Exploring Skinny Creeks for MASSIVE Redfish

Today we took out the Micro Skiff to explore some super narrow creeks, we caught a massive "bruiser" redfish to make our trip.

You would of loved my old Mosquito Lagoon 20 years ago. Super skinnny water,no tide change if any. Tons of fish . Of course man made environmental issues have changed those days. At 65 years old Florida uses its waters as a septic tank in our Indian river. Nice vid Cheers.

It’s sad to see. I’ve listened to podcasts talking about mosquito lagoon and how great it used to be. Thanks for the comment and support

[@lnomolas3427]

Agree, that Skitterwalk color is like fisherman jewelry - gotta have that.

[@christian_masterson]

For sure, thanks for the view and comment!

First time viewer. I'm in the Pine Island/Matlacha area and do much back water exploring on my Hobie Outback. Beautiful red! Thanx for sharing!

[@wht80vette]

Yep, in Fl too you had me at incoming tide or else you would have been walking out of there! Well done 👍

[@christian_masterson]

For sure

[@michaelhawkins9068]

Christian, I search for this kind of fishing and exploring content, so thanks. Dude, you got it done! I said "HOLY SHIT!" when you tossed her in the skiff like a watermelon.Where you at? [generally] - Hawk

[@christian_masterson]

😂😂😂. I will be doing a bunch of this type of fishing on the skiff on this channel, so make sure your tuned in. And I’m based out of Naples. Fish anywhere from matlacha area to chokoloskee and the Everglades!

Nice video of area and nice catch on that red. I on the east coast and got hooked on using the NLBN 3”/5”paddles and catch great variety on them. Keep it coming, like backwater where few go.

[@christian_masterson]

I’ll be sure to keep cranking them out. And me too man, they’ve been producing great fish

[@Carolinaskinnywater]

Nice job with that red.

[@christian_masterson]

[@anchorsaway1062]

Enjoyed the video. You know you’re a SWFL gangster when you get in the water to land a fish. I’ve gone in the water for my buddy when his 40” snook got wrapped in the groves

[@christian_masterson]

Haha sometimes there’s no other way. I’m sure that’s an awesome story, thanks for the support!

[@alancastellon9225]

great video, and beautiful redfish you'll always remember.

[@christian_masterson]

Absolutely

[@markmasterson2271]

Awesome video. Loved it.

[@CharlotteHarborFisherman]

Love exploring the black water creeks.

[@christian_masterson]

It’s the best

Great video! Liked and subscribed

[@christian_masterson]

You’re the man! Thank you

[@gerryaudy981]

Nice work on that slob of a redfish, man. That holographic pearl skitter is my personal goto and have worn out several of them. It's truly amazing to be able to get that far back in those deep little creeks and ponds and see what lives back there. It's also an amazing fisherie we have here in the 10k islands/ENP area, also known as paradise to us that are fortunate to call this area home! As always, you're creating some solid content, keep it up and tight lines.

[@christian_masterson]

Thanks for another great comment, I appreciate your support. The deep creeks and ponds are my favorite thing to explore!

[@katievernon1729]

Great video

I just stumbled across your channel last week. Really appreciate your content. So many youtubers try to make videos that are purely highlight reels, never mentioning things like what the tide is doing, water depth in the area, time of day, how long they've been trying a technique, why they're switching or moving etc... To me, it's that science of fishing that's really exciting and I've noticed you include those details in every video you make. Keep it up. You do a nice job!

[@christian_masterson]

I appreciate that man. I’m gonna keep cranking out the content, I hope to share some information along the way!

[@MarkEricksonArtist]

Great stuff, what region of FL is this?

[@christian_masterson]

SW Florida, I’m based out of Naples. Fish anymore from matlacha to the Everglades usually

[@bricesullivan4439]

What do you use to film the vids?

[@christian_masterson]

A mix of GoPros for the fishing stuff and a Fujifilm XS-10 for cinematic/better quality shots of fish and other scenes.

[@saramasterson7688]

How much do you think the red fish weighs?

[@christian_masterson]

100 pounds

[@wht80vette]

😂

[@graciever]

What did u catch this fish on?

[@christian_masterson]

Most were on NLBN 3 inch and one snook on 3 inch skitterwalk

[@codycater7114]

Absolute toads every video

[@christian_masterson]

🤙🤝

[@josiahclevenger7343]

Click bait getting crazy these days…let’s settle down on the “massive”

[@christian_masterson]

Personally I think a 32 inch red on artificial deserved that title, Tight lines👊
