Please read my channel info The Commercial fishermen of America needs you support now.The so called conservation groups like the cca,nmfs,and pew have made stopping the commercial fishing into a big money making business with the donations from the public that does not know what is really going on and from government grants for thier bad data on the fish. Please do not believe all their lies about the fish population and the commercial fishermen .THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF RED SNAPPER IN FACT THEY HAVE TAKEN OVER THE OIL RIGS!NO LAWS BROKE IN THIS VID!

Thanks Again

  • dumb ass! recreational fisherman catch more snapper a year then commercial fisherman go to NOAA and check the stats, its not just about what u get to catch with your little fishing pole, its about the country

  • I love fishing. I love boats. I am a towbat skipper on the river and I build wooden boats for fun. Hoping the snapper fishing will be good once te red tide passes. Looking fwd to next year.

  • I understand that you have to feed your families and you are out there breaking your back and that you probably have been doing this type of work for generations, but I have been offshore fishing "recreationaly" for 25 yrs and the reason I'm told why we cant keep but 2 snaps is because the commercial catch gets the lionshare of the quota.. plus we get less than 60 days before the nmfs close the season.. factor in horrible weather and you might get in 3 trips at 3.65 gal gas .. UNSUSTAINABLE !!

  • cool

  • miss the water myself workd on a 56 ft steel hull called the southern cross i loved it

  • @brachan021 NOAA has the balls to say that Surf fisherman take more striped bass then commercial fisherman

  • FUCK NOAA

  • wow!!!!!

  • we caught 1,400 pounds in a few hours on the 1st spot we stopped on last year. So far this year I have only been recreational fishing in the gulf and EVERY reef is COVERED with snapper from the bottom to 10 feet below the surface in 100 feet of water.

  • fantastic video!
