Fishbites Catch LIMITS

Sit back and enjoy some non stop drum action on artificals. Fishbites totally count as artificals... WARNING: THIS VIDEO CONTAINS LOTS OF SARCASM. Well our friend wanted another fish fry and the conditions were perfect. Fishbites worked great for this type of fishing, in fact, the action was so fast it was hard for us to keep our lines in the water. We were able to catch multiple fish before having to rebait the Fishbites which was a huge time saver and kept us on the fish. We caught our limits, our buddies next to us caught their limits once we told them to start using Fishbites.

Damn that is crazy action. Bought 4 bags of Fishbites after seeing one of your previous videos.

Thank you I really appreciate it and am glad that you enjoy the videos.

[@nathanielvargas3863]

I love using fishbites. I drive over this spot everyday and wish I had time to fish.

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Yeah we started using fishbites over the Fall/Winter and were catching Black Drum and Redfish on them. It definitely made me a believer. Hopefully you get some free time and the Black Drum are still biting at the bridge.

[@ivanlopez7159]

Very nice.!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thanks for watching! We had a great time out there.

[@MADFISHINREELS]

I'm gonna find that spot Bro!! On google maps right now! Lol Good stuff fellas!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Lol it's just Packery Bridge. Everyone in town knows about it.

[@MADFISHINREELS]

Matt's Saltwater Fishing LMAO! Hit me up when y'all cook all that fish. I won't charge to help y'all eat those!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

@@MADFISHINREELS lol fried fish and jalapeno poppers sounds pretty good for dinner. Now you need to do some cyber scouting and see where people catch the slot Drum in the Houston area.

Great video, where were you fishing? It’s not in the description. Just started using Fishbites myself.

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

[@garyferrer2032]

How big are the pieces of fish bites?

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Usually an inch and a half (1.5").

[@TheSjh196]

What state is this ?

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Texas, thanks for watching!

[@cagonzal13]

Is there a deep drop off and is that where those drum school. Oh by the way your channel has potential good content entertaining and educational. Just subbed👍👍👍👍👍

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

The middle of the channel ranges from 6' -10' . Thank you very much I appreciate the kind words and the sub.

@@MattsSaltwaterFishing When i make it to Corpus i like fishing the jetties next to indian point. If you ever come to S.A hit me up

We've had good luck wade fishing that area in the past but haven't been in years.

[@MrTbsfan]

Black drum is my favorite! Where's the fish fry at? Awesome video!!!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Yeah Black Drum taste pretty good. I would rank my favorites like this: Redfish, Flounder, Black Drum then Trout. I'm waiting for my buddy to call me over for the fish fry. 😂

[@pyro360man]

so what kind of drop rigs are you tying? And how do you get the took line so long?

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

The rig is a double dropper loop rig. When tying the dropper loop, just adjust the loop to the desired length before cinching down the knot.

[@wraith696969]

Out there 2 months ago and thought I saw y’all. Were there and some dude started asking me for money... driving a $70 k truck🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Yeah we were there in June/July. Unfortunately there is some people like that around town. You can be at the gas station and someone pulls up in a newer vehicle and they are asking people for cash. Smh

[@wraith696969]

Matt's Saltwater Fishing literally snuck back there 2 days ago for a long weekend and had so much fun. Loooooong walk though.... 🤣 just feeding pins mostly but great casting on that full moon morning.

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

@@wraith696969 yeah you definitely have to bring extra water for the long walk back to the truck. Glad you had a good time out there.

[@leroygutierrez3948]

Man y’all are always catching Where in the heck do y’all put all those fillets!!!!!!! Multiple freezers 😄

[@thepilfside4486]

Love you guys! Brought your net this time haha

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thanks for watching we appreciate it! Yeah after losing a few before we could grab them or get them to the shore I decided to bust out the wade belt and net 😂 we also caught some finger mullet, croaker and pinfish in case they weren't biting on Fishbites. Always gotta have a backup plan

[@griffingeddie8305]

How long are the rod yall used

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

10' long. You don't need a 10' rod to do this, we're just using this tackle to get them in quick so we can cast out again quickly.

[@johnmerino7579]

Nice video

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Thanks for watching.

[@nicolasgarza4823]

What rod is that Cork type grip

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

American Rodsmith 10' 2 piece 4-8 ounces. It's a great rod for the surf if you can find one.

[@nicolasgarza4823]

@@MattsSaltwaterFishing that's a nice rod man hey what size circle hook do yall use I've been using 2/0 circles been thinking it's to little lately with catching crockers all weekend

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

@@nicolasgarza4823 we were using 4/0 Eagle Claw Circle. You could use 3/0 as well and 2/0 is a little small but it shouldn't be a problem for slot drum like this. Generally you match the hook size to the size of bait and species you are targeting.

[@liveaction7564]

Lol secret spot!

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

We had to walk 5 miles up hill both ways to get to it. 😂

@@theroc495 apology accepted. Your original comment could have been worded slightly better imo.

[@RubenakaChupacabra]

The equipment is very much overkill but used for a few reasons. 1) Snags, there are snags along the drop off. In previous videos you can see people getting stuck on these snags while fighting a fish. This gear allowed us to horse the fish to the surface and avoid the snags. 2) Distance, this gear allowed us to easily reach the spots where the fish were more heavily concentrated. We were probably catching 2 to 1 if not 3 to 1 compared to others using lighter tackle that couldn't throw as far. 3) Heavy Current, the bite was triggered by strong current flow. The oversized gear allowed us to easily throw heavier weights that kept our lines in the ideal spot without drifting. Others using lighter gear would have their lines drift and get tangled up with other people's lines.
