 My leader's kind of changed and so are you. So this is the east wind of the day. In five, ten knots maybe. Two foot seas, really nice. We're about 50 miles offshore of the R2 tower. And we'll pull up here. Drop some baits down. Time to get some green snapper, black sea bass, maybe a group of red snappers. Can't keep any of those, but it should be a good day. It's nice and calm. This red right here, that's hard bottom, like rock bottom. But when it's like a sandy bottom, it'll be all broke up. And divots in the bottom. So we'll pull up to this tower, drop a feed, squid down until we can come. It's so crazy to be out here and doing some saltwater fishing. You know we're used to bass fishing. And he's like, yeah, it's an opportunity. He's endless out here. We can catch a bunch of different fish. I mean you can catch your bluegill, you can catch your catfish, you can catch your carp, you can catch your bass, your striper, but at the end of the day we're just going out there catching bass. So the cool part about today is this is a mystery. We don't know what we're going to catch. I'm sure we're going to catch a bunch of different fish. This is new to me. This is something I've never done before. And I've just pumped about it. Never been this far offshore. I've gone bay fishing three times on my boy Mark. A big shout to him. And this is just so new to me. So new to me. I'm excited about it today. If you guys aren't new to the channel, if you could hit that subscribe button. Hit the notification bell.

I'd love to come back out here and do this more. We have a lot of fish. We have a power bar here to keep them to the power. I'll just lock it up and just kind of bounce it right off bottom. And this isn't the best spot right now. The good spots are going to be when we go right over that reef. This is my old bass fisherman now. I'm doing anything wrong. Nah, you're good. I mean, you don't really have to charge it like that. Just kind of feel bottom with it. If you don't get anything out here, it's pretty quick fishing. If they're there, they're there. If they're out there, they're dead. We'll move around. We may run over here to this reef then because I'm not going to spend a bunch of time messing around on this tower. When we get over a good bottom, it'll mound up. When we get over here over this reef, this for these reefs, you know, stuff like that. That's the decent little spot. It's the old bottom that definitely comes over right there. Get on that side. Get on that side. Yep. Yeah, I felt some hit right there. Nah, I don't think it's anything crazy. Black sea bass. Nice. Can I lift him? He's got a little bit of teeth. But what you want to do, I like to use this rag so I don't have my hands all slimy. And then I'll show you. Hey, you're still kicking their bass. Got the sea bass today. So these guys kind of like a lot of fish. Their gills it's okay, you can hold them like this all day long. Yeah. But his gill plates right there super, super sharp. Super sharp. You can lift him. But his teeth, I mean, it's kind of like bass teeth. What is that? Because he's coming up from so deep. Really? Wow. He's not really deep but when you pull a fish out from real deep like that all the pressure coming up. Look at that. That's crazy. So these fish, these are deep, not really deep water fish, but they're really good fish. They're really caught in white meat. This is the first sea bass of the day. So there we go. We got our first fish today. This is the sea bass, which is hilarious because you know, kicking their bass out here on the salt water. We're going to see if we can find some more fish. Hopefully we'll get into something big today. That just feels good. That's my first ever offshore fish right there on camera. Got him? Yeah. I believe so. It's hard to tell with this big rod you got that thing on there. I don't think so. What is that? It's a coral fish. There's a lot of fish out here that do have teeth. I mean, they got teeth, but it's not. But that little guy, he can't do anything. Oh, that's a pretty fish. His teeth are sharp. Sharper than the other. Look at that fish. The markings on him. There's blue. Look at that. That's so pretty. He's got some little sharp ones on him. Nothing crazy. Sea bass. Sea bass. We'll start catching other stuff. The more you fish, you got one too. Nice. Kicking their bass on the sea bass. Boys, I don't know what that was. That was... Dude, that was... I got too excited and I went up with him. That's something big. That's something big, brother. Yeah, that's a fish. That's the best one today. He's got a little bit of size to him. