Fighting a 1000+lb Monster Sawfish for Hours
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 жов 2018
- My buddy Max and I went fishing for tarpon, snook and blacktip sharks during the annual glass minnow migration and we hooked something much bigger than any of those species, fighting it for hours! We began the adventure by flying the drone down the beach, searching for migrating species. Immediately we found a large school of tarpon swimming towards the boat, but unfortunately, they didn't eat. As the day went on we started to spot some blacktip sharks feeding on bait schools, but we had no luck with them. We were in need of more bait for blacktips so we headed to a nearby wreck to catch some blue runners, and have a little fun with the goliath groupers. After catching a few blue runners Max and I headed back inshore and went fishing for snook and blacktip sharks. All of a sudden, my line gets picked up and pulled away from the rocks. We fought this mysterious giant fish for nearly an hour before catching a glimpse of it. It was a monster sawfish, close to 20ft in length and over 1000lbs! Sawfish are literary one of the rarest fish on earth and this was a jumbo-sized one! I fought this fish for over two hours before hopping off on land to bring the fish safely ashore, and with two insanely strong headshakes, the giant sawfish was gone in the blink of an eye.

It blows my mind those rods are strong enough to handle a monster fish like that.
yeah its incredible
James Simmons nose?
@@angrynooblets34 amazing answer!
Aaron Shattuck Thanks lol
those spider silk inspired lines too
"This week we'll be catching a fully grown blue whale"
With an ice fishing rod.
If anyone can land one, it’s josh
That wouldn’t surprise me 😂 then he’s jump in the water to get a picture
In a 16' Mirage.
In a kayak
* 7 year old me trying to reel in a snag thinking its a fish *
Think of this, there is 3,5 trillion fish in the water, and there is max 5000 sawfish and min 200 AND HE CAUGHT A ENORMOUS SAWFISH, with out exaggerating that sawfish could be the biggest in the whole WORLD and out of 3,5 trillion fish they caught just that one.
NO WORDS
that rod is stronger than all my relationships combined.
I'm crying😭😭😭
HAHA LOL same!
Funniest thing I've read in months lol
I haven’t been in a relationship
Looool bruuuh .😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Most dangerous fish in the world by far to handle"
*jumps in*
Bram Kelson yea it’s not tho. Iono wear he got that from
@@seanmiller3500 right. Plenty more dangerous
The most dangerous to handle do you not listen people
@@Workrategetschingy still plenty more dangerous to handle .. most sharks.. lionfish, stone fish, tonnes of freshwater fish. Jellyfish etc etc. Not saying sawfish isn't dangerous tho
@@Workrategetschingy rays too
Hooked one in 2019 at the pier on St George Island. Thought I was hung up on the bottom then all of a sudden I was able to move it. Didn’t know what it was until it came to the surface. Ended up breaking my pole and eventually it snapped the line against the concrete of the pier. Something I will never forget!
Have a place in at George and I was with a group of people when the 10 long tiger shark was caught!!

Thanks for making videos for us. Love watching you guys fish

Facts
True or something is in his ass.
Ha
4 years ago 2 of my uncles and I went on a deep sea fishing trip off the coast of Cocoa Beach in Florida, we started off catching bait fish, and then went out for shark fishing. we caught a couple black tip's. The biggest black tip we caught on that trip was about 75 lbs, but that wasn't the craziest thing about the fishing trip. one of the lines started to go, i took over for about 15 min but it was just too much. i would've been 13 or 14 at the time, i gave the rod to my uncle and he was fighting this fish for over an hour. once we got the fish closer to the boat our captain freaked out once he saw what it was. out of nowhere we see this long saw like blade come out of the water and start swinging around and hitting the boat. it was our first time shark fishing or even sea fishing. We were all shitting bricks and just jaws to the floor when we saw this fish. Our captain told us this was the first time he or anybody he knew has seen a saw fish in the area we were at. That was hands down the greatest fishing experience of my life and will never be forgotten.
amazing
I'm from there! I miss it.
great story fun to read

Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
@@Praise___YaH not today, satan.
I know it takes forever and it's really painful to land a monster like that, but there's nothing like the feeling of something that huge pulling on the end of your line like that... Especially when it's on lighter tackle... So much fun to fight a monster fish that big...
I need my relationship to be as strong as that rod
Hah

