[@madhatter2465]

I was waiting for your show to come on!

[@brennakohlhase4194]

For those of us who watch your channel, who are traveling to the gulf this winter…could you consider doing a video on the basics of saltwater fishing from shore, pier and channel fishing, how the rods/reels are different and if there is a rod/reel that can be used in both freshwater and salt?also your suggestions for the basics? What we need for a month of winter fishing? Thanks for considering and blessed Christmas to you and your family!❤ love your channel!

[@timothyshannon7950]

That salad looks delicious

[@bobsacamano3099]

What a day. Always love the pier videos. Let’s see a target flounder video

[@Brock_Landers]

Brant you wanna talk about pier fishing, when I was a teenager my friends and I were always about going to the Fort Desoto Park Piers in Clearwater, FL. They had a half mile and a full mile piers and we would go out there all night. We would catch everything from snapper, to blacktip, to hammerhead, bull shark, to barracuda, to huge bull reds, black drum, Goliath Grouper (Jewfish), cobia, I actually caught a sea crab once, and even a large sea turtle. We even caught a Wahoo out there once. It was an almost hour and a half drive, but we always had fun. We would throw an 8' castnet and catch greenbacks and shrimp.

[@blueaggie64]

Your net man was on point !

[@JackDavenport-e3j]

Cool catch Brant, we get a few up here at Edisto

[@KateGreens-w6e]

[@MorrisMullin]

Brant, grinding out a winter fishing video. I will watch every time, and for however long it plays.

[@TonyDs876MovementJa]

Brandt, a UV lense on ur camera would be awesome . Fish onn..THEY ARE OUT THERE!

[@publicclammer]

Now this one really develops the appetite!

[@billbristow1768]

That big drum screwed that reel up! Lol

[@raycar9550]

Let’s go🔥good work

[@stratos175escape7]

What do you do with all the fish scrap?

[@bqoutdoors2334]

Awesome video brant. I love you catching the Whiting. What size egg weight were you using in circle hook

[@AnglerUpTv]

1/2oz and a #4 muty light circle

[@Budreaux63]

Did you get that twisted line from Beach Bum Outdoors?

[@timallaire1]

I've had success with whiting using a 1/8 oz white jig with a piece of shrimp when they get picky like that. I've seen earthworms work when nothing else will I kid you not.

[@steveop123]

Hey Melanie

[@Brock_Landers]

Also I remember back when I first started fishing in Florida and I was around 11 or 12, and the only place that I had close by to get fishing gear was Walmart. I had an Ugly Stik with a Quantum Snapshot 2500 reel, and maybe 15 lb mono (this was back in 1995 or so). I was buying my fishing gear from my allowance and mowing a lawn here and there. My parents took us down to Key West back in 1995 or so and we stayed at the hotel at 0 Duval St...I went out on the restaurant next to the hotel that had signs that said "no fishing" and I caught these massive jack cravelle and some huge red snapper on that same rig. They obviously kicked me out, but I was fishing off of the boardwalk down there next to all of the charter boats and I caught massive red snapper and a couple of tarpon and one of the captains offered me a job. He gave me a shot of 190 proof rum (didn't tell me what it was) and that's something that I'll never forget. We went to the Hog's Breath Saloon and he gave me a beer and told me to keep a low profile...😂😂😂 I'm 41 now, but it's an experience that I could never forget. Edit: obviously the tarpon that I caught weren't very big. 15 lb mono can only get you so far...😂😂😂

[@captjack5090]

OUTSTANDING

[@Sps1756]

Brandt ..... there really is a difference between folding and stirring. Do you want salad or dip ?

[@burtw.9018]

You had me with you until you dropped those nasty peas in. lol. Merry Christmas Brant.....

[@DarrinParton]

Yeah Brant since your video said December 2025 can you give me all the winning lottery numbers for that year. Ha ha just kidding. Merry Christmas.

[@mikebojtor]

Wow Man did Matthew miss out nice 👍

[@innsanewayne]

Take the spool off, something is blocking the anti reverse gear from engaging. Usually a simple fix. You probably know that already.

[@tylercourtney461]

How is the beach/pier fishing right now Brant? My family is headed down to gulf shores on the 21st and will be down there for a week plus and was going to do some fishing so was checking on what all is biting right now?

[@AnglerUpTv]

That video is from today

[@ElainaSearles-s2h]

You don’t eat the bonitas? Excellent sashimi and cooked.

[@399geekfavorites]

Brant, how do you get the hook out so easy?

[@gsr4drsupcharged]

I hear whispering voices at 19:20

[@Sps1756]

What were you mermering while batting your hook.

[@AnglerUpTv]

🤷‍♂️

[@stratos175escape7]

Perfect day and a mostly empty pier make for a fantastic day.

[@DereckHilton]

And we seen huge black drum also

[@opentheoutdoors]

December 2025 looks much better than I thought it would.

[@generoberts9151]

Brant what are those two dark figures swimming in the background while you are fishing the Whiting?

[@AnglerUpTv]

Manta rays

[@generoberts9151]

@ cool

[@GregF-k7w]

[@AnglerUpTv]

Released it

[@mikecampingforfun5226]

I'll be fishing from the fishing pier in 2 weeks.

[@JustaDadLegacyPW]

I was expecting a croaker

[@man2no4h2o]

It's not 2025!

[@markprotzman8480]

December 2025 huh?! 😂

[@AnglerUpTv]

Oops sorry lol

[@cherylmarshall840]

If fisherman would let the spots grow they can get up to half a lb to 2 lbs no joke I use to run nets

[@jdimob1014]

Half that filet went to waste 🥲

[@chrisjames-mh3ql]

Lets Go

[@brucehancock6115]

You may want to check your opening date. December 2025 is a year into the future. :)

[@tonyhicks9388]

From watching you looks like single drop is a better method

[@howarddenney5331]

Deep fried or tacos

[@RockDoc50]
