorials on how to tie them.

    That was sick! The bottom structure was so interesting to see and those green eyes before he hit was nuts. One of the cooler videos I’ve seen in a long while. The squid was almost glowing in the light, I bet a whole string of them with deep drop light would be super productive.

  • @pauledwards9251

    Awesome footage Heiko. Incredible how the sound of the reel motor vibrating along the line is picked up at that depth. Beautiful fish, can’t wait for the catch and cook 🤟🏻

    • @vernstauss1449
      @vernstauss1449 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Paul Edwards what if that wasn’t the reel motor vibrating along the line , maybe it was the fish saying help me I’m hooked and he is going to kill and eat Help me. Ha ha maybe fish say that . I know it hurts like when you get hooked

    @theinspector3688 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Bro, that was awesome. I learned so much. That camera worked great and lit up a large area really well. The bottom relief was interesting. The underwater sounds were surprising at how loud and weird they sounded. The fish venting as it decompressed, that was a lot of gas trailing away. Getting to actually see something happen is important than just knowing that they're supposed to happen.

    • @theinspector3688

    Heiko ....more vids like this please. You were the inspiration for me to build a deep drop rod and reel setup. I taught myself how to build the rigs and have been experimenting with alternative materials for stinkers. Keep them coming. I don't even know if you bother to read these comments but I personally would like to see some technical videos on rigging for deep drop swordfish rigging.

    GREAT VIDEO!! That is by far the best Deepdrop Snowy Grouper video I have ever seen. You did a great job of keeping the rig taut but in contact or near the bottom. I could tell you backhauled for a bit to get some curve out of the mainline and then dropped back down. As you drop back down at 8:00 and make contact with the bottom, you can see the ticked off green eyes of the Snowy Grouper at 8:15 and then within a few seconds it makes a solid hookup on the top hook. Good Job! Snowies are my favorite eating Grouper. You had some good eating that night. Congrats! We need more Fish Porn!
