[@colilew]

Love the content bud. What type of rig and bait do you use for mutton snapper?

[@chrisangerman576]

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I was just using a light action spinning reel, with 8lb line. And mainly just using small crank baits.

Great content. I'm heading to St. Thomas in Feb. Curious about fishing license/permits? Can you purchase online or is there a certain store there to look for?

[@chrisangerman576]

Fishing license isn’t required for recreational fishing down there.

WHAT KIND OF LURE WERE YOU USING? im going to Saint kitts and want to try fishing something.....un abrazo from Chile

[@chrisangerman576]

I’m using small crank baits and plastic grubs on a jig head.

[@carlospereda3069]

I went to Saint kitts before, tried all what I had and only catched one fish in a month...jajajaja.. there are ponds with tarpoons...and couldnt catch not even one

[@kawaguchi1978]

how many fishing rods do you have with you during your trip? And what kinda rods? Mine trip to Curaçao is next week...

[@chrisangerman576]

I bring 3 rods with me. One rod is for big fish over 40 pounds. Then I have a medium rod for normal fishing. I bring a light rod for small reef fish, which I love catching. All of my rods are cheap telescopic rods, they all cost about $20. The rods are called Hurricane Mako.

[@kawaguchi1978]

I want to take mine 10 gram ultra light rod to try..

[@chrisangerman576]

@@kawaguchi1978 I catch most of the fish on my ultra light. You’ll do great with that.

[@kawaguchi1978]

Just went back 1 week from Curaçao, caught one big tarpon with dead bait and the rest of the different species i caught with mine 10gram Rod!! Also that barracuda thanks.! I want to buy a second light rod from max 15g now for the distance.

@@kawaguchi1978 awesome, that’s great to hear! I’m glad you did good.

[@curtleyw1]

what kind/ brand of lure did you fish with

[@chrisangerman576]

I’m not sure of the brands, but I used small crank baits and jig head with grubs.

@chrisangerman576 yeah it pretty good. Lots of Snook, Jacks, Tarpon and Barracuda but really fancy going for some micro species. Thanks again G

[@chrisangerman576]

@@GsTiteLines awesome. I like targeting the smaller stuff too, you can get a different species every cast.

I hope you took that mutton home 🥹

[@chrisangerman576]

Nope, all catch and release!

[@h20bearboy65]

what "shoes" are you using? headed down there soon to do the same thing, don't want to get my feet torn up by coral & Rocks? and did you show the bait you used for the Tarpon?

[@chrisangerman576]

I’ve tried every type of water shoes, and the best thing is crocs. Everything else is bad in sand.

[@chrisangerman576]

I got the tarpon on swim baits. I get more barracuda then anything but a tarpon will hit it occasionally.
