Say hi to Mom

[@sensumcommunem]

I have never fished in my life, and yet there is something wonderfully cathartic about watching Stephen and his Bama Saltwater videos. 👏👏👏

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks for the kind words !!

[@maxpinson5002]

You should go fish the GOM at least once. Nothing else like it. You might catch a little half pound something, or a jaws that'll strip all your line down to the spool and bend your rod until it cries like a little baby

[@silastaylor1862]

You gotta try it

[@CS-1984]

He (and his videos) are brilliant ...... he's so respectful to the fish and the environment....... and to us ! (his viewers). Strange days for sure and the Good Lord up above's DEFINITELY watching......and waiting( (and Steven knows that BIG time i reckon !). PEACE.

[@markterrell1353]

@@CS-1984 that's for certain

[@goodcitizen64]

I honestly truly enjoy going along with your fishing adventures! I'm a disabled veteran and haven't been fishing in.years. Thus, I'm fishing vicariously through your videos!!

[@peterparsons7141]

Thanks for taking a minute to identify the species, with the name and local names. Many fishing vids use the local slang names of something, and that’s fine for locals who know the names. People watching these vids might have no idea what a local name for some of these species, and whether of not edible, and sizes, weights, seasons. It’s really surprising that people making fishing videos often don’t take the five seconds to name the species, and location. Often when I travel I want to fish to see what types of fish are present, so this vid was a great tutorial for your area. If I’m ever near that location I can’t think of a better way to spend a day, and I’m sure everybody travelling with me would join in an have a memorable day. Good video!

[@jconodenkirk4820]

The other day I heard on your video a weather report for Mobile Alabama! I served on the USS Mobile Alabama LKA115 as a Marine in Operation Desert Shield/Storm!! Keep up the great fishing!!! Tell your Mom hi!!!

[@user-dj4pq1sh6o]

Writing from Santa Marta, Colombia. I fish a lot at night. Around 3-4 times per week. And those grunts or pig fish that you caught is actually the type of fish that I mostly catch. Down here we call them "roncos" and they are pretty edible. Your definition of them is quite accurate. They are very similar to a saltwarer bluegill.

[@riverratfishing]

Your videos are awesome. I don't care how your fishing. It's just fun to watch, and very informative.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Appreciate ya ! It's always a good time being able to get out whether they're big or small

[@hunteroutdoors7830]

Your my favorite KZbinr

[@justinM88]

We all need to get with J&M TACKLE. They need to sponsor u.

[@saneadam3512]

That was a ton of fun. I'm actually watching this fir second time in a row. Great variety of really beautiful fish. I am getting some fishbites next time I'm in Florida on vacation to try my luck.

[@gulp_man1026]

Fish bites work I've used them at the beach and have caught pompano, black drum, whiting, black drum, and even a stingray. Offshore I have caught snappers and a small a small scamp grouper.

[@briansimpson1807]

Absolutely love the new flooring on the boat looks really good

[@BamaSaltwater]

It does! It feels great and really easy to clean.

[@briansimpson1807]

@@BamaSaltwater love all your videos I’ve watched them all I’m all the way in Utah but hope one day to do some saltwater fishing.

[@dwightwren1464]

I have followed your channel since you started it and I'm glad you have stayed true to what you started, just good fishing vids with no gimmicks. Keep up the good work! If and when you decide to start guiding, sign me up! I would love to fish with you!

This man is grindinnnnn

[@raybates3119]

I have been very impressed with the Fish Bites products. They are super tough and the fish love them.

Great video! Seeing two species I'd never seen/heard of in Alabama before. Would love a catch and cook of those perch and tomtates

[@richardbeech2543]

Another great vid from the Bama Saltwater master. You make it look so easy.

[@stevetady5332]

Sweet Home! My man enjoys himself, is very aware of what he COULD leave behind and is a great steward of his surroundings. Refreshing.

[@chrisgunn408]

Just now watching your last video. I'll watch this one next. Bonus fishing tonight! Thanks man! Love your channel!