10:56 To get a glimpse
What is it ?
Zaid Bheekharry a sawfish what did you think it was an eel
Thanks, that was cool
The Bat no it’s a zebra
that's clearly the blue whale
Thumbs up if you love watching giant fish! 👍
This was great
2yrs ago he caught one also.. same scenario..
If you had been using RGB on that setup, you would of never lost that fish.
Reminds me of old man in the sea
shame yu not got a tv series catching beasts
The level of your skill is tremendous mate! So much fun to watch
As always, I love your action packed fish vids!
him: *finds 1000 pound endangered rare fish* "cool"
me: *finds 20 pound fish* "yea!"
I take whatever I can
Me catches 5-6 pound redfish Hell yea baby let goo. Watches him catch 30-40 pound ones o never mind
Ha pitty my pb is a micro plankton
Feisty Chipmunk lol gotta get the bull reds in the right season and you’ll catch em
Wasn't 1,000lbs
Am I the only one that recognizes this dude's incredible strength when fighting these monsters
Not much strength
Yea watch the video where he takes strong men out. They are struggling and falling over. It's a lot to do with technique
Caleb Anderson those were bigger fish, also this guy squats on the pole which makes it much easier, those strong guys had the pole at their hip
It's not about strength it's about skills and techniques.
you need good form, my dad taught me this when I was little.
one of my all time blacktipH vids.... max cracks me up!
Love your videos! Always great content 👍🏽👍🏽.
"I remember the fish I lost more than the fish I caught" I think any hardcore angler can agree
Especially if you never got the chance to see what it actually was, the mystery of fishing always keeps you coming back
RcFrenzy So True !
Hardcore angler . Thats was awesome 😂
Ain't that true. I had a large marlin in Hawaii strip a Shimano Tiagra 130 full of 1000 yards of 130lb test without stopping, or jumping. I only saw the baseball bat sized bill in the splash on the short corner, got the other 5 lines cleared and got the pole in the chair gimbal with only a few seconds left while the boat backed down on it before it reached the end of the line and broke.
Yes bro
Man never seen someone so beaten but still fight back, you're a legend
Him: I only have a spinning rod
Me: $30 Walmart pole
My pole: SNAP
4:44 Takes his fishing rod, walking away says "what a guy" with a little condescending undertone. Too funny!
I would hate fishing from one of those platform boats. I would feel like I’m going to slip off.
Me and my buddy just went fishing out in the surf in a boat like that we caught about 10 gaftop and he caught a 23 pound RedFish
@@MysteryOutdoors who asked?
jucitron goat😂
TheUnlimited001 thank u finally someone that thinks that u would slip off I always thought that and it scared me so bad when I went fishing
Its possible to slip but if you have grippy shoes or anything with rubber soles your fine
Fishing rods are a master of engineering, absolutely incredible
When I was around 11, I hooked a tuna larger than I was. My father refused to help me get it to the boat. I got it right up to the boat and it got off. I've caught larger fish since, but none ever gave me the fight that one did.
Blacktiph has the best fishing videos by far
Now everytime i lose a fish im just gonna tell myself at least it wasnt a half ton sawfish
😂😂😂
The Dream Catcher h
😂😂
The Dream Catcher tbh if I knew it was a half ton sawfish I don’t think I wanna catch it like how tf are u gonna get a good picture of it or unhook it without getting 2inch deep gashes in your arm
I will never understand how you have the stamina to fight a 500lb Goliath and a 1000lb sawfish in the same day on spinning.....
Agree
For real I’m probably the same size as josh but his fishing power is 20x mine hahaha I get tired after fighting reds all day🤣
Tx Fishing its clickbait he said fight it for hours but he only fought it for 15 minutes
😭😭😭😂😂😂im jk
I’ve never tired from a large fish, because I do it the right way.
Awesome catch!I wish I could get one in my life🎣
Bravo to that heroic sawfish! I am so glad to hear that it got away from its tormentors.
10:58 imagine swimming and then seeing that come out of the water
*Oh God, Please No!!*
I would think it was Jason coming out with a chain saw🤦💀
I’d pass out
I would become Moses
what was that fish called?
WOW! What a beautiful Monster fish
Anche tu qui hahahahaha sei il mio idolo
Zuko: that’s rough buddy
How u watching this and u play fn

