Missing seeing your Mom, give her another invite to get out fishing with ya. My mother-in-law was Japanese, she loved the Bonita. She made asian soup with it. I didn't like it but it was her favorite dish. I am an older gentleman, haven't been fishing in years due to declining health. I really appreciate your videos, reminds me of the good old days back in the 60s out in the gulf offshore out of Cameron Louisiana. Blessings my young friend, best wishes to your and your family 👪. 😊

[@MamaSaltwater]

Thank you for this kind comment I really should get back out there soon. It’s just too HOT for my liking. 😂

[@kayakflyfishingschool]

[@dustmuffin1976]

You and Richard Gene the Fishing Machine should do A fishing video together since you only live A few hours apart. He isthe king of freshwater and you're the king of the Gulf !

[@BamaSaltwater]

Glad you enjoyed it !! Thank you !

[@jamesthompson8133]

Man what a beautiful mangrove! We use to use those kingfish for snapper bait. Don’t know if it’s okay to do that these days. Snapper love those oily fish chunks. Great job Steve! Just love the channel!!

[@manimania01]

Wow! I’m a big fan of your channel and huge respect to you for getting the balloon out of the water 😊 my brother likes fishing at a dock near us and some of the tips you give he uses

[@davidcolley1376]

That mangrove was an absolute unit!

[@YELLOWLEAF205]

Stud Mango,they're fun as hell to catch and they're inshore and offshore as well. Grew up fishing the state pier and then graduated to offshore.Went to school,hunted and fished with John and Mike Gininni as well with Mark Russo from Sam's. That was back when GS was a ghost town the day after shrimp festival, dead as hell until first week of March and the spring breaks started.

[@jansonbillingsly3268]

I love how in a lot of videos you get company, like there's an entire ocean to fish and people are just like," yup I wanna be 30ft from ya."

[@GrayGhostSafaris]

Brings back many memories of fishing in the Gulf! Fun video Bama!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Hey Steve, Here in Maine, we have had about 90% of our yearly rain in one season...Crazy churned up tidal rivers...tied up lots of circle hooks over winter in hopes...Immature Acorns are falling so it means that here the winter snow, sleet will be earlier than expected...enjoy the videos, please send that sunshine north...Cheers from Maine.

[@BigBass-xf5yi]

Congrats on that PB toad of a mangrove. I know they normally don’t get too big, but a have a crazy fascinating with mangroves and mutton. What a whopper.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thank you! I strive to make myself better at it everyday!! Gloves are definitely a must most of the times! I'm glad you enjoy the videos !!

[@totalbsfishing5227]

You should show us how to king fish off the pier like you did as a kid!!!

[@roypeavy3542]

Great fishing video 👍

[@jimwade2608]

I subscribed and like your channel…I retired and moved to Orange beach about 2 years ago. I am learning a lot about fishing in the gulf. One thing I would like to see: for you to say where you are fishing (even if just the public locations). I watched the poached black drum…I think you are fishing at the Perdido Bay bridge (Lillian hwy98) but I’m not sure. Could you say where you are fishing in your videos. Thanks! Jim Wade

[@animalsnatcher]

David I haven’t seen your videos in months but I caught my first shark 🦈

[@ReelGZ]

Awesome job Bama!!! When can I go with you?

[@ivanscottw]

I just love the respect for the fish, the knowledge you share, the obvious joy you communicate ! The use of circle hooks is really great to protect the fish - the odd of having a deep hook is highly reduced with a circle hook (and yes - never jerk when yo get a strike because it'll snatch the hook right out of its mouth - you always try to avoid the fish you're putting back (handling fish with one's hand causes much more damage than one can think) ! Great job and thank you !

[@justinM88]

Great video 👍🏻👍🏻

[@davidwilliams26]

Took grandkids fishing this weekend a 6 and 3 year old talk about a work out., each caught a one ( lake fishing) and then it was time to throw rocks in the water and the three yr old tossed the bait in the water😂 time to go home but had a great time😅😅😅.

[@courtneesdad]

Great video as usual. That’s a huge mangrove. That’s the definition of hand fishing lol. We miss mom. Get her back on video ❤️

[@BamaSaltwater]

Heck yeah it was !! Thank you!! She gets seas sick extremely easy, she'll be fishing more inshore with me!

[@stansmith7118]

Thanks man!!!

It was a beast for sure!!

[@MrBudman99511]

I would be glad for you to share with me when I get to Perdido Key in October 😊 It would be a great surprise for my son in law to have some fresh fish for his 50th birthday.

[@baylen_fanpage2334]

Man your perfect at this you just need a bigger boat like a Grady white and you would be Set keep up the great work Bama!

For sure!! I love my Hybrid Bay Boat. These days, a Paid off boat is much better than a payment boat for me haha!

@@BamaSaltwater yes! A paid off boat is better now these days I 100% agree lol

Everyday!! Thank you!!

[@BPhillips4gg]

Wow, that Mangrove was YUGE!! Just curious, what happened to the T-top? I can't handle Lake Erie without a top, I can't imagine the Gulf without one. Awesome video as always, sir!!

[@BamaSaltwater]

thank you, she was a biggun! And I removed it and it's chilling at the house. I just like the openess, and not getting blown around by the wind on the bay boat!

[@BPhillips4gg]

@@BamaSaltwater I figured openness was a factor. I knew that was the same boat and I wasn't crazy 😂.

[@jejoko]

Nice video brother. Just a tip from someone who used to handline sailfish. Always open hand the line 5:20. NEVER EVER hold a loop of line in your hand or twist it around your hand to pull the fish in. No matter how small the fish. A shark or cuda could dart in, pull that line tight and leave you without a finger or two.

[@BamaSaltwater]

100%% Good habit to be in!!!!

[@rocknrage8663]

Bama Saltwater and Bama Bass need to do a collab!

[@The_fishingfool]

12:50 surface boils like that make me wonder why west coast style surface irons aren’t used more on the east coast.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Just not adopted yet!!! Social media, pictures, and techniques just need to trend and it'll be adopted. Just like SPJ in the Gulf !! Surface Irons are awesome !!!

[@cartersboxerandbulldogbabies]

That’s the biggest mangrove I’ve ever seen you catch I think!!

[@BamaSaltwater]

It's a beast for sure, it beat my own PB of 23" by 1" being a total of 24" long haha!

[@cartersboxerandbulldogbabies]

@@BamaSaltwater heck yea, what a beast. Just imagine there was a 30 incher down there with it!!
