EASY Saltwater Fishing For Beginners - Fishing Docks With Shrimp!

This is easy saltwater fishing for beginners and today we are fishing docks with shrimp. I catch a sheepshead, a strange ray with no tail, a crab, and a few other small fish. All of them were caught on frozen shrimp that I bought for a few dollars. All of them were caught on cheap fishing combos that cost less than $40. If a saltwater noob like me can catch saltwater fish, so can you. If you get a chance to fish near some docks, a little bit of shrimp might be all you need to catch some great fish.

“Go back in the water bruh” 😂😂😅

[@emadaskander8234]

Where you were fishing?

[@M1XEDBAG]

My 2 1/2 year old was losing it over the crab dropping off of the deck 😂 she got a good kick out of it. Thanks for the laughter man 👍

[@aaronnelson1099]

I love how you park 20 feet from where you fish I have to walk 2 miles to get in the prime!! 💯💪👍

[@RealisticFishing]

Luckily its right behind the motel 🍺👍

[@penguin12902]

Hah, same. It's a mile walk to my favorite spot out to an old railroad truss. It's the only public access on the lake (other than the swimming beach).

[@donniedean7652]

Nice catches. That Ray was insane. Awesome sheepshead too. Great video. Thank you for taking the time on vacation to bring us great content. Be safe and enjoy your vacation.

[@TheJuggaloFishingPosse]

Sheep's head and tailess Ray. Sounds like a good outing to me. Really awesome catches man

[@RealisticFishing]

Oh man, it was awesome 👍

[@redelfoutdoors9668]

Fish bites in shrimp flavor work great to! They don’t go bad and still catch just about everything. Great video!

[@RealisticFishing]

I tried fish bites, mine were a little hard and dry

[@mr_b22]

Ever wonder where a full time realistic fishing guru goes for vacation? That's right! He goes fishing... and it looks like fun..

[@RealisticFishing]

I squeeze it in when I can 👍

[@Ridg76]

OK,,,,,, I'm sold. My next fishing endeavor will be salt water fishing and yes, my wife is going to kill me... THUMBS UP!

[@RealisticFishing]

Uh oh 😅

[@poot111111]

Damn nice haul from the parking lot, those rays are always up for a good fight! They use them whole as bait for the Goliath grouper FYI

[@jefferybeene6563]

What a day!! Now that was pretty cool..all the different species..sweet!! Now that was fun and realistic!! Can never complain about catching fish!!!

[@RealisticFishing]

I love catching fish! 😀

[@p.w.7051]

Thanks for more no BS fishing. Hate to be one of those "you should" guys, but...if you get one of those micro burners to screw onto a little butane/propane mix tank you can pack it with you on trips like this with a cheap little frying pan and enjoy surprises like that sheeepshead right on the dock. Better fish meals than most restaurants ever provide, as long as you have a little butter, salt and pepper. Thanks again!

[@RealisticFishing]

I have a camp stove, but I am not alone on my vacation so I can;t just do anything on a whim.

[@rossbowman202]

Sheepshead the fish that smiles back. Nice day fish Alex.

[@RealisticFishing]

😀

[@radicalratgaming8981]

[@brianjacket]

Gotta love those cheap green nets. Brought in my first carp with one of those

[@kevinsandells9933]

A good day out in the salt. Hope you are enjoying your vacation.

[@RealisticFishing]

I am! 👍

[@honkeykong85]

I used to raise African and South American cichlids. Those sheepshead always remind me of a “frontosa” cichlid. Keep up the great work,Alex!

[@RealisticFishing]

They might be related 👍

[@MarcPipistrello]

Sheephead are tasty. Gnarly as hell teeth, but so good! Allow me to add that it's SO nice to come here and simply see and hear about simple fishing. A LOT of the other fishing channels are making videos focused on the GS guys and their drama with Favorite Rods and their alleged troubles with 6th Sense blah blah blah. Thank you for keeping it realistic!

[@deaks4570]

Nothing as good as vacation fishing. Looking forward to May when I'll be in the USA again fishing. Great video 👏

[@tomfisher2103]

Looks nice and quite at the pier. A good haul of fish and a quarter. Epf eats those croakers, says that they are really good. Nice work out there!

[@RealisticFishing]

Thanks Tom 👍

[@garydirks8223]

Things look like they are getting better for you. You are not the first fisherman that ray has met. He's an amputee. Nice vid.👍

[@U812GREEN]

Any saltwater fishing without Hardheads is a good one, nice Sheephead. Watch your fingers with the Sheepshead their teeth and jaws are built to crack open crabs,oysters and snails

[@RealisticFishing]

yeah, he didnt get me 👍

[@fatdadwithtats1849]

Sheep crogers and rays what a day. Little ryme to kill some time

[@RealisticFishing]

😅

[@nottoobad6132]

That should be the only kind of rays here are. Tailless! Looked fun as hell to catch though! Stellar vid

[@RealisticFishing]

Wont sting anyone now

[@JasperLeroux]

I've heard some people cut off a ray's barb before releasing it so they don't get barbed...but that's not entirely necessary as long as you're just more careful about handling them. How you handled it with the net seemed to work just fine.