Don’t get down about it dude that’s the highlight of your life right there. You did something less than probably .0000001% of people could ever do in their lives hooking up to that monster sawfish. Yet how many people even ever get to see one? That’s amazing!
I don't even like fishing but this is ssooooo enteraining
adrian redding same lol
adrian redding facts
adrian redding for real
Yeah
Fuck all yall
That was great! What a fight! It's awesome that you guys know what it is before you even see it. That's a pro!
Love your vids blacktiph keep up the great work
Amazing fight...I was really looking forward to seeing that awesome Sawfish, but we got to see enough to know that they're still out there! You're truly blessed!
"Saltwater fishing is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're gonna catch" 😂
G man yeah that’s not funny..... AT ALL
G Man U probably don’t even know how to fish
@@jesse_blackflag19estxxx88 you both suck deal with it
@@jesse_blackflag19estxxx88 do you not know the reference?
I caught crabs once, was an itchy time
Best video I have seen on the web all day! Amazing!
Loved the drone shots
This is absolutely incredible when I saw your ig post I didn't read the caption so I didn't know what you had hooked but when I saw the thumbnail and title I instantly started shaking with excitement great video man
Dude your vids are the things that inspires me the fish and I love it
It's still very impressive that you got that fish that close to shore with the tackle you were using
Re watching this video so good. Get well soon josh! U got this!
Loosen the drag when u are about to land a big fish bro for any last minute runs. That was epic I was holding my breath the entire video...I'm still shaking
Catch Em All Fishing I’ve commented on so many of your comments and videos trying to get noticed. If u see this could u please reply
back
I think he knows what he’s doing
But it’s still good advice
Luxury Fishing same I was fishing in a river once and caught a 30 pound ray and it was running for like 5 minutes then I just reeled it in then I went to go take the hook out then it but me and it was sucking on the bottom of the river for ages but eventually got it
Dude catches a few fish and thinks he’s better than BlackTipH ? Idiot
I love blacktip and his videos he never click baits just strait to point awesome fishing 🔥👌
This guy has definitely removed his ballz. Just look how he fights all his big fish, I couldn’t do that, maybe cause I’m 10, but I’ve fought and caught a 2.4 metre bull shark, and that fought hard af, but when I did, I used a harness.
Eye popping amazing guys!
10:50 If I didn't know he was fishing, I'd say he was pulling up a saw
what was the name of the fish?

