man i almost want jeremy to make a seprate YT channel where he just goes around and catches other random fish. it doesnt even have to be like a river monsters kind of show, just a chill fishing show whith the man himself jeremy. id hella watch that!
Me too! He is a fantastic presenter. I'd love as well to learn some angling tips from him. Dude has caught everything under the sun, he probably has some interesting methods to share.
that’s the dude who tried to beat up spongebob
Sorry but no.
DAAAAHHHH! FLATS!!
Why would he want to kick Spngebob’s azz? Just for the halibut?
I live in Southeastern Alaska and it's good to see those big ones put back every once in awhile they can repopulate the area I appreciate that Jeremy
Imagine Jeremy Wade catching the fish and Gordon Ramsay cooking it.
I would watch that, heck I would pay to watch that
Yes or Ramsey catching and Wade cooking!
Catch and release is the only way to fish.

I love how when Jeremy is in the helicopter he looks like he's about take down a dictator.
Metal Gear River.
"They're quite ill mannered"😂😂😂😂
Does he still have the pickles under his tongue?
Different fish, this one is the cousin of the bully.
That was a Bass. This would be a relative of flats the flounder
@@MrOverHeels his name......is......bubblebath.......haaa haaa haaa haaa. lol
Lolol
I used to commercial fish for Halibut. Believe it or not, that is not that big for a Halibut. I think the biggest one ever caught with a pole was right over 400 lbs. I can't imagine that epic battle but, I've seen the pictures. Just working with them to get them cleaned is an epic workout. I miss having fresh Halibut on my dinner table. There is nothing quite like pulling fish out of the ocean, immediately cleaning them, and putting them on to cook. Delicious!
Jeremy Wade has the most relaxing voice
I like how the reel changes from gold to blue about 3 times during the fight.
it does what
That’s fucked up bullshit I smell
I hadn't noticed that while watching. Great catch.
Lol never believe what you see on KZhead.
A good big catch! Nice seeing different big fishes around the globe....
He probably had a better hit on the golden real but it wasn’t as big as the second so they made it seem like that smaller one (bigger hit) was like the bigger fish. Just makes it more exciting for viewers.
Nah he was using one of those fancy color changing reels. It starts off blue, and if the fish is big enough, it'll slowly turn golden.
I was in Alaska fishing off a smaller island by Ketchikan, one of the locals took us out to fish for halibut, and my uncle caught one over 6ft. When we got it back to the docks, my dad and uncle had me lay down next to it(I was 13 at the time). It was bizarre to see a fish that big. I didn't realize that it was rare to see one that big at the time, but now I have that picture to show off:)
That halibut is massive alright!! One could start a fish and chips business on that one fish!!!😲😲😊😊
They can get twice that size son
We caught halibut over 100 lbs in the '60s. It was a regular thing. My uncle in the coast guard claimed to have caught a 150 pounder, but he drank a lot and then ate the evidence!!
Is it true that the bigger they are the less tasty they are - or is that just an urban myth?
@@warrenwills8524 they get 7 times that size...
@@nathanwilliams2152 yea thats right... their flesh isnt as nice and because they live so long to be as big as they get they get too much "waste" from the ocean in the blood and all that... the perfect halibut size to eat is about 10kg-40/50kg ish
I heard he caught this just for the halibut
chris cummings that was gold 👏😂
The memes are strong
I heard the day was a big flounder
wait isn'tn it- ohhhhhh
Noice. Good one.
Jeremy wade ! Living LEGEND..god bless you sr.
It's a circle hook dude it's so you don't gut hook a fish that's why it's round so it rolls back up and catches their lip not their gut we use circle hooks all the time here in the gulf of Mexico Jeremy practices catch and release do you remember the tigerfish episode
Thx u for uploading all your wonderful videos.
Jeremy Wade is so cool.
I can’t believe he went through all that trouble just for other people’s entertainment he should be proud
I love how that reel changes from gold to blue in some of the scenes.
I am so glad that he is single or we wouldn't see his shows. Go Jeremy!
Is he a dad? He may be single NOW.
why tho
It seems that it would be hard to have a solid relationship and travel as much as he does.
100lbs and so powerful, I did a Google and the record is 515lbs on rod and reel but I'm sure bigger still have been trawled up, great video I love a bit of Wade action!
I enjoy your videos and was subscribed but it's been a while and I like your catch and release principles, so thanks for all the work you've done to give us a glimpse of what it's like to hook something impressive.
He has great respect for them. What a creature.
I’m glad he is back in Discovery
I remember seeing a picture of one in a fish shop during the early 70s. It was massive dwarfing the people next to it..
Watching from Kashmir and it's great to see catching monster Halibut. Dealing with such big monsters can be nasty but skilfully done by Jeremy John Wade - The master fisherman of all time 🙂. In one one his interview I watched, he said he keeps a secret bait, I hope he will share that bait with everyone soon 🤞
I've seen fishing trip documentaries from when I was a kid and anglers in New found land and Alaska were catching halibut, on average of about 300 pounds. Your 150-160 lb fish is rather small compared to that, I guess all the big halibut have been caught.