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's something. I don't know what it is, but dude, he hammered the mess out of it right before that. I don't know. It's nothing super big, but I mean, compared to what we've been catching, let's see. He's coming up. What is it? What we got? Oh, my gosh, it is. That is awesome. Dude, that is sick right there. That is beautiful. Nice. Look at that, guys. First red snapper ever. That is crazy, man. Look at the colors on these fish. Just so beautiful. I always see my buddies holding pictures of these, but to catch my first one right here, nothing big. Still got a little fat belly on them. I got to be careful with what I'm poking, dude. All these little tiny... some little sharp fins on them. Pretty fish. There it goes. Uh-oh. What we got? Yeah, that's something bigger. Get back in there, man. They've got me up. They'll cut you up pretty good. Got a few snapper, doubled up on some. They actually got me pretty good. It's out of their gill plate. It sliced me open pretty solid. Couple little spots on my hand, but hey, that's fishing. This is what it is. Grab us a piece of this and it just looks amazing. You want a bite, Cody? Yeah, save me some. I'll save you a chunk for later. Just a little snack, you know? That's actually a piece I had in my eye. I'm sorry. I'll get you a fresh one. Yeah, that's big, bro. Yeah, there you go. That's big. That's big. It has to be bigger than those other ones, man. Oh, we got a sea bass. That's a dang good one, dude. Oh, yeah. Dude, look at that one. Oh, he's a dumpling. Look at that fish. That is a stud. What would we call that in bass fishing, Cody? That's a football, brother. That's a football. He's just got a huge head on him. Kind of a little fat tummy. His tail is just a little skinny, but that is just crazy. I just love the markings on these fish. You know, they're beautiful. You get that light blue on top of their head. Man, you can't beat that. What I've realized very quick, the colors on the fish, they're so pretty. That's fun to catch right there. We're on another stack, guys. Let's see if we can get something good. By the way, I got a little band-aid on my thumb. He offered. I know what might as well. Right? Yeah, they're stacked. We're going to catch them. Oh, wow. That's big, ain't it? Yeah. Did you see that? That was crazy. Oh, my God, he just pulled on. No way. He just pulled off right there. No way. He pulled off where he broke off. That was a good one, too, wasn't it? Dude, he almost nice to pull out. He's not really putting up that fight. That one that you just had, man, that was a good one. Seabass. Looks like maybe. Probably going to be 11 or 12 inches. 12, not 13. All right, here we go. Big one coming up. You ready? You got to get some redemption on that last fish, too. You got to get it. Let's double up on two good ones. I feel it. Right when it hit the bottom, I felt him tap it. That is so crazy. Guys, you can just do that. He's fighting a little bit different than anything we hooked today. I don't think he's really big. I'm kind of huffing him in, though. It's just so funny. I don't hear catching seabass. Never thought this day would come. I'm having a blast. This is just, oh my gosh. Look at that graph, Cody. That's a good one. I think so. He's fighting really weird. Oh, yeah, dude, that's a lot bigger. 10 years ago, you could keep that fish. So when did that change? I don't know, season on them. We've been sometime in the early, mid 2000s, I think. Really? I don't know exactly, but... They put a season on them. Can we use your towel? Show me what you do. You're catching a lot of fish a day, I'm assuming that's what you're doing, right? When we come out and catch them for the restaurant, catch a bunch of them. So you just put a towel and just grab them? I'm sure they'll beat you up, man. You caught that many fish in a day. Yeah. That was awesome. You put up a little fight. We'll fight a little harder than them sea bass. Oh my gosh. Nice. What a professional. Nice. That's bigging in it. Dude, you got them right there. Come on, pull that track. Come off of here, fish. My leader's kind of chased. He's a big one too, ain't he? Yeah, he's run too much. I've got him on bottom. I think I'm okay there, but he's dumped it a couple times. This has got to be a decent grouper. We're either a monster or a snapper. Could be a big amberjack. Oh dude, I'm excited. Dude, he is fighting. He's... pulling. He's coming. It doesn't feel like an amberjack though. It's like a snapper. Yeah, or either a grouper. There he is right there, whatever it is. Holy cow. That's the one you want to come get. Dude, let's go. That's more like it. That's a big one. Oh yeah. There we go. That's a snapper. Let's go. That's a big one. There he is. Probably, I don't know, 15, 20 pounds. This is a good one. That's a really good fish. Oh yeah. Got it? Yup. That was a good one. Well, we are off the water now and let me say that that was a really fun trip. It was my first time going pretty much offshore, you know, way out there. We went out around 50 miles and we caught a lot of fish today. We caught so many fish that I promise you not all of the catches will be in the video. We ended up catching some sea bass, some red snapper, some squirrel fish, and then a rock bass. I've never caught one before, so caught four new fish today and just had a great time. If you guys are new to the channel, hit that subscribe button. Hit the like button.
