[@savage22bolt32]

Yeah, I loved it!

[@jamesjennings8574]

As did I. One time I was playing out in the surf and felt a little fish nibble on my foot. It freaked me out at first, but then saw the little guy swim away quickly after realizing I am not edible... at least to that little guy. I had wished I had a camera attached to my ankles.

Many years ago, vacation on Grand Cayman. Rented a villa on the North Shore, right on the beach. Coral reef about 200 yards out, water about 15 feet deep inside the reef. My brother-in-law and I fished and snorkeled. I could actually watch as fish interacted with his bait, bit, got hooked, fought, etc. Amazing to see that, especially in such crystal clear water. Also took a short walk to Cayman Kai, where I hooked the only bonefish in my life. Took off like a lightning bolt. Broke my line in seconds. My drag was set too tight. I couldnt believe the speed of that thing.

That water is beautiful. Also, those lady fish are so pretty they're transparent looking..very cool to see this perspective. I live in Maine, and we don't have beautiful surf fish like this. Also, I've never heard of a circle hook, I don't fish all that often, but I've really been thinking about picking it up again like I used to. Thanks for this!

[@MrChazz10]

I think they're more reflective than anything and only appear transparent because they reflect the surrounding light back, which just blends them into the background.

Awesome video with some crazy footage! Although, I'm pretty sure those gar were actually members of the halfbeak family, a Ballyhoo or a Balao, simply as the caudal fin is forked rather than truncate. I'd love to see more stuff like this for sure!

[@subblegum]

The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel kzbin.infoUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.

[@sidewaysrain7609]

What camera did you use to film this interesting video?

[@erisQ23]

They are often compared to cone snails, which are known to be highly venomous, but Olive snails are not dangerous.

[@TimAndrews-nb9zs]

Be very afraid. My diarrhea friend had two attach to his scrotum while taking multiple shits in the ocean due to unfamiliar bacteria in his guts from eating at a street taco stand. He stood waist deep, naked except for a towel around his neck to wipe the salty sweat profusely pouring from his head, while streams of hot, wet diarrhea shot violently out of his ass, over and over until his sphincter, bright red from blood and over exertion collapsed under the strain. For 16 hours he stood there, a solitary figure with only his thoughts and regrets for company and a tattletale murky brown cloud of shitwater surfacing every little while only to be pushed to the beach by the rolling surf. When all was said and done and he was back on dry land towelling his 305lb of blubber off, we noticed 2 olive snails attached to his nutsac. But that’s a whole other story.

Beautiful! We used to spend summers in old Naples, Fl before it become well known and we had the beach to ourselves…. We collected so many different shells and my favorite was the olive.

Nice! Thanks.

[@Side85Winder]

I love how you have floats on your droppers to keep them off the bottom. To me it looks like the fish either can not see your bait or are just not interested in what your serving to them. I would love to see what we call a snatcher hook on your rig. It's a hook with tinsel tied to the shaft, they flash and shimmer. You add bait to them like a normal hook, the added flash really makes the fish see it and investigate. You can tie your own there very simple to make.

[@CA-lf7jt]

Thank you! I cannot get enough of these!!!

[@nathanmorkovsky2855]

Awesome info!! Keep them coming 🎣

[@Wood-In-My-Eye]

So a little tip. They can see the gear. They can see it all. Depending on how hungry they are depends if they hit it. Small tackle rewards more fish. Always. Also fluorocarbon. So important. Natural looking is best. I once had a friend from Fl. That could catch fish in a mud puddle. I miss fishing. I had a tricked jet ski that I fished off in Cape Canaveral so much fun!! Tight lines you beautiful people!!!

[@TonyEnglandUK]

[@DanAcondaOutdoors]

Incredible footage, bud! Just earned a new sub! This was really helpful 😊

[@dhm7815]

I live on Atlantic coast. Seeing just a few feet under is such a revelation.

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

Very interesting. Down here in New Zealand we often get water around the off-shore islands that is so clear, you can see the fish 25 to 30 feet down, around your bait. And I used to put lines down, then if the fish were not biting, put the aquascope over the side and watch the bait. And MANY MANY times I saw there were plenty of fish approaching the bait, and doing what your pompano did, looking right at the swivel, sinker and hook from inches away, and then swimming off, coming back and looking again, and swimming off again.. So I made a tube to deliver cut bait straight to the seabed, it ran down a monofilament and popped open at the bottom. And I tested a couple of times, put down normal lines with bait and hooks and sinkers, watch fish swim up and inspect the rig and not be interested, then delivered bait pieces right beside my rig, and the SAME FISH that refused the same bait because it saw a hook/sinker, snatched up the cut bait without the gear instantly. Then swam back to the hook, looked at it, and swam off. They certainly get wary of the hook and sinker.

[@cicatrace]

Evolution happening right before our eyes. Imagine how many billions of fishes we caught using the same techniques, surely at some point fish will adapt... atleast a little bit

[@salmonnnnman]

​@@cicatraceI don't think it's an explicit evolutionary adaption. Fish are far far smarter than they are given credit for

[@secretsquirrel6308]

Oh sure. You're saying fish are smarter than deer? After all this time, deer still stand in front of moving cars.

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

The snapper in the Hauraki gulf, the large expanse of water near our largest city, have evolved to mature earlier then they did just 40 years ago, and now they grow quickly up to 25 centimeters, then their growth slows markedly, so instead of jumping over 30 Cms the next year, they take two or three years to get from 25 to 30. We have a size limit, for the last few decades, of around 30 Cms. Most people obey it, you lose your boat, ALL your fishing gear, the trailer and car if you took the boat to the water on them, if you get caught with just one under size fish. So the fish SEEM to have evolved to stay small, and have definitely evolved to mature to breeding as much as a year earlier. They are still researching the effect, so it isn't certain. @@cicatrace

[@salmonnnnman]

@@secretsquirrel6308 not sure who this is directed at but fish behaviour in response to fishing tackle and spearfisherman has been studied and it shows, for example, that fish know who is spearfishing and who isn't and adjust their behaviour accordingly

Howzit FISHGUM!! Aloha from Hawai'i. Love your fishcam videos--keep em coming please. I wish all our fish over here were as generous with biting the hooks as they are in your vids. I just started a channel recently with footage from my fishcam also. We have a harder time using it out here in the islands --though between rocky reef snags, a multitude of baitstealers, strong rip currents, hawaiian sea turtle hook ups, and the lingering threat of hungry tiger sharks -it is challenging. I've just begun to dive my fishcam and bait out and drop it in deeper water just because it's harder to cast the fishcam plus the heavier lead really far out. I've got some interesting footage for sure. Keep doing what you do and I'll be watching for sure. Aloha!

[@bobh1208]

A world of creatures sticking their heads in the sand about the disastrous effects of industrial agriculture on sea life is far uglier, as it increasingly feeds toxic blooms of blue-green algae that make their way to the coasts, and which are a non-graceful (de-evolutionary), non-exciting way to die, if ever there was one. Also, WE probably wouldn't even be here, as homo sapiens, if our ancestors hadn't eaten the brains of other creatures' kills as the plains opened up in Africa, providing "us" with enough fat and energy surplus to grow larger brains. We're not made of plants... unless we want to de-volve.
