[@hodgepodgeoutdoors]

Your channel is becoming one of my favorites to watch. Congrats on the big trout bro.

[@offkilterfishing]

Thank you kindly sir.

[@Pdawg-gp7sp]

Awesome Captain , you earned that one !! Tight Lines 🐟🐟🐟

[@mikeknottscreek8183]

What a day to be out on the water! You fellas loaded up and that Gator was intense!

[@hookedupfishinghardhitta]

Wow... what a trout man. New spot is a good one. 🎣🎣🎣💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@jaybee006]

Awesome as always! Dudley's has sure changed a lot.

[@jamescoltrain4113]

Haters gonna hate! If everyone stopped trout fishing for a year the nc game and fish would still screw it up. Congrats on an absolutely awesome trout.

[@ronalddills4566]

Awesome day on the water. Congratulations on the gator trout. You have taught me a lot. Caught my first Sheepshead , black drum , and Tog this year . All because of your videos 😊

[@Thefishingproverb]

That black drum sounds is pretty awesome! Good fishing!

[@weekender38]

Slaying them. Heck of a day!

[@dennisreynolds5199]

Great video and congratulations on the trout!!!

[@quintenbradford418]

Down in my neck of the woods happy to see it

[@yankeeredneck6017]

Good gracious son that is a gorgeous trout. Thank goodness he was hooked good. Happy for ya!

[@offkilterfishing]

6/0 circle in the jaw, 100 pound power pro with 80 pound leader. He wasn't getting off. Still can't believe he ate a mullet head...

[@yankeeredneck6017]

@@offkilterfishing in my experience mostly with stripers up north, the bigger fish hang below the young guys which are dropping pieces of fish their tearing up and pick those up. He saw an easy meal floating by and grabbed it. Kinda like me. I’m living off SS waiting for my son with his boat to call me to go fishing and I just reel fish in and he does the work.😂🤣

[@jasoncunningham5082]

Nice gator bro!! Can't wait to catch one like that on a top water..

[@SlackTidesFishing]

You ever wanna hit the marsh or bridges in the Swansboro/Ab area let me know. I’ll put you on some good trout too in the fall.

[@fishinggods]

congrats on the surprise gator trout. Ya'll silent giggles made me laugh. I'd get a fiberglass mount of the trout if I were you. Sounds like a fish of a lifetime where you're from.

[@bencartrett4867]

Damn monster trout. Good catch.

[@FishingwithBrewski]

Nice fish! Very solid weight for that length. For the record though, New River sucked really bad the last 2 years. All the guides and most locals fished the Neuse all fall and winter.

[@252chase]

I think next fall/ winters trout fishing is gonna be crazy good bc so many big fish survived up neuse and pamlico.

[@goat.sharkin]

Congrats on the first citation man! Gotta get up and fish that bridge with you in the fall, it can be insane!

[@offkilterfishing]

Thanks, I rarely fish for trout so this was a big surprise for sure. That is what makes fishing so much fun!

[@battlebornpyro8567]

Such an awesome catch! Wow!

[@sgtz113ang]

my fav weekday bridge ! SF ! your moving your studio up my way lately....hope to meet you 1 day. thanks OK

[@cjhardy8970]

Awesome video, I went to this same location about 4 years ago without a boat and caught a bunch of pin fish! Now I have a boat and we plan on crushing them like you! Question how do you know all these hot spots? From Morehead, to Topsail, to Sneads Ferry etc!

[@offkilterfishing]

I grew up here, been fishing this area since the 80's. RIP Scotch Bonnet Pier, Sportsman's Pier, Iron Steamer Pier, Indian Beach Pier, Continental Shelf Head Boat. Season bottom fishing pier pass $20, children under 12 free, free parking. Simpler times...

[@NCsurfer607]

Need to make an mudcrab stone crab comparison because I went to island near bogue air field and seemed like every crab I found had an lil purple in there claws at least over 50 count so I threw them back and grabbed fiddler crabs .

[@offkilterfishing]

Check out my "WORTH THE WAIT" video, I do a comparison of the two at the beginning. Mud Crabs have purple claws quite often, stone crabs have purple striped legs and spots on their back.

[@NCsurfer607]

@@offkilterfishing 10 4 I check it out

[@majorrhodes2870]

Nice trout brother😲 yes i would have eat it too. 😂👍👍

[@johnhargrove6535]

If I caught one that big I would mount it!

[@timothyminch443]

which bridge is that?

[@joshbekah4755]

Nice trout brotha. My pb trout is at 28. Hopefully we can snag a bigger one one day 👊💪

[@offkilterfishing]

World Record is over 17 pounds so there is much room to improve. It's all about that chase...

[@kenshamrock7395]

Caught a 8.26 pounder back in January. It really didn't taste all that good, the smaller ones are better to eat. Still waiting for the state to send my citation.

[@jasonctate]

It takes about a year

[@JW-qr4hn]

Awesome trout! How many sheepshead citations did you catch last year? I bet a bunch!

[@dooliedegruchy376]

Mr. Kilter, Can you give me an idea where I can find Mud Crabs and / or sea urchins ? I have looked by the Harkers Island shrimp fleet dock at low tide and in the back of the island on the grass flats and jetty barriers agin at low tide. I prefer getting my own bait if I can , I just have a 16' skiff and am only looking for dinner for my wife and me. Getting tired of Spanish Macks plus they don't keep. Thanks Ken

[@dexteravent2850]

I use live pinfish for the big trout

[@orlandogardener]

Awesome video

[@jeffreyswanson227]

You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it....

[@baccoff3308]

Nice video!

[@FollowMeFishin]

How long have you been making youtube content? I'm a local and love the content 🎉

[@rockyriveroutdoors9229]

What's the deal with weird hand slap stuff?

[@19oxendine87]

Dude what is the name of the bridge you be catching the sheepshead under in nc

[@HizzyH1Z1]

Buddy needs to be a little quicker with that net 😂

[@lipbustersfishing7425]

Hey do you do fishing charters?

[@leehowell4258]

Nice Trout! Core Creek?

[@JW-qr4hn]

Nope

[@JW-qr4hn]

Looks like Cape Carteret bridge

[@ralphpratt9671]

Trying to figure out the river? Not Swansboro. bridges.

[@garyleppla9314]

What hook are u using?

[@michaeltaylor4984]

I could go for sheeper on the half shell

[@jamesmacfarlane3196]

[@caneanguidry3581]

Bruh you bumped your mf head for keeping a trout that size,they not even good to eat,smfh,your buisness but I can’t believe you killed a trout that big,first and last video I’ll watch of yours

[@offkilterfishing]

It was delicious, 1/2 used for hot and sour soup, 1/2 poached and used for fish salad with pickle relish. I am not going to keep any more big ones because they are breeders, I get that, but chill...

[@FishingwithBrewski]

Everybody kills their first big one. I can promise you our local guides and comm fishermen kill more like that one in a month than any of us will kill in a lifetime. Nice fish man.

[@secretjourney4815]

wahhhhh the state says its ok, but you say its not ok. wahhh wahh wahh.. you got a degree in marine biology bruh???

[@jasonctate]

I knew there would be a George Costanza marine biologist scolding for eating that gator.

[@scottyrock810]

I'm personally glad they are starting to tighten up on limits. It's the "fill the freezer" guys that's the problem. This dude keeps everything he catches. He would literally have to cook fish 6 nights a week to keep it from being freezer burnt.
