Fishing with Huge Squid as Bait to Catch Something Bigger

I was fishing with Dr. Marwan in the Red Sea in Aqaba, Jordan, using huge squid as bait to catch a larger, more aggressive predator in the ocean. Swordfish love eating squid, and I was shocked to see how easily a swordfish can swallow a giant Humboldt Squid. I was using giant Humbdolt Squid as live bait for the swordfish.

Hey Josh, not trying to be your mother, and I know this is several months old, but I can tell you that since you previously had cancer, you really should protect your hands with gloves. The chance that you get an infection or sepsis is pretty high post cancer treatment and we don't want to see anything happen to you. Talk to your doctor about it. I know you're an adult and you have everything handled, but obviously we want to see you around for a long time. I know gloves suck and theyre hot, uncomfortable, ungainly, etc.

[@BlacktipH]

Really appreciate the feedback buddy! I will definitely talk to my doctor about this 🙏

[@Htman-bw5tu]

Thats some quality advice. 🙌

[@HeadHoncho727]

I honestly didn't even think about that. Smart

[@zachfamoly4965]

Let him live

[@dylonpress7034]

I shall also use that advice

[@FishingSGsWild]

Josh, this is by far your best series!! throughly enjoyed it and glad your health is much better now. Well done fishy one.

[@RuralAsia]

Jedes Mal, wenn ich deine Videos anschaue, erfüllt Freude mein Herz.

[@PrinceZuko90]

I love that your videos 1. Teach me about new fish/fishing techniques in every video, and 2. Show the joy and rush of fishing that gets you hooked. I love the channel and I’m so glad you are doing so much better!!!

[@user-ye5wu9fb6h]

I know I’m a little late but it’s great to see you back and doing what you love glad your health is improving and it’s nice to see some fishing from you again

[@halonothing1]

I only just found this channel. You're an absolutely amazing host, and your enthusiasm is contagious. I don't even fish and I couldn't stop watching. There's something very special about being able to get people interested in something they previously had no interest in. And I respect the hell out of wanting to share that. And envy being able to do it for a living. I may have only found your channel today, but I'm glad you beat cancer and are back to living your life to the fullest. I don't know any details about the cancer other than surgery was involved. But I know it's a horrible thing no matter how it goes down.

[@mario.assaad]

Aqaba is awesome! Well done Josh shedding some light on this part of the world.

[@David_Talks.]

I remember being out on the party deep sea fishing boats as a kid watching the older/disabled guys use electric reels. Don’t let haters hate, you just had a surgery. It’s about enjoying the sea and the beautiful life we can catch and eat!

[@davidboyle1902]

New to automated fishing. About as exciting as watching tuna caught in nets.

HUMBOLT SQUIDS ARE MY FAVOURITE AHHHHH I already love this video and im only 40 seconds in I just love squids man

[@gonefishingsydney]

This video is so good! Love your channel!!

[@jeffoff7795]

I'm glad you're back, Josh. I have to admit that I hate the idea of using cephalopods as bait because they're highly intelligent animals. I've used cut squid myself so it's pretty hypocritical but seeing those big beautiful squid kind of brought it home. But hey, it works.

[@alanniederlitz8630]

That was a incredible adventure catching 2 swordfish on 1 day plus the fact one was chewed on by a mako shark

[@phillipmertz5754]

My thinking is, if I can't reel them in from 2000 ft. then I shouldn't be fishing at that depth! Sorry about your health troubles.

[@DeanF]

Awesome adventure bro!

Wow, those are some big squid ! I don't believe they are Homboldt squid though, as they are in the Eastern Pacific. Some really cool fishing.

Hey Josh, it's 2 am here, and it's been about 4 months since I last watched your KZbin videos. I don't know why, but suddenly, I was thinking about you. I just wanted to check in and see how you're doing. I hope you're well and that you've successfully overcome your battle with cancer. It's really great to see that you're doing okay.
