Props for your continuing reminders on a healthy release. I love the idea of letting them catch their "breath" before the measure / photo session. I've always told people to hold your breath when you pull the fish out of the water, and get it back in the water before you take another breath. It puts things in perspective and makes people aware of just how long they keep them out. Some really awesome footage!

@kateskrmetta2022 3 года назад

I’ve seen people treat fish poorly and hold him out of the water and I literally stop breathing until they release it lol

@duffyluffy97able 3 года назад

I think that big fish also didn't fight because of how many times it tried to eat the mullet 20 times or something

@lodestonedavid 2 года назад

Amazing video! Not just for the good fish themselves but also for the fact we could see them in the water chasing and taking the bait.

@@kalebholland7342 how so? Most Fenwick rods if you buy at a local tackle shop they’re over the counter warranties as well. I’ve heard bull bay has a good warranty as well I’ve just found Fenwick the easiest and fastest (as long as rod is in stock) to deal with

@@stevestory8483 my bull bay dealer does over the counter exchanges on rods if you bought it from him. I have replaced a couple without spending a penny other than the gas to get there. Basically as long as you didn't slam it in the door in front of him, it's a manufacturer defect free exchange

@longrider42 3 года назад

I love your video, but I have to ask. Your gear seems kinda light for the size fish your where after. I used to deep water fish in Southern California back in 84. I used and still have my Newell P454-F, on a 5.5 foot long Kunnan stick. Caught some good big fish on that rig. Don't know why I still have it though. Stay safe and keep you rline tight and your hooks sharp.

@johnlegitkicks 3 года назад

Have you considered using a shorter rod? I'd use a lighter weight vertical jigging rod. They can hold up to high sticking and unnatural angles alot better.

@kennethallen3452 2 года назад

I’d put money that fish 1 and 2 were the same fish. To me they were both 39 inches and that’s why the fight was so weak on the second one and had a bloody lip from catching her earlier. Just my thoughts.
