So it was you who caught them heard ppl talking about a guy who caught 2 of them wed i was half way up wish i known you were there! hf

[@weekender38]

Screaming drags are always fun. Great work on light tackle.

[@user-cl3dd3ym7d]

So cool bro WOW big one 😊😊

[@lawrencevalentin3646]

Frenzy Bonita Thonn... Super Great day!!! Thanks for the video Thonn❤

[@Thonny]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@fg146]

Was heading to Veteran's Reef on my boat a couple days ago and managed to find a huge bait ball with monster Bull Sharks plowing through it so I stopped and followed it with my trolling motor and caught some huge Bonito off of it. I was worn out after a few in the box lol. Was using a 3500 series Reel.

[@FishOnChannel]

Great day my friend you are smoking those reels. You got them all didn't let anything for us 😀💪

[@Thonny]

Got lucky 😂

[@swagolny]

What a perfect video brotha! That drag screaming was beautiful.

[@ThienDuyen-ci2df]

Beautiful video.. Thank you my friend cool video

[@fg146]

FYI, I was using pinfish I caught off the flats earlier that day and found that they wouldn't bite on the big pinfish. They bit on the smaller ones every time.

[@Thonny]

Pinfish are on the flats thick!

[@NWFloatTubeAdventures]

nice fish im out of southern cal need to head your way one day 5 day vacation and fish that pier...good job bro

[@PassivePortfolios]

Nice catch of a hard fighting fish. Bonita is good shark and crab trap bait.

[@alexanderren1097]

Litty Tunny (Bonita) are super fun. Especially out of a kayak or small boat

[@tgssurfcaster3197]

By far one of your best videos 🤙🏽 Love catching them football on lite tackle 👍🏽

[@Thonny]

Appreciate it!!

[@omardiaz510]

Now you can say you have been to the southern gulf during the Bonita run😂

[@Mlt..999]

Nice vid..Thony...Back to back...pcfun reels are not bad..ty 💪💪

[@Thonny]

Solid 💪

[@jfy1]

I was there that morning and saw you hook up on the 2nd and 3rd Bonita. Was gonna come say hi but didn’t want to interrupt your fishing. Next time for sure

[@Thonny]

No worries! Come up and say hi next time 👊 hope you crush it out there!

[@user-cl3dd3ym7d]

Good job buddy 😊

[@FromLasVegasU]

A few months ago down here in Cape Coral, FL came across a bait pod. After about a hour my friend and I had landed over 20 Bonita. Man they put up a great fight. I sure felt it the next day. They are great bait and chum for sharks, grouper and snapper.

[@Thonny]

Yeah they’re fun to catch especially from a pier. They will put your gear to the test for sure 💪 idk about eating then though. I’ve heard some people say they’re good eating if you bleed them and some say they’re trash 😅

[@FromLasVegasU]

@@Thonny I have seen a video where they fillet them but there is only one small section that is edible and not blood thick gelatinous meat. It is clearly visible when looking at the fillet.

[@joangeddes380]

Awesome video nice catches 🤗👋🏻👍🏻😍🥰👌🎣🐟🐠

[@Thonny]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it

[@lmiii85]

Can we get something signed or petition to get this spot open at 6 am at least. I wish we could have it opened 24 hrs but i know its a fed park. 7 am is crazy 😂,

[@Yak-life]

Nice Thony! You should have done a catch and cook with the bonita. Nonetheless, epic catch on light tackle.

[@RH-nc8uu]

Got into a school of Bonita long time ago before I knew what they were... Thought they were tuna until guy there learned me. Caught a few dozen on 4 and 6lb test with 15 and 20lb mono leader on Shimano sienna and symetre 1000 and 1500 and a tiny i think it was Shakespeare 500 size. . Much fun times. Didn't bleed them took em home and the meat flavor was so strong couldn't palate...soaked then Boiled some in stew for many hours and still unedible to me.

[@devonbarkett]

great video!

[@Thonny]

Thanks dude!! We need to fish again soon 👊

[@devonbarkett]

@@Thonny yeah man!

[@sai_bfishing4547]

Bro I'm headed down there in a week.. Let's go fishing!

[@lmiii85]

Also great way to show them how to finess a fish. Tired of seeing people's go to set up a broomstick with a boat winch on it. Good job. Call it luck if you wanted, but that's skill.

Welcome aboard 🤝

[@arnoldiaz7958]

Cuando fue grabada esa pesca ?? No creo que en este tiempo queden bonitas todavía 👍👍

[@chriscagle2691]

King of fort D

[@DaveLovesFishing]

Great video, as always. What cast net and size do you use?

[@Thonny]

I like to throw a 6ft half inch mesh for white baits from the pier!

[@davescheer5038]

🌴 well I suppose if that’s the best you can do ! 🤣👍🏼 ( just play’n ) well bro it looked like ya had a great day , ya might have to make ya one of those treble hook grab lines , I made one and just above the hook I put a big snap swivel that you can open and close , open it up put it around the line and close it the grab hook slides down your line to the fish 👍🏼 have you ever tried to smoke any of those Bonita yet ? For fish spread . Gotta bleed them right away.

[@Thonny]

Haven’t tried bonitas yet! But that man with the gaff was such a good dude! Definitely gonna go to st Pete outfitters and get a big ole weighted treble hook and tie a rope to it just to have.

[@lisandrorodriguez3718]

Hey brother, was the fishing recent or many days ago?

[@Thonny]

A few days ago!

[@moniegardner6307]

Thonny is that piscifun new carbon rod. If so how you like it ???

[@Thonny]

No it’s not! But I can’t wait to test out their new carbon rod!!

[@moniegardner6307]

@Thonny for now I only have a carbon x 4000 match with a fenwick elite inshore medium heavy. I'm doing my best to resist buying more gear. As I don't need anything else right now. Not that we ever have enough...

[@socamarvin1]

What kind of Reel are you using.

[@Thonny]

Piscifun NautiX 4000 and Carbon X 2 2000 💪

[@frostizz2072]

had a tarpon spool my 4k while trying to go for macks

[@mrniceguy174]

What’s second rod you showed in the video??

[@Thonny]

Shimano poison adrena

[@EuSoumMiTo]

Hey Thonny do you have any frozen Bonita to give away, or next time you go fishing if you could save one for me I would gladly appreciate. Me and some friends are going to 30hrs fishing at a part boat and we are looking for a Bonita so we can use for bait, I try skyway last weekend but no lucky and we live in Orlando, so is not that easy for us to fish often on that side and we are not finding Bonita anywhere on bait shops around here

[@CarterPhuongSmallwood]

That’s a lot People it makes it hard to fish

[@adamyoung480]

Aloha. You should see some of the piers on the east coast. Nuts.

[@mingng8580]

Were is the location ❤

[@robertsantiago4329]

Great video Bro, but those Or Albacore Not Bonita.

[@adamyoung480]

Aloha. Same fish, different name, world over. We’d call those kawa kawa. Bonita have stripes, at least in Hawaii.

[@saedfajardo8956]

Where is this?

[@mingng8580]

Show me the location please ❤

[@Floridawoodsbanshee]

🤣 😂
