Fishing with straws at apache pier

[@ssmith29440]

I fished Apache pier this past week and fished beside Capt. Cook. He let kids use his rod and showed them how to jig. These kids were all smiles and the look on their faces catching fish was priceless. Getting these boys and girls hooked on fishing is what he's all about. Thanks to Apache Pier and Capt. Cook for a great day of fishing.

That's awesome....we need more people like this in the world, things would be so much better.

[@donnamalinski5780]

I have watched a lot of video's and this was one of the best. thank you

[@nope8218]

Thank you Frank for your tips 2 days ago, we had so much fun catching so many fishes with your techniques ,keep on the good work and hope you keep posting more fishing or tip videos, God bless u and ur family, have a wonderful day

[@ssyoum]

I was there last week and thank you for your kind teaching. Your video is very clear and I will certainly make one and try there in September.

[@silkmothspinnery]

I hope you will be there this year, I would love to meet you! I love this lesson, I make my own mackerel trees using glitter flies I tie myself. I live in Maine and the mackerel and harbor pollock love my flies. I can't wait to see how the fish there like them!

[@Gr8videos]

Was great seeing you by the Apache pier, was a honor to see one of the best fishermen ever.

[@johncevora242]

My wife and I was just there recently. Frank is a class act. Nice meeting you.

[@geop8832]

[@edzkos59]

[@rwh-fr4zs]

[@albertorozco3652]

Capt. Frank thank you for showing us this rig. I'm new to finishing and today I bought all the supplies to make my own. Do you have other rigs you won't mind sharing for using in the pier. Again thank you for video.

[@phatmagic350]

[@ccross6900]

I'll be down there in early June and I'm going to try this out Captain Hook. Hopefully see you out there in the Apache Pier.

[@WoodysReeltimeFishing]

Sir, If I'm not mistaken, I think I remember you from September 2004 on Apache Pier. I just started youtube and you showed me how to catch spot with little pieces of bloodworm fishbites. Love your videos.

[@pwall1525]

Nice to see you after all these years

[@liallen4973]

Thanks Frank,also people need order a fishing pole stand for it ,from eBay the jigging rod rockers . About 54 dollar ...

[@doblestnyy7703]

Hey this is the lid you saw at a pier today ypure awesome guy😊

[@liallen4973]

Thanks ,my best teacher .

[@grandwonder5858]

This is the most thorough and best demo on how to rig a mackerel tree that I have ever seen! Thank you very much for posting this! Does this rig catch other fish beside mackerels? Where can I get that swivel that you placed on the top of the pier's railing? Thanks!

[@joshfishing3401]

Love it went down last year and it was amazing

[@RiverLifeUS]

Great meeting you at Apache Pier today 👍I used your method to catch Spanish Mackerel and Blue Fish with no knot or function failures. Thanks Capt. Frank!

[@scsouthbeach1]

Thanks 😀👍

[@precicorona6586]

Awesome looking rig sir I’ll have to give a try do you think it will work for freshwater striper

[@goodtimefishing4979]

Great video

[@tri-cityappliancerepair4860]

Good work frank

[@donb3133]

Great video! Can regular straws be used?

[@gamingbros5373]

Hey I was the kid who caught the Spanish macrual that was in the blue shirt

[@RandomJ2023]

Mcdonald's straws are the best ones to use. Grab a handful next time with your McDouble lol

[@kylesims1575]

Hi I’m the kid that was at the pier and you were there on June 5 th or 6 th and you and my dad josh were talking my sister was there and my mom and my little brother and you showed usyour KZbin channel and told us about the straw fishing I think it’s really cool you should post more about it and other places if you like if you get at least 1000 subscribers then you could actually make money off of this so hope your fishing goes well see you later

[@frankcook9669]

O K Kyle I'll be arriving April 6th and fishing until late November. Look me up and we'll do it again.

[@CarolinaChance82]

2 questions for you. #1 what is a good length rod to use for jigging? #2 where can I get a ride rocker, can't seem to find them? Thanks, Tight Lines!

