I wanted an easy day of fishing and Mother Nature supported that decision by placing a school of Glass Minnows and Pilchards right at the launch. Then made the current outgoing which set-up a nice close channel right by the bridge. With those two components I knew it was going to be an easy day.

[@duncangriffiths4399]

Thanks for getting your bucket back. Protect the ocean! And don’t waste-love it!

[@CrazyTaxiDasher]

Love the channel.I had a thought while watching this, if you are chumming, all of the bait you are chumming with is sinking at a certain speed. When you have a weighted hook, your bait starts falling and acting much differently than your chum, and your bait can stick out like a sore thumb. This can be a good or bad thing depending on the scenario like if the big fish are deeper and you want to get the bait down to them before the little guys get it.However, if the seem to be hesitant, a quick switch to a smaller thin wire hook to be the ticket so that it doesn't affect the action or sink rate of you bait. I find this especially useful when chumming finicky snapper. Again love the content. Much love.

[@donnastormer9652]

When I use live bait I sacrifice one or two and I smash them up really good and I use their juices as hand lotion before I start fishing that seems to mask my scent and I catch a lot more fish when I remember to do that. It was really fun watching your video thanks I’m in Northwest Florida and fish for reds trout and flounder but we do have the occasional juvenile Tarpon that come up our way and they sure are fun to catch

Wrong net size for those baits lol. Mirco or small tarpon are pretty guaranteed in key largo to Islamorada. Let’s have a one day fishing tournament( live streamed) for 1k or 2k a boat. 1st 🥇 takes the pot. You can pick the species the date and location also 🤷‍♂️. If you turn it down maybe 1 of your viewers wants to take your spot. No I’m not a guide in the keys. You can reach me at bobhewes21 or anthonyhewes21 on intragram. This is 💯.

Long story short, everyone has them on back order with no eta. I think I can get a nut on the bolt on the backside of the intake tube. Is this a good solution? Note, it's the outside bolt that's easy to get to the backside of the intake tube...thanks

One question, but im sure inquiring minds would like to know.. whats the best catches here for people that dont normally like seafood (but can eat non "fishy" tasting fish, like halibut")? personally i surfed for many years, but started to dislike seafood due to swollwing gallons of sea water and the taste just started to blend into everything minus white fish like halibut and shrimp, lobster, cod ect ect...? any reply is awesome, subbed, and liked. i enjoy channels like this as it brings back my love for the ocean, but i really wish i could eat more from the bounty the ocean provides (its delicious in my mind, but the sea water salty taste kills me, but im still trying to figure out why my tastebuds betray me.)....p.s i love fishing, and cooking what you take, same as hunting..but i feel like i am missing out completely on sea foods....
