Catch More w/Deep Diving Plugs - Florida Sport Fishing TV - LIVE IG Seminar w/Fishing Report

[@williammoyer9063]

Wow, great presentation. I'm just learning the ropes of fishing down in the Sea of Cortez. I've been a lake and stream fisherman all my life. I bought myself a Mako 171 and I'm loving it. You filled in a lot of information I needed. The water down here has almost reached the temp's for the Dorado (Mahi) to show up but till then trolling for big Cabrilla and Grouper on the points is always productive. Side Note: Today we saw a flock of birds diving on bait with fish slashing through the school. as we were gunning it back to shore after a dismal morning fishing in the fog. We both looked at each other and got rods in the water. We both hooked up to 30+ lb Jack Crevalle. Took over 1/2 an hour to get just one fish finally in the boat, the other got off. Turned a nothing morning into a great day of fishing.

[@crustybear]

I just got back from a trip in the Caribbean, and despite never having done any proper offshore trolling, thanks to all of your videos I was prepared. I took your lessons to heart, that fishing is all about being prepared, about controlling the things you can control. I basically came from knowing nothing to knowing how to troll a whole spread, including deep diving lures, with proper crimped connections, Mahi topwater chuggers and jets, and so forth. Basically everything I know, I know thanks to you, and you made this trip a success. Thank you sir, for all the hard work you put into teaching. Please never stop.

Thank you, trying.

[@ponodias3477]

There is a lot of fishing shows in the world , but I only watch a few, this guy is one of the only shows I stop and watch every time he pops up in the feed, I’ve been watching this show since it was on the fishing channel back in the early 2000s, him ,mark sosin ,and norm issacs this guy actually turned me on to using momoi fishing line and flourocarbon leaders which I’ve been using for years and out fishing guys who wouldn’t adapt , ahead of his time straight to the point and no bs this guy is a true fisherman, I wish I could see him do a show out here in Hawaii on the Oahu island

[@Captjames850]

Thanks for the video Capt. always watching and buying products as I get a lot of good value and entertainment from your videos.

[@christianmontesi5375]

Just added outriggers so I’m going to try to mix up a few DTX sizes and positions this weekend!

[@fishduckdog]

Thanks for sharing! Great information!

[@kevinbailey5033]

Awesome info thanks

[@Keysgem]

Great job and very informative as usual Mike, look forward to seeing the new shows in the future, I had my nomads rigged with cable and didn’t do well , I was afraid of loosing the expensive plugs, then switched over to 250 clear leader catching more and only lost one plug.

Hi Mike I’m heading down to marathon in January Never been fishing in January in all the years we have fished in keys. Usually go in June-July. We were thinking of trolling 10knts for Wahoo on reefs edge with deep diving plugs and other lures - maybe some yellow tail on reef and BF on hump trolling and jigs if weather allows? Thanks for all the help.

[@kingslayer8920]

I consider myself a good fisherman and I do it for a living but this guy knows the ins and outs and I love watching his videos they are educational still I learn stuff from them instead of my expertise he explains all different kinds of fishing!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Thank you for the kind words

These are the best. I'm up in NJ and we get a really good king and wahoo bite in the summer and if i actually take the time to specifically target wahoo they are way more prevalent then people realize.

[@newrivernymphs3213]

Commoing from a freshwater guy capt mike gives out some fire info just a recommendation a q/a section would be really cool

[@brianmasterson8172]

One more comment. I have constantly caught 30+ pound Blackfin Tuna up here on the FL Panhandle with both 200s and 220s rigged for Wahoo. It’s become a great bi-catch for when the Wahoo aren’t cooperating. Trolling at 8-10 knots.

I have also seen Nomad videos showing the mono. I'll try this next time out. Have used 4 feet of wire for 30 years.

I'm Interested in using these deep diving lures in fresh water for musky fishing.

[@sportfishingcartagena]

Good evening, what braided line is necessary to correctly use the DTX 220, and go down 50 feet. And how far from the boat do you have to put it to reach this depth? I am going to try these lures in Spain in spring when different pelagics approach our coasts.

