Nice job.
Beautiful Snook.
WOW THAT IS SO FLIPPIN COOL!
Wow that is a monster snook!!! Great catch👌🏻
Thanks 👍
Wow!That was intense!
FANTASTIC JOB on the battle!! My video would've had ALLL BLEEPS if I was you there!! I fish the beach in Jupiter so I don't go through COMPLETE HELL!!!
Aug. 7th COVID at 7AM on my 2nd cast with a swim bait landed my 1st 40! CHANGED MY WORLD!!!!
Those snook are smart as hell. They know there is a hook in the bait but sometimes they can't help it and try to get the bait off it without getting hooked and sometimes lose! It's not very often but they do slip up every once in a while😎. Congrats bro👍👍
Justin, I felt like I was in the boat with you… That was epic!” oh, this is such a bad situation”😂
Wow, great rodeo!
Awesome
Massive snook 🤙🏻
Great big mansion you do one about the boat
nice mullet !
SICK BRO! Subscribed
Thank you! New video out today around 5.
@@justin_menendez Yea no problem. I'll be working on one this weekend too if the tide comes in
Top 5 Best Manuevers for a fish I've ever seen going under the dock. Solid fish.
OMG
awesome
You're truly an EXPERT, Justin! Amazing instructional video! Great job!!
I wonder wat part of this is instructional
Cool vid ! Snook only in Big Pass , spawning now ,. Got water prob,s here , red tide ! How bot u ???????
30lb leader fishing for 40 inchers next to docks? That’s ballsy
This was like a Spanish Novela
Love watching you pulling Snook around docks. Justin you got some awesome talent there.
I never watch a video this long but I couldn't stop watching 👍👏👏
Like oh you fight that 40, pound
That had me on the edge of my seat, I fly fish and this was exciting!!
Thanks!!
Can’t believe you don’t have way more subs!! Really enjoying living vicariously through your videos while we’ve still got snow on the ground.
Thats awesome to hear, thanks for watching my videos!
Wow bro, that Initial run was epic!! Great job navigating through the docks..
Thank you!
Great work clearing that monster out from under the docks - you earned that fish!
Love ur channel bro.........as my boy JON B say........ keep fishing never stop........ YEAH BUDDY........
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Absolutely awesome video bro, epitome of loving a gheenoe, that creeping under the dock life. And that things initial run... Stuff dreams are made of
Thanks!
Dude this is one of your best early vids. What an intense ride!!!! Badassssss
Well deserved catch you definitely worked for it
Thanks!!
Great vid ! What every Fla fisherman would like !
Thanks!!
Had to come back and re watch. Glad i did, keep up the good work man! I've been in the same situation too many of times. It makes it so rewarding having to work so hard to get them in expecially on a 3k
beautiful technique all the way and that kids is how you do it congrats !!!
Solid fishing, outstanding fish fighting around the dock, great video!
OK which county!!!!
Do you need really good gear to land a big snook?
Stormy no, but it helps. Lighter gear is more exiting though
Nice work!
Whats your instagram?
@saltyscales
helps to Tighten the Drag
What a fish never got one that big , question for you I use to fish the surf a lot using 15lb mono now I am starting to wad the Indian river dur to the winter months the surf sucks due to dirty water and high east winds starting around December or so , now I'm using 12 lb mono with a 30 lb leader have you ever fished this light line before ? I don't eat fish but just love the battle, thanks
I use 20 pound braid with 30 pound mono or flouro leader.
One mistake I seen is when i hooked him u decided to run up towards the dock big no no, u hook up on a big fish like that u get as far as u can away from structure
She already had me beat to the dock. I wasnt going to turn her head once she went on a run. So in my opinion my best chance of landing that fish was follow her into the dock and it worked out for me
No no I'm saying when she got the bait n ran as soon as she stopped for a plit second turn away
wonderful eyeing the needle like that.
Those evasive maneuvers with the gheenoe under the dock were legit!!
I know!!
Wow that was better then seeing a Movie great job 👍
Dock master!! Nice Catch man!!!🎣
Thanks!
Dude you had me holding my breath fighting that momma. Way to go! I can not wait to join the 40" club. 👍🏻
Amazing snook!!!!
Thanks!
ESPECTACULAR PESCA DE UN GRAN ROBALO FELICITACIONES
That was the craziest fight if ever seen lol
Thanks!
This video is exactly why I no longer fish frshwater 👍🏾
Damn, you kept me at the edge of my seat. Well done!
