[@prafullarwade]

This is 'The Best' video for snapper setup in action with basics of setting up the rig to final catch with the same setup... Thanks man

[@teh_major4106]

Matt is a dead set legend. His bait rigging tips helped me land my PB land based pink Snapper @ 72cm 2019 WA metro. Yea he went back swimming too.

[@nikosm193]

Man I’ve watched this half a dozen times over the years and it keeps getting better 🤙

[@derekpatey4774]

One of the best videos I have watched for a long time, awesome!

[@anglerrazzakraju4054]

[@Ash-bs3fk]

The man bro always have been! grew up watching you now 33 and still love watching you, put kiwi's on the map keep up the great work bro!!!! Western Aus

[@mickdee6590]

Cheers! One of the best Snapper fights ever filmed! Can't believe that I'm seeing this now for the FIRST time. Props to you -I could feel that buzz right with you. Nothing like that feeling of bringing a monster fish to the boat on less than desired size tackle. @0 Lb mono baby. Nicely done mate!

[@beastmaroc7585]

from a uni knot to a big fish step by step :) enjoyed watching you guys ... regards from Morocco :)

[@ldagain]

Tying the bottom hook on first, then tying the snell, allows super accurate spacing. And if you want to significantly increase the strength of a Uni knot - pass the line through the eye of the hook twice before tying the knot and dont forget the spit before tightening

[@ronc6468]

Fantastic, i came for the tips on the bait rigging and stayed for that incredible fight. You show real respect for the fish... a real pro!

[@ReviewsBuster57]

Hello Sir! I have been looking for a very Instructional Step by step rigging for fish,, Then I Came across your video and was curious about the "stray lining" title as I have not heard of that name here in Florida USA. and I can say you are a very well instructor in the subject and Well presented instructional video!! I would like to thank you for your time and for the well inform class and please make more videos about fishing and the equipment too, so please have a good day and take care,, Sincerely Max.

[@binamungur3730]

Thnk u a lot sir. Realy an amazing video. Ive learn a lot from it. Very good explanation.

[@JimMFishing]

Well done! Came across your video and was curious about the "straylining" title as I have not heard of that name here in the USA. Well presented instructional video, and wow what a snapper. You have my respect letting her go. We call that CPR here - Catch, Photo, Release.

[@crims1er327]

Brilliant. If you're recreationally fishing to catch over here in New Zealand, it's customary for most to let the first fish go to Tangaroa (the God of the Sea and progenitor of Fish; since maori creation traditions). Then go for sizable catches, not too small or too large for most fish to help keep local fisheries sustainable. It's well worth a trip here just to catch fish and collect shellfish, our seafood is some of the best in the world!

[@miltonscornertobylove5068]

Man where have you been all this years, thanx for showing everyone how to rig bait!

[@martintopp1399]

Hey Matt. HI from Christchurch. I think you should do some more teaching sessions! You seem to catch big fish when doing them. Remember the jigging session with a big Kingie or the PR knot and instant Trevally? I certainly appreciate your teaching sessions very much. I rewatch and rewatch them! Thanks for the great content!

[@dwhatsfishing]

this is my favorite video by you matt by far so onto it hissing bro ha ha Ive literally watched this video atleast ten times.

[@flasktalimasa5586]

That was awesome Matt, awesome!!! Got me pumped just watching that I’m going to sleep now and dream of catching big stonka’s like that good manners too you said please🤣🤣🤣it always pays to have good manners.

[@DarronSmithBahamianMillionaire]

Seeing is believing and you taught a great lesson and showed the results! Awesome video!

[@yakyakker]

Looks great. Re the snell, I find it a bit easier to tie the end hook first then the other hook as it helps to get the required distance correct. Of course that means the leader must be tied to a swivel or afterwards to the braid or mono main line afterwards as the long end needs to be free to pull through.

[@isquaredjb]

Agreed. Great video though :)

[@jesuschrist9597]

i leave the top hook free and just tie the bottom one so you can chop and change between the size of baits you use

[@Paul-qs3nu]

Wonderful to see you release him legend

[@greatwhitesfishingadventur2273]

What a SNAPPER !!!!!! Could not believe that, you just showed us how to rig, cast out, and BAM !!!!! Well Done (as you guys say) BRO !!!! Cheers "Down Under Mike"

[@officialWWM]

[@TJrchobby]

You deserve to fight the big fish and always awesome to see them go back. Great sustainability only take what you need and have fun fighting the beast.

[@oldmanpearson]

Love watching theses to pick up tips. Any chance of taking someone out there MATT?? I have underlaying health issues and miss my fishing as I haven't been out for over 6 months due to cancer treatments. I miss my fishing

Problably this is best fishing video I have ever seen. Thank you

[@marvinywong]

That’s so exciting!!! Learning and hook up! What timing.

