oh there we go another oh this one's
bigger
oh all right guys it's about
4:15 in the morning see there's pathway
Bridge we're heading out offshore we're
going to do some deep
dropping there we
go oh yeah oh there we go again then a
little troll
so the winds are a little higher than we
thought they were going to
be 10 to 12 uh out of the North most of
the day so might get a little
choppy but uh we'll see what happens
once we get out there we got about a 50
60 mile run to make before we get to our
spot so out again with
Brock and uh we're going to Boogie get
on out there
I'll see you in a few let's go all right
guys it was a lot rougher than we
thought it was going to be but we made
it out here so you can see it's pretty
pretty swelly and choppy but uh we're
close to the pipeline Brock's getting
the Wahoo lures ready we're going to
troll for a while see if we can get
anything and if not then we'll start
bottom fishing
it was just too rough to troll this
swells are too big so we're going to
just hop around and hit some bottom
spots this the first one we're going to
stop at it's about almost 300 ft of
water here so I'll drop down see what
happens 420 G may go lighter but I'll
drop this first and see what
happens okay on bottom one two three
four let's try Fork cranks
up may go a little lighter on The Jig
yeah so The Jig was too heavy that I was
using so I downsized it to about a 240 G
jig all right let's drop the lighter jig
see what happens oh yeah the black
and we knew fish were down there so I
was hoping that the slower fall with the
lighter jig would entice a
bite haven't got anything yet nope there
we
go oh this is good this good
fish real good
fish it's fighting like a grouper
these slow pitch rods are designed to be
super flexible so they aid with the drag
when the fish pulls hard allowing the
rod to flex instead of the line taking
the
force get the GFF
ready might be a big red snapper
hopefully that's what it kind of look
like on the bottom
behind 300 ft is a lot deeper than you
think it is when you have to reel a fish
up all the way from the
bottom come
on oh grouper grouper big Scamp big
redou oh is it red oh yeah it is a red
dang it
out of
season
crap got my grouper
but
crap Scamp grouper is what we were
targeting cuz that's the only grouper
open at this
time all right guys good way to break
the ice nice fat red grouper but uh we
got to send them down they're out of
season so we're gonna vent them send
them back
down oh yeah listen that air coming
out I will take you tricky nice all
right see if we can get him back down in
there ah I vented him good there he goes
oh yeah oh yeah he's good oh yeah good
job all
right good way to start off the catches
big old Keeper look at that trigger
that's a slab probably 17 to the he ate
Aid where's the bait at uh I got tons of
cigar minow there and Squid right there
KN in that
Center that Center hole right here okay
I I'll drop one hole on and see what
happens all right guys we're going to
got drop that single drop rig all the
way to the bottom
and then hold
on I got 100 lb floral ler on it and 80
lb tasline braad
here then I got a 20 o Sinker on
there all right I'm on bottom
oh boy oh he pulled oh that was big man
he got it
too break
no I think the hook just pulled and got
my
bait yep just got my bait that was big
man all right going drop this hunk of
Boston mackerel
down you think that would be oh man oh
damn he cut me
off that had to be a
shark on a spot holding a lot of fish so
I didn't want to take time to retie the
bait Rod so I decided just to go ahead
and grab the slow pitch setup and start
jigging
again there we
go oh boy oh yeah yep
it's a good
grouper oh
God this thing is massive man got it
you can't get in a hurry when you're
reeling something up with a slow pitch
setup cuz usually the line's lighter
than what you would normally Ed for this
size of
fish your best bet is just to use the
Reel like a winch and slowly bring it up
and let the rod absorb any head shakes
or pulls hey just be ready with the
Gaff yeah
Big Fish on The Jig
guys are you kidding
me this was the biggest trigger I ever
hooked and on artificial at
that holy
cow PB
trigger on the
jig you need a picture that jig mouth
yeah here I got you I got my right here
okay
careful I got oh it's hung up all right
okay here we
go y the this one this line bottom
Line's
the golly
20 20 and a
half 21 to the wow 21 to that's
definitely my
PB where those pliers I'm going to bleed
them too all right there you go
there we
go this feels like another trigger on
the
jig oh he popped off really yep man
may you ready to move to the SC Camp
spot I'm ready
okay all right we're at the next next
spot guys they're just kind of all over
the place here we ran over three spots
on the way to this one so we'll just
keep
going till we get our Scamp groupers
caught all right Swiss and jigs guys try
the red and white candy stripe
we can kind of drift too because oh
there you go that's that's one right
there
oh oh he's he came back for it and then
he there we
go did I get sharked I don't know or it
might be AJ a
oh
God just slowly bring them up oh my
God definitely better have the Gaff
ready for this
one got
it I wasn't sure what I had but I knew
it wasn't a trigger and it was the red
grouper is fighting way too hard
dude this is a
beast
yeah I always get nervous at this time
because this is when you lose a lot of
fish when they can see the boat and then
they have like a secondary freak out
it's going to run Lo your drag bit okay
might
hug you LIF
[Music]
them I knew that was
big that's my
pbra a you got to get a picture yeah

species what
another
golly come out of the
bottom oh yeah
yeah I saw him eat that
wow don't pull this is definite
grouper oh man I hope so I want to Scamp
so
bad what I just got on the
way that was our whole goal today was to
come out and try and catch a limit a
Scamp grouper but so far we hadn't even
been able to hook one but it's not a bad
constellation when you're catching other
kinds of group or even if you can't keep
them they're fun to catch what is this
oh no stupid Alo oh isn't it
yeah yeah
dang
it thought it was a Scamp

is it's not acting like a red
snapper if it is it's a
monster okay get his head turned get him
