    Such a great video man. From the fishing action, to e-meeting your girlfriend, to all the funny shit that went down, and to the choices for music for this video it was just top notch. Great job dude!!

    You gotta learn your carribean fish, bruv lol. First fish was a yellowtail snapper. The nexr bunch of fish you caught after the stingray were grunts. Then a wrasse. And then a big eyed john.....looks like you had fun though. Love from a Bahamian.

    Jeez that's some awesome footage. Always wondered what it would be like to fish tropical like that. Can't get too mad losing a bunch of tackle and breaking rods while out in the Bahamas haha. Congrats to your gf catching her first fish, got my wife on her first out the kayak this season and it was amazing to witness. I'd be so tempted to eat a bunch of those ocean critters 😎🔥

      Thanks brother, really glad you enjoyed it. It was an unreal experience not knowing what you were going to pull out next. Super proud of the gf, she killed it for her first time. Would have loved to do a catch cook but didn't really have the tools necessary. Appreciate the support brother!

    Awesome video and tips about fishing from shore. The Bahamas are of our favorite places to go to for our vacation. The rocky shores hold more fish than the sandy beaches. For the Barracudas you'll need steel leaders next time. Thank you for sharing your adventure.

      Thanks so much for checking out the video! Such crazy fishing down there, you really never know what you are going to catch aside from the unreal scenary. After realizing 50-80lb fluro wouldn't cut it, steel leaders were my next thought haha. Appreciate the support!

    • @TheBigFishEnergy
      @TheBigFishEnergy  Рік тому

      Hey Cody! Tha ks for checking out the video brother, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was running 50lb braid and 50lb fluro for leader. The fluro still wasn't enough for some of those teeth😬if I were to do it again, I would go with a heavier action travel rod, slightly longer, and a slightly bigger reel. Other then that, such a killer time man. Thanks for checking out the video!

    Your "pineapple jack" was actually a yellowtail snapper. Shame you couldn't keep it, those things are one of the most delicious and highly prized fish in the Caribbean. Also an expensive fish if you find them at a restaurant in Florida or something

    • @TheBigFishEnergy

      @@TheBigFishEnergy no problem! You actually had a nice little assortment of grouper, snapper, wrasse, and blue striped grunts. Typical reef fish down there. I'll be there next month looking for bonefish and Barracuda on my fly rod before going offshore for sailfish and whatnot. By the way, that wrasse is also called a "slippery dick" no BS. You can Google it 😆

    If your wondering, the fish that grunt are called grunts and the fish at 12:52 is (this isn’t the real name but it’s what we call it) called a “pudding wife”. And at 15:31 that’s a squirrel fish. Me and my family go to the Bahamas a lot, some of the best fishing I ever ever done, that looked like an amazing trip 👍

    Surprise, your grunting fish is called a " Grunt" fish. The big eye fish is actually a shallow reef fish called a Big Eye Red Fish. Commonly called a Big Eye John fish in the Bahamas. It is not a snapper fish.