If anyone is curious, the harbor he left out of was Valdez. Great halibut and salmon charters. As well some amazing hiking and sightseeing.
Halibut are no joke. Husband's grandfather/uncles caught a halibut once and while they were hauling it onshore, it's tail got the downrigger weights tangled around it. So this fish is pissed and thrashing about, those weights turned into a 5lb medieval flail. Nearly broke one uncle's leg, nearly smashed a hole in the boat. They managed to stab it in the collar, bash it over the head a few times and then ran like hell out of range just to keep from being bludgeoned to death themselves. No idea how big it was, likely not a noteworthy size but still big enough to kill them. Another one grandfather caught was a record breaking fish for the cove he used to fish at. The halibut was more than 6foot long and weighed at least 220lbs. I've seen the picture, massive beast. He held that record for more than 20 years.
My man Jeremy Wade is a "Man's man" when it comes to professional sports 🐟 fishing!
he survived a plane crash in a rainforest
Wow!! Big catch halibut awesome. Big fish🚣🏻♀️🐋😇🙏
You are a crazy man Jeremy Wade! Bringing that fish on the boat just to get a look and then release it. People have died bringing those fish onto the boat while they're still alive.
that is quite impressive, here in Denmark smoked halibut is as much of a delicacy as smoked salmon
Brave man, Bass lipping a 100 LB Halibut
So cool I got to meet him, he came to my home town with the plane
E um programa bem diferente mesmo e uma Surpresas atrás da outra muito bom Esselente
Gordon Ramsay would faint if this was thrown in his cutting board
RAW!
He's seen plenty
My IQ might have dropped from reading this idiotic rubbish.
I fillet halibut piece of cake
Fish and chips
His first attempt was on the Western side of the Aleutian Chain at a village that is so small and semi remote. They fish with aluminum skiffs. There is no harbor there and therefore no boats that were able to go out in the weather conditions that you saw in the video. I have flown out to this village and it is a beautiful place. However like he mentioned that when the weather gets bad it can stay this way for awhile. Whenever I flew out to the Aleutian Chain I always packed enough for up to a month, minimum. Born and raised out there on the Bering Sea in another village roughly 260 miles North of the Aleutian Chain.
Dean Merculief not many people can survive Adak lol, not for the weak by any means
Wow that’s a magic reel. Changing color 😂
Hahaha two different color reels in the same fight? I caught one that was 120lbs last time I was up in Alaska. Nice fish though.
Yeah it's funny, just a few days ago I was reading his newest book and he was talking about this. If he caught multiple fish they will show videos of him fighting the fish from both and then simply display the larger fish. He said it was one of the tv camera tricks he is willing to admit
SRB Fishing “tricks” lol he used two different color reels 🤣 but yeah I get it
First one was gold, then blue, then gold again. 😂 😂 😂 😂
I used to live up there they get fucking huge
nico halili Yep, fights it on a gold PENN International 30 VSX then a blue Avet EX 30 then back to the international again, lol.
Them: Why you fishing in Alaska? Me: For the Halibut.
And here is how to fillet and cook a delicious and gorgeous halibut... -Gordon Ramsay
For reals Jeremy and Gordon should make a catch and cook
Why do people need to constantly reference Gordon Ramsay in the River Monsters comments?
Mike Spearwood because Jeremy Wade is the Gordon Ramsay of fishing
Gordon have an episode on filleting a halibut.. into 16 portions plus the cheeks..
The whole town turned out to wave them off! I joke, but what I would give to live there!
I'm from the Aleutian Islands. That's just what us Aleuts do. We'll all come welcome ya but then all go back to our homes and drink our problems away. Or smoke weed! The Aleutian Islands may be some of the most beautiful places on Earth but holy fuck I am glad I don't live there anymore.
@@Ari-oz6cb fuck ancorage in fact fuck any city
Anchorage is a shity place to live
*Jeremy shoves his hand into the fish's mouth* AGHH he's biting me!
How many fish did he catch.reel changes colors from gold to blue.
I love this channel...👍👍👍
I'd like to know if these taste just like the flounders we catch here in south tx.
What a catch!!!!!
Nice Gruden Deck Boots Wade! I have the same pair but prefer my xtratufs.
Yeah it happens sometimes you get stuck for a day or two on an island depending on the weather
It makes me happy to see one of these big halibuts go back in every so often :)
This Jeremy Wade is just the best!
You gotta appreciate all these camera angles and shots and Jeremy Wade is just the best.
That's small! My Dad was working salmon canneries before Alaska was a state,and we have sepia colored photos of halibut so large that they were hung from timbers and would dwarf a man. Crabs so big that he could sit on them. Photos of that too!
You just let go on some damn good food right there my friend.
Que lindos que son tus videos jeremy estan copado 😄
Watching this is making me grin like a jack ass eatin' thistles ! Thanks !
He caught a halibut but the day was a big flounder
Next time you guys edit a fish battle, make sure your reels are the same color....transition from Gold International Penn to Blue Avet for the same fight footage. C'mon Jeremy?