[@mikebarino3495]

A lot of people use a 15ft pole. I have a 12ft that I used last year that worked fine. I purchased rod rocker off of eBay

[@rwaters799]

My FAVORITE thing to do at Apache pier! Also, I bought my favorite rod rocker from some of the local fisherman for using my jigging rigs. Frank didn’t mention it, but if they’re running, often you can bring up 2 and 3 Spanish at a time!

[@frankcook9669]

Yes!!! My record is 6 over the rail but I 've seen 7 come up before.

[@GageKeenan-g9f]

I remember when I met this dude

[@pwall1525]

I hear you are in town. Marie and I would like to see you.

[@edzkos59]

In 2022 where is Frank fishing at is he still at Apache Pier or did he move on someplace else

[@ralphcubberly]

What size of pole do you have and where can I get one? Also the little attachment for the pier you are using?

[@frankcook9669]

I use a 15ft pole. The rail clamp is called a ROD ROCKER. The pier tackle shop has them or look them up online.

[@herbertmeade348]

where did you get the rod holder to bob the rod up and down?

[@dannyedwards7123]

Where can I get one of those clamp on swivel rod holders that you use in your video?

[@CigarSherpaCigarReview]

Did you ever find out?

[@PaFisherman]

@@CigarSherpaCigarReview they are on eBay for 49.90 + shipping. You can buy them at the tackle store right at Apache pier for $59 and one of these rugs for $7 with a weight

[@CigarSherpaCigarReview]

What is the mount that holds the rod to the pier called?

[@mikebarino3495]

Does it matter if the hooks is gold or not. Hard to find them 4/0 in gold or 3/0

[@PaFisherman]

Did you ever find the hooks? I went to our tackle store (inland ) and they only had size 4, not size 4/0. They had 4/0 in Mustad O’Shaughnessy but they are rather large and a coffee stirrer wouldn’t come close to fitting in one, and I just bought 1000 stirrers. 🤨

[@richarddabbs5832]

Regular straws or coffee stirrer or does it not matter

[@johnnybell5338]

Man I have been going to Apache pier since I was 1 year old and now in 14 and catching sharks there

[@JDirtsExotics]

Good eating still if you know how to clean and cook them. I fish just into Georgetown Co so I can keep them while I fish for Pompano.

[@wrallen53]

How long is the poles you use and where do you buy them?

[@frankcook9669]

My pole is 15 ft. The pier tackle shop. Or bass pro has them or look them up on line. Good fishing and see you at the pier!

[@edzkos59]

Does anyone know whatever happened to Frank?

[@dwaynesmith5556]

He is at the state park pear now

[@edzkos59]

@@dwaynesmith5556 thank you I just moved to the area and I love to see him when I came on vacation I would see him every day at the pier I didn't like the beach but I like to watch people fish

[@josuepolanco2431]

I'll be there this weekend? What pound line are you using?

[@frankcook9669]

On my jig l use 40 lb. On my reel l use 30lb.

[@ChristianSanford-ow8ze]

One to the state park peir Friday

[@NaNa-sy4lq]

How do you make that fishing pole holder

[@frankcook9669]

I'm going to intro the "ROD ROCKER" IN MY NEXT VIDEO.it should be out in late April 2019.

[@PaFisherman]

@@frankcook9669 Are all the parts available to just assemble one? It seems like there are some very specific parts that you wouldn’t find just anywhere but I’m just guessing.

[@Gr8videos]

Frank rocks!

[@NaNa-sy4lq]

You can’t do this in California

[@angelmackey9578]

Jesse Phillips this is a underrated comment

[@takackman9325]

have an upvote sir.

[@zash008]

For two reasons: 1. The straws pollute California. 2. This rig is know in the state of California to cause cancer.

[@thomasj.mathis322]

This works!

[@pwall1525]

I wish you a Happy Birthday tomorrow

[@dwaynesmith5556]

Sad to say but frank is no longer allowed on the peir
