A shark fishing video would be so cool!

[@CyborgNinja.]

I agree 👍

[@MikeJanusz]

Agree!

[@thebluvdone]

Another great video Thon. Show us how to tie up. Leader to main line and also what knots you use to tie on your hooks and lures 👍

[@Thonny]

That’s on the list for sure! Thanks for watching!

[@lucaswoodard6916]

Went down to Sand Key a couple days after watching one of your sheepshead videos and caught my first sheepshead along with 4 others. Me and my friend had a great lunch! Thanks man!

[@Thonny]

Nice! 👍

[@jasonbenjamin9371]

Perfect timing for this video! Have some artificial shrimp I am going to use down in Florida and was looking for some tips how to use them effectively as I usually use live bait. Thanks 😊

[@dolphinsdream8675]

Shark fishing!!! Yessss! That would be a great watch!

[@FishOnChannel]

Yeah boy, Thonny on the action😀

[@robertb.hinojosa2138]

Hell yea, do a Shark Video. Or a Peacock Bass Video would be pretty good too.

[@user-cl3dd3ym7d]

You have done a really good job on this episode thonny 🎉

[@RustyReels]

Good action man! Those jacks are a blast sometimes haha

[@piinkwock9535]

Hey thonny was wondering where you found that Simms backpack the one on the thumbnail of the video where you fished with fat belly two videos ago

[@saltylocal6917]

I’ve been living in FL (gulf coast also) for over five years and have NEVER had a good day like this! I’ve spent hours in “common” areas and get nothing but lady fish, lizard fish or the occasional bonnet head. Thonny’s a BEAST at catching!

[@PokerGuts]

Every new Thonny video: WHERE IS THE SPOT? LOL

[@safye4]

Just started fishing and looking to do my first saltwater trip soon in this area. Will have to try out this setup! BTW, shark video sounds dope.

[@bryanamirabal462]

Another banger great video... Let's see some shark fishing I think that would be dope.. tight lines my friend

[@keithxiong4863]

Can’t wait til you get a boat

[@zaidabu-rumman4535]

where is this spot?

[@fishing_amy]

Cool drone video. I like the artificial too

[@justinj5665]

always slaying my guy, good vids as usual✌🏽

[@Thonny]

Thanks man!

[@oneword3051]

Wow I was literally thinking of hitting this spot up and then you post this vid amazing bro. Decent snapper under those docs

[@PokerGuts]

Man can't figure this spot out the location

[@oneword3051]

It’s in the Tierra verde area. If that gets you any closer lol

[@lucaslidd]

I live in the tampa area also I would love to see some shark fishing so I can try what you do lol

[@austincanning7013]

Another great video, love the drone shots 💪

[@nikolasrobinson89]

It was awesome seeing you at the skyway yesterday man. Thanks for the tips, tight lines.

[@Thonny]

Likewise bud

[@BreezeLifeTV]

Yes, get into the shark 🦈 fishing

[@trooperdee1970]

DOA is great but don’t hold up to catching too many fish on it. After 5 to 10 trout it will not hold up. So a tip is to almost pull shrimp out off hook and coat hook with super glue then pull back over hook and then at bent out a drop of super glue and let dry for 30 mins and then you can catch 10 times fish on same shrimp!

[@Thonny]

Agreed 💯 I don’t like how the doa shrimp slides down the hook after a couple of fish! I started gluing them recently especially with z-man plastics. I find that the wapsi glue works better on plastics the other ones I use just burns the plastics

[@Fishinghawk007]

Thonny always good videos and info. I will definitely take some of those to Barbados next time I go. I've never use them before but the action was sick.

[@got1769]

Yes brother please do a Shark video 🦈 I caught two bonnetheads this past weekend on live shrimp! So much fun, thx for another great tutorial on artificials!!! Do you use a loop knot with those D.O.A. shrimp???

[@FloridaGalFishing]

Commenting in hopes of this giving me good luck & I’ll get some footage next 😭😫🙏🏽

Thanks dude!

[@josephgullo4488]

There you go! It doesn’t have to be a live bait to catch fish. Bravo!

[@Thonny]

Thanks for watching!

[@neilhela2212]

Been looking for this tip that no other fishing vids i watched provided. I just started fishing, and i got a shrimp lure from my father as a gift and im frustrated for not catching any fish lately with the lure.

