[@keyspeople9428]

So glad you're back! Saw you had some family time. Happy Birthday and great video! We love y'all!

[@bobpatterson5402]

Good to see your are still trying out the slow pitch jigging . Great video!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Yes, really enjoying the technique. It’s really fun and catches a lot of fish.- Capt Dan

[@ryanhackert7062]

Nice to meet you this weekend at Gilbert's. Thanks again for the Miller Lites. Really enjoy your videos. Ryan and Elizabeth

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Hey, thanks guys! Great meeting you all! -Capt Dan & Elizabeth

[@AbbyBrian]

Great day of fishing. Looking forward to visiting the Keys someday in the future. Brian

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I hope you are able to visit sometime soon. - Capt Dan

[@parfaithugues7459]

Incredible fight... Sorry for the loss

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Very painful.......😪

[@jamesloerzel4377]

I'm behind on spj... I'm looking at the green Goofish rod. What depths, and gram weights do you recommend of this rod... Thank you

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

You can check out the specifications of all the SPJ rods on our website and get a 10% discount as well. I found the green rod to be a mid range SPJ rod. I have used it in waters up to 300 feet deep with jigs from 200-300 grams. Check it out here: floridafishingcouple.com/our-gear

[@redouanepeche]

Hello, my friend, a fisherman. Thanks for explaining how to fish. I made you catch a lot⚓⚓🎣🦈

[@southernrockiesselfreliance]

Man I can’t wait to get to Florida this summer 🥇 thanks for the vid

[@MaxdOut305]

Just got a goofish rod which I’m also going to use out of Key Largo MM97 Ocean side. Did great with blacks and muttons this year, Now I’m going to hit nice spots on CMOR maps using slow pitch jigs.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I’ve been using the CMOR mapping system with a lot of success lately.

[@MaxdOut305]

Great show. Let me know when you’re going to go out and I’ll hook with you. I’m on MM97 ocean side.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Funny thing is I rarely know when I’m going to go out. Between weather and work I usually just make a last minute decision and go! That’s why I fish solo sometimes.

[@rnr1728]

Great video. Where did you get the live Pilchards in key largo? Thanks

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I found them on my out of Adams cut. Just happened to have a sabiki ready to go.- Capt Dan

[@salsmario327]

Love you guys!

[@CaptCollier]

How do you like that shimano torium paired with that rod? Do you feel that its alittle heavy for it or just right?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

The Torium 16 is perfect for the blue rod; I need something a little bit smaller for the green one. Still looking, not sure yet which to pair it with. - Capt Dan

[@CaptCollier]

@@FloridaFishingCouple try the accurate valiant 300. That’s what I have paired with my blue goofish. Was wondering how you liked the 16 torium paired with it because it’s about twice the weight

[@johnanuku3424]

What type of reel are you using on the yellow goofish rod?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Right now I am using a Torium 16 - but looking for a smaller reel with more drag. Maybe a Accurate 300 or a Gomexus 450. Depends on the performance of both which one I will stay with. - Capt Dan

[@nelsonlima8477]

What kind of fishing line you use for Yellow Rod???? And thank you

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I was using 30 pound test green power pro braid. - Capt Dan

[@bryancruz4252]

Love your videos ❤️

[@Prone-Ski_BX]

Which one do you like better the blue or the yellow. Seems like the blue is better equipped for the big boys.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

The blue is rated for larger jigs and fish. They both can handle anything you throw at them. Have a giveaway with Goofish rods coming soon. Stay tuned!

[@patrickkelly8095]

If you’re slow pitch jigging in those depths what size line are you using?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

20 lb test diamond braid

[@fedearrosa823]

Hey Dan what do you recommend the blue or green? For fishing 100-500ft jig no heavier than 300

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Definitely the green or the black ( which are identical blanks). Check out our website for 10% off code.

[@trueoutdoorsman]

Good stuff!

