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!
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.

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...
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
@@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
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.

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
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
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!
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.
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.
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!
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?
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
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

***TRUE FISHING STORY - LONG READ*** I know your pain. At least you got to see what it was though. I was fishing in the Delaware River near Phillipsburg, New Jersey about 8 years ago in July. My buddies and I had baught the 6 biggest live trout for bait that the bait shop we went to had. The smallest was 8 inches and the largest was about 12 inches. We were on the hunt for big stripers but knew there was also the possibility of catching a muskie or a big flathead catfish. After about 4 hours of fishing, we had landed 2 stripers over 20 lbs, my buddy's being closer to 25lbs. It was starting to get really dark and the biggest trout had gone belly-up in the live well, so rather than fish it under a balloon like we had been doing with the others, I tied up a heavy duty bottom rig. 218lb class Big game 3-way swivel, 5 oz pyramid sinker tied to one end of the swivel with 30lb monofilament, and a 9/0 octopus circle hook tied to the other end of the swivel with a 3 foot 80lb monofilament leader. I had a Rippin Lips 8 foot heavy action catfish spinning rod with an Okuma Avenger 6500 series baitrunner spooled up with 65 lb power pro braid. Now that you know what my tackle situation was, just imagine this. Like I said, it was starting to get really dark, almost pitch black except for what our headlamps were shining on, so I wanted to try this one last thing. I cast my bait right on the edge of the channel. My plan was to have it in the water for as long as it took us to clean up our surrounding area and pack up. I set my bait runner after the bait hit bottom and I got rid of the slack in the line. Not more than 5 mins after doing so, my drag starts a slow creep. I figured something had drifted into my line, so I picked up my rod, prepared to reel it in and call it a night. I felt a slow pull, but nothing I would relate to being a fish. So I started to reel in and no sooner than I felt resistance did this animal take off and start peeling drag off of my reel. By this point we couldn't see anything unless we were shining our headlamps directly at it. Slow pulls were followed by powerful tugs and eventually attempts to strip my reel of its line. As I was fighting this fish, we heard loud splashes out in the river that I would associate with people playing in a pool. For every foot of line I gained, this fish would end up taking two. Fast forward and I've been fighting the fish for nearly an hour now, mind you we were fishing from shore. All of a sudden we hear a boat coming up the river along the bank we were fishing from. My friends shouted to stay away while flashing their lights but I guess the boat operator, who ended up being a fisherman himself, misunderstood and thought we needed help. As he came closer up river to us and the bank we were fishing from, my fish made one last lightning run out in front of and past his boat and proceed to turn and run down river. At this point, I was terrifed of my line going under the boat and getting cut by the prop, so I tried to high stick my rod in an attempt for my line to go over the boat. Unfortunately, this was when I found out the guy was a fisherman, I didn't notice his fishing rods standing straight up until my line hit them. The first pole snapped after being smacked into a rail and the much larger second pole snagged the line, pulling it down to the stern where it was ultimately cut by a sharp edge somewhere. I felt bad for two reasons. The loss of a monster fish I didn't even get to see, and for one of this man's rods being broken when he was attempting to help us. I asked him if he wanted a replacement for the rod and he laughed and said "Nah! It was an old beater anyway. You look like you could use a drink though." And I definitely needed one. He threw me a can of PBR without even asking how old I was. (I was only 18 😆) I'll never forget that fish as long as I live. Never faught anything like it before and I'm not sure I ever will again. I just wish I could have seen what it was.
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
They had one of these at sea world a long time ago probably 10 years since I’ve been as kid. This thing was insane to see for a 8-9 year old kid. Now that I’m older I appreciate it more especially getting to see it in person. Any one been there recently is he still there ??

