- In this episode, we recall the Top Five Biggest Goliath Groupers ever caught on BlacktipH. Number Five was an estimated 400+lb goliath grouper caught fishing with NFL Linebacker Sam Barrington. Number Four was an estimated 500+lb goliath grouper that I caught in 2014 using a handline. At the time, this was the largest goliath grouper I've ever caught. Number Three was a truly monster goliath grouper caught by my buddy Trace Frieden. This fish weighed well over 600lbs! Number Two is currently the largest goliath grouper I've ever caught on rod and reel. This fish weighed more than 600lbs! The biggest goliath grouper ever caught was with my friend Max McKinley. This fish was scary big and must have weighed between 650-700lbs! This grouper literary weighed more than the hull of the boat we caught it on.

when you struggle to catch a 5 pound bass and then you see this
Fax
Bass is a different game, they're just so damn fickle lmao.
You don't have the gear he has, the boat and the crew to make those catches. Probably this is just a group effort and they all get paid while he gets all the credit in the video for showmanship.
He do be spiting facts
Haha 😂 so true
That fish must recognise you by now, you were catching the same fish over and over as it was growing bigger
How can you tell 🤦🏻♂

The bend in those rods is unbelievable without them snapping.
I know right holy hell. It’s seriously impressive that they can hold up as well as they do.

I'm glad you let those big guys go back. Magnificent creatures! Thanks!
They are protected
Me too..they're living souls
They have to legally
@@tinaminowski1014 yeah but not everyone does things legally
@@sparkzhd1619 find out what happens if you dont
Ive eaten many grouper sandwiches never thought one could eat me
Real talk😂
😂😂😂
@Billy Anderson 😂😂
I don’t like eating fish
Dr3wZi119 Why fish is pretty good lol
That was insane. When you was showing that giant group at number 5 I was like...what the hell is number one going to be like. That was so much fun to watch. I didn't even know grouper got that big.
O9⁹
Some of the best extreme fishing content anywhere, period
Amazing video! It was a lot of fun watching you haul those giants in. When you are in the water next to the Goliath Groupers, that is when the enormity of the creatures mass can really be appreciated. Thank you for the entertainment.
Love that he unhooks the fish when he can. Great videos!
Congratulations your Fishing was amazing, this place is wonderful, it has beautiful Fish.
Hug and good Fishing!👍
Josh is THE MAN!!!! Its amazing to me how fast they are when you're toying with them, being how big they are. You'd think they would eat slowly but nuh uhh lightning fast on topwater!!
Who is josh?
This is my first time watching ur channel and it just gets better and better
I remember watching these vids but like this it's so cool. Keep them coming.
you are doing so good keep up the good work
Wish there was some way to reliably estimate weight for these things.
bdpa kaknox use this formula. Girth squared times length divided by 800. Measure in inches with a string or tailors tape
@@garycarlson6557 does that only work for fish or can that be applied to all creatures?
@garycarlson6557That doesn't work LOL
I appreciate the explanation at the end and lesson about the fish thanks man.
I love watching your videos twice...one i love your laughter your awesome man
Cool great content and thanks for pointing out the fact they’re endangered !
yes endangered & this 'catch & release'' for profit, multiple times for many fish , stresses them & can make them more vulnerable to predators, illness or death. Fun! shoot the last buffalo!
I’ve seen a bunch of Goliaths in a museum aquarium, and I must say these are some hugeeeee fish.
Who else is here because of Joe Rogan?
How else.
@@Tod_oMal Had to see what joined this dude at the bottom of the sea releasing demons.
my man
dont crap on the grouper
Damn! You caught me. Lol
AN ABSOLUTE INSPIRATION! Always amazing content here. They’ve inspired my family, friends and I to create a TH-cam Channel. Follow us on our journey, would love some support🤘
Nice man
Enjoyed the content
Sweet!
Nice channel bro
He inspired me to make a channel as well!
I love the channel yo
I really like the fact that you release them .Respect to these giants.Well done !
They _have_ to release them, they are a protected species.
adds a huge amount of stress to a fish; all for a ego boost for people who do not understand the worldwide degradation of the ocean ecology
@@whistlerlife7180 yeah maybe it’s because I don’t fish yet, but just let the fish do their thing and stop trying to catch them just to release?
Love your vid
Love your videos! They inspired me to get a bumblebee grouper (a close counterpart to the Goliath)
Love the video!But show the top 3 of any fish. That would make a 30 min video we would watch.
What the it has gone quick I have been subed for 2 years
Dude, no one here understands Ebonics!
