Hooking MASSIVE Pier Fish on Live Mullet Bait

While fishing some live mullet as bait, we started hooking some massive pier fish! During the fall months in south east Florida a unique bait migration occurs. It is known as the mullet run, which to anglers can be a magical time. Massive tarpon, snook and sharks all gorge themselves on these silver baitfish. Fishing a place like the pier can create unique opportunities to hook these saltwater beasts!

I’m trying! Thanks for watching Sir! 🍻

[@LazyAnglerFL]

You might be the world record holder for number of splices pulled off in 2021 🤣🤣🤣

[@RyanMorie]

Lmao 🤣 I definitely try to splice a lot! (Even in situations where it’s destined to fail haha)

[@LazyAnglerFL]

@@RyanMorie im going to just start cutting it and doing the splice when tripletail get caught in the bouy line and yell "Doing the Morie" 🤣🤣🤣

Tight lines brother!

[@travelingwiththefish955]

I love u showing the rods you use that day 👍

[@ronaldarchie7276]

On the crystal coast of NC we have a mullet run every year we have tarpon, bull reds, sharks and king mackerel we catch from boats, piers and banks in the sounds and the ocean during our mullet runs.

[@bendaniels87]

Sweet video Ryan! I ran down to Juno from Vero yesterday after seeing those pics and was looking everywhere for the fish blowing up on mullet but didn’t find em. Crazy how much changes in a day!

[@RyanMorie]

That’s one of the magical parts about fishing. Literally every day is different

[@brentvanwie1961]

I also got broke off on pilings over and over heavier gear just got bigger fish love the salt

[@julianleyva9668]

gotta love the mullet run shout out from Jupiter

[@corneliusbadenhorst5612]

Was awesome to see what you guys use. New around here and only have like 14ft beach rod. Pier fishing feels hard and luck from the beach hasn’t been great

Tarpon will surprise you they don't always immediately jump I hooked four last week only one came out of the water at all no huge jumps just go go go

The unpredictability makes them one of my favorite fish 🤙🏼

[@RyanMorie]

We’ll “make it” together 🍻🍻🍻

[@RustyManisduckman]

Enjoyed the video. Ryan, I'm an inland fisherman (bluegill, bass, ect.) Maybe go over what and how hi do the splicing when the fish go under dock. Opps I mean pier. And out the other side. Thanks a lot, and thank you for your service!

[@RyanMorie]

Haha, I’m usually unsuccessful, but essentially we snag the line in the other side of the pier. Have one person hold the line with the fish and keep it tight, Then have someone else get a bunch of slack line so they have enough time to tie a splice, they cut it, then they run to the fish’s side of the pier, splice as fast as possible (maybe even skip trimming the tag ends) and reel tight to the fish.

[@RustyManisduckman]

@@RyanMorie thanks but how do you tie the lines back together

[@vinniegibaldi7716]

Where is that Pier located always looking for new spots ..

[@johnhollis7290]

In your opinion what is it about the Tern 600 you didn't quite like ??? Thanks.........

[@saltyspigot600]

Hopefully good action around Lake Worth area ?

[@kevinflabouyfishing5739]

How much are 9ft pier rods now I have a couple old chaos from lake worth days growing up , you mentioned hard to find

[@BugsBunny07]

when the fish out fishes you. tarpon whooped your butt man smh LOL

[@ramirojuarez7379]

Hey Ryan how come you don't "like" the Accurate Tern? Any other reel of its class you'd prefer? Also what happened with the clicker on the VS lol you never said what happened after you lost the shark.

[@robbieallan6522]

When I was about 13 so 30 years ago we use to snag mullet with a big treble hook the only difference was we put a lead weight musket ball tight underneath the treble hook just a 1oz to get under the shoal quicker then jag n reel jag n reel almost like your deep water jigging, sadly its no longer legal because some fool took 10s of thousands from around the isle of man in the UK and stocks have never recovered, and once it was a joke that it you needed a short cut across the harbour just walk across the backs of the grey mullet! That's how many their were but now you rarely see more than a dozen In a shoal.

[@twmpuketa]

Was born and raised in lake worth. From the pier The schools better yet the shoals of mullet went on for as far as you could see north and south for 200 yards off the beach. The pompano bluefish permit snook tarpon shark would be everywhere boiling the water. More catching than fishing!

[@william9922]

A lake worth rat; stay there please

[@lisawardell9160]

It had to be fun fighting that.tarpon anyway

[@jpt2026]

Can ppl keep blacktip sharks that size on juno pier

[@PrimeTimeAllen]

what’s the best bait for juno?

[@sharkybarks2946]

The sheer amount of people who had their rods in your way had me infuriated. The complete lack of social awareness of some people is wild.

[@jackchn23]

Can you show the quick splice knots you use and explain the technique? Uni to uni, surgeon’s,Alberto?

[@RyanMorie]

I’d just say whatever splice you have the most confidence with and you can tie the quickest. I’ve even done it where I skip trimming the tag ends and just reel the whole thing onto the spool (obviously go back and trim them later)

[@joshuanguyen2462]

He’s fishing in Miami that’s me and my family on the pier

[@dakotafrank5907]

Me personally I would've went the other way with the tarpon and run down to the beach far away from the pier and land him on the beach. Much better land rate and you can take any piercing left on them

[@kylebryson2119]

Dude try to use a South African setup from the surf might be alot of fun and great content

[@kylebryson2119]

Slide live bait from the surf

[@kevinflabouyfishing5739]

If you had to guess how many pounds was it the 1st tarpon?

What kind of sunglasses do you have?

[@antwanjones679]

I see fwc pass law to fish for Goliath groupers. And keep them

[@timallaire1]

Which pier is this?

[@streetfighter398]

Why didn’t he try to bring the tarpon to the beach?!

[@brentnanita3939]

I always laugh at guys at the pier with big bait combos but don't bring a pier net.

[@ivangarcia-cc9zv]

[@All4Survival]

Mate use heavier leader especially for the sharks. Or else you will keep catching nothing

[@561.hudson9]

yo what up ryan i’m early to get his one.I have been starting to pier fish at my local piers like deerfield and i was thing of getting a shimano speedmaster 2 size 16 and a 8ft star rod do you think that would be good for snook of the oier

Seems like alot of bad fishing leaving a ton of line attached to a hooked fished.

People not moving is terrible

[@FLFlatsmaster]

jeez man most people on that pier were so inconsiderate... like gtfo of the way!!

[@sunshinecycling]

Bringing the Jack up like that seems unnecessarily abusive and hard on the fish. A lot of channels promote healthy catch and release....that doesn't seem like it.

[@maxmock2661]

that was good technique and the fish was fine

[@Jewjitsu_]

All you are doing is leaving a massive amount of line in the water hanging off fish and also leaving hooks in them! Not a fan of this 💩
