Found Over 10,000 MASSIVE Redfish!!

In this episode of BlacktipH, I go searching for a massive school of redfish in Virginia, and we found a school with over 10,000 fish! We started off the day chumming for cobia in the Chesapeake Bay. After two hours of fishing, we finally got a bite! It was a large cobia, between 40-45lbs. After catching the cobia, we decided to travel into the ocean and search for a giant school of redfish. Austin spotted what appeared to be a large school of redfish. I put the drone in the sky and was in complete shock! There was over 10,000 redfish in this school, by far the largest school of redfish I've ever seen! I threw a huge topwater lure in the school of redfish. It took less than three seconds for a massive redfish to eat the lure! Austin and Steve both threw into the school and got hooked up instantly! We landed the three fish in the net and released them all safely. I broke my personal best record redfish several times! The largest redfish that I caught was well over 50lbs and probably weighed more than the Florida State Record.

It really was

[@Jafromobile]

As a Virginian, IT'S SO NICE TO SEE THE POPULATION OF THESE COMING BACK SO BIG AND STRONG. The slot-fish regulation clearly worked. In 10 years of fishing, I never caught a single red in the slot size. I've caught puppy drum, or monster redfish. All the monster redfish I caught are probably still out there being huge because I put them all back. I put the puppy drum back, too. Too short. I'm starting to think they grow all the way through the slot size in about 10 minutes because I've never once caught a keeper. It's a really good time catching reds, though. Cobia seem to be coming back, too.

[@JamesBArca]

I was thinking the same thing, did they catch any slots? In Texas slot is 21-28". I've caught plenty of slots and one large red. In Texas you can tag 1 per year. I tagged it.

[@brandonlee1168]

Here in nc they all get huge, my uncles probably caught more 35+ pounders than slots in the past few years and I’m not sure why

[@standerdshark5290]

My first ever fish was actually a red fish and I was like 4 but haven’t caught any since and I’m 11 now but I have caught a blacktop baby btw and a bonnet head off the beach

I've been lucky enough to get on some GIANT red drum in my life, 40 plus pounds. My uncle got me my dad and my papa a guided trip when him and my aunt got married. Man what a rush. We each hooked up with 2 a piece. The scales were bigger then 50 cent pieces. Man these are some of the hardest pulling fish there is. We caught em on peeler crabs. Off eastern shore. I've caught about everything you can catch down there but a cobia and sheepshead

you should do a video of how you hook up your fishing rod for different fish and what to use for freshwater and saltwater. I think that it would help a lot of people that are beginners and some people that don't know how to.

[@BDCALLAIS]

The sickest thing I’ve ever seen was off the Louisiana Coast in 1984 was a Florida net boat circling a school every bit as big as this with so many redfish he had to call 3 other boats to help empty the net! I felt like crying! Never forget the battle we had against the commercial net Industry that allowed giant schools of redfish to exist today! Great video!

Great video, it's pretty normal fishing to get get huge cobia and reds mixed here in Virginia. I think we as Virginians tend to forget how special it is because it can be a daily occurrence almost. I have caught so many that I have been throwing holes topwater for years at them. Its crazy how long they will fight without a hook! I taped it once and it's on my page to watch. Something to try. Good work guys.
