Food Chain Fishing Challenge 2 - Tiny Crabs to Giant Eagle Ray
In this episode, I started fishing with a rake to catch tiny crabs (sand fleas) and used them as bait to catch a giant stingray in the Food Chain Challenge from land! I started this challenge by searching for sand fleas on the beach. In my first several scoops with my rake, I caught at least 20 massive sand fleas. I also managed to find a big crab. My final scoop was nothing short of epic; I must have caught over 60 giant sand fleas! The first step of the Food Chain Challenge was complete! The next step was to catch a fish using the sand fleas as bait. I placed two sand fleas on my BlacktipH surf fishing rig, threw it out and waited for a bite. While I was waiting for a fish to bite, Davis and I noticed considerable explosions in the water about 500 yards south of the fishing rods. I ran down the beach with a lure and threw a cast in the chaos. Instantly, I was hooked up! I managed to catch two jack crevalles; keeping one for bait and releasing the other. Shortly after we got a bite on the surf rod - it was a saltwater catfish, the next step in the food chain! The second step of the Food Chain Challenge was complete! The next step was to catch a monster using the catfish as bait. I placed a strip of catfish on my hook and dropped it down. After a few minutes, a monster Eagle Ray swam up and ate the bait! This Eagle Ray took over with speed! I fought this fish for nearly 20 minutes before finally being able to land it on the beach. The Food Chain Challenge was complete!

Picks up the sand flee puts it down “ he’s running away “ 😂
Marcus _ lol
bryant leonard he used them as bait ? what do u mean he didn’t kill them
Your videos randomly showed up on my recommendations, and I'm just a tech/ game nerd, so idk how . But I am sooo hooked on your channel. No pun intended.
stephen churns same!!
@@adamahmad73 fr I was never into fishing but this is cool stuff. Lol totally changed my view on the subject.
I was wondering why he was on my recommended too😂 but turns out he’s really cool, a nice switch from video games
David Williams i swear both of u guys have the same life as me
Same
I love how this guy catches a 9 pound fish and was so casual when I have trouble catching a 4 pound bass
And he considers both bait
Found your channel as a recommendation.... Absolutely Love it!
I don't even enjoy fishing and I still watch all of your videos. Solid entertainment.
Thank you for the kind words.
You know the best thing about summer?... It is that I get the Blacktiph notifications when I’m not at school!
@@ZedRei 😂lol😂
“It’s like hooking a fighter jet” lmao accurate
I would love if you could get Dwayne Johnson in your boat!!!
AccessAble Angling I don’t know if he has a fishing rod that big
@@mrjjman2010 * u mean a boat
W0pper no he is saying he will break the rods
W0pper woosh woosh
AccessAble Angling ooo
watching him in the water with the ray looked like Steve Irwin waiting to happen. R.I.P
Manta rays don't have a stinger/barb on their tail
@@twentyonechurros it was a sting ray...
@@twentyonechurros he didn't say the ray didn't have a stinger tho, it just looks like what happened to Steve
Arturo Salazar it's an eagle ray stupid
jonah adamson tip Steve
I love how you guys always take the time to make sure that the big guys get let go safely. Thanks for another great video!
Yes! Respecting Nature 🙏🏼
I shot a cat 5 years ago
@@DutchVanDer_Linde You make we wanna cry. That’s(In my opinion) kind of cruel. But even so, I do respect YOUR opinion.
@@bill2908 it wasnt a opinion I shot a cat 5 years ago in the ear which didnt damage it you can shoot a bunny in the ear 1000 times and you wont damage it
@@A1AAdventures I’m sorry but catching animals for fun, especially endangered species like the spotted eagle ray here, is exactly NOT respecting nature
I love how much detail he put in the description. A man who really cares about what he does!! Keep doing what you do man!
Your excited for getting that eagle ray I’m excited when I even get a fish
Yeah i bearly catch anything and i went to the beach like 15 times in the past three months
Jayden Z that is 😢