[@sjones7400]

The sheepshead was too cool😎👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@RealisticFishing]

👍👍

[@nashguy207]

That sheep's head looked like it had a few nasty teeth. I have never heard of a tailless ray I'M guessing it was either attacked by another ray when it was young or by a predator It was the first one i have ever seen but I'M no expert on rays or salt water fish either. LOL Thanks for taking the time to watch the great fishing video while your down on the coast. Hope your having some nice weather. Have a great time down there!!!

[@RealisticFishing]

They have round teeth like a human. Freaky!

[@kevintebo3736]

2 Ray's. AWESOME!!!!!!!!! The drumb was nice too.

[@taronrich6839]

Your saltwater vids always add a nice spice to content. You make me jelly dude!

[@josephnywayfarer1345]

The sheepshead and the tailess ray made the day. Lots of mundane fishing sessions end with an unexpected catch. Happy vacation to you.

[@RealisticFishing]

Turned out great!

[@brunoaragon3290]

Too cool Alex! Making a trip to Corpus Christi this March! Hoping to catch a lot of fish!

[@RealisticFishing]

I hope its great!

Your channel is awesome but for whatever reason I like these vacation fishing videos the best! Great looking sheepshead, tight lines!

[@RealisticFishing]

Oh yeah!

[@InTheWoodsToday]

Congrats on the awesome fish you caught! In my opinion this is your best saltwater video yet!

[@FumioFunakoshi]

late in the season on Cape Cod out at Bishops & Clerks we would catch sheepheads. They're like over sized porgy, pretty big size ( 1 1/2 to 3 lbs) and a lot of fun to catch. I never really ate one but they're supposed to be fairly good eating. What's really good is sea robin tails. The tail is the only edible part but when done right they taste similar to crab or shrimp. Most folks throw them away like junk fish but if you get a bunch of them filleting the tails is worth it. By the way great video, thanks.

[@TheNorthFloridaAngler]

Nice Sheepshead Alex!

[@RealisticFishing]

Thanks NFA!

[@SkunkMasterFishing]

Nice day of Vaca fishing! WOW looks like someone cut that Rays tail off

[@blindsquirrel]

Nice sheepshead

That's a nice haul keep the bangers coming brother thank you 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥👊👌

[@mikecollins9569]

I love the pikachu shirt,you always have great content. I've learned a lot from this channel and it has helped my fishing out a lot. One if the best fishing channels on KZbin, right to the point without the weird challenges or trying to be overly hyped

[@deepiper6529]

I love these videos where you are fishing down on the gulf coast/Bon Secour area. My wife and I were in Gulf Shores at Thanksgiving. I caught some whiting and some pinfish off the state park pier down there using using tackle similar to yours there. Thanks for keeping it realistic!

[@RealisticFishing]

Awesome!

[@jaydevenport7927]

That's awesome sheepshead are yummy too bad you couldn't keep it. One of my favorite fish to fish.

That was a good day of fishing there. A couple croakers... The sheepshead was really cool looking... and a ray with no tail

[@peteoutdoors7558]

I can't believe someone gave this a thumbs down. Great video!!

[@RealisticFishing]

They are jelly like shoes 😂

[@tommymckiddy7872]

The ray looked like some type of skate. They have the same little spines on their back and tail. The ones I've caught have had a longer tail, around 4-6 inches, but nothing like a stingray. Perfectly safe to handle.

[@dudemanbro8280]

I'd say someone cut off that ray's tail. Always enjoy your videos. I've been a shore fisherman all my life . Hoping to change that this year. Thanks for sharing your fishing time with all of us.

[@jonmartines2177]

[@RealisticFishing]

👍👍

[@rojoperro310]

I think that ray did have its tail cut off. Ive caught at least 100 of them in the last year and never have i seen any ray without a tail, even when researching the different kinds. Id guess someone who caught it panicked and cut off the whole tail to be sure it didnt get them while they take it off the line. When theyre flipped over the barb can be broken off at the tip which i hear is like cutting our fingernails for them and it grows back soon and it also shouldnt be able to flex towards you when its upside down but it can flip itself back over fast with that powerful tail. Also some people use rays as shark bait so it could have been someone harvesting the tail as a neat piece of bait because of how dense it is

[@nextgenclassiccarsofIL]

What a beautiful sheepshead!!

[@finniantallon4532]

Nice catches bro! I’ve never been saltwater fishing before but this video convinces me to go out and do some!

[@Jared_304]

I wonder if a santee cooper rig would work keeping bait off bottom and crabs cant get it lol

[@RealisticFishing]

it might, but then these fish might not get it either

[@jasonluera5058]

Those croaker make perfect bait live or cut, and so does that crab. If youre near n.e.florida we should get together. I can put you on some salt water fish here in jacksonville.

[@RealisticFishing]

I tried it and caught a crab. I might end up over that way one of these days.