[@zaferaktan7383]

[@joey243win]

Thus is awesome love this channel!!

[@nztopcatch_776]

Great video from start to finish

[@RMarineJonesRivieraQueensland]

Very clear and informative. Thank you.

[@666percentfishing]

Add a small bead above the lumo tube abd jam a toothpick in it and snap it off either side. This bead can be jammed down to stop the lumo tube sliding up keeping your bait positioned how you want it for longer

[@aconinja8668]

Excellent video! Showing us from start to finish and every aspect. Keep it up with those videos! A bit late to the party haha.

[@tristankelly1471]

Great fight and an awesome release

Freakin mean! I’ve been in the US the last 8 years and straylining for snapper is one of the things I really miss.

[@andrewsnowden309]

Good stuff bro. I like your style.

[@ne1273]

Absolutely outstanding Having a bait lesson leading to catching a whopper snapper, Can’t plan that,, 👌

[@officialWWM]

[@joshuahorwitz6458]

What a fantastic video. Informative and entertaining. How many wraps do you use on your uni knots? How’d you hurt your finger? I’ve given myself many a cut rushing to get a bait in the water haha

[@richardkeepinitreelfishing8849]

Great video with great tips

[@lukmanaqordiabatikkita6547]

Thanks, I'll try

[@kayneF1251]

You sir are a good man letting that beast of a snapper go, cause dam the taste good.

[@UltimateFishingTV]

The smaller fatter ones taste better, these big ones aren't as tasty and are the best breeders.

[@Shpikey76]

Awesome bro! I was pulling that fish in with ya lol.

[@jessenurse9194]

Good on ya putting him back

[@flowerfarmerscott]

Great information on rigging dead baits. We don't take that kind of care here (Texas Gulf of Mexico) but I'll be it makes a difference.

[@stevendimakos9211]

Good video re rig set up ! Also I could feel your adrenaline during the catch 👍

[@nanaluke]

Troy Kingi just casually on a boat hahaha low key as

[@Shabaruzaman]

Thanks for the information. I learn a lot here.

[@alfatihanglerlybaz9683]

Thanks for the information bro 😎

[@Hamiltime]

[@smithysfishing]

Nice segment Mat!

[@BDOG907]

Is that Troy Kingi dropping that 20lb snapper?

[@fakaatuitaumalolo646]

Awesome good on you bro for sharing what you know so we could learn frm it cheers;

[@mikerondael5796]

[@UltimateFishingTV]

We use a rod around 7ft, and mono between 20-30lb. Heres a spin set review www.ultimatefishing.tv/home/video/484/baitrunner-8000-oc-combo-review and here is an overhead review www.ultimatefishing.tv/home/video/465/snapper-combo-review. Hope that helps.

[@TuanDanBien]

[@mavidunya3535]

Tebrik ederim. Basarilar.

[@abipom4202]

Pls bro can u tell me we’re is tis spot behind u pls Tnks Pompeii

[@NoSleepTilGitmo]

From one snapper head to another, good job bro from Tampa, FL USA

[@domhideo832]

what's the brand of flourocarbon are you using for leader ?

[@UltimateFishingTV]

Shimano Ocea Fluro Carbon

[@patrickmounier3332]

Another great video ! I wanted to ask, when deep dropping for queen snapper would you recommend using some large baits as you are using such a whole ballyhoo or a large slab of fish ? I use smaller pieces of squid, it works but probably could work even better ? Thanks Mate !

[@13triplem20]

R u serious?

[@franko3006]

Check out fluorocarbon vs mono for leader. Mono is better for abrasion resistance and knot strength. Fluorocarbon is a gimmick

[@mrjosephdebono6910]

NICE VIDEO. NICE TECHNIQUES. VERY INTERESTING.

[@cintasitorus3557]

Trims very good

[@alNange]

Bro you’re a dead set legend

[@pa1264]

[@Graphics21]

Amazing catch 👍👍👍

[@falseprofit4u]

Nice fish looks like a sweetlip... our horse snapper here in OZ develop a knob on top of their heads .....we call those knobbys

[@oneipete]

So do most of ours,even a few much smaller snapper have bump heads.

[@AndrewBWalsh]

Please can I work with/for you?

[@Angkol]

[@cedomirjaksic9518]

Great video .......bravo

[@riclc4874]

[@midhlajlatheef]

Good explanation

[@FLYFISHO]

Do ya uni knot first then the snell easier to set the hook distance when tying

[@adamhatton7579]

FLYFISHO I love it when people give Matt Watson advice.
