Great fish. The torpedo is a great way to release them. Im from Jacksonville and know of the spot your at, its fairly deep. All the bull reds I have caught in the st johns you need to vent. Next time you catch one that big you should vent it for best chance of survival. You can find voutube videos on how to do it very easily.

Literally zero reason to vent any fish caught in the St. John's. Especially if you have fought it to the boat so it had time to adjust itself and didn't just winch it straight up from the bottom. Venting is for bottom fish in 80+ft. That area of the river is 50ft tops. Venting is not even recommended anymore because it kills fish when not done right. Descending device is how to release those bottom fish now

Great video! I fish that area often. I use live shrimp or finger mullet with light tackle with 120 yards of 20lb test with a 50lb leader. Trolling motor to chase em down!!! I understand your concern but we've never sent one floating. 😎

Awesome, thank you for watching! Glad you successfully revive those beasts! Sounds like a blast for sure chasing them down!

I fished in the same exact place in Jacksonville. I saw a huge red that was floating one day and barely moving. It was not released properly. I wish people would catch them and release them quickly with a quick photo to be done, not take a bunch of glamour shots with it. Imagine sprinting a mile and having your head stuck in the water for a few minutes to compare to what the fish may feel. I spent time reviving it and finally it swam off. The boats a few yards caught him/her but did not realize it floated back up. Great video, subscribed!

Thanks for watching and saving that fish. Another issue is they fight those bulls with light tackle and extend the fight instead of adequate tackle to get them in quicker, revive and sent back down. Thanks for subscribing!

I see that you're putting in A Sister Creek. My favorite Jacksonville Boat Ramp.
@truluvinfishing11 ай бұрын
Yes that is one of my go to ramps, it offers access to quick inshore fishing and deep water as well!
@icarussisyphus6 ай бұрын
I like that ramp because they offer a free hose down station spickets to clean your boat and rinse the engine.

awesome vid! just wondering how do you know where exactly to fish? im gonna try and go for some this fall and i would love to know what area you're catching them at. great fish!
@truluvinfishing4 ай бұрын
I appreciate the compliment and you watching. I will share this, you are correct about the fall. I have rushed it and tried as early as late August and struck out. Late September and October are ideal. Focus on the river closer to the Mayport inlet at the tide swings. If you use the steps in the video you will catch them moving in and out.