Awesome! Great catches, all.
A1 you the man bro keep the good work
What a ridiculous action packed video! You are truly the master of Goliath Grouper fishing! 👇🏻 how many people love watching Josh catch Goliaths!
DUDE your videos are so epic man and I love watching them so much just did a video running over the googan squad bass mafia box with a f-250 super duty diesel!
I'm over here catching fish the size of your bait and I'm getting excited. Those groupers are crazy huge lol
That's sick AF I wish I was there and thanks for sharing
1:08 anybody be seeing that fish jumping in the background
Ya
Friend: Let’s go get some fish doe dinner today
me: Nah I ate fish 10 years ago
Why copy the name and image?
Good video dude
Beautiful fishes and wonderful hunting
I saw a picture of a goliath grouper years ago that looked to be 700 pounds or more it was a monster i haven't seen another like it
3:50 he gets slapped n plays it off just so the lil boy could point it out 😂
Great fish and beautiful fishing
BRO!! BRO!! THE CONTENT OF ALL THEY KNOW!!
OMG!!! The power of those fish is insane!! Bending a rod that two people could barely bend the tip of pulling as hard as they can. But the goliath bends it like nothing!! 120lb drag pulled out like nothing!! Rope fishing! Wow! The football players was goliath was perfectly hooked through the lip. I would love to catch one of those jammers!! The giant Bass of the ocean! Amazing!! Nearly extinct too!
Who's here because of The Joe Rogan Experience? ✔
Yeah. Here after the Garrett Reisman episode
Never heard of this fish till joe rogan...the earth is amazing
Had to take a look after I saw the podcast.
Yep. I paused it immediately to see how big they are. I thought they would have bigger eyes though.
@@chud64 agreed lol.
I love your vids.
I love you so much I caught a goliath grouper that was 300 pounds praying for the Gulf of Mexico but the thing was 300 lb
Man you gotta show me how to catch a grouper sometime!!!
You don't, it catches you
@@yourmumsbed2371 wize words Mr guitar man
@@thatoneweirdkidd yez
How ? 1 rule ! Never alone ( by yourself ) never !
@@rykson161 why??
I used to love fishing growing up. I live in Michigan and just fished inland lakes, Biggest thing I could catch was a northern pike, but never caught a huge one on rod and reel. Largemouth bass were always the goal. Never bigger than 5 or 6 lbs.
My idea of fishing tackle as an open face reel and 4 to 8 lb. test. lol. Whenever I see this kind of fishing, I am almost more amazed at the tackle than the fish! How can you possibly afford this stuff? Let alone the boat?? Crazy.
Well they have 4 million subscribers so I'm assuming some is pr and then money from sponsors? Maybe they take people out there for money? Seems like a brand or business
Only want to say you smile im smile too...tq for make me smile here too from Sabah Malaysia
Awesome content
crazy , true fisherman . glad you show such respect for these giants. 👍🏼
Yeah killing them is so respectful when their listed as critically endangered
@@yangsrealm2536 obviously you didnt watch clip. they release them moron
A true sportsman to send back the fish to the sea.
@@LoudMouthsPodcast boo hoo people have been catching and releasing for hundreds of years.
@@LoudMouthsPodcast If you want to put it back; put it back, if you want to keep it then keep it. Life is simple.
@@kanecornfield4982 You do realize it's illegal it harvest Goliath's in the States right? You have to put them back.
@@LoudMouthsPodcast You fail to realize that you can do anything with your life. Millions of One man and one line isn't destroying our oceans. Huge fishing corporations are.....
But fishing is a sport so shut up tirimthony
Just watched this video with my wife and daughter in our van while waiting for our son to get out of school and we were all like 😱😱😱😱😱 This was a great video. Amazing how large these fish are.
Mad respect for you respecting these monsters. Amen brother.
Thanks Josh... Do you get sea sickness from time to time?? Last week I went to FL and I rented a boat... After snorkeling 2h and drifting on a waves for the rest of the day I got really sick with my family and at this moment 8 was thinking about you how are you dealing with this ;)
whats funny is that he caught his biggest fish on the smallest boat
I remember when I caught one off the coast of Florida, best moment of my fishing career.
It's amazing seriously unseen such kind of fishing....
Wow!!
Many Grettings from Germany
💪💪💪💪💪
Those are MONSTERS!!!
Excellent Amazing Jobs Young Guys more stronger hands andpowet enjoying thank video

This was soo cool!!