[@michaelfranklyn5660]

Nothing like a hard day of work and coming home settling down to watch some Bama fishing 😎

[@edShear]

Stephen. I'm just another in a long line of folks that love your videos. Watch just about every day and am never disappointed. Just great that you're close to 100,000, subscribers - it won't be long now - congrats. Really like the boat decking, and the fact that you thank our lord for all your bounty as well as your cuss free manor. Have a great weekend my man. I wonder how long it would take if you entertained just two people a week that want to fish with you.

[@usausa8839]

Love every video man what great content! Tight lines!

[@rwhealthy]

love seeing all these different species and you teaching us about them

Great content buddy

[@A.CFishingextreme]

another amazing video I love your work

[@MrGabrielJude]

As a family we’ve surf fished using fish bites on rigs for a few years now with much success! But never would’ve thought of using fish bites in that sand flea set up! Brilliant!

[@PaintedTurtle001]

Nice fishing. The multi-species type is my favorite. I'm going to give those fishbites a try.

[@Allirys]

Proud Bama boy. Its nice when you show your respect for your state. Cool vid! ::::+

I just recently found your channel and I LOVE it!!! I like your laugh and I love the catch, cook and eat! Makes me want to book a fishing trip in Alabama 😊

[@jeffvanhooser233]

Thank you for not letting your fish flop on the deck. then hold them for five minutes before you release them

[@reeblob2673]

Fr it makes no sense why a lot of influencers do this, unless it’s giant you can just hold it in front of your face and release it, it’s easier then trying to wrestle them on the boat

[@michaelshelton8491]

Awesome camera work and video presentation! You are so blessed!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thank you! That we are!

[@VP_fishing]

Nice vid

🤙🏼🤙🏼 heck yeah!

[@goodcitizen64]

@Bama Saltwater I'm in rural west Texas, and I haven't been able to go do any fishing for over a decade due to VA 100% service connected disabled veteran! I loved it when I was stationed in Alaska. The only place in the world I've been we're you could catch monster king salmon, then shoot a moose and then a grizzly bear all during the same weekend trip! Then, go to the coast and be able to catch the bottom fish species. Many of which my wife abd I had never heard of much less catch, we diffently preferred the Halibuts buy almost every single rockfish species was delicious white meat also. My family, mostly our parents, a little lake property here in TX, but it's an 8 hour drive one way and makes weekend trips about worthless. All 5he more reasons for loving your videos, brother!

[@dannilaser16]

Very nice boat.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks!

[@cross9494]

We have a fellow up here "Rocky Drake" that fishes Guntersville Lake a lot! He has a youtube channel also, like you he has the best time fishing and gives good information on catching! He fishes with live shad most of time! Love to watch both of y'all.

[@heathpruitt2695]

Also I like you videos. You make me wanna move to the Beach and fish there. The fishing has been bad at the lakes around Tn.

[@jeremybrown5117]

Those sand perch remind me of green sun fish on the gill plates, pretty cool

[@stratos150]

Another great video. Have you ever fished the underwater cypress forest in the Gulf. I was watching some videos about it is almost unbelievable something like that is just 10 miles out.

[@rick_inflorida]

I'm down here now on the hunt for some sheepshead for the first time. Just got to find a place. I'm beat from that drive lol.

[@rick_inflorida]

@text4363 how about you keep your prize and let me send ya a Bible? 😉 Jesus loves you scammers to 😁

[@justinM88]

I can’t wait for the day when u start charting trips

[@troystoner8894]

Stephen love your videos always and love my brother's in Christ. Would love to come fish with you sometime. Keep it up!

[@leehanzalik9033]

We are headed out tomorrow in the bays here, hoping to get on the specks. My new lady is going with us....1st time on a boat

[@leehanzalik9033]

my lady caught her first ever fish yesterday, a keeper sand trout, she can now put on her own shrimp & cast the rod....very proud of her. 55 years old.

