GIANT Cubera Snapper! Catch Clean Cook (Florida Keys Snapper Fishing)

This is a fish I've wanted to catch my entire life! The Cubera Snapper is the largest snapper species in the world. Every year around the full moon in August and September Giant Cubera snapper spawn offshore on wrecks. This makes it easier to locate these generally solitary and nomadic fish. Cubera Snapper have such large teeth and powerful jaws that they are able to feed on live spiny lobster, which is what we use as bait. Live lobster are the best bait to use when targeting cubera snapper, as this is one of their main staples in their diet! Big Cubera Snapper often get a bad name when it comes to table fare, as they are thought to contain Ciguatera which can cause poisoning. This is more seen in other parts of the Caribbean and the Bahamas and rarely in Florida.

[@maxscmidt3857]

@Carlos Baez yes octopus do, but show me the sardin, Marlin, Salmon or Coalfish, well, when the lobster are plankton, everything eat them, that's normal, but I'm speaking about adult lobste and only a few fish are able to catch and crack them. But my point was that it needs no lobster to get a fish red in the skin or in the case of a salmon or trout the meat. bye

[@taheraokal7431]

There are alot of fishing videos in the tube but yours and and Brook's are different and special for us. You guys rock I enjoy the love ,caring and humbleness for each other, for the family , for fishing guests and for the fish and fishing. It really gives me the urge to come all the way from Kuwait and fish and cook and eat with you on the same table next to your lovely grand mom and the family . Yor are AMAZING. Love to to see all of you together Bluegabe , DMFD, Stanzfam , Joey , Bri , Kelly, moving weights etc. that would be epic and awsome video for humanity.

It takes a special, special person to be a chef. I went to culinary school 17 years ago in ATL. 2 years later, I realized it just wasn’t for me. I still love to cook and love to try new foods. The greatest respect to that man. Stick with it brother, you have what it takes..And if I lived close or if I ever get down there, I will eat at your restaurant. Che Dio ti benedica amico mio

Awesome catch & cook video Viktor! As someone who actually has experienced a bad case of ciguatera from a 20 Lb gag grouper we caught off Haulover inlet back in the early 90's, I stopped eating most big bottom fish long ago. My better half got a severe case of it that lasted several weeks, and won't even touch smaller groupers that I still catch & eat. Good job and when I see you again, remind me to tell you that ciguatera story as there are some details about the disease that I learned from talking to the #1 world renowned expert on ciguatera, Dr Don DeSilva (RIP) from UM's Rosentiel School of Marine Science. Cheers and Great job once again!