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.
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.
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.
that cat in the white shirt.......he knew it.......OHHHHHH it's a hammerhead I know it is........OHHHHHH that definitely a ray 100% .......OHHHHHH it's a sawfish I knew it I told you.......HUMMMM sketchy fellow...yeah whatever u said I agree.......come on bro ..... REALLY ???.......TIGHT LINES

From an addict through anxiety depression and suicide tendency till fishing hook me And change my life thank to black tips h darsizzle senko skipper and deer meat for dinner
Man it was driving me nuts. Im sure he knows more about fishing than me but damn I think thats what cost him that fish. He hit that last run with the rod pointed at the fish an put all the strain right on his line
So in SA we do alot of shore fishing for monster sharks, and straight sticking it like that is a method to recover strategy during a long battle, esp when the fish goes on a big run. No point ruining your back if the fight might last 5 hours.
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.
Bro...I feel your pain. NO BS here...my recurring nightmare is from 18 years ago. Guitar Fish are small...3' or so...what I caught on an 9/0 Electric, 100 main Momoi, 150 10' leader, 12/0 circle with a small 5 lb Bonita for bait in 190' foot of water and a double crimped 14/0 hook was insane. At 1:00am on a full July Moon scared me for life. I consider myself highly skilled and pretty knowledgeable angler...this beast ran from a depth of a 180' to the surface like a rocket ship in roughly 2 minutes and was heading SSW....dragged our little 23' Ranger 230c Offshore for 5 miles and spooled the reel down to 10% at 75% drag before surfacing and under the spreader bar lights on....we were like no F'n way. 20 to 23' feet long with a tail the size of a telephone pole, black black, white belly. Wingspan looked to be 16 to 18' on the first pair of wings, the second pair were 6 to 8 feet across. After a few attempts to lay it down the side of the gunnel for pics...it said...goodbye..and slowly disappeared into the night. Have any idea what it was? Largest Guitar I could find in books was 48" long....not 22 feet.
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
The only Goliath I’ve ever landed was on a spinning reel a little smaller than the one josh was using. 40 lb braid. It was a 350 female in the FLATS. Hooked it going after lemon sharks
@@IAppreciateSlaps i know that, i do shark n Skate fishing off the coast of Scotland but all rods can only take so much pressure. It depends on the class.

I felt bad for two reasons. The loss of a monster fish I didn't even get to see, and for one of this man's rods being broken when he was attempting to help us. I asked him if he wanted a replacement for the rod and he laughed and said "Nah! It was an old beater anyway. You look like you could use a drink though." And I definitely needed one. He threw me a can of PBR without even asking how old I was. (I was only 18 😆) I'll never forget that fish as long as I live. Never faught anything like it before and I'm not sure I ever will again. I just wish I could have seen what it was.
Billy Freeman it was a minnow get over it
Sounds like sturgeon
Worth the read brother!
You probably didn't sleep that night. I know I wouldn't have
Dude your vids are the things that inspires me the fish and I love it
Best video I have seen on the web all day! Amazing!
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.
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!!!”
Love your videos. I have tried a couple other channels but yours are the best
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!
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
They had one of these at sea world a long time ago probably 10 years since I’ve been as kid. This thing was insane to see for a 8-9 year old kid. Now that I’m older I appreciate it more especially getting to see it in person. Any one been there recently is he still there ??
I love blacktip and his videos he never click baits just strait to point awesome fishing 🔥👌
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
Here is the Original Semitic Text. Guys, YOU really NEED to read this
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
love this guy,hope he is recovering well from cancer
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
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.
Him: I only have a spinning rod
Me: $30 Walmart pole
My pole: SNAP
That initial hit, just the sound it made... what a beast
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.
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.
Wow that’s crazy! Hooking two in a lifetime! That’s awesome man
that cat in the white shirt.......he knew it.......OHHHHHH it's a hammerhead I know it is........OHHHHHH that definitely a ray 100% .......OHHHHHH it's a sawfish I knew it I told you.......HUMMMM sketchy fellow...yeah whatever u said I agree.......come on bro ..... REALLY ???.......TIGHT LINES
For real I couldn't stand that I was tempted to mute the video
Dude in white is a moron
Literally a dinosaur.
I totally knew it was a sawfish right away dude! 😂😂🖕🏼
Yeah that kid was ridiculously annoying
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
I need my relationship to be as strong as that rod
Hah