[@LowCountryFishing]

Hey brother if you edit your film in Adobe Premiere Pro it will allow you to synchronize your audio from your chest camera and point and shoot clamped on the bow hand rail. 😊 good stuff as always none the less. If you ever want to come to Savannah, can show you around…Dan

[@jackiebishop9574]

Steven, first you are hop skip and a jump from Texas. I am so jealous that you have that kind of nice fishing weather. Pig fish....nice bait for black tip...lol. Yes, I am whining, but if you ever make a trip to Port Aransas, Texas and need a "deck hand" please contact me......I will be willing an able!!!

[@user-vs3nt8ch2q]

Havent seen you catch many grouper.. Is there a certain time of year or depth that you can target them more easily? Great and informative jigging videos last few weeks

[@stephenevans1091]

Just got into Gulf Shores yesterday from Texas! Been watching a good bit of your videos and have enjoyed them. Hoping to get down there and do a good bit of fishing myself. Best place to get gear?

[@commanderjank9060]

Great video. One day I'd like to fish the bama coast. Looks cooler then the balm heat of tampa FL. 😁

[@louisc5115]

We need the grunt fish fry!

[@tyrfingbroadaxe1217]

Thanks for another awesome vid. If You’re going for mangroves on a reef, are you supposed to use a circle hook when using natural bait?

[@BamaSaltwater]

Yes. When using any natural or live bait while reef fishing, circle hooks are required. Synthetic and lures/jigs do not require circle hooks

[@stevetautog880]

dude you are as of course you now living the dream I just want to say how cool it is that fish bites are effective bait no longer to we have to deal with ice and stink and ice and stink of our choice in bait lol

[@stearnsbingham552]

I agree with the dude about not letting fish go soon enough. Lots of guys will hold the fish out 30 minutes while they tout the benefits of early release.

[@tehgibbles8314]

Heading out to Orange Beach in June. Besides the pier and shore, any other recommendations? Charters would be cool too.

[@animalsnatcher]

First and I’m camping

[@koolhandduke4087]

Love watching your videos, wish I was out there with you. New Subcr.

[@TomMendoladrums]

Hi Stephen. I enjoyed your video. I didn't know about clam fish bites. I will give them a try here on the West Coast for Striped Bass. I use the Saltist MQ 4000 here w/30lb braid on the ocean for multi species. I love the reel. Thanks for the video.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks! Yes, I like the Clam for when the fish want a more cuddle presentation ! Great choices.

[@anthonyweatherby4005]

Love watching your videos just wanted to know if I can get that fishgum sent to Australia

[@mikeyb3880]

A good size grunt is delicious.

[@davidd8435]

How is the new surface on the boat deck , and is it affordable?

[@berikso4110]

Self leveling trim tabs? If so just curious of your review.

[@magicworldbyjorg]

[@Acorsap]

Bummed it’s raining today but going tommorow because of you gonna try up the reefs

[@BamaSaltwater]

Awesome, yeah I was lucky to get this trip in before the rain came! It's been crappy the past two days. Good luck, looks to be calming

[@northface484]

Rogue Waves....!!!

[@paulumer4378]

yess sir more offshore. them sheepshead videos were getting old

[@BamaSaltwater]

For sure, it's just hard to get out in the rough seas we've been having

[@jbodoughnuts]

How do you go about locating the artificial reefs?

[@heathpruitt2695]

Would you show sometimes how to tie different knots and how to tie them on your set ups. Just a thought

[@Johnfor3]

So how do you like your Drotto? I love mine!

[@ronaldcourville6472]

Nice video ,would livw to fish with you and your mom

[@thorstenrusch8652]

we here have a similar fish to the sand perch (the weever) but they are damn poisenous. I´ve been stung by it once. Never knew how bad pain can be...

[@HuyH]

Great videos. Gotta ask, what reel is the you're using? Keep up the great work!

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks! And I'm using a Daiwa Saltist MQ 2500 Spinning Reel with 15lb. Power Pro Super Slick Blue Braid
