[@Lee-is1iu]

We live and fish near Galveston island, I built one and it worked, now our ghost shrimp are alot smaller but it worked thanks

[@tomcabrera2769]

Before moving to Navarre I used ghost shrimp for salmon and steelhead fishing in CA.

[@BeardedBrad92]

That’s awesome. I’ve never done any salmon fishing. Would love to go do that some time.

[@kyliepierson8718]

Thanks again for another good vlog its beautiful out there Good luck with the fish

[@johnathanbuzzell4401]

[@garywarren2856]

Great job as always!

[@BeardedBrad92]

Thank you

[@bernie6956]

Thanks for sharing, I'll be checking your how to make one next.

[@HicksHooks]

Nice video Brad! I use sand fleas in the OBX, and they produce too! Just posted my video yesterday. I enjoy your channel man, keep the videos coming!

[@BeardedBrad92]

Thanks dude! I’ll check out your vids

[@HicksHooks]

@@BeardedBrad92 I appreciate it man! Keep up the great content!

[@ali1982an]

Great channel ,, learned a lot from it.

[@BeardedBrad92]

Awesome! Thank you!🤙

[@kenson6725]

Made mine using your how to video. Works great.

[@BeardedBrad92]

Awesome! Glad it’s working for you! Have you been catching a lot on the ghost shrimp?

[@kenson6725]

In Kentucky taking care of business, so unfortunately no.

[@sailor-rick]

thanks for the info

[@justintimetogo8500]

Nice bro . Thanks great video!

[@BeardedBrad92]

Yes sir!

[@FishGum]

Great how to vid on catching ghost shrimp and thanks for not disclosing my ghost shrimp spot in Navarre where there is an infinite supply! Lol

[@BeardedBrad92]

I actually did say where they are over there, then when I was editing, I was like yahhhh gonna take that out 😂

[@lloydhill9150]

In Australia we call it a Yabby, best found at low tide in tidal creeks. If you have plenty left over from fishing you can preserve them by dipping them into boiling water with a high sugar content then freeze them or refrigerate if using the next day. Metholated spirits is also good for preserving beach worms. Put worms in a jar of Metho and keep in fridge for the week or drain and freeze.

[@BeardedBrad92]

Awesome! I’ll have to try that!

[@lloydhill9150]

@@BeardedBrad92 dip them for about 5 seconds or so.

[@evanherrera5948]

Wtf thanks man lol

[@Dragon-Slay3r]

Bank holiday?🤣🙀

[@lynnwarren6127]

Free bait!!! Woohoo!

[@davidmcdonald654]

A cousin of mine in Cape Breton once had one like yours and used it for razor clams in the Bay of Fundy.

[@BeardedBrad92]

That’s pretty cool!

[@nooneinparticular4357]

I would always do this at low tide because it makes it a lot easier to get them

[@user-ej7ur8gl4t]

You should pump it directly into a colender and itll wash the sand away and keep the yabbie in the colender. We call them yabbies/nippers here in Australia

[@mikeschiffmann3708]

Great channel Bearded Brad. Enjoyed this video and how to make the pump. We typically go to St George Island the 2nd weekend in October every year. I usually catch sand fleas, but do you think ghost shrimp are in the gulf beach on SGI? If so, how do you typically like to hook them? Thanks

[@BeardedBrad92]

They are in the Gulf, they’re here in Alabama, I know they’re in Navarre but I’m not positive if they’re in SGI. I’m posting a video today that will show you how you need to hook them to keep them on the hook

[@whateverdudefishin]

I made two pumps from you videos. Only had 2 opportunities, first time I struck out and second time I only caught small ones. Are there optimal conditions or time of year or any particulars to catching them. Thanks

[@kerrydeshotels9691]

I’ve yet to pump or use ghost shrimp. Gonna try on beach trip next month!

[@BeardedBrad92]

It’s an awesome bait!

[@dwaynekirk1051]

Caught lots of sheepshead Where in Florida any fort Myers

[@blakewarren658]

Great video

[@BeardedBrad92]

Thanks! Well do some fishing next month!

[@TamDTran]

What’s park you catch the ghost shrimp in the video sir ?

[@michaeltaylor4984]

I wonder how well this would work on crayfish.

[@Dragon-Slay3r]

With 4 fingers and a huge oval eye

[@bradpriester3297]

Great video . We fish St George island in the state park every April do you know if there are ghost shrimp there.

[@BeardedBrad92]

I am not sure. You will just have to look around and see if you can find any of the mounds in the sand

[@wadepatton2433]

Didja find any?

[@kylemiller9806]

I made two pumps from your video and a couple other similar videos on youtube. when I visited the coast recently I couldn't get them to work for the life of me. The test plug rubber was either too tight for me to pull or too loose to create any suction. Any trouble shooting tips?

[@BeardedBrad92]

There’s usually a sweet spot between too tight and too loose. It does take a little bit of force to be able to get the suction.

[@michaeleverton4882]

I have hand made my washer system for my plastic bait suction pumps, also called prawn pumps here; and the Australian Alvey steel pumps. I have experimented with various washer materials. They have Extremely Strong Suction Power, which is what I want! 🦐

[@ryantran5660]

There everywhere!! Even in a car?!?

[@clotwell]

Where do you get that elastic thread to tie on your shrimp?

[@BeardedBrad92]

You can get it on amazon. Miracle thread

[@glennbrown3420]

Made my ghost shrimp pump

[@BeardedBrad92]

Awesome!

[@fishesfromtupperware]

If you’re by yourself would dumping the pump into a sand flea rake work to let the sand wash out leaving the shrimp?

[@BeardedBrad92]

Yes you could do that

[@rclover33]

where did you get the elastic thread? thank you!

[@BeardedBrad92]

I got it a local tackle shop in Gulf Shores, but you can find it on amazon as well

[@BeardedBrad92]

Miracle thread

[@michaeleverton4882]

"gost cotton!" 🙂👻🙂

[@kevinwest4488]

interesting... here, they lay within muddy shores... the same concept with an shrimp sucker tube..

[@kevinwest4488]

oddly enough, they are called sand shrimp..

[@ryeckley7267]

Ghost Shrimp,,,never caught one. Are they good to eat? Like fry or boil

[@BeardedBrad92]

I don’t know anyone that has tried eating them, but they’re great bait for surf fishing!

[@wadepatton2433]

Edible bait is a great thing. A survival tool (and can be tasty. I'll bet they taste a bit like mole crabs.

[@brantduncan1]

Made one today.. inflation.. lol.. $34 total.. Home Depot..

[@googan88]

Does this bait work year round? I don’t see y’all using ghost shrimp as often as other baits.

[@BeardedBrad92]

I will still use it year around to try to find those pompano that are still around. This bait works well for everything though. I’ve caught a lot of black drum and red fish on ghost shrimp as well.

[@GolferBeachBum]

do you need a fishing license? how much will fishermen pay for them?

[@BeardedBrad92]

I’ve never heard of anyone selling ghost shrimp.

[@possibledreams186]

In Texas, you need to be licensed for salt water fishing. Limit is 20 per licensee, per day.

[@GarrettToTheCarrot]

You can’t catch more than 20 or else it’s illegal btw. They don’t want them to be endangered