[@Thonny]

Hope you catch for first one on the artificial shrimp! 👊

[@scotthall9525]

Would really enjoy a shark video. If possible larger shark then I see alot of other channels do. Preferably 6ft and larger. It would be super cool to see you use Sting Ray for some really monster Hammerhead sharks

[@captainandrewcrabtree6535]

Nice man! DOA is the ole faithful... those voodoo shrimp by egret baits are money too 🤙

[@Thonny]

Heard about the vudu shrimp!

[@slimpickins9124]

Yep, picked up a few tips, thanks.

[@seang9450]

Definitely want to see a shark video! Maybe the apollo beach reserve?!?! I've seen and caught a bunch out there.

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Shrimp imitations can be awesome. Try the Salt Strong Power Prawns, they're just about perfect. You don't need legs or a bunch of details, the profile and action are what matters along with the presentation. I've also had good luck with the different Z Man shrimps. The buoyant plastic of Z Man and the Salt Strong prawns are superior to DOA and the action is better. I have some DOA shrimp and don't use them because the others are so much better in my opinion.

[@Thonny]

I like throwing artificial shrimp sometimes! Especially spots like the seawall. I’ve caught flounder and snook doing that near the south skyway pier

[@jamesreynolds5284]

Nice vid my man! Still waiting to get together & slay! 😆

[@doalures]

That’s great 🙌

[@copeman5902]

Yoooooooo still waiting for you to do a video with the vudu shrimp

[@Thonny]

That’s on the list for sure!

[@grannyjusthavingfun8767]

Thanks Thonny

[@davescheer5038]

Thon , should have cut up one of those jacks and tossed some out there on a heavy rig, oh make sure you throw on some of the skinny wire ! 👍🏼🐟

[@Thonny]

Wasn’t prepared 😂

I watch quite a few fishing videos. You are one of my favorites. Keep up the good work.

[@Thonny]

I appreciate it

[@frostizz2072]

I got a question for leader, do you tie leader directly on your main or use a swivel

[@Thonny]

I tie the leader directly to the main line

[@frostizz2072]

@@Thonny what knot is it, I’ve always been using a swivel

[@Thonny]

@@frostizz2072 I have a knot tying video up. Just look up Thonny knot

Thank you!!

[@jonathanmattson3640]

I have the worst luck with DOA'S every time by the second or third cast they get bitten in half by a dang puffer. Lol

[@Vballislife716]

@Thonny - as a fishing enthusiast, what are your thoughts on the documentary Seaspiracy?

[@landonwhite6764]

Shark fishing 🙏🏽

[@evanbfishing2415]

Sold action thonny🤟🏼

[@fishy804]

Where is this location

[@tyrekern3674]

Hey Thonny what type and size hooks were you using with the shrimp? Thanks

[@newsomeassoc]

Yes shark fishing videos

[@RepentGFX]

Do you fish those DOAS with a weighted hook?

[@Thonny]

They already come weighted! But you could fish them with weighted hook! They sell a 9 pack and they come unrigged

[@RepentGFX]

@@Thonny yes that’s what I got they just came with j hooks. Is the weight on those 1/16 or 1/8?

[@Thonny]

@@RepentGFX the 3” DOA shrimp is usually 1/4oz but it feels like a 1/8

[@chrisbell9319]

Great video again. Looking forward to trying those shrimp. A shark video sounds good.

[@thatmodder5938]

Caught 11 tarpon on a doa at the seven mile bridge last night

[@ryanwillis5462]

Would love to see a shark video

[@UzumakiClan0]

Do you fish st Pete more or old port Tampa bay ?

[@Thonny]

St Pete!

[@lucaslidd]

Banger

[@get-hooked-tackle941]

Replace the d.o.a hook with gamakatsu hook . its a game changer

[@Thonny]

That’s a good idea! What size hooks?

[@get-hooked-tackle941]

#1 & #2 fits well. #3,4,5,6 are wide gapped for big snook/grouper for all hook types. Oddly enough worm hooks and offset hooks serve thier own time and purpose like d.o.a shrimp body's.

[@TOOLMAKERA]

A shark video would be mixing things up, but I do love the trout action in this video. Good information on technique and equipment. Thanks for sharing another great video of a day on the water.

[@Thonny]

Thanks man!! I appreciate you for commenting on the vids!

@ min 3.41video.... definately NOT the correct way yo put a fish back when you are catching and releasing. :(
