I Fished the PIER for Kings but THIS is Better!! **NEW Species**

[@reb0706]

What I love about Beach Bum is watching him become a better fisherman. Reminds me of thresher. Keep it up!

[@leerutherford4910]

Spread the word let's get Beach Bum to 100k or more by the end of this year or sooner

[@drkrm]

If I could subscribe more than once for Matt, believe me, I would.

[@shoua50]

100k, no sir we need to get him past Angler Up. That would cool

[@quinney1141]

I’ve been watching him for a hot minute and if I didn’t see this comment I would’ve never known I wasn’t subbed you’re a stud

[@scottmichael3745]

I'm on it!!!

[@bryanmilstid4087]

I agree, most underrated fishing channel on the Tube.

[@digidanshow]

Caught a 62 pound amberjack while king fishing off Long Beach Pier (NC). It emptied a Penn JigMaster on three different runs. Largest non-shark caught that year.

[@ricwatkins1437]

Matt you grunt more than anyone i have ever fished with, and i am 71. I love it, and i love your vids and your attitude! Awesome family.Your girls are beautiful and so are you. Keep the vids coming.

[@abebowling146]

My daughter and son in law lived just across the bridge from that pier. I loved going to visit I would fish until 11am beach it the afternoon and fish again until 11pm (closing of pier).

[@carrieeasley3995]

I love watching you fish. You probably get more excited than any of the other fishermen/women that I watch. Keep your enthusiasm real!

[@natereinert7344]

Awesome vid man! I had a bluefish take my rod over and drag it around down the navarre pier and bite someone else's bait and i got my rod back, but my reel was trashed. Was a great story tho

[@georgedoesstuff170]

That's a great story!! I lost my ultra light rig to a Carp yesterday!! LOL I did NOT get my rod back!

[@larrytischler570]

Use a conventional reel with a decent bait clicker and set the drag lightly enough to hook the fish. Tie the rod to the rail with a cord through a harness lug or a ring in the rod clamp. Dont have real salt water tackle? Get some. These are fighting fish.

[@stevencalson7375]

I served as suf fishing guide for my daughter in Panama City beach Sunday morning. Glad I still had my north face jacket in the truck for my daughter. BTW, waterlands allowed me to see the 32”+ redfish swimming within 50’ of shore inless than waist deep water. Small piece of shrimp finally get it in on last cast of the day. Her first time surf fishing

[@longrider42]

Back in 84 when I was fishing off the piers in Southern California, I never used lures, strictly bait fishing. I used 30 to 40 pound mono main line and often a steel leader. We had guys with nets and I had a rope gaff but these where never needed unless you caught something really heavy. Which off those piers was unlikely. I do envy you, I'm in Wyoming and I still fish, but for trout and maybe catfish or carp, but that's about it. Have a good one. P.S. we often used Penn level wind conventional reels of one sort or another. And of course heavy rods.

[@larrytischler570]

Rose lenses work best for those days when the sky is somewhat hazey and the water is clear. They make it much easier to see a fish to hook or land when looking toward the sun in those conditions. Blue or green are for clear sky days.

[@jossenbella]

We are currently vacationing in Navarre. We love it so much that we visit three times a year. I have been surf fishing about 1/2 mile east of the pier. Neat to see you out here. I actually recognized your surrounding for once.

[@DH-un9el]

I Caught a 25 lb Cobia on a deep sea fishing trip a couple of years ago! It was a great fight! Was good for dinner too!

[@davidk4940]

There is a pier underneath the Golden Gate Bridge near Fort Point (the Civil War fort under the south side of the bridge). Sometimes great fishing, other times, just the view is inspiring.

[@justsomerandommfer]

This is my town! I didn't know you come out here! That's awesome!

[@davidlittle4948]

Nice cobra, congratulations! Nice jack, too.

[@clintbailey8220]

Nice to see Navarre beach hooking it up.

[@jamesnelms1653]

Congratulations on catching one of the baby monsters. There so strong.

[@peabodymartin5201]

Caught some kings on a charter out of murrells inlet sc yesterday. Got soooooo seasick but it was worth it when I got home and took those filets off the grill. Cobia looks like a fun catch.

[@MRR-qv3bw]

I bet the Spanish Mackerel are out there to! You have got to try a gold with pink head Gotcha. Ive caught all kinds of things with it but I King fish with an anchor rod and a 4 alt reel!

[@josephdisselkamp2586]

Love the change of pace, and new adventures!

[@chrissewell1608]

We tried Cobia on a cruise, several years ago. (And loved it.) Their menu called it Black Salmon. I asked the foreign waiter, what fish it actually was, since there is no such salmon. (You can't B.S. any real angler, about their fish!) After a minute, he replied that it was Cobia. We tried it, and even my wife loved it too! Not sure when they are in season, but I would definitely be keeping those good eats! 🐟😁

[@garyjackson355]

Great job Bama can’t wait to see you catcher a big king

[@mattgarland1776]

Cant wait to hit them beaches or piers this summer? You and the other guys have made me choose where I'm going on vacation. Always a sick video

[@timothyadams278]

Man those are some nice fish you caught today. That cobia was nice man. Congrats on the new species of fish

[@monkeyman4131]

Nice going Matt . Adding a new species ta yer list . Seems yer well on the way too the 100K yer looking for . Great videos like you post should be no problem . Take care now . Tom Daytona Beach, FL. 24, August 2021 .