If that isn't fish porn, nothing is. Nice work.
When ur sight fishing for them do you look for sand bars or flats?
Normally wherever the water is shallow and clear
You are tenacious! Great job. My biggest snook is 10lb (on a fly) but your leviathan was like a nuclear sub compared to my canoe! WTG! That first run was insane.
sick video dude!
Thanks!
what boat are u using
what glasses do u use ?! cuz i’m trying to get a pair but idkk what color to get
I have RCI Optics Spanish House.
Hell of a job there man. Can’t believe you kept her pinned after all that. Good work!
Thank you!
Bee pouring through your videos...I thought to myself this young man can fish!...after this catch I’m thinking dude, you are off the charts!..fantastic hook up, fight and land...I’m not sure if you will see this, but I’m working on a 11” mullet for you to try!
I subbed bro! Im digging the videos. When I'm done editing I'll be posting a monster poon that spooled my 3000stradic! Tight lines bro
I see that stake out hole in your trolling mount. That will keep the big fish from dragging your gheenoe around. Excellent patience landing and releasing it sir! Fished that area once and can't wait to get back in a few weeks.
I would stake out the boat if I wasnt near structure! If I stake the boat out and the fish runs under a dock I wont be able to race over there and untagle it before it breaks me off.
Justin Menendez Inshore Fishing I just read you were undergunned on rod and reel. I see your point
One a those tomes where you don't need a bigger boat! 😂
Badass fight bro! Good fishin!
That is a pig love the way you handled it at the end true fisherman
Beef up that rod and reel
Fantastic honestly!!
Thanks!!
What is the address and what is the name of the place?
Legit question as a non Florida native, are u guys never concerned with alligators and the attention a struggling fish this size could attract? or even inland bullshark for that matter? Im assuming they are passive in the day time and not much threat but I still doubt I would just be chilling in the water to handle the fish as murky as it is.
Just keep yours eyes out. I’ve never heard of anyone having issues with alligators or sharks inshore while landing fish. They are around but never been an issue for me.
This is like watching a Scott Martin video.
Respect bro💪🏼🏆🔥
what kind of boat do you have?
That was def a giant!
Well done.
Thanks!
Snook-zilla, awesome!
What a fight man. Great catch hope to see more of those hog battles.
Thanks!
Nice 👍 fire 🔥 🔥 vid big Snook Epic catch 🎣
Epic catch young man.
Thanks!
awesome sauce! quality fish! felt like i was fighting the fish w/ you.
Thanks!!!
Great fishing bro
AWESOME VIDEO!!! What is the best bait for snook or intercoastal fish in brakish waters
What kind line and weight
Spiderwire invisibraid 30 pound with 30 pound flouro leader.
Freakin awesome video best fish to catch
"F" me bro........I've casted at over 100 forty inch snook...... hooked 3....NEVER landed one.......my PB 38 1/2 ...........damn it.........love ur channel........CANT WAIT FOR MY 40............stay safe........ PEACE
Crazy video 🤙🏼
This is an awesome video dude #subbed
Thanks!
Hey great video!!! Just wondering your choice of line and hook size. Thanks
nice fish! not easy to land them once they get into those pylons , good work
Don’t bring a knife to a gun fight! lmao gotta get a beefier set up if you’re fishing around a lot of structure go for a 30-50 blank with a 6k reel
What rod and reel where you using?? What size reel too?
7 ft Star Rod Seagis medium. With a 3000 Penn Conflict.
Need bigger setup to stop them snook n tarpon
vape kingg I do have one, unfortunately its under maintenance now snd have not been able to use it. Luckily my boat helps me navigate through structure in order to land these fish!
Drag should be set a little tighter.
Al contrario con ese equipo fué una pesca épica.con uno mas pesado seria una pesca mas de un muy buen snook
How did you keep your boat from moving while casting? Were you anchored??
No, the water was just very calm and I stand very still.
OMG! 620 Views. WOW! :-)
Nothing better / worse than getting dogged on light tackle lmfao certainly not for those with heart problems 😂
😂
Ha ha...Someone commented on one of my snook vids that you don't take a knife to a gun fight. I hope you purchase lottery tickets because you are so lucky! More videos please!
I will be able to work on 5+ plus more in December! In school rn.
Excellent! I'll see the notification.
How much pound test on your main line
20 pound Invisibraid.
U need to up your gear so u can put pressure on them u won't go through all that trouble
Are you using polarized glasses to see the fish easier?
yes, the camera cant see the fish as well as I can.