[@imnotscaredbro]

So, about the GooFish rods, are they all the same but different colors? Or?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

No, the different colors represent different levels of strength, weight of the jig, and pound test of the line used. Blue is a heavier more stout rod than the yellow/green rod for example. - Capt Dan

[@imnotscaredbro]

@@FloridaFishingCouple thank you!

[@chillipphi]

I’m trying to get started in slow pitch too. How do you manage the line while fighting a fish or do you just not worry about it piling up in one spot too much on those bigger conventional reels?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

The reel is very small and you just use your thumb to keep the line where you want it to go.

[@myboatflxscout5723]

Are you slow pitching only at wrecks?

[@asmmw]

Man.... that shark run.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Could not stop or turn him. When I saw him take the tuna he looked to be about 300 pounds. - Capt Dan

[@ShipMonster]

Where is this, the humps?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

On the way to the Humps that day.

[@ShipMonster]

@@FloridaFishingCouple wow, I wasn't expecting a reply, you earned a loyal sub. I'll be taking the family and boat down in 2 weeks to Islamorada. It'll be my 1st time slow pitch jigging. Fingers crossed

[@oceandeepfishing4555]

Hey guys. I just wanted to tell Dan next time he's into big AJ's I would send down a jig on a beefy rod combo. Those fish are excellent on the smoker for both fish dip and just eating. Besides, you can't just let that new smoker sit around. Tight lines.....

[@oceandeepfishing4555]

Well Capt Dan Got into some nice fish. Great weather in that video. I'm hoping we get some decent days while we're down there. By the way I sent you an email on the dates Peggy and I will be down. So between the two, blue and green, which do you like better? Man I thought you were going to be spooled with that shark. I'm glad you ran up on him to get some line back.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I think I actually like the green better but, I have the black on order. Looking forward to that one. -Capt Dan

[@oceandeepfishing4555]

@@FloridaFishingCouple isn't the black one on back order?

[@richardwebb547]

kool

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thanks!

[@myboatflxscout5723]

What reel are you using with yellow rod?

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

We have a Torium Shimano.

[@TheJwhollis]

Trade that Torium16HGA for a Torium 16PGA and you'll get 33lb drag instead of 24 lb drag. Also the PGA comes with a power handle which makes it great straight up/down slow pitch jigging. Really enjoy your solo adventures. BOL/Be safe!!!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Thanks for the advice! Appreciate that! This type of fishing is new to me so I am learning and passing along the info as I go. - Capt Dan

[@jeffchase6673]

p oil

[@TheJwhollis]

Please make a BIG announcement when those GOOFISH rods come in black. Sure I would buy a few in shiny or matte black. Thanks,,, BOL/TightLines !!!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

They hit me up yesterday. They are finally in. Put my order in immediately. - Capt Dan

[@TheJwhollis]

Thanks for that one.@@FloridaFishingCouple

[@fishingwithfoxxxy1371]

i tried to get one to do a review and they wouldn't send me one cause i don't have many subs i was gona do reviews on Facebook in the slow pitch groups but they wouldn't do it

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Who? Goofish or Gomexus?

[@billyschauer4061]

Where's heiko!?

[@mahimahiaddictioncesargonz5445]

Jigging is Alot of fun. Go to wreck and rt a 50 ++ lb Amberjack and that's Fun

[@fedx2185]

Dude where is your floatation device...? You at sea by your self....! You only get one chance to be safe.....! Nice to see a fresh video..

[@TheDrPopEye]

Well, at least you got a good workout!

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

Ha! That’s for sure! - Capt Dan

[@terrymoseley9371]

[@jamessheline375]

Fishing is great until the tax man gets you. Great video. Thank you.

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

I know, just the cost of fishing business I guess! 🦈

[@anthonykubis5575]

You need to get them fish up faster Sargent Major the problem here is the Bull Sharks are faster than you are.. lol

[@markshroyer1315]

Supposed to be a how to video you should rename it how to get spooled

[@FloridaFishingCouple]

[@markshroyer1315]

[@markshroyer1315]
