A bad day fishing is better than work, but time with your son is better than anything else!!!

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Agreed! Thanks for watching. I love including him in the adventures. He likes it too.

A little bridge on 206 coming back towards east Palatka has got the biggest bluegill I ever caught also the biggest watermaccasons I ever seen to.

[@FUNvideo-no3uw]

Enjoyed the video

[@colinfauntleroy7800]

I haven’t fished that bridge in probably 10 years, but we would always catch flounder on the north side of the bridge.

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Yes! I'm sure you still can in the spring and summer.

[@brettwarren7626]

Love it! Gotta try Scoops too.

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Yeah man! Made the lack of trout that much sweeter!

[@sergelacroix4074]

Gonna be in St Augustune this april for 1 month, hope to bump into you

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

April will be a fun fishing month! Lots of surf fishing

[@quitefrank123]

Great video Mike- love that you show us around various fishing locations, show your rigging & include Deaner- while doing it all w light-hearted fun expression. Continued Success to All your Ventures. The Jax Contingent.

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Thanks Marc more to come. I can't wait till spring I have a lot of trips planned.

[@Fishin-Girl]

Thanks for the video! That’s a different way to rig, very interesting. Have you ever been to MayDay ice cream? That’s our favorite in St. Augustine. My fav flavor is Cookie Crush 😊 it’s the best!

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

I think I've been to all of them...🤔not sure though ! Cookie crush Sounds delicious.

[@Fishin-Girl]

@@staugustinesandmanfishing if you like cookies and cream, it’s that on steroids. Once they were out of it and I just stood there not sure what else to order 😂 it’s that good. But I always have to get it in a waffle cone…it’s the best way!

[@SteveB-hy2ci]

I'm moving back in the spring I've been away to long

[@WorkForAvocados]

Always wondered about that first spot. If nothing else seems like a great spot to see the sunrise/set. Gotta get a pair of boots soon, great video!

[@HangingAxes]

Bluefish have been feeding under the 206 bridge starting at like 1930. I was throwing topwater, freelining shrimp and mullet.. they would not stop biting, and kept exploding on top on the lights on both sides til 0300. Last night I was there from 2200 to 0300 and got on 8, I wanted to see when they would stop since I'd been there for the past couple days and ovserved when they started. The bite died the same time as just about every other species. As I reeled in my topwater lures into the lights, I saw silhouettes, then saw the exact moment they decided it was worth it to bite. Neat experience, should have filmed it, might start my own channel lol.

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Yeah man! We only caught blues again today using mud minnows and shrimp. Fished from a boat from vilano jetties to 312 bridge stopping at all docks along the way. Blues everywhere

[@HangingAxes]

@st.augustinesandmanfishing1249 I'm only mad they're dinks. Bluefish is delicious idk why everyone trashes it.

[@philipllewellyn8930]

Nice video!

[@EdwardKelly-vi9sg]

I USED TO FISH THE 16 BRIDGE REGULARLY ....CAN YOU STILL FISH UNDER THE BRIDGE OR LAUNCH A KAYAK THERE...THANX

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

It’s doable but kinda sketchy now. Harder to get back there in a truck.

[@EdwardKelly-vi9sg]

@@staugustinesandmanfishing Thanx for your reply

[@mikebond4543]

Tip for Rattlesnake trout: Fish the last two hours of INCOMING…all the way down at the end of the rocks. (You can thank me later lol)

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Yeah! Great tip! Maybe I'll see ya out there one day! Thanks

[@rkfritz1933]

Hey Mike! I am in St. Augustine for a month and I am trying to remember the name of the sandwich shop you said you like....

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Kaisers deli and market. The Bada bing sandwich is my favorite.

[@ChariotLogistics]

Hi Mike this is absolutely a fantastic info, what is the name of the bait shop at at Augustine ?

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

I’m not sure what I said, but I go to; St Augustine paddle sports, Avid Angler, Genungs fish camp, Bait shack, and fishbites trading post

[@rivahlivin]

Ice cream is good but I would rather have trout. Nice knot insert.

[@BryanBurchfield]

Not a skunk, that's all the counts! :) Keep in mind an overhand knot like that will weaken your line strength by about 50%. So your 30lb test becomes 15lb test.

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

Nice to know. Cool tip! 🤩! I bought some chartreuse jig heads so I won't have to attempt that again unless I feel the need to. Good on ya!

[@walterthompson6318]

You’re not wetting your line mr cook

[@staugustinesandmanfishing]

I did wet it, I just cut it out of the video on accident. Chuck Norris doesn't wet his lines they wet themselves.