Man I love how he’s fighting the sawfish with crocs on like oml
Legend
Love your vids blacktiph keep up the great work
He tells you not to get close to the fish then later he jumps in the water with it
Yep. Thats fishing bro. Just found your site. Think. There's been 3 saw bills thats been hooked. 2 hammer head. Coo Doos to your channel
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!
From an addict through anxiety depression and suicide tendency till fishing hook me
And change my life thank to black tips h darsizzle senko skipper and deer meat for dinner
Definitely needs to make a tv show
Most people go their whole life without catching one of these fish yet alone see one in the wild. This man has now hooked two 😳.
"I'll catch a nice, humble blacktip now..."
Lied to yourself dude 😉
Dude agrees with his buddy no matter what
The best fishing channel... Good job
“This fish can kill you in 1 second” *jumps in the damn water with it*
11:36 you can literally hear the FG Knot crying
Your the best UA-cam in the world by far!
3:25 Thats the face of "I've made a huge mistake" 😂
oh my God that's the biggest fish I never seen
The shark that all of the sudden snagged the fish was a literal jump scare.
why did you point the rod!!! I was yelling at the screen like it was a football game! lol
SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Man it was driving me nuts. Im sure he knows more about fishing than me but damn I think thats what cost him that fish. He hit that last run with the rod pointed at the fish an put all the strain right on his line
So in SA we do alot of shore fishing for monster sharks, and straight sticking it like that is a method to recover strategy during a long battle, esp when the fish goes on a big run. No point ruining your back if the fight might last 5 hours.
Facts
But if drag is set right that wouldn't be an issue
1. Rule: Like before watching 🙌😊
Nice video as always, keep it going and have a nice day
Max Ehrhardt Lol I already do that
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.
I wish I was friends with them so I could say “dude” as much as I know I was born to....
That’s awesome
1000 lb fish on a spinning reel.... un-reel
Stahp
Lol
Bro...I feel your pain. NO BS here...my recurring nightmare is from 18 years ago. Guitar Fish are small...3' or so...what I caught on an 9/0 Electric, 100 main Momoi, 150 10' leader, 12/0 circle with a small 5 lb Bonita for bait in 190' foot of water and a double crimped 14/0 hook was insane.
At 1:00am on a full July Moon scared me for life. I consider myself highly skilled and pretty knowledgeable angler...this beast ran from a depth of a 180' to the surface like a rocket ship in roughly 2 minutes and was heading SSW....dragged our little 23' Ranger 230c Offshore for 5 miles and spooled the reel down to 10% at 75% drag before surfacing and under the spreader bar lights on....we were like no F'n way. 20 to 23' feet long with a tail the size of a telephone pole, black black, white belly. Wingspan looked to be 16 to 18' on the first pair of wings, the second pair were 6 to 8 feet across. After a few attempts to lay it down the side of the gunnel for pics...it said...goodbye..and slowly disappeared into the night.
Have any idea what it was? Largest Guitar I could find in books was 48" long....not 22 feet.
Thanks, Offshoreangler 28
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
"You got to let him eat it" "oh yeah" "no you can't" "yeah you can't"
I'm more impressed with the fishing line he used.
Anyone else scared he was gonna slip into the water?
Edit : thanks for the couple of likes guys
Alston Zhang always
Good Content if he does
Yup, for sure when he had the shark on
The only Goliath I’ve ever landed was on a spinning reel a little smaller than the one josh was using. 40 lb braid. It was a 350 female in the FLATS. Hooked it going after lemon sharks
The only thing you caught was aids big fella 😥😰🥵
You’ve mentioned this on multiple videos and the story seems to change a little each time. You don’t have to lie to kick it.
Its amazing how those rods hold up and don’t snap!
What was that rod made of titanium lol
Yea all fishing rods bend like that it just depends on the reel and line
@@IAppreciateSlaps i know that, i do shark n Skate fishing off the coast of Scotland but all rods can only take so much pressure. It depends on the class.
Its made out of Vibranium
Valyrian steel alloy with vinranium
Oh my god. I can’t believe you lost that fish just seconds before landing it...
The mathematics into
the resistance of this behemoth and this guy's weight defies the laws of science.THIS WAS A THRILLER.
him: catching extremely endangered fish
also him: cool
me: catches tiny feesh
also me: YAY
Amazing video dude
I can't even imagine how you feel ☹️ My heart broke for you when that line broke 😢 I hope you get a chance at another one.
Amazing👍👍👍
Really you are stronge man
I would like to aske you about the kind of this rod and kind of fishing line and the whole rig how it made
Thank you very much