I'm always watching,and im from Indonesia
That is a great day of Fishing. I'd love to pull in a Fish that size. Watching this video makes me wanna go Fishing now. It got me all amped up.
Anyone else get serious anxiety from watching how sivearly the rod bends.
i love the angles
When you hook a big fish rubb it belly it has a soothing effect on them all big fish like it from big halibut to groupers
You are the reason I started fishing
7:07 Oh my god, oh my god dude, oh my god!
What else would you say if you were fighting a fish that incredibly huge?
A fish almost as big as your boat to be presice
This man has the top 5 records for Goliath grouper. Extremely impressive!!!
Wow big fish monster👍👍👍👍
From the rod and reel, and commercial boat nets, since 1900, the biggest Goliath grouper ( and cousin giant black sea bass) records, rank like this : 4 ft long is 150 lb. 5 ft long is 300 lb (matured). 6 ft long is 400 lb. 7 ft long is 500 lb. 8 ft long is 650 lb. 9 ft long is 800 lb. Since the protection on the west coast started from 1982, we expect in this last 40 years (they live to 80 yr old) some big 6 ft fish could be 10 ft now and wt close to 1,000 lb., a conservative estimate. 🤔
My sister said '' hey the caught Mr.Grouper'' lol
Bro im in Trinidad and we have fun just doing regular fishing. But your catch is jaw dropping
Amazing stuff
the ship turn immediately when the top 1 hit the bait 😂
When he caught fish no1 he was so excited I think a little pee came out
Number 3 realized a little boy was reeling and was like “ima give this boy a good time and come up”
Amazing fishng ... goliath groupers ..
Amazing footage! Are Goliath grouper not good eating - at all, or at that size? Granted, I would never want to do anything else but release one of that size, but these things are monsters! So cool!
They good but endangered because they were over fished. Sadly :(
: this is probably just a casual fishing channel
: 7:08
: aight
Giant Grouper great catch
Hey Blacktiph can you do an end of season blackfin and grouper run off the east coast of florida?
Do the bloopers again. 2019. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
For 19 long years I have wondered what my ex-husband and I encountered on a trip to Mexico. It terrified us both, and he drew in water, which led to him becoming quite ill. I am 99% positive this was what we saw! I think my dad even mentioned grouper as a possibility, but this was back when information wasn't as readily available. I focused in on a different fish he mentioned. It probably influenced me when he shared his own terror of running into a large one unexpectedly. Sadly, he passed nearly 6 years ago, or I would call him rn. Missing him pretty bad tonight. His brother, my beloved uncle, died this past week and his beloved grandson graduated salutatorian. Friends announced to me I was getting a puppy while talking to my cousin. Got her on the anniversary of my wedding to my ex. The trip to Mexico was to celebrate our 10th anniversary. These were just a couple of the biggest things. In a few minutes I celebrate another birthday without him.
My ex and I don't communicate, but I saw him recently. Due to the nature of our being in the same room (serious medical emergency), he doesn't remember it. I'm still tempted to ask (our) daughter to show him a picture of this species of fish to close that 1% doubt.
Hm, sorry to anyone if they read that. This was also 30 years from my own "HS graduation". First dance recital that was fully open since Covid...and dealing with my mom's pain/health and slated date for a hip replacement. Tornado where that uncle lived near my cousin. Lost another caregiver. It's been a hairy, crazy month. No wonder I am thinking on the past so much. Time to take the puppy out. Time and life go on...
Until they don't. Life feels very short, especially having had such a trying beginning. Just as some things have seen some improvements, that I appreciate life and feel...content...I realize I'm going into the sunset of my life. I know I will never date or marry, but I am forging a beautiful life with loving friends and developing interests. I realized the breed of puppy I have may outlive me or be with me until I'm closing in on 70.
Black Sea bass are common in Mexico weighing up to a 1000 lbs they look very similar to this fish but are a bit darker
@@FishinWithAlex TY
@@FishinWithAlex are you sure Black Sea bass get 1000lbs?
I'm lucky enough to have my dad still but we lost my uncle John to suicide in early April of this year. It's always hard. I've lost very important people and it never gets easier eveytime. I'm sorry for your loss
It was such a good read. Thanks for sharing your story. I’m glad you’re taking life head on with a good heart.
Nice video
Florida sounds amazing
Esse é um grande monstro do mar.
So basically you need to be able to curl 95lbs with ease to catch these monsters 😂
Wow very big fish
😍👏👏👏😍😘👍
Catching a helpless grouper with no amount of danger involved and he's proud.
