Being a fresh water fly fisherman most of my life changed about 20 years ago when I discovered salt water . Now I can’t wait to go to the ocean and catch something. The fish are just so powerful they make your arm’s tremble and shake like no other fish. Thanks for sharing
We gave up on marlin and the cap said bottom fishing, my two best pud's went down I pulled out my Winston 5# and proceeded to nail skipjacks for an hour. AWESOME fights on a 9' 5#.
@@HugeFlyFisherman copy…don’t see too many of those in 11. I use a CC in the 9 for winter chinook on the south Oregon coastal rivers. And even that 9 is like a broomstick. Nice for windy days. Appreciate the response
Fly rods are made for casting flies not for fighting fish ... You have no lever and have to hold above cork... And reel with tiny knob... Next time try with tenkara 😂
Dude -- loving the flow ... aka the crusty mullet. Are you trying out for a minor league baseball team or the NHL? Regardless, love all of your content ... keep on keeping on
Ben, after one or two fish it becomes let's abuse the angler. Fly fishing like that is no fun. Been there and done that. A lightweight fly rod catching smaller fish is way more fun, trust me. I will say that all fly anglers should experience catching fish like that at least one time in their life. You didn't even have time for a brew.

You know Ben is excited when he forgets to name his fish.
Or have a beer!
I swear Ben caught more fish on fly than the other anglers epic video completely made my day watching this! Ben keep em coming!
@14:17 " I'm there!" " You're not there!" 😂
Also imagine a great white shark coming up to sip your dry fly.😅
"Are Bonita fish big?" Great video my man love to see you catching fish that actually fight back.
hahaha step brothers, best movie
This video was freaking awesome. I love how stoked you get on every dang fish. Great work 🍻
Great job Ben…that was HUGE !!!
never seen anyone Euro nymphing better than that in salt water 😂
Looks like the fish you were catching wore you out. Awesome day. Thanks for sharing.
YES, That was HUGE! Great video, I really enjoy that offshore fishing.
There are lots of fish out there. You did it well with the FLY..
This looks extreme! What a fun time for sure.
This was a lot of fun to watch. I'm happy for you man.
ben this video is awesome, never laughed so much. wonderful commentary
Lol the salt guys freaking out when he let him go!
Something I don't entirely get but I guess they don't gotta worry about conserving them out there I suppose, lol!
that was sushi dinner for my lady............
this was awesome to watch
🌴🤔Hummm, Controlled Chaos! That was Huge! 👍🏼👊🏼🍺
Love it Ben! I can’t wait for fly fish for tuna! Do anyone know any guide in Naples Florida for next April?
Epic fishing dude!
Easy top 10 hugeFF vid
Love catching Tuna on a fly, more specifically, “One” Tuna on a fly, especially if it’s over 35lbs. They make fishing hurt. 😅
Ben, this is probably the most intense and entertaining video I’ve seen in quite some time. 🤙🤜
Edit: what weight rod/reel/leader setup for those?
11 wt Loomis. No idea on the leader. Probably 9 ft 20 lb.
@@HugeFlyFishermanman, the bend those “little” fish put into an 11 wt. way cool
Awesome video! Would love to see one on roosterfish or Jack crevalle in the future.
You can see a jack crevalle from the past if you look through my videos.
This video breaks the record for thats-what-she-said moments. Especially with groans and screams. 🤙
Sounded like a porno
Nice work putting the heat on em. Did any even get into the backing?
HUGE video. Shout out to the boys at District Angling making it into the description.
great vid, looks like a ton of fun 😅

I was saying, put him on the reel
Dammit lol great job and video
Looks like a great day! What rod were you using?
It's a G Loomis Crosscurrent most likely GLX version.
Gloomis Pro One 11wt................discontinued
@@saltyperspectives Thanks for the correction. That's a good stick.
Dorado are crazy fun fishing
Was that a G-Loomis Cross-Current you were using? 9 or 10 wt?
Yes it is.
11

You need to catch an albie on the fly, those are crazy fighters
“Don’t fall in” 😂
Live Action great video
I love the intensity and the shit talking
Back in July I got to catch mahi on fly out in the middle of nowhere..that was such a different experience.
Surprised you didn’t break a rod grabbing it above the cork 😮
looks so fun! thanks for sharing!
imagine if that shark got the fish and then you would have the shark on the line potentially lol

Oh my....
Did you use barbless hooks? Always want to make it easy to get the hook out after you gaff them.
As an owner of the name Colin, Id like to say not all Colins are hooked on Colombia Whites. Hope I never get a guide like that...

I disagree with most of that, but ok.
still not over you failing me as my mentor and I skunked my first time out but it's cool
Sounds like a skill issue tbh 🤷♂️
there's no fucking way you just said that @@silvercreekflyfishing
