Not gonna lie, sometimes your videos are a bit dramatic for my taste, but dang man, this one deserves every bit of hype. Nice one for sure! Congrats! Definitely a fish of a lifetime especially in our waters

| First off congrats on an epic catch! Im not trying too be rude I can tell you put a lot of time in your vids but I cant even watch em without fast forwarding through the whole thing till you catch the fish. I know kayak fishing offshore is tough but its not like your going to war or anything.... just my 2cents to get some of the drama out of the video and just catch fish would be a lot more appealing to real fisherman. Sorry if this comes off bad but I can watch all of Glenns videos of the same 20 kingfish that he always catches and can hardly watch yours with a fish of a lifetime. |

| Awesome, that must have been one hell of a fight. That is a memory that will stay at the top of the old mental rolodex. |

| Sorry guy, I'm with the others above. I just fast-forwarded to the fish. Kudos to you at least for not using Slayer or rap for music. |

Incredible! That is so cool. I like the dramatic touches though in the internet world people like to cut to the chase  Keep up the good work!

Well at least you are having fun. Keep doing you, you can't please everyone anyways.

I guess the more sophisticated locals don't need the background, but I like how you established the story as being specific to launching from the Texas beach - showing the dunes, practice launching and building a background of where and what it takes to go BTB. It gives outside viewers more perspective if that was your intent. And, the narration from the dune created atmosphere - good touch instead of doing a voiceover. Lots of different camera angles and nobody is going to complain about those underwater shots. I got a good feel of the long struggle from the video and what I thought was good handling of the fish right down to capturing a picture with the dorsal flared for the perfect trophy magazine cover photo. I'm sure that is going to pop up soon.
Awesome catch, awesome fish! So what is your next level going to be after this?  |

Nice work and way to take advantage of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I frankly don't know how you guys are able to film and fish out there. Its all I can do to land a few trout in the bay off of my yak and just keep it to myself without sticking my hand full of trebles.
