What The Hell Did I Hook !!!? 

my dumb butt thinking he's in the deep far away from shore in reality he was 3 feet above the water 😂😂😂

I think you caught my ex-wife.

I was waiting for a tree to pop up...

last time i went fishing, i wrestled with a fish for a half an hour before realizing the line was hooked to a rock

i kept thinking your boat was gonna tip lol

The timing on this couldn't be more appropriate. I live in Ohio. We have a close cousin to this fish, the freshwater drum, all over lake erie and it's tributaries. They DO get as big as the one you got here, but that's rare. Most of the big ones run in the 25-30 inch range, and if you get one much bigger, it's rare. Anyhow, was out in the canoe yesterday fishing for whatever would bite on a minnow, in about 12 feet of water, just inside the break wall in East Harbor, at the western end of Lake Erie. Ultralight rod and reel, but I have it spooled with 8lb test. The thin braided stuff. anyhow, something hits it, starts pulling off line... and just like you I went for a ride for about 10 minutes. Finally got it up and there we are... big big freshwater drum. Didnt' have a scale with me but he measured 31 inches anyhow. Hoisting his rear end into the canoe was a pain. Most fun I've had canoe fishing in a long time! :)

THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT! Don't mess with the drag. Just let the fish tire it self out. Good job!

Holy shit, you going for a ride bro!

Why is watching people fish so addicting to watch

one of the best videos i have seen in a kayak.... awesome!!

like the way you talk to the fish. great style. keep well and safe.

9:31 oh your gonna take a rest 2? bullshit

Man it was so hard not to fast forward! Awesome video

Loved the video. Wow Powerful on light tackle. Awesome!!

The actual sighting begins at 11:30 it's a nice size

Goodjob catching that Ugly, I enjoyed how calm and cool you were through the entire video, it made the watching experience relaxing and Pleasent.

I honestly thought the line was going to brake. great catch man!!

I get it now, the difference between a crazy person and a RU-vidr is the camera.

Good on you sticking to fair chase honor and not keeping foul hooked fish. A truly respectful sportsman

very well done. You have to love that feeling.PEACE

women be like "why was the fish always a he"

Welllll worth the watch!! I didnt even wanna fast forward, so glad there was an answer at thr end. Lol would've been theworst case of blue balls ever!!! Lol thanksnfornnot ruining the reveal with the title too!!!

dayum - that's one superb fish - light tackle and foul hooked - no wonder he gave you such a fight - great vid - brave man standing up to weigh it lol.

I'm not even a Fisher really and i stayed and watched the whole thing, but fish, nice catch, for a while he turned your kayak into a motor boat,lmao!

Sorry had to skip to the end. Cool bull shark :)

I caught an 8lb carp on 4lb test ultra light 2 Septembers ago, took me 28min to get him. 2 weeks ago, same 4lb test ultra light I was slaying smallies and stripers at the dam, but something big took my line instantly out inot the super swift current....there was nothing I could do and it slaughtered my line. I suspect it was a massive hybrid striper. Then last month I caught a 47" 46lb flathead, and a week later a 45" 43lb flathead on my cheap ass $17.99 Matzuo with 50lb test spider wire and I more or less was able to manhandle em...lol!

foul hooked or not, that's freakin awesome man lol

Nice big ugly!! Those are the best to caught on lite tackle the way you did. Great video

lol you need a bigger boat

honestly i was expecting the Loch ness monster after that ordeal :')

I Skiped to the end becuse i saw u said dont skip to the end 😂😂

Hell of a fish. It wore me out just watching. Didn't think it would ever give up. Pretty exciting! The biggest drum I ever caught was on a set line in Kansas. 16 pounds.

I was watching in and thought that you would be in Europe at this rate

i knew what you had pretty soon after you played him. only thing it could have been. my wife caught one off long bar near south padre island that was 36. i haven't caught another kind of fish that acts like that. a red would have been dead tired before this thing and would have been running and not staying so low. that fish doesn't want to come up. but you kept the crowd guessing. i use the 2500 with gulp as well and i live on the bay. boat and bay 30 feet from my bed. i've caught a few rays with gulp. been a while.

I've never been fishing... But because of this video, I'm going to. Great vid.

I was thinking you would lose this fish at the end. Was not expecting you to land it honestly just from reading the title. Lol great vid:)

Totally awesome fish fight and video.

you are using the fish as a motor boat ? cooool

I love this channle. it has my to favorite things, dirt bikes and fishing

that was actually pretty entertaining lol 14mins of my life was put to good use today thanks hahaaa

***SPOILER ALERT*** I can't believe you caught a 200lb tuna in a kayak!

last time i was in florida i caught a 40lb black drum, my oh my that was a fught

Nice fish! You have some kind of balance there! Enjoyed watching!

that pole was almost a casualty of war! XD awesome vid bro!

thank you youtube for this unexpected suggestion

This is why i dont ocean fish kayaks. Big ass fish like this would scare the shit outa me in akayak

i love this channel! I love fishing, been fishing since i was 3. My biggest fish was a 36 inch, 15 pound Striped Bass off of sandy point in plum island! im definetly setting alerts for this channel, fishing is awesome! You have earned a new sub and a like!

