Fishing in The Florida Keys - Bridge Fishing - Amazing multi species fishing | The Fish Locker

Fishing from one of the many road bridges in the Florida Keys we catch multiple tropical species and a surprise encounter with a very large bycatch. Under very challenging conditions to start with, Mrs Fishlocker and I land some stunning fish. Then I return for the afternoon and have some incredible sport with multiple new species and PB's. Witness loads of wonderful sea creatures and top up my tan in the process ( very sunburnt scalp!! ) I explain what I am doing and why, the rigs I am using and share any lessons learned from this session. I hope it helps.
Here are links to some of the fishing tackle I used in this video. I hope it helps.

Just been and checked out the store, and liking quite a LOT of the stock, something for all the family! Just curious, John, do you receive something from the sales? It would definitely add to the purchase if I thought I was helping the channel in some small way.😊 Thanks.

Your videos are always great to watch. Both entertaining and educational. Often thought when you've done your shore foraging, a group of students studying marine biology could learn so much on a field trip with you. Your knowledge , enthusiasm and respect for the environment shines through.

Great video , I have been traveling to the S W florida coast around the Sanibel island area from the UK for 20 years fishing mainly for Tarpon and Snook , a couple of things I have learnt you might find useful is a Thermacell handheld unit works great at keeping the mosquitoes away , ace hardware stores have them as do Bass pro shops , my wife and I have 1 each and take them everywhere , if you do get bitten, the best thing by far is witch hazel I buy a bottle as soon as I arrive from a cvs chemist , sometimes you have to ask for it they sometimes keep it behind the counter , don't know why , just put it straight on the bites for instant relief , the best bait I have found for Tarpon is a small blue swimming crab , if you touch your index finger to your thumb that circle is about the size you want , a thin gauge mutu style circle hook and work the hook through the point on the side from the bottom to the topside with a twisting motion to not crack the shell , freeline it in front of the Tarpon give plenty of slack you want the crab right down in front of there face , don't strike just tighten , you can buy crabs or catch them , to declaw them just squeeze the claw with pliers and it will shed it , I hope you jump one they are spectacular , i have videos on my channel from where i go if your interested ,feel free to question me , tight lines Andy
