Everyone always says that there is nothing like fishing for redfish in Louisiana, but they never mentioned Bigfoot.

If you haven’t seen this “Sasquatch” in fishing videos before, it’s the guys behind Lateral Line Media that always seem to find some creative way to get the Squatch (aka Jeff) in a few shots.

In this video, they are out fishing near New Orleans with Al Keller of NOLA Guides going after redfish during last year’s “Polar Vortex…”

Some amazing footage of our beloved redfish during a cold front.

Great job guys.

Enjoy.

It’s one thing for the guys that created the “Redfish Strong” performance fishing shirt to claim it is amazing…

But it’s an entirely different thing when an angler from a different state (Louisiana) that we have never met says that the shirt is amazing…

Strong Angler Jacob Cantrelle from Louisiana was one of the first to get his hands on the 9-Spot “Redfish Strong” performance fishing shirt.

Here is the video he sent in showing how he did on a quick trip out in his kayak.

Needless to say, Jacob will be wearing his Redfish Strong shirt on the flats quite a bit this year…

Thanks for sharing Jacob!

Looking Salt Strong brother!

And great job of incorporating the Pa-POW! in there.

Enjoy.

There are redfish videos, and then there are over the top freaking awesome redfish videos…

And this latest masterpiece by our friends over at Catch 1 Films certainly fits in the freaking awesome redfish video category.

In fact, this video is like watching a mini-movie.

Amazing from start to finish!

Heck, even the aerial footage during the credits at the end are worth sticking around for.

If you ever want to land some redfish like this, then look up Southern Fly Expeditions there in Lousiana (they are anglers that helped make this video possible with Catch 1 Films).

The anglers in this Louisiana redfish video are as follows:

Capt. Brandon Keck (owner of Southern Fly Expeditions)
Jeff Rybak
Frankie Marion
Logan Roberts

Great job guys and we look forward to the next video!

Check out this amazing redfish kayak footage that Strong Angler Brandon Barton sent in to us over the weekend.

It made me want to head down to Boca Grande (where I keep my kayak) and hit the backcountry.

Talk about some nice redfish landed from a yak!

One of those redfish looked like he barked at the camera…

Well done Brandon! One heck of a redfish compilation.

And if you are wondering what the cameras were doing around the 45-second mark, they were filming for the Hobie Outdoors Adventure show on NBC sports (The IFA kayak tour championship in Louisiana).

Enjoy.

FACT: When you go fishing with Brittney Novalsky, you catch big fish…

FACT: When Jessica Jae and her motley female fishing crew (Jessica, Kim, and Jacki) hit the water, there is never a dull moment…

So when I saw that these ladies all joined forces for a Louisiana road trip to fish the inshore marshes, I knew it was going to be good.

Check out some of the monster redfish and black drum they caught (a few of them on kid’s rods spooled with braid)!

Some serious beasts caught on this trip!

Well done ladies.

Who else wants to head over to Louisiana this winter for some inshore marsh fishing?

Not only does this Redfish video have some of the most professional and epic redfish footage out there, it also has some of the best fishing lines to date…

“The Colossal Redfish Chase Them (Flys) Like A Fat Kid After The Ice Cream Truck”

“Those big Redfish freaking look like big orange school buses in the water”

I can’t wait for you see this Louisiana winter time redfish video below!

And make sure to stick around for the entire video. About halfway through is when they start getting into the 20lb+ redfish like this one below (including a heartbreaking trophy redfish at the very end).

Good stuff!

It will certainly want to make you head to the marshes of Louisiana this winter. I am already hitting up my brother Luke to do a trip there after watching this.

Who knew that the water was so clear there in the wintertime? Wowzers.

Great job Waterline Media!

Enjoy.

Well, she’s done it again…

Jessica Jae (the female angler that caught the largest redfish on a barbie rod) is back with an all new video!

But this time it was our friend Jessica Jae behind the camera filming her friend Kim while she fights what has to be the largest black drum ever caught on a Barbie rod!

Here is a quick pic of Kim holding the monster black drum she caught on the Barbie rod (video is at the bottom):

jessica jae black drum — Kim and her huge black drum she caught on a barbie rod (Video Below)

This epic catch all happened on a recent girl’s trip to Louisiana, and of course, Jessica had to bring along her trusty Barbie Shakespeare pink rod.

They were fishing with well-known female angler Brittney Novalsky (Florida Sportswoman) of “Fishing Adventures with Brittney Novalsky” who put them on the amazing fish.

Check out Brittney’s adventures and awesome fishing pictures here on her blog, or here on her Facebook page.

Great job gals!

I speak for many of us anglers that would love to catch that black drum on any rod and reel combo!

Enjoy.

Why is this the second largest school of underwater redfish on film and not the first?

Well, because the redfish video we posted called “This Is What 1,000+ Redfish Look Like Underwater” was pretty darn tough to beat.

But we will let you be the judge.

And certainly if you know of any underwater redfish footage that beats either of these clips, let us know as we would love to feature it and give you some mad props.

Anybody have a guess to how many redfish are in this school?

Let us know in the comments.

Great job Louisiana Fishing Blog on the footage!

Our only complaint is that we didn’t want the video to end!

Enjoy.

WARNING: The following footage is not suitable for PETA members.

In all seriousness, our friends over at Stellwagen Media just released another amazing video simply titled, “Predation”.

And in this video below they capture some amazing footage of the predation and forage that occurs every year in our fisheries.

Heck, you might even learn something about why certain bait fish move out offshore as the water cools.

And if you are anything like me, the site of all of this bait and birds has me wanting to hit the water and wet a line today!

Excellent job Stellwagen!