I love my Berkley Lightning rod! Just feels right and does a good job on red's! DB

I skipped to the end.....😎 THUG LIFE

Excellent release, great brood-stock and as you said, aside from any worms, he's been eating god knows what for god knows how long. Same with catfish, let 'em go if they are over 20 lbs.

You are Brave man. If I were out there are caught something like that, I'd have screamed bloody murder and probably fell overboard

Like your attitude sir! Well played - and released - so that "Big Ugly" can fight another day!! 👍

i thought it was a shark

Dope video man, loved it! Is that the 4500 sienna?

For a minute there all I could think you caught was a free haul to Australia...Nice catch!

My 13 year old son was Shore Fishing NC Outer banks at the point he hooked drum he had 8 pound string was fishing macks and blues with a lure . But I'd line just came off and he lost it . Good day fishing great set upYour living the life . Brother

Very nice video & what a fight & did this in a kayak. Great job. Where was this at. I usually fish lake erie or other inland lakes here in michigan never had a fight like that. A few nice steelhead good fights also a big small mouth bass. I hear A 20 lb king salmon will have you crying like a baby in about 20 minutes.

Haha and i also just subscribed.

Thanks for setting it free! And not killing it as a trophy :)

That fish!! That fish manage to pull the heck out of you the whole time!? Woah.. I'm Mind blown...

Plot twist it's a red shoe

I think your going to need a bigger boat ha get the reference

This was actually a very interesting and entertaining video! You earned a sub for me, at least! You grasped my attention and did not let it go. Gotta love fishin'!

well done buddy. I had it for a red fin or a Grouper that wandered in. But now I am going to finish watching this well played fight. GOOD JOB

Thats not a sheepshead,its a black drum.

Is this guy Godson from clash of clans...lmao his voice

I lived in Houston when I was a kid and there was a chanle that ran from the power plants to the gulf and I used to go to one bend and I would catch 30 inch redfish in fresh water on and ugly stick with a 33 zipco and 12 pound line using artificial 9 inch shad lures with just a basic knot 10 times over

Thought it was a big ray for sure. Nice blk drum. Great vid

I think you're Thresh! :)

the fish is a black drum!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta to love those fights when they last for at least 5minutes

For as boring as the footage was while you were fighting it, your commentary was amazing!!!!!!!

him: what the hell did I hook? me: the reef

Hahaha i like this video.

I haven't fished in years but I have to say I enjoyed your fight...I was almost expecting a shark or something....nice you let it go....

Big fish man! Awesome content nonstop action

He hooked Atlantis.

Change your name to tail chaser

That's a black drum, I caught one at Port Mansfield East Cut South Texas. It weighed around 35#, was 40 inches long. Caught it using Cajin Line red line 12# test. Fought it from the bank around 45 minutes. Awesome fish, heck of a fight.

nice catch. enjoy it when people actually take care when release the fish to ensure it is strong enough to swim back down to get some oxygen

It could have been a carb because there bottom feeders they dive towards the bottom

The best thing you can do to a fish you plan to release is to deny the fish oxygen after a breathtaking fight.

Lol “River Monster Show” crossed my mind

***Spoiler Alert*** Woah, the Loch Ness Monster??? Great catch dude!!!!

Fishing from a kayak in the ocean is actually pretty dumb. Didn't you see the video where a guy caught a massive fish that was bleeding and splashing around when a great white shark came up and ate it? After he ate it, he then went on to ATTACK THE KAYAK. I mean if that guy had flipped the boat he would have definitely been attacked and probably eaten. Instead the shark managed to take some big chunks out of the kayak.

Those fish are so easy plus thats a sheep head

I love how go pros curve fishing rods.

the only reasons I watch these is because it's entertaining and reminds me of my dad

that is a nice black drum

i could of ate that fish fir 3 days

Man he took you for a good little ride! Good clip, subscribed!

Loved evry second of this video brotha just subscribed you inspired me to take my kayak out

I Expected donald trump to come up the ocean..

Good sized drum. I live on the Arkansas River, which is a major tributary of the Mississippi, and we consider drum a nuisance fish, or trash fish, that can ruin your cat fishing in a hurry. Fun to catch the big ones though!

This reminds me of when I caught a 65 pound Grass carp on 6 pound test fishing for Bluegills, foul hooked and it took 2 hours to bring in.

Tailchaser:I fel like I'm in a episode of river monsters Me:fish on fish on

Awesome video and nice drum. Thanks for being a sports fisherman. I wish you tight lines my friend. :-)

I was bass fishing in Illinois and I hooked a drum about 30 pounds... I was 14 at the time and it was the biggest fish I'd ever caught...

only a good fishermen can land a fish like that! it's even harder to land a fish hooked like that! great catch!

Nice catch! Reminds me when I caught a 32 in Tarpon off of Ft. Desoto in St. Pete, FL in my kayak.