What an awesome fish! I've never clicked on a video so fast as I did when saw this one was about a sawfish! I can only imagine how bummed you were to lose it so close to the end of the fight. I would never have had the nerve to jump in the water knowing I had a sawfish on the other end! You are amazing, Josh - how on earth did you have the strength to fight a goliath and a sawfish all in one day!?! Thanks for sharing these videos. I look forward to Tuesdays thanks to you and your content! Heather🇨🇦
Jumping in was stupid not cool or smart one slice from that saw fish and he would have bleed out before being able to get to a hospital but still a cool experience I guess?
Nice spoiler bud
@@tuzcan- nobody asked you to add anything
Love your videos. I have tried a couple other channels but yours are the best
I love your videos Blacktip!
It seems like they are making a rebound all the inlets lately have been reporting big saws and even smaller ones hope they come back like they once we're
Jacob Cook that’s great
Wow that’s crazy! Hooking two in a lifetime! That’s awesome man
I love how he is so calm when he gets something on😄😄😄😄
Dang bro loved this vid it was amazing good action
My heart is bleeding about this loss 😭 great video guys and greetings from Germany✌
Leon Schütze Ich weine auch innerlich.... noch nie so mit gefiebert!
Ahh,ah,ahhh, brings back memories, every thur. And sun. Night, 4 12 years in the Charlotte harbor FL. Just inside boca grande pass, there were sharks everytime we went out and I loved it, great video*****
This reminds me of a few fish I've hooked into but with the wrong gear. Hooked into a halibut while fishing for salmon. Last thing I saw was an ENORMOUS tail fin on a last second run and that was all she wrote.
Another time was fishing for Chinook. I hooked into a huge one. I couldn't lift the rod up when the fish was fighting me. Ended up wrapping around the downrigger and prop and then snapping off.
LOL this video is exactly how I felt except I was only reeling in a 15 lb carp and it got away right at the shore😅 I mean still the biggest fish I ever hooked. This is some serious Next Level stuff
His friend is so chill about everything 😂😂
Yo that's great that's a once in a lifetime Opportunity And God-bless you I love your videos
Kid: it’s not a shark, 100% it’s not a shark.
Me: a sawfish actually is a species of shark.
Its a species of Ray. Related, but not a species of Shark
He knew it was a sawfish before he could even see it. Amazing intuition.
"I'll catch a nice, humble blacktip now..."
Lied to yourself dude 😉
I got anxiety when I saw him standing on the side of the boat fighting with the grouper. I was like “BRUH YOU GONNA FALL!!!”
Its amazing how those rods hold up and don’t snap!
The shark that all of the sudden snagged the fish was a literal jump scare.
Awesome bro I've been watching since the begin of 2017
✌️💚👍
I absolutely love your channel ❤️. I've been subscribed for a while now. Also, I've recommended your channel to many others I know who love fishing and who would enjoy watching. Stay at it brother, it's very entertaining 👍👍👍
Just subscribed. You said it like it is. You remember the fish you lost more then the ones you caught. Fish on.
I’ve never even been fishing but I still like these videos lol
3:40 this guy must be with stainless steel balls... he put the rod handle between them...
No he used his ass muscles haha
Richard Tipton best way to grip the rod😜
If you are not sure, ask your mom.
There’s me all proud of myself catching 2 3lb mackerel 😥😢
Don’t worry Josh, we’re proud of you too buddy👍🏻
I eat those all day

HI there Josh. If you have not tried an Alberto knot...try it out. It is really strong, easy to do with different thicknesses of line. You can use mono and braid and if done properly rides guides well..Great video.. Thanks from NZ.
11:36 you can literally hear the FG Knot crying
Amazing video dude
love this guy,hope he is recovering well from cancer
The best fishing channel... Good job
“This fish can kill you in 1 second” *jumps in the damn water with it*
Definitely needs to make a tv show
What a amazing video it was so intense!!!
The mathematics into
the resistance of this behemoth and this guy's weight defies the laws of science.THIS WAS A THRILLER.
Sawfish were common in the Halifax River in the early 1900's. My grandfather was the bridge tender on what is now the Granada Ave. Bridge in Ormond Beach. Before the causeways were built out to make building the bridges on this stretch of the Intracoastal cheaper (longer dirt causeway=shorter bridge = less $$) the river flowed freely and the bottom had healthy sea grass everywhere with hard shale bottom. He saw Sawfish everyday cruising in the shallows. What an awesome catch. I've seen three caught in my 60 years. One in the Tomoka Basin north of Ormond and two inside Ponce Inlet.
Man I love how he’s fighting the sawfish with crocs on like oml
Legend
I love it how this guy is as crazy as I am he’s like “there’s a mammoth but I only have this decent spinning combo….. i have too!!”
I am quickly becoming a big fan. Any chance that you can include the exact specs for rod, reel, lie? I am a newbie so I am trying to understand how configurations, even hooks all come into play
I caught a saw fish in key west off a 100 yard dock. It was about 12/15 foot including the nose. We were fishing for black tip sharks, and having luck. It was one of the craziest things I’ve ever caught.
Omg the rod was legit below a 90 degrees angle before holy
My buddy just caught 23 pound RedFish and it went below 90 degrees
If I had a sawfish on I would of fallen of the boat as soon as I caught it😂 keep up the good work josh
WOW that is a monumental catch of a life time!!!!!!!!!! Great video sad you didn't land it but really nice!!!
That initial hit, just the sound it made... what a beast
been here for about 3 years!
No lie your balance is amazing I would of been fell in 😂😂😂
I’ve been using a 9ft rod designed for catching wels catfish, it’s been an absolute tank for battling grouper, the thing has a 1 kg casting weight, I’ll never sleep on Euro fishing gear again. That was a legendary fight.