Hes not the cameraman nor the editor
@Hdung "Thank you Mr. Cowboy, hit it again!" ~ H. Gruber
My uncle was in USCG stationed near Ketchikan, AK in the'60s. My grandfather took me there in '68. We fished almost every day for 2 weeks. Fish this big were a pretty regular catch. My uncle had to shoot them before we brought 'em aboard in his 24 ft boat. We also had king crab every night at dinner! My granddad bought 2 large suitcases to bring over 100lbs of frozen fillets home.
5:15 Yellow Reel switched to Blue Reel. First one broke off?
This type of catch literally feels like your bedroom door bit your bait and is flopping towards the bottom. And thats a small fish.
That's a baby for Alaska. But a descent size for off the Coast of Washington. Where fishermen in kayaks pull up 40 to 100 pounders.
I live in Alaska and this dialogue of Aluetian chain vs pws makes me lol
Jeremy Wade actually just called in a chopper lol
This one looks bigger than the "120 pounder" from Season seven XD. Good fish.
What episode is this from
@@Ror0009 "Cold Water Mystery"
No it doesn't other one he caught was much bigger than this one hek that one could have been more than 120 pounds possibly 130
Amazing creature 👍
Whoa I just realized I also went fishing in that same place and caught a huge halibut. That’s awesome
Lotsa nice big filets just swam off. Deep fried and breaded swimming in the pan is so good.
Definitely some TV magic going on here. His reel changes like 3 times during the fight which is impossible unless he used footage of him reeling in a different fish to fill in some time but something weird is going on 😂.
Cool. I enjoyed that. Nice releasing that fish.
I love how he really wants to release the fish after catching
Did anyone else notice that while the halibut was on the line the reel changed from gold to blue? And the blue one was way smaller than the gold one.
What a nice fish!
I caught a 312lb halibut when I was in Alaska. Nice fish jeremy!
Wade is the chuck norris of fishing
You Damn right~~
2:00 that native seemed way more content and happy living on a remote Alaskan island than most people i know
Looks nice and open. Hard to live there with all the work you must do to live there but it seems very nice if you like open wilderness
I love halibut fish
For those of you unaware, he caught a big one for sure but the ones in the local paper get 4 times larger
Our biggest was 210lbs. Out of Homer. This one looks to be in the 90's. Lot of work landing these.
They used to be massive but commercial fishing has devastated local spots... gotta go waaaay out for the monsters now. Best are between 20 and 40 pounds, good eaters
River monsters are you awesome video
Monster catch
Anybody else think of Kobe when Jeremy started talking about flying in bad conditions
Where can we get full episodes of this?
dont ever stick your hand into the mouth of a halibut lol
I can’t believe he went through all that trouble just for other people’s entertainment he should be proud
And his passion, aaaand money...
Lots and lots of cash...
It was so hard to watch that other dude slowly move to grab the fish like dude Jeremy is literally yelling it hurts sm 😂
That's why you don't stick your hand in their mouth....hello?
Вы классный,джереми.берегите себя
How does the reel change colors from gold to blue and back 🤔
Slam bang fishing lodge west coast of Vancouver Island floating paradise we specialize in great fishing food and good times
That is a kid halibut, size wise, approaching teenage size, relative to us. My dad and I were avid divers, he, much more so than I. He opened, owned and along side mom, my uncle Robert and aunt Shirley, operated the Aquarius Dive Shop on Del Monte blvd in Monterey, Ca, back in the early 70's. That said, He was on a grid search for a ship, or, at least, a very big boat wreck in Monterey Bay, which he found the huge anchor ⚓, that, to my knowledge, is still in front of the Aquarius Dive Shop. But he also heard a terribly loud thumping just a few feet from him, but because visibility was only two feet, he saw nothing. Nothing, that is, except the 7 ft long, 4 ft wide foot print left behind by a granddaddy halibut! He had pictures of it. He laid down in it and it surpassed his 6 ft, head to toe length. He also had a Polaroid photo taken in Alaska of a similar sized halibut which was 964?... 960some lbs hanging in the shop for years!... Who knows what's down there. There could be some twice that size! I hear they harpoon them like whales. Or at least they used to. Not that I like that sort of thing! I don't! But if there's monster fish down there, I'm glad they are not all gone!
Flats the flounder is gonna “kick you butt”
Wow! That thing is so huge and weird!
Is this a recent video? Is Jeremy Wade returning to Tv again? He has very interesting programs.
His new series is Dark Waters. It started in 2019.
Sue'82 Metal Maniac Aok thanks 🙏 it’s on tv?
@@elguapo9702 Yes, On Animal Planet. You're welcome.
Sue'82 Metal Maniac Aok! Thanks 🙏
Jeremy Wade has a sick ‘gasm reeling in feesh
Did anyone notice the lack of trees & cover on the first island.
permafrost doesn't allow tress to grow besides the seasonal flowers and berry shrubs.
How many feet deep is the spot he was fishing in?
I’m thanking him for releasing the halibut, that colossal one will be beneficial for the population.
100lbs is not colossal for a halibut. Not by any means. Do some googling sir.
Gavigg75 show your proof
Myself I’d like to see him do some crappie fishin.
