Catching a huge red snapper

[Vamooska]

50 - 60 lbs????? Really???? NOT!

Its a nice snapper but it is no where near 50 lbs. Sorry Charlie

[TheLespaul316]

thats not a red snapper its a cubera snapper

[karlk1125]

Definitely a Cubera. What a shame to kill it. They are probably the worst eating of the snapper species.

[rburry]

Sniper4fun6, It probably is a cubera snapper. This is in Panama in a town called Boca Brava. The company we did the charter with is Panama Big Game

[Sniper4fun6]

you sure that's a red snapper looks like a cubera snapper or dog snapper but still nice catch where were you guy's fishing.?

[olhippie1]

Red snapper don't get that size, and look quite different than that "Cubera "snapper (sometimes called a grey snapper).

[HALO3JUNKEY]

It's not a Red Snapper. It is a Cubera Snapper.

[rad00068]

im on a boat

[thecapndandy]

sure looks like a cubera and not a red to me.

[ramatuzzi]

Great video and fish! Congrats!

[01steeda]

the guy was correct about the red snapper. the world record for a red is 50lb 4 ounces and was caught by my uncle out of Port Fourchon Louisiana. look up Doc Kennedy. Very nice fish you have there, but I would say it is in the mid 40's.

[MMOLegend]

Very nice catch, I fish Sitka Alaska aver few years and catch them, biggest I caught was 39 Lbs but seen 50+lbs at the docks.....Well done

[Clint122]

i ccaught a 35 lbs red snapper in tybee island

[DoctorSargeMD]

My dad caught a 44 pound red snapper 3 days ago... and we ate it because the scale was set to a 10 pound reduction so we thought it was 34 pounds. :(

[ryan13003]

cubera snapper....  but a big one for sure

[AOTEAROAsam]

the newzealand ones are way better looking.

[rburry]

Biach u callin my snapper ugly??

[gonein7]

im with you on that one,great table fish,used alot of fine dining restaurants

[taiwarriorz21]

omg this dude called it a red snapper! it's a freaking Cubera Snapper dude.

[bzscubashark]

It looks more like a dog snapper, if you look at the light stripe below it's eyes, and the brown coloration. Cuberas are more grey and they have darker stripes along their backs. Either way, that's a sweet f'ing deal.

[nnoah21]

i am going deep sea fishing in 2 weeks thanks for showing me this fish and i hipe i catch it

[kittymiiow]

Snapper is one of my favourite fish its very good eating fish sweet and sour or steam red snapper is my favourite

[dmx1369]

thats called a cubera snapper you idiot. red snapper dont get bigger than 20;bs the world record red snapper was 50 lb. 4 oz.

[rburry]

You fisherman are really angry people. Take a Tegretol and chill out.

It's a big fish and it's a snapper. I can't wait to go out again and get more!

[Angler91]

well nice fish and fun fight eauther way huh

[Angler91]

are u sure that wasent a cubera snapper?

[rburry]

Maybe. I don't know that much about fish. They call it Pargo in spanish for all snappers.

[cralde0fbodom]

Very nice fish, but Ive caught a bigger Pink Snapper than that :P

[rburry]

You got video?

[cralde0fbodom]

I havent been on a boat in a few years, but when i did, nobody but rich people could afford video cameras, plus even if you owned one, who would be f&cking stupid enough to take it out on a boat with chance of it getting wet or sinking to the bottom of the deep blue.

[antman1991]

thats a nice fish, abit different to the snapper we get over here tho lol
