Micro-fishing Creeks for a NEW SPECIES (Lifelisting)

[@hookedinfloridafishing2561]

the small hook reminds me of extreme philly fishing

[@grandstrandangler8129]

yup, I took inspiration from him about 7 years ago and got into micro-fishing.

[@atravers349]

Nice video! Keep it up; its good for your soul! I started micro fishing a couple years ago. It is so relaxing, and really gets you away from life's issues.

[@keepinitreel4306]

Enneacanthus like the Bluespotted are so cool. Heck of a job!

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Appreciate ya and I agree. I still want to get an Obesus that isn't hybridized

[@hookedinfloridafishing2561]

awesome video!

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

[@mikenorton1621]

Nicely done, keep it up.

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Thanks Mike, I appreciate it! Next few videos will be saltwater microfishing. Lots of unique marine fishes I want to catch.

Terima kasih banyak!

[@abishasyairin5225]

I think you must find a more tiny hook...hook size 0,1...sode hook,akitakitsune hook...try it...

[@chrispunnett8972]

Were do you get the container?

[@livelljames8218]

You should try a minnow trap as well

[@grandstrandangler8129]

I use minnow traps occasionally in saltwater for mummichogs. But, for my lifelisting I only use hook and line to catch new fish species.

[@johnradice4235]

Eastern mosquito fish looks like a guppy

[@jasonhudson5861]

Mitchell’s trout reel you using ? An where would I find those small hooks at my man I love micro fishing for anything while fishing.

[@grandstrandangler8129]

The name of the reel is slipping my mind currently. I'll check when I get home. There's a few places you can get the hooks but Tenkarabum.com is where I get mine. Lots of japanese-style fishing equipment there. I get the size #30 snelled tanago hooks and the size #22 loose. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Also, the reel is a Penn Battle II 1000 size

[@jasonhudson5861]

@@grandstrandangler8129 love it man keep doin you brother small or big the content is there an thanks for the website definitely checking that out

[@gabrielmireles770]

How do you identify them? I feel like I wouldn’t know what to look up 😅

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Freshwater Fishes of South Carolina book. It has an identification key, but after a while you'll remember the distinctions between common species in your area.

[@Agospuzze]

What did you use for the bait?

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Walmart-bought nightcrawlers. I use small scissors to cut the worms to size. Trying to pinch off small enough pieces just makes you frustrated and messy.

[@jimmymac4559]

For more durable bait, I cut a very tiny piece off of 1” Berkeley gulp minnows to catch shiners and minnows. The bright color makes it easier to sight fish.

[@grandstrandangler8129]

@@jimmymac4559 I have done the same in dire circumstances while ocean fishing. Works well

[@nothinghere244]

What size is the hook? Ill do anything to get noticed

[@grandstrandangler8129]

#30 tanago hooks 👍🏻

[@pengiunsquad5672]

First sunfish could have been a spotted sunfish, not sure if they live wherever u are

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Possibly, but I'm pretty positive it was a Bluegill. Spotted Sunnies don't have those vertical bars, they're more oblong and fatter, and those little black spots were most likely parasites. Never 100% sure with the small ones though. Especially because the spotted's can hybridize. Thanks for watchin!

[@dirkdiggler2430]

What is the size of the hooks?

[@grandstrandangler8129]

#30 tanago hooks.

[@dirkdiggler2430]

Thanks

[@dylanfreeman2593]

Where do you get that hook?

[@grandstrandangler8129]

I get mine off of tenkarabum.com

[@reddotadventure]

What kind of fish is it?

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Golden Topminnow, Eastern Mosquitofish, Bluegill, Bluespotted Sunfish (female), Largemouth Bass, and Pumpkinseed. Thanks for watching!

[@Footballbrosky13]

what are you fishing with

[@grandstrandangler8129]

In this video, I am using a #30 snelled tanago hook with super small pieces of nightcrawler worms as bait. It's best to have a small pair of scissors to cut the worms because its difficult to pinch off small enough pieces with your fingers.

[@KalashKody545]

where do you get size 30 hooks at? i cant find them :/

[@grandstrandangler8129]

tenkarabum.com --- thanks for watching!

[@joegarcia1674]

Look on E..Bay

[@amanteiiirodriguez7363]

Don't let it go on your hand it's hard to take out

[@amanteiiirodriguez7363]

I just got my tinys hook it stick to my hand it's hard to put it out

[@grandstrandangler8129]

yup, really small hooks hurt just as much as bigger ones when pulling them out.

[@dylangoesfishing7278]

hi what bait did u use thx

[@grandstrandangler8129]

in this video, I used nightcrawlers but make sure to bring a small pair of scissors if you're using these size 30 hooks. Almost impossible to break off a piece of worm small enough to use with only your fingers.

[@dylangoesfishing7278]

@@grandstrandangler8129 thanks man tight lines🎣🤙

[@akhilakku3546]

I need micro hooks please help

[@grandstrandangler8129]

I get mine from tenkarabum.com

[@DanYHKim2]

For God's sake, keep a little container of water with you so you don't have to carry that poor fish in the air like that. That's really cool.

[@grandstrandangler8129]

If you're that worried about the well-being of a fish, it'd be best to not fish at all. Nothing hurting them worse than the hook in their mouth.

[@kelly___lopez]

Bro said “I know nothing” then says three words I’ve never heard in my life

[@grandstrandangler8129]

Glass half-empty kinda mentality in that regard 😂😂. Thanks for watching!

[@vexlegend313]

You don’t need bait that small that’s the best part the fish will just go for hook

[@grandstrandangler8129]

sometimes, yes. Spending $6 for worms isn't a big deal for me though. It helps alot being able to start a little feeding frenzy before trying to catch them. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
