Fishing for Giant Amberjacks and Tuna on Oil Rigs

In this video, I fly to Louisiana to go fishing for amberjack and tuna on oil rigs with my good friend Captain Blake from Tripletail Charters. Blake and I drove 60 miles to an offshore oil rig and starred vertical jigging dropped for tuna. We fished around the drilling ship, trying different spots. The first fish that we caught was a barracuda. After the barracuda, I managed to catch four Blackfin tunas on the jig. The tuna fishing got slow, so we decided to travel to a different oil rig and try fishing for amberjacks. The first amberjack was an absolute monster!! This fish pulled drag so fast and broke us off in the wreck. After losing that monster, we continued fishing and I managed to catch the biggest amberjack of my life (55-60lbs)! Louisiana is a fun place to catch big fish, and I will be back soon!

Just got out of the hospital for a spinal fusion. You were the first video I watched when I just got back home! I'll be recovering for a long time, so I hope to vicariously live through you for a bit. You always have great content!

[Gio-nleg]

If I could give one tip— you easily have some of the best fishing content in the world not just on youtube. But you lack that many of the viewers would be interested in just a brief 30 seconds going over what your setup is...line, leader, hooks ect. Keep up the great work!

[jonathanwellman]

I’m pretty sure every charter captain hates this dude. This dude straight up roasting him every fish😂😂

[simontorrisi]

love how there are youtubers that don't need to clickbait plus there is always time for a blacktiph to watch

[ClutchEastwood]

For all us Florida guys who live far away now, in another state and miss the fishing 🎣... Thanks for the videos!

[Seanlin]

You know you have good content when you don't even need to use click bait titles. Keep it up Josh!

[donnievonwaterloo]

Wow. Never new Louisiana had such great fishing

[michaelcelotto]

[tommyk]

He should get a polarized lens so we can see what they are seeing through their sunglasses
(So we see the fish and not the reflection off the water)

[ReelJedi]

"Here put your cushion on, dont want you to get hurt" 😂😂

[rontrunkwalter]