[@sportfishingcartagena]

Thank you very much in advance

[@sportfishingcartagena]

0.55-0.60mm of PE braided line would be correct to knot to the 1.20mm fluorocarbon line of the DTX220. I would like to know more or less distances for the Grouper in 10-20-30 feet. and for amberyack!!

[@sportfishingcartagena]

Amberyack 120-150pies

[@sportfishingcartagena]

En españa se pesca diferente pero quiero probar este tipo de currican

[@sportfishingcartagena]

In Spain trolling is done very differently, but I want to try these lures because I already have some to start with. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience, greetings, you are invited to my fishing trip in Spain

[@kentait3875]

I do like your videos and Seminars! Thanks. When did you move down to Marathon?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

[@palmbeachtrollers3343]

Another question is have you tried dragging mullet for wahoo?

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Split tail mullet pulled off planers or trolling leads are excellent wahoo baits.

[@felixjimenez4731]

How much line are you letting out to get the lure down 40ft for grouper fishing?

[@frankrizzo4237]

We smashed some big kings and African pompano on the bolt yesterday Today was rough

[@manuelfuertes5875]

Have you ever tried the happy hoop ? What's your opinion.

[@mornevanderschyff5197]

Hey mate,Morne here from Australia how far behind the boat do you set out your deep divers the 220

[@jimdrechsel3611]

What reel(s) would you recommend for wahoo? I bought a penn Ally 80-130 and the butt diameter is too large for my Shimano Tyrnos 30. Please try to keep it cost effective. I can’t buy a $3,000 reel. Thank you Mike for the help. I plan to troll Nomad lures

[@circusmime]

Got my first wahoo the other day on a pink Xrap magum 15 trolling the humps for tuna. Up here in west central coast we troll the 25 to 30 divers for gags and kings

[@dannyharageonesjr.2024]

Thanks. Would you use a planer with it

[@ricflair2779]

Hey Mike are you using the long or short-butt Rodzillas? Thanks for the seminar. You're the best in the industry

[@hughsmith7850]

Very interesting for sure. One Question.... I took good notes. What speed do you troll for Groupers at? Thanks in advance Sir.

[@FloridaSportFishing]

approx 4 knots. thanks for watching and please join www.FSFTV.com.

[@bunsic1027]

Are you taking that heavy mono leader directly to your braid or is there a top shot in-between your leader and braid?

[@adamjones646]

Hey Mike, may be a dumb question any reason for using braid instead of mono. Thanks and keep up the good work

[@FloridaSportFishing]

Braid is thinner and cuts through the water easier, allowing me to achieve maximum depth penetration. However I do include a 25 ft top shot of 150 lb mono.

How are you connecting the 150lb mono top shot to braid?

[@corazonerocubano]

What’s the model of the Nomad mentioned on min 28? I can’t find it

[@ktmdays]

I got 130 lb mono for a top shot on my penn 80 can I just crimp that to the lure

[@bjschofied1]

Will 30-80LB or 50-100LB rods be okay? Is 60-130LB rods really necessary for the 200/220s? Loved the seminar!

[@FloridaSportFishing]

The 200 & 220 create a ton of drag but 50-100 lb class rods would be perfectly fine. 30 lb class too light. Please join my streaming channel at www.FSFTV.com. Over 300 instructional videos, no KZbin ads, a 24/7 Fishing Helpline, exclusive content and more! www.FSFTV.com - Capt Mike

Been thinking of running a 40' planer off the stern cleat, then double snap swivel/rubber band setup to send a DTX 220 Minnow that also dives to 40'. Theoretically, I would be able to get the lure 80' down - will this work? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

[@corazonerocubano]

What about the rod?

[@1964BILLYO]

Hi Mike, I have a question I'm using 100lb leader to my lure single or double barrel crimps dose it matter, and abrasive sleeves would that cause the jig to swim poorly, your appinoun.

[@1964BILLYO]

thanks will

[@ryanwood335]

How far back are you trolling them for wahoo? The packaging says at least 200’ to get them to their maximum depth but I hear a lot of people pulling them closer.
