NICE VIDEO.. I also use a bead. It protects your knot

[@sergiofelix46]

I'm new to the area, your instructions will help a lot.... thank you

[@gumecindocano7605]

Thanks for your advice!!

[@stevedenoncourt]

Nice video, thank you.

Excellent explanation!

Imagine not getting along with this guy at a party...impossible to imagine

I love redfish from texas

[@Goose8219]

Snagged me a 23” red with a North Carolina set up

[@TreetopMike]

Hey good buddy, thanks for doing what you do.

[@PullingThru_at100]

Cool dude

[@tricanokeptalive]

Love your videos and how you always include Texas in all your videos. Because of 1fish2fish i was able to hook up to my first bullred, but i think the hook tore out of his mouth. Anyway, on the fish finder rig, what hook would you recommend? I use a 5000 series reel on a 7f 1oz- 8 oz rod with 30 Lb line. My main place to fish is In the Jetties. When i hooked up to that bullred the other day i was using a high-low rig and didn't even notice him on. this being said my wife hooked him.. Sad day in a man's life.

2/0-4/0 circle hook

[@ym99100]

*I bought these and used them at the river where I get snags often they have done a **enjoyable.fishing** recommend great job of not breaking along with some strong line I purchased as well. They are super durable and easy to use.*

[@coreytowner9726]

What pound test for my main line should I use if my reel holds from 15/335, 20/275, and 30/205 braid? I have a Penn Sargus 4000 5+1 stainless steel bearing system with a Gear ratio 6:2:1?

[@tricanokeptalive]

Hard question just off the size of the fish your targeting. Most recommend 15-25lbs for redfish, braid my favorite is sufix 832 advance line.

[@timogin4377]

Those set ups are great for smaller redfish. what size hook are you using for the 30 -40 l bull reds? Where I fish in Texas I almost never catch a red in the slot . they are over size and I find that the smaller #2 hooks do not work well. I am using a half of a large blue crab for bait. The hooks I am using are not that great either and I need something better.

[@macku9388]

Do you use a circle hook with the popping cork? Does it need a weight if so?

[@howardtaylor267]

WITH THE CAROLINA RIG, ON THE LEADER LINE COULD YOU USE A SMALL FLOAT BOUT HALF WAY BETWEEN THE SWELL AND THE BAIT. THANKS

[@charliecaira7205]

to elevate the bait from the ground?

[@j.delgado4361]

Dead shrimp works too IMO. Thoughts?

[@joshdudeguy2830]

So for a jetty, fishfinder is likely the better bet? Sorry, newbie here!

[@PolarBearXx]

Had trouble I had a surf rod but I couldn't even throw this or in my 7 footer it won't go far

[@jojoanthony9899]

What’s the best rig for reds off the banks if you don’t have a boat?

[@jtoker9758]

Any of these three he just said. It really depends on your area your fishing at too.

[@jamesbraddock893]

Can you use circle hooks?

[@browngaddyoutdoors]

Circle Hooks Are Probably Better

[@beardedbarbeque1530]

Can you explain how you make your popping cork setup? Like what mm beads you use and where you can get them? What oz egg weights are you using?

[@hatch7x]

The popping cork rig with the slider wire is one that you buy at your favorite tackle store already made. There are several versions of them.

[@oniinparadise9620]

I enjoy fishing but the thing i cant stand about fishing is needing to have patience

[@ricardojovel2136]

[@FishingLouisiana2020]

I enjoyed the video. I subscribed so I won't miss future video's. If you get a chance, check me out.

[@mikehawk9397]

Biggest mistake is throwing live bait out and letting it sit. Not going to get the monsters like that.

[@AlphaSlothins]

🤔 what are u working it like a lure? Lol

[@vb4496]

@@AlphaSlothins hell I'll reel in a few feet every now and then but I definitely dont pop and twitch a shrimp 🤣

[@donlukasek7332]

Too much rambling, be more direct.
