Giant Houndfish, Jacks and Sharks - Inshore Fishing in Florida - ft. Paul Cuffaro

In this episode of BlacktipH, I go fishing inshore in Florida with my buddy Paul Cuffaro, in search of giant houndfish, jacks, and sharks. We began the day using frozen ballyhoo for bait to catch houndfish. After a couple drifts with the bait, I was hooked up! While I was releasing my houndfish, Paul hooked up and caught his first houndfish of the day. The bite was consistent for the next hour until I hooked one of the biggest houndfish either of us has ever seen! The giant houndfish fought for five minutes before getting tired. At noon, we decided to go fishing for jack crevalles. Both Paul and I hooked a giant jack crevalle, and within seconds, both fish had defeated us by breaking off on the dock. After catching the jacks, Paul and I decided to go shark fishing. We anchored the boat and threw a chum bag in the water. While we were waiting for a shark, a massive school of ballyhoo surrounded the boat. I started catching them by using very tiny hooks. The ballyhoo school left the area, and within an hour we had a shark bite. I reeled tight and the shark was hooked up! It was a massive 200+lb nurse shark.

Houndfish are extremely underrated, They are gnarly fish

[@brandongamble5223]

Joe 127 gnarly

[@funguy7979]

They're edible too. What turns people off is that the meat is a greenish color but tastes good regardless.

[@TheRAMBO9191]

I'm new to the channel I enjoy what you show off, currently looking into getting my fishing liscence for a year to start, but just lake fishing. I'm in PA so nothing fancy like an ocean or as scary hahahaha first time seeing the Goliath Grouper on this channel I was amazed. Can you imagine deep sea diving and something that big coming out of the misty dark water. NOPE. Let alone a carnivorous fish......or a large blue whales slightly open mouth coming toward you.

[@kuliinett3312]

wow.. that's a favorite fish in my village.. 👍👍👍

[@subashinivijayakumar7739]

Honestly in the summer here in England, we’d be lucky if the weather was at atleast 20°

[@blaker8793]

There is a reason why there is all those memes of people in Florida when it’s “cold”. No joke I am in shorts and t shirts and sweating in 50 degrees. Going to be negative 63 in Chicago tomorrow.

[@brodypeake4179]

I've caught those in my cast net in the surf before!
