"EliasVFishing uploaded" has to be my favorite notification to get. Keep up the great work!

"you can't go there" haha nice job, intense fight, congrats

Thoroughly enjoyed this video! The everglades is a very special place, again thanks for sharing your techniques in such a beautiful place.

Best video yet! Love the live bait fishing and hearing you out of breath.

Lol I screamed out loud when you lost the first one like it was me fishing

Thanks, man. Lots of fun. Keep it going.

Elias, Show us your Giants! Great Snook! Wow that's a big one. Prayers sent for Meg, Elias. God bless

Thank you! Great content, great action!

Loved it. Great action!

Nice vid Elias, that Snook was definitely a quality fish, I always enjoy your vids...🤙🏼🤙🏼

The adrenaline! I got almost as jacked up as you 😂. Absolutely unbelievable boat control! I don't think I could have landed that fish standing on terra firma. Amazing!! Thanks Elias

That was fun to watch Elias. Congrats on your PB Snook.

Really beautiful fish! Congratulations on the PB Snook.

Nice vid. Great to see you still uploading

That was a helluva snook! Congrats!

Loved that Snook fight. Best you have had in awhile.

That fight with the Snook looked intense. Great catch.

Big snook are SOOO SPECIAL ! Have to be geared up for battle, I can not tell you how many I have lost. Right time, right tackle and know how to land the monsters. Awesome job as usual.

I held my breath as you revived the snook. Kept expecting a gator to jump up for a snack!

Great work Elias

Just awesome snook my man. Great video. Gotta love that live bait. Great video

Might be one of my favorite videos you’ve done yet. The last one with the goliaths on chatter baits was bad ass too

Incredible, Elias!!! Wow...

Heck of a Snook there, Elias. Can't wait till N.C. fishing weather improves.

Congratulations on 100 K

Love the big snook catch!

Amazing fight on that PB Snook. Yeah Man👊

Awesome fish, dude! Bummer losing the others, but that one was well worth the vid!

Great job, nice change of pace

That snook was beautiful! Great Anglin out the gate. My man 💪😎

A PB video!!!🤟💪👊. Good stuff my man!!! What a stud!! He was thick!!

Such a sick snook! Awesome job man. I know you don’t fish for them often, but it’s so cool to watch you land a big one!

Nice Job on Mr. Snooky and 100k! Woot!

Big baits = big fish. Very nice and well played.

Nice PB snook. Congrats 🙌

Congrats on the PB! That snook was a monster

Well worth the effort ... quite a catch.

Snook candy aha. Nice man!

Man what a monster Snook! Almost didn't think you were going to land him! Insane fight 👊 🎣

Nice snook, I remember all those catch & cooks in your earlier videos, used to love them!!

Nice work keeping that snook out of the mangroves!

Mayan cichlid. Nice panfish. Very tasty. You can catch tilapia on tiny grass shrimp.

When you know you have a "PB"-- adrenaline dump!! Awesome landing that in the tight water Elias.

That was so sick🤙

What a s tier fish snook are. Watching you fighting those fish was super entertaining 😂

Nothing better than snook in close quarters IMO. Awesome video man and I know the heartbreak feeling all too well. Tight lines and them gators won't mess with ya.

*Oh Yeah...She Be A Lunker... Hell Yes I enjoyed this Video... My Favorite of all fish to catch... Nice one Elias!* ..gw

Quality fish, quality video

Elias, I have my Pro Angler 14 coming in the next three weeks. And hope to see you on the water around Wrightsville soon. I have to say thanks for your videos. Because I have actually been using them as study guides. Along with a lot of other research of course. It’s so funny to hear the reaction in your voice about gators. But have no problem being in deeper water with sharks. Take care and be safe making your way home.

What a toad ! Good job man !!👍🏻👊🏻

Sick snook fight

Dude... that was an epic catch brother

I wish I could hit the "thumbs up" multiple times.

Dude... when it first hit I thought it was a tarpon. Huge snook! How you prevented it from getting off in the mangroves is beyond me but shows just how good you really are with that drag adjustment. Bravo

Thank you

Not a 40 but a good one.

the suspense watching that line with a big bait on the end. waiting for a monster to start ripping line

Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnows will catch everything in FL just about. I use them for snook, redfish and trout but they will catch just about any predatory fish down here. Also be careful what you use for live bait in the rivers as there are different rules and regulations. For instance you cannot use a game fish for a bait fish down here, so bream or sunfish are off limits though bass and snook feed on them heavily in the fresher water areas. As for using cichlids, great idea and one I never really thought of, but given they are an invasive the more removed the better and if you can catch some nice snook in the process, hey...👍👊

You can use bream and sunfish for bait. Only if they are caught on hook and line with no cast net on board.

Awesome

Great video Elias. Was wondering what your thoughts are on the HMG inshore

Hey I live where you are fishing, tons of tarpon in those canals. My house is on the water just past the boat launch on HWC

Elias V the 🐐

Wow that was a toad backwater snook!!

Have bought two bait sharks for the yaks since subbing.... great investment 👌

Snook and tarpon love eating those Mayan Cichlids.

Oh My God!!!

miss you fishing New York waters

Your going to get addicted to snook fishing now! My biggest was 50 inches..

loved the vid - But was nervous that as you were releasing that trophy snook. a gator could possibly come up and grab it from that darker water underneath. Stay safe

Nice snook

thinking of live baits, the kayak I got the guy installed a live well. I'm in the process of down some cosmetic work to it but it works.

Like a boss!!!🚣🎣🐋👍👊

hay hay... Elias 2 fridays back I was catching Chchlids, Oscars, and Peacock bass. Also large mouth here and there. Had a great time. Woah, look at that Snook. He is a real beauty. So nice... Did you even measure it? I wasn't using them as bait, just catch and release. I was really going for Peacocks. We caught quite a few.

Didn't measure. I'm less inclined to leave fish out of the water for YT and Instagram shots lately. Have 36" marked on the kayak and laid it next to that and it was a bit over so I'll guess around 37"/38"

Nice fish! Just a little advice from a true Floridian, wear closed toed shoes. If something goes south and you need to walk or swim, the flip flops can be life threatening, ie... unsure footing, severe cuts on feet, toes, and hands when you fall. After 65 years of fishing the entire state of Florida, I cantaloupe you from experience, if it hasn’t happen yet it will. Nice video!

Awesome fish dude. Thought it might be a tarpon at first. You'll probably slam them on artificials, I got mine on little 4" Zmans when I was there. It's surprising that there is no stocking program for those fish seeing as they're so highly pursued and the slot is so narrow.

That's a cool live bait bucket. What brand is that?

I went to Everglades national park and at the visitor center there was a pond and marsh and basically all the fish are invaders except the largemouths. Looks like there is enough food for everyone down there
