@riya_aivideo: Big Hooks Catch BIG Fish!😳 As much as it breaks my back catching these SUV sized Goliath groupers.. it’s amazing getting to play tug of war with a fish that displaces so much water in milliseconds. They truly are a beautiful fish but they bring a lot of problems. What once was a severely overfished species in the 1980’s, Today these groupers numbers are out of control and pose a nuisance to many Fisherman in Florida. Although FWC opened up a season to harvest these Groupers, you can ONLY keep them from 24–36 inches, from March 1 to May 31. People can apply to a lottery system that only rewards 200 tags per year, which if you get selected be prepared to pay up to $500 to keep one fish. In my opinion, more has to be done to regulate these groupers numbers, but I absolutely love catching them, especially the smaller fun sized ones on light tackle. Big thanks to snookside.fishing.charters for taking me out to catch some of these Megas! And to redporcupinecustoms for rebuilding this legendary Goliath Stick! Many people always ask about the line I use to target these fish, it’s berkleyfishing 400lb Big Game Monofilament. Stay tuned for some great long form videos dropping soon from the last Florida adventure fieldandstream #fish #fishing #hook #grouper #florida
