SOLO Beach CAMPING and FISHING! (East Matagorda)

[@TreasuringLife]

I love that you're apologizing to the turtle as he's swimming away...I'd do the same exact thing. Great channel. I have a solo skiff on order and can't wait to get on the water with it. I've been fishing from my kayak for about 16 years now, finally time for an upgrade.

[@bradmetcalf5333]

So awesome to see a fellow outdoorsman legitimately concerned for the wildlife. Love your videos man thanks for the uploads.

I think that turtle was either a loggerhead or a Kemp's Ridley. Kind of hard to tell from a distance.

Thank you so much!

[@snakesurfcustomfishingrods5821]

Like your videos but you caught Matagorda in a pretty much once in a lifetime condition on the beach. It is usually chocolate brown water and if you drive down to Mitchel's cut and the wind picks up out of the east to the south then the tide washes up to the dunes and can catch you there. You will have to make the whole trip back almost up in the dunes a lot of the way. My wife and I used to make the drive and camp out at Mitchel's cut back in the 80s and 90s. At certain times of the year there is a phosphorescence in the water and at night you can go out there and play in the glowing surf. Cool vids, keep them coming.

[@bettahookem1802]

How’d I miss this video? I’ve watched all of them but yet here’s one I missed.

[@nFlames2]

10 sec. after you cast a good red fish that's Matagorda keep it a secret. When fishing Mitchell's cut fish on the beach side of the cut, on an out going tide. The current curves to the south & will bring the bait with it caught lots of Bull Red & slots at that point. Best time to drive out there is in a low tide Then plan to stay the night. Its rough trying to drive out of there at sunset or in the dark too many stumps & they are hard to see. The wave action/sea mist at night is like a dense fog at night. I us cut mullet & just let it soak come back every 30 min to ck the bait.

Kagen Fishing......just asking, when you do those solo overnight fishing at the beach do carry or conceal a firearm? It's nice solo fishing during the day but overnight fishing in a decent area kinda spooky.

[@KagenFishing]

Jst ROM yes I have my CHL license. It is a little spooky but sleeping in the jeep makes me feel more safe than just out in a tent.

[@jstrom3007]

@@KagenFishing It's good that you have one, I don't solo overnight fishing these days, safer back in the 1980s. Overnight fishing I'd rather do it with family and friends. Be careful out there, tight lines.

Most Reds you catch in the surf in late spring feed between the 1st & 2nd gut.

it depends where you are camping but for the most part you do not need any permit or anything to camp on the beach.

[@TheGreenKnight70]

With the surf so calm I would have launched right there at the jetty and worked all around the rocks . The water is getting too cold for super skinny water fishing

[@KagenFishing]

Kccacio I agree with you. I should have but I also knew that I had a long way down the beach and i didn’t want to make a trip down a beach I have never been down before in the dark.

[@ifishforfoodnottrophys7483]

This time of year the game fish are in the dark mud

You went pretty far down huh?

As far as I could down the beach to the inlet.

Rojo Cuevas I don’t think you could get one all the way down the beach. It’s about a 20 miles beach drive with uneven shell and loose sand. If you RV has 4wd then maybe but ground clearance may still be an issue.