사랑해요
The excitement Josh has for everything honestly warms my entire heart and soul lol
Love you
I would KILL to go fishing with these guys! I’ve been on several fishing charters from FLA-NC and none compare to the monsters they catch
I really enjoyed watching some beach fishing from you and I'm always impressed with your video quality. I'm a retired photographer and was surprised to see you're using the Sony A6500 and getting those results. Keep up the great videos and thanks!
Hey dude! I just moved down here this past summer. I’m in the Army and down here in Jupiter on recruiting duty. It’d be sick to link up and do some fishing! I’m still learning the whole saltwater game but from what I’ve caught so far I’ve fell in love with the salt! 😁🤙🏼
Literally no one: Not a single soul: Fishing dude that appeared in my recommended: who said stingrays can’t fight back
A sting ray killed Steve Irwin😐
george butler r
good
Wow
@@joshwilliamson9602 Really? Nobody knew this
I felt that when he said you ain’t got no claws anymore 😂
Felt like I was there! Epic stringray fight!
Those rays pulled harder than I thought 😳😂
Josh gets just as hype for sand flies and bigger fish.
YOU are the only person that gets soo excited when you catch fish like I do. I could just SCREAM I get soo happy!
I dont know much bout fishing but watching you do that just made me his that bell! Love your channel! Keep up the good work
Dude, you have inspired me to start fishing properly. These videos are awesome!
Most common food chain known to man: Sand Flea < Catfish < Stingray

I love his excitement when he catches a fish as if it’s his first time 😂
I always get so excited when I catch a fish as well😂
I almost never fish but I can't stop watching your videos!
Awesome video and beautiful ray could only imagine what it was like in person
you get the best fish jumps and hooking clips ever 🎣🔥🔥
This looks like so much fun! I'd love to try this one day
Greatest project ever ! Love it
Absolutely nobody: Josh: “Who said stingrays can’t fight?”
Damn right. Used to spend hours and hours catching the XXL stingies down in the Manukau Harbour in NZ as a kid. They would wear your arse out.
@Anna Liebenberg shits not funny, man died bro
I never said that😂

_Beautiful _*_Fishing_*_ Technique Congratulations Fisherman!_ _Hugs and good fishing!_ 👍🎣🐠🐟
Josh is so nice with the big fish he releases I love it
I love your genuineness.
That sting ray took so long to catch he was so aggressive when trying to catch but so nice and sensitive when caught
Kyle McSweeney me when a guy tries to be my bf
Wow
That's not being "sensitive". That's being exhausted.
bc he probably thought he was gonna die so it was useless.
I’m telling you blacktiph is the best
Man..in d end..what you have got is a beautiful CREATURE..first time m hearing about its name...and...m seeing it for d first time aswell..thankyou guys..fo makin me knw..abt such a beautiful one...u guys r SUPERCOOL...

Gefeliciteerd met je verjaardag
I’m a pro fisherman in the lake ima go shark fishing in Florida this summer I’m so excited my biggest fish is a catfish
Yeah big catfish are fun to catch
Sharks are tough fyi. You may need to follow it if it’s a big one and don’t rush it. I caught a 6ft off the beach before. Took me an hour and 45 minutes to reel that thing in.
my biggest fish like a 6 inch mackerel
I was just pond fishing and caught a 15 lb red snapper
Great video mate🐟👍🤙 Awesome fishing 👍🤙
Holy crap! The amount of line it took was insane. Look at the spool before and after
This is one of the most interesting videos I've ever seen! Very creative! Kudos to you my man! You've never been more deserving of a 👍🏿!
I would love to catch one of them Rays! Love your channel
Yeah Imma just have shoes on whenever I walk on the beach
Erik .M those aren’t shoes lmao
There crooooccccsss
I walked on a beach in Africa and you wanna do that for all that you know you might get attacked by a bunch of crabs

