2 Days Chasing Tampa Bay's Bridge BEASTS

In this video, I spent 2 days chasing Tampa Bay's famous "Bridge Beasts". Every summer, Tampa Bay, Florida becomes the hot spot for one of the most intense fishing opportunities of the year. Thousands of huge fish call the bridges inside the bay home, eating all the crabs and crustaceans they can find.
This year, I was invited by Dylan from ‪@hogsquadfishing‬ to join him out on his boat for 2 days of targeting these fish. The first day was nothing short of insanity, and the second day we were joined by Viktor from ‪@LandsharkOutdoors‬

That SideScan image of those sharks was amazing.

[@NorthFloridaSaltwaterFishing]

Those "Big Uglys" are a lot of fun. The shark on the side scan was unreal. Tight lines 🎣

[@SeeYaDude]

I look forward to catching them every year!

Hello from Thailand, this is a great fishing trip, I really like fishing.

[@MarcuswithTsunami]

Love to see the Saltx putting in work

[@alonzojackson1603]

Used to love fishing those areas when I was growing up

[@Anthony-te7lo]

I listened and bought that seigler reel and mojo salt rod when you were talking about it years ago. It def is a beast of a rod n reel and light as a feather. Thank ya dude.

[@SeeYaDude]

I love that combo!

[@inshoreproductions4735]

Great Catch! I got one just like it at a bridge in Estero. 40 pound, 40 inch on a Penn 2500 with 20lb flouro, rigged for pompano. Lots of fun

[@SeeYaDude]

a 40lber on a pompano set up would be crazy

[@Joey_Randazzo]

Yo Brent, Bull sharks love drum! Literally their favorite snack next to Tarpon. I’ve been using 30-40 lbers for bait live and dead for almost 20 years. Used to be best kept secret at HF. Used to float them on a full moon and the eats would be epic.

[@jackchn23]

If bait shops don’t have blue crabs, check Asian grocery stores if you are desperate. They usually have live ones, shrimp too!

[@fantomphoenix6170]

Little tip when looking for blue cabs, go to the Asian shops!

[@Kgoutdoor]

I just got a 33” on a 3k set up. So fun.

[@wegottafishdude]

What bridge is this?

[@MosheDayan8732]

How many drum can you keep

[@SeeYaDude]

You can keep one black drum over 24" per person per day. But, you can keep up to five if they're within the slot size of 14-24"

[@davidrisenhoover1693]

[@zmoorern]

[@SeeYaDude]

That would be sick!
