How to Catch Red Snapper - Pensacola Bay Red Snapper Fishing

[@Brucethemooseart]

Just wanted to say thanks for this video, was visiting family and snapper fishing in Navarre July '22, got limit fri & sat, due to Blue Angel show on Sunday I decided to skip the traffic jam and follow your advice on the Bay, launched outta Ft Pickens and caught my PB snapper...31 inches, absolute tank. Thanks again, got mom hooked on watching your videos as well. lol

That is so awesome!! Heck of a fish!

[@TravisDoesKayakFishing]

At 3:28, that's a nice looking fish man. Good work.

[@southernsalt]

Thanks man!

There is some good eats, great job !!! Tight Lines.

[@southernsalt]

Yessir! Thanks man!

[@clintfulbright1596]

Great catch man, always wanted to come over there and do that. Only thing on your setup, is to put a plastic bead below your weight(between weight and swivel), if not that weight beat against the swivel and will cut your line/knot after a few fish.

[@southernsalt]

Man I’ve actually never had a problem with it breaking off there but I’ve seen others use the bead. Definitely worth adding it though to ensure I don’t get broke off there. Thanks for the tip.

[@cleanfunfishing]

Great video man !! I see your patreon is already taking off, that's awesome man !!

[@southernsalt]

Thanks man! Hopefully it’ll continue to grow, I’ve been dropping some great content on there this week. I’m going to put some technical stuff on there next month.

[@wesleybryant7334]

Another great video and tips, doesn’t look like a bad spot at all still being able to see the beach I wouldn’t be afraid to “paddle” out there only thing is I don’t run a fish finder.

[@southernsalt]

Thanks man, easy spot to get to but a fish finder is definitely needed.

[@wesleybryant7334]

Southern Salt Kayak Fishing ok thanks, someone bought me one of those cheap “Lucky” fish finders but i know it wont work for that. Just another thing to add to the upgrade list lol.

Nice ones Nate!

[@southernsalt]

Thanks brother!

[@countylineoutdoors1724]

Heck yeah man! Great catch! Check out patron tonight. Never fished Pensacola before. Heard a lot of great things.

[@southernsalt]

Pensacola bay is one of my favorite places, never know what you’re gonna get there. I caught a grouper the same day

[@countylineoutdoors1724]

Southern Salt Kayak Fishing that’s pretty cool to catch a inshore grouper. Yeah I need to do some research on the whole bay. I always want to get on that sheepshead bite I see everybody posting in the winter/spring.

[@VitaminDeeTV]

Awesome brother. Season is coming up so you should start getting some hits on this video, again! Keep the fire content coming! -D

[@southernsalt]

Thanks brother. I hope so!

[@andrewbell6766]

Love the video great job!

[@southernsalt]

Thanks man!

[@leonelmolinajr2]

What rod & reel were you using?

[@southernsalt]

The reel is an AVET. The rod is a custom rod I built.

[@nabru5612]

Yo can you make a vid of best baits/lures To use fishin has been slow for me maybe i doin it wrong

[@brianslack7111]

I live in the Pensacola area, but I’ve only fished fresh water. I’ve got some kayaks being shipped to the house. I haven’t watched a lot of your videos, but do you go out in the open ocean on your kayak any?

[@southernsalt]

Yeah I go off of PCola all the time there’s a few videos on here

[@brianslack7111]

@@southernsalt what do you use for bait mainly and are there any websites or videos you can point me to about the laws and such for kayak fishing?

[@chittychad18]

Any spots in pensacola I could use a 8lb medium action rod? I’m moving from Michigan, and my gear is mostly for bass and trout.

[@Rodentfisherman]

No way too light

[@saltykayaker]

Do they have red snapper like that in mobile bay near fort morgan?

[@southernsalt]

Yo know I’ve heard rumors that some have been caught a long time ago. But I would say there aren’t any spots in Mobile bay because it’s to shallow. Unlike Pensacola where their bay is 50 feet in some spots going all the way out of the mouth. There are some offshore spots only a few miles from Fort Morgan that do hold snapper though.

[@saltykayaker]

@@southernsalt Ok ,thanks for the info

[@gdj8013]

Ive heard of guys catching them on structure in the ship channel if mobile bay but nothing like Pensacola Bay

[@andrewbell6766]

Does it bother you when boats come by and rock your kayak?

[@southernsalt]

Depends on how close they are, I only mind when they come so close and put me or my gear at risk.

[@Drake_burgett]

I need to take my kayak out and get some fish

[@southernsalt]

Yessir!!!

[@micnguyen2864]

What’s the patreon website?

[@southernsalt]

It’s a site where I give a breakdown of each video of where I’m fishing and the spots where I catch each fish.

[@linkinpiatak6669]

What kayak do u have?

[@southernsalt]

Hobie pro angler

[@crapstar]

Do you know a place in inshore in the bay where I can catch big red snapper I don’t want to pay 1200 to go offshore 😂

[@southernsalt]

I put out a couple numbers to bay spots on my Patreon page. It’s only $20 a month but should definitely get you on some good spots.

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

Go out on a Saturday you dont need any electronics . Just a Big Boat.

[@jimmyfumbanks6081]

If i ever catch a Snapper ill hit the Uptoot 10 Times.