Randy Jr wtf
I love catching stingrays. It's such a good fight
i dont usualy see videos of fishing but damn!!! u got to put a lot of effort to get one of those like the last one ! cool video UP!
I have never seen anything like this! Amazing!
Ray is my PB for size/weight. It was about 120lbs and it felt like I was reeling in a Mack truck. Once again great video. Lots of fun surf fishing.
Idk how much my stingers weighted coz they got barbs an i put them back not kill em only banjo sharks
after seeing that sand flee wobble, i want one as a pet now.
Really enjoying your channel can't wait to get back out on the water
That was cool.. I need to do something like here in Michigan. Maybe nightcrawler to Gobie to Blue Gill/ Perch to Bass to Muskie. Lol. Your videos are awesome. GOD bless you.
the sting ray was so cute when he was holding it
Really Bro you gave us awesome videos Love the way You Fishing
Awesome video!!! First time I have seen your channel. Now I am hooked!!! Thanks!!! Beautiful stringray!!!
No pun intended
"Dont hurt my flea's now, buddy. Dont you dare hurt my flea's. You don't hurt my flea's now, you understand? Now that you don't have claws, you ain't so tough anymore" Oh, Josh... 😂
Everyone: ... Him: WHOEVER SAYS STINGRAYS CANT FIGHT
I LOVE YOUR CONTENT
Sand fleas are the cutest
It relieved me of my stress when you finally let it go
Also, Love these types of videos. Can you make one and add an extra one. Thanks for making awesome content probably the best on youtube.
Not TV drag, real drag! 🤣🤣😂
Funny you scrape crabs like that. Then when you slow motion the big fish, very cool to watch. Gonna try to slow motion the fish too in my fishing trips. Thank you for giving ideas. Like also your tshirt with channel name on it. Nice video to watch man. I learn alot watching your videos, onward to next video.
Awesome eagle ray. Got one (much smaller) hanging around our condo.
6:47 - 6:50, did you see that mud marlin jump though!? That was insane!
Eugene Cho 🤣
That ray is gorgeous 🥰
I love your vids, bud!
O my God. Fantastic video 👌🏻👌🏻
WOW! A majestic sea flap flap!
Catches less than 30 sand fleas: "Like over 100."
NinjaChicken456 its already a fish story 😂
Im really glad you let the ray go i love rays they look so adorable unlike most other fish that look funny or scary
Josh sees a big sand flea. ITS OVER A THOUSAND POUNDS, ITS A MONSTER
I was like... Dude c'mon now u gonna make Nemo get late for school
Game_Slayer_02.... 🤡🐠 clown fish🙋♂️👍
unoriginal
No fish were harmed during the video They were sent into the belly of the friends
And harmed off camera..
@@tanim.3578 actually no. When they are humanly killed, they down feel a thing.
Except the crab
This is so interesting I go fishing with my dad all the time so I like watching this
You are the best KZheadr in the world
I was in folly beach sc and someone caught a 600+ lbs ray after a 13 hour fight. I arrived and he had been fighting for 3 hours already and he landed it right when I was leaving 10 hours later.
Omg I remember that! I live in summerville and I went there and heard about it
ian long that’s in Hilton head isn’t it
@@cooperbrown2180 no folly is Charleston
I want to like this but its at 69 likes
Hilton head does have some nice fish tho
I see u rockin the camo crocs yesssssir
When u comin back to fish out of 14th street boat ramp in Fernandina...I live in yulee and u should take me
Giant Eagle Ray looks great ...
It would be soooooo sick if I would just spot you on the beach and I’d just kick back and watch this in real life!!!!!!
No one: Still no one: Guess who... no one: Fishing guy: who said stingrays can’t fight
u know what, imma go fishing today
I caught a stingray yesterday a few inches larger than the one in the video, no extra line and 1 rod, had to reel it in. I thought I hooked a cargo ship anchor or something until it dumped half the line on my reel. Took me about an hour to beach it, felt nothing yesterday, and this morning I can't even raise my left shoulder it hurts so bad. These things are so badass.
Voice cracking is like an every video thing for you lol looks like fun
When they run a lot in you’re hands they tickle xD I felt them
sick video Josh, makes me wanna go chase some rays myself
Yes
