How to Read The Beach - An Aerial View Over the Surf (Surf Fishing)

A modern take on reading the beach for surf fishing. Here I compiled all my drone footage i took while surf fishing with obvious beach structure and made a very simple how to read the beach video. The drone footage really gives it a modern and effective way to learn how to read the beach fishing. I feel as if this make is much easier to learn what to look for when you're reading the beach while surf fishing.
Surf fishing can be very hard, there are multiple surf fishing aspects that one needs to know before beach fishing. Beach fishing is also extremely exciting and random, you never know what youre gonna catch while surf fishing. Be careful though, beach fishing can be dangerous, always wear pfd while surf fishing.

I like this guys usage of "Elite AF"

[@BeachBomberFishing]

Lmao thanks!!

[@OutsidewithTom]

This was a great video. As a guy from Iowa with zero surf fishing experience, I found this to be a great basic explanation of some typical beach contours. Well done. 👍

[@romanmartinez9282]

Thanks! Sometimes I forget to really study the beach structure because I just want to start casting. It really takes discipline and patience.

[@eagleviewhd]

As a scuba diver, we also would study the surf patterns when making a dive from the beach. It was critical on making safe entries and exits out of the water. Riptides could give you a nice ride out to deeper water, but made exiting the water much harder or dangerous.

Could you do a beach structure video from the surf? Specifically what holes and cuts look like from eye level.

[@BeachBomberFishing]

Good idea, ill see what I can do.

[@BeachBomberFishing]

Hmm mm, I just might

[@stevenvogel4525]

Thanks the content dude. I’ve been fishing fresh all my life, but since moving to Houston have wanted to learn more about how to fish salt. Your videos have been super helpful!

[@shawnweed265]

Great analysis. Out GA way, most of our Islands are undeveloped and have no access to them except by boat. So we anchor off the surfline and cast inwards at the inlets and beaches. We call it reverse surf fishing. Your description of the shore dynamic is accurate.

[@NorthwestAdventurerNWA]

I learned a lot about the Cuts & Holes from your video and I'll look for them on my next trip to Ocean Shores. Your channel Rocks!

[@josephkoia9404]

Love your videos thanks for the tips started to read the sea were holes the break ,it's so true .got my kids involved and now they are loving it catching mullets

[@KennyFishbone]

Great info! My father taught me about the GUT and looking for structure. He'd walk by other fishermen til he saw the right place!. Pull in fish until the seagulls (other fishermen) swarmed us. Then move...and do it again!

[@myungkwak0311]

This is hands down the best video on reading the surf. Excellent job

[@totalnoobfishing1753]

Aerial view adds a dynamic that makes this much more understandable than most other vids shot at eye level. Great job.. just landed one more SUB

[@user-ho5vz5tg3r]

I have tried to explain this to people for years and I guess that they just don't see it. You are absolutely correct about never getting wet and the water being dangerous. I have seen some Big Ass Sharks in 2ft of water!

[@f.w.afishing4570]

Hey man I was srf a year and a half ago I saw this video for the first time....I didn't understand it.... However I've been surf fishing more in the last couple months.... I saw this video and it made so much more sense... Thanks

[@md-ln4fp]

Even if I didn't fish the education itself is beneficial. Thanks for another great fishing video.

[@josevillalobos2505]

Wow no one I follow had ever explained anything in such detail thank you 🙏 . I will try to apply it here in Cali.

[@delmonicofarquhar9893]

Good video! I agree that reading the beaches as you suggest is really critical to optimizing your time on the beach. Thank you!

[@ericnorton4045]

WOW moved to Florida 4 years ago from Tennessee and love to fish and had no idea about this. Salt water is so different from where I come from.

[@luisduran3391]

The BREAKAWAY CANNON LET’S ME HIT THE 2nd bar! But yes true lots of fish in the 1st cut I usually throw 2 rods one far and one shallow! True facts

[@billybass4189]

Good info overall, my preference is behind the bar usually but I'll start looking more at the cuts now.

[@topicsabouteverything6166]

Good explanation...went today with my family and kids.. and I must say this place carrys..strong energys..must be a lot of people has die..from back decades..and recently... great video stay safe

[@pmf1408]

Great video. I now understand the terminology and can see from the aerial view what you’re talking about. How can you see these fishing spots from the ground if you don’t have a drone?

[@ronmb81]

[@TheNDex]

thank you for the detailed explanation, really visual with the aerial view. bless up

[@micbarca9777]

Best explanation I've heard yet. Great job!

[@jejoko]

5:16 If you see square waves like these stay out of the water. Do not wade. That is an indication of very dangerous tide conditions. Also small boats/kayaks especially those without great stability can be easily capitalized in those conditions. Stay safe.

[@p3teytran]

What causes these square waves?

[@x7shadow429]

2 bays meeting but I'm not sure

[@m.antoinette3410]

Very informative. I just got into Surf fishing so this is awesome info. It’s just that how do you see these things when you’re standing on a beach do you have to have a drone to find these areas? Can you see them I am 5 foot six would I see them from the shore?🤔

[@BeachBomberFishing]

It is still opener to the public.

[@tedleyreynolds5541]

He explained how to detect cuts and holes from eye level, there will be less breaking waves in a section. If the waves seem to be breaking more often along one stretch of bar/submerged bar that is a particular surf break so to speak and you should be able to discern the lack thereof. You might find deeper cuts next to or at either end of that breaking surf zone. Often times if you study the way the water moves along any area of breakers, you may visibly notice the water moving away from shore, that's a channel, often times that channel presents what they call a rip current. For predator fish, that's a supermarket.

[@maumau3391]

good morning, very good your explanation where to find the fish. I always fished a lot, most of the time I fished a lot on Copacabana beach in Rio Rio de Janeiro (I think you might know or hear about it) I fished a lot in the afternoon or at night and caught a lot of porridge, and a delicious fish. unfortunately I was robbed and my equipment is in the car☹️. But I hope that as soon as possible I can buy my fishing equipment. Fishing is a therapy, while you wait for the fish to bite, you relax and think about life lol. I'll stay here and I'll follow you on your videos.🐟🐟🎣💪🤝👍.

[@beaulaird6693]

Would appreciate some quick advice... just bought a penn fierce 3 4000, 7 ft 6 rod. If I'm making my way out beyond the first bar am I going to ruin my reel after it gets dunked? New to surf fishing so not dropping top dollar, but don't want to burn my money either

[@BeachBomberFishing]

Well, im my opinion, when one goes cheap, they will eventually pay 'top dollar.' If you dunk that reel, you will end up messing it up. You'll have to take it apart to clean it out. If you can afford to, but a daiwa bg, tsunami shield. Both of those reels are around 100 bucks and can take a dunk.

Def right about big fish being in the wade gut sometimes. Was at Galveston east beach when a school a jacks made a run down the beach just pass the 1st sandbar. I actually got a run before my line snapped lol smh. Later found out they were being chased by a 12 foot hammerhead who was cruising in the wade gut who was caught just before they passed by.