[@AkeemJA15]

Got skunked on the State pier in Gulf Shores , & Fairhope this weekend hopefully next time I go home I come back home it a be better ... Nice catch by the way

[@edwardlandry291]

Snook in Fort Meyers and Cobia in Navarre! Are you the Florida Beach Bum, now? I’ll follow your vids wherever the fish take you!

[@chriswincek8672]

As soon as you said "going for kings but new species" i knew it was going to be a Cobia. Congrats. Good eating!

[@abebowling146]

Hey beach bum I've been in and out of the hospital for a month so fishing has been rough however your videos keep me going and my head high keep the good work up man🤘🎣

[@scottmichael3745]

You do you! You got this! Sending Gods love and my prayers.

[@pavsoccer10]

the fish blitzes at the piers are crazy!

[@gatormc4838]

I took a friend night fishing on the county pier in pcb. He got so cold he jumped in the trash can to get warm. That made my trip worth it, lol. Congrats on cobia! Sooo jealous, lol

[@josephcielaszyk863]

If you’re going to be in the okaloosa/destin area 6/5-6/12 I would love to join you on a pier adventure. We usually fish okaloosa or PCB and have good luck with kings!

[@AJRay-db1dr]

That was 2 big fish my friend that's the first cobia I've seen that size and those Jack's seem to be very exciting I need to hook up on one maybe next week when we go on vac i will wish you the best bama looking for more surf fishing my friend

[@ivanhenriquez8455]

You want jack you should go to okaloosa pier for jacks there blowing up like crazy on a cobia jig ! Huge fan btw

[@johnmarklee9297]

My favorite place! I have a place down there and I love the pier so much

[@bqoutdoors2334]

What rods were you using? Great cob 🤙🏼

[@larrytischler570]

29 is a baby. They do look smaller than they are. My PB was 7 over the 37" Texas mininum in one night. Now raised the minimum.

[@dennis4077]

Great Job.... Enjoy the Pier Fishing...👍👍👍👍🕷

[@hardstepps]

Awesome job man. One tip for the piers. You could really benefit from a one piece 9 foot. Much better backbone and a hell of a lot more control. Would highly recommend a good custom.

[@mikebojtor]

Man dude you just been knocking them out lately good for you brother glad you had a good time have a great holiday

[@gsmudz87]

Hope to see you surf fishing alont the Navarre Beach area sometime. That would be some great vids seeing you doing that.

[@michaelheppner5204]

Let me know next time you’re in Navarre! I would love to fish with you.

[@davidzellers3537]

I love to fish Pensacola beach pier for kings in August!

[@stephencorbett4425]

Awesome Pier. Great Cobia catch regardless of size. You got him. Might have to break out the pier rods on the next trip.

[@billgagnon4670]

[@scottmichael3745]

Yes it is! I love those episodes too!

[@puddlepusher3058]

Absolutely love this video. That's the only beach I vacation to. Will be there in September!! And hopefully catch some fish to man. Love your channel bro keep them coming!

[@stripermanly]

Cobia are so cool and powerful. I fought one and the only one I’ve ever tangled with for 45 minutes being dragged for 2.2 miles on the gps. Not net and no gaff on the boat and just eventually opened up the hole that hook was in and came off. Had it up to the boat several times. #15 test is too light to fight a 45+ inch one

[@lynndaws9259]

Love Navarre...live there and it's gorgeous!

I love Navarre bro most laid back pier in the panhandle. Congratulations on the Cobia. If you really want a king go to Panama City and fish the city pier at daybreak.

[@ricklarouche4105]

You need to find a deal on a small boat, motor, and trailer, it would definitely up your game..maybe ask the viewers?

Congratulations on your first Cobia they taste delicious

[@btwh007]

Enjoy your videos. You mentioned you have 260,000 miles on your vehicle that's great. What kind it is so I can get one that will hold up like that? Thanks Tim

[@jerimydeloach1556]

What are your set ups for the pier? I'm interested in how different people have differences in rods, reels, line, lures, and terminal tackle

[@hdoutdoors6088]

I fish the pier all the time my big setup is a van staal 275 on a custom rainshadow revelation 8,10 rod great for tarpon cobia and kings

[@comfortablynumb9342]

Cobia are one of my all time favorites to catch and eat. They fight. And taste great! Hopefully you'll get to catch more and eat one. Get there early, at sunrise, and use live bait for kings. I never caught them past 8 or 9, they seem to bite early.

[@royvincent9250]

ive hit them a couple times just before dark

[@comfortablynumb9342]

@@royvincent9250 true, they will bite just before dark too. I never caught them like that because we took the boat out early to avoid the wind chop so I was rarely offshore in the evening. I've caught 2 cobia at night, but never a kingfish.
