NEVER Lose A Fish Again! NEW Pier Fishing Rigs (Steel Leader + Treble Hooks) CATCH & COOK

When pier fishing, it is common problem for sharp toothy fish to bite your entire line off, resulting in a total loss of your rig. If you want to stop losing your bait/ fishing rigs as often, change your hooks to these two styles of rigs. One is tied with steel leaders and small treble hooks, the other is tied with a long shank hooks. These help prevent cut offs and help you catch those toothy fish!

Man I would love to fish with you sometime. I love how close to your family you are. You and your wife are such a great team. Keep the videos coming we love the content man.

[@Howwerelivingfishing]

I keep a bunch of wire leaders in my fishing gear for chain pickerel. They’re basically a small version of the northern pike and they have crazy teeth. Those are usually the only fish that’ll bite through a line in Nova Scotia, in my experience. Love seeing you helping others at the pier. Between KZbin channels like yours, and talking to people on the piers, that’s how I gained all of my fishing knowledge. Now I love giving back to the community in the same manner whenever I can. Also I love how much you love sharing Asian recipes. As a Canadian born chinese(on my dad’s side) I hardly know anything about my Chinese culture, except for our traditional foods. Cooking Chinese recipes helps me feel like I’m reconnecting with my roots.

[@gregsedor3903]

I really enjoy your fishing 🎣 instructional videos, but the added pluses of your cleaning and cooking the fish , that you just caught, is a fantastic addition for those of us who love fishing… keep up this fantastic channel.🙏🏻👍🏻

Very informative!

[@HeySkipper]

Happy to help!

[@chewielewis4002]

You might want to clarify the rig should only be used for ribbonfish because at least in Florida treble hooks are prohibited when fishing for black drum, flounder, permit, pompano, redfish, sheepshead, snook, speckled trout, tarpon, tripletail@@HeySkipper

[@arnelblancaflor2787]

We make that in to jerky and fry them 😋😋😋 yummy fish ribbon jerky👍👍

[@thadlandry1165]

good job !!!!!

[@aussieauto7314]

Hey brother we have this fish in Australia we call it a hairtail they get up to seven feet long here and they do get longer again i have seen one that was close to 9 feet long and what we normally do is u use a brand new sponge that doesnt have any chemical it and u scrub the silver off the fish then u cur in to cuttles

[@peggyallen5465]

Happy weekend also, good luck with your boat and hope the next time you go out, the fish bites so fast you cant keep up with them all!!😜😂

[@RagnarrBjorn]

We use leaders like those wire ones up here in Michigan for pike and musky, I figured they would be a good leader to use down in Florida too. I had planned on bringing a bunch of my pike and musky stuff down there in a couple months to try some of them out for salt water fish. You should learn how to make a quick strike leader so you can use live bait too. ;) Great video by the way, keep it up. :)

[@bobbob6725]

them knots you tied with the wire trace will end up slipping with anything big , when i make pike rigs (im in UK btw) i tie a treble with 2 overhand knots then whip the tag end back up the trace and shrink wrap and have the 2nd hook runnin freely (just shot it down to where i want it) + use wire cutters/ snips to cut it too or it will fray

[@luciusmaerz5183]

i live near the tampa area mostly fishing skyway and ive never seen that fish until your videos

[@RickysFarmAndHatchery]

Caught a needle noes 27in. Hollywood FL. Real low tide today. Sep 2. Going back out at 6pm. And in the moring 5am. Oceandrive behind the resorts. There a lot of blue runners here too.

[@mohammednaidoo6038]

Hey dude, awesome video , especially with the treble hook trace. We catch ribbon fish here in Durban, South Africa, however most of the time it's used for barracuda bait because of the shine. After seeing how you cooked it , I'm going to try that recipe the next time I catch it. By the way, we call ribbon fish WALLA WALLA here in SA😂..Tight lines bro...

[@coastalcustomlure]

Hey Skipper if you made a slurry of salty ice water it will take the fight instantly out of the ribbon fish and let you take the hooks out without injury. Is also preserves the fish to use as bait later. If your intent is to eat them the saltwater aids in bleeding out your fish for a better tasting meal. P.S. we eat them through out South Florida and the Bahamas.

[@4shotsofficial]

wow nice catch @HeySkipper Here in the Philippines here in my province, we call it Espada fish ( Sword ), But if that is short we call it kutsilyo ( Knife fish ) hehe

[@dennistausky379]

In the Philippines they eat them as minnows. They dry them, and eat with vinigar.... oh so good. But I have been catching them in VA and DE large like that, chunk them and fry the bones are soft.

[@rickwu6005]

the fish looks like cuban chain. nicely done

[@ameralamer-nz8bu]

and this is the guy who said he hated treble hooks and had compassion for fish.

[@alfredococa8803]

Gracias , lastima que en el Sur de la Florida nunca e visto ese pez , pero la receta y la forma de cortar y preparar lo voy a hacer con las Spanish Mackerel pequeñas que pueda pescar

[@RickysFarmAndHatchery]

Hey Guys Just bought all my gear. Still here in FL until the 10th. I'm fishing all week ocean drive hollywood. Behind the resorts. I caught a yellow jack yesterday morning. But you have to fish before 9am and after 6pm. Lets Go. Hope to see you there.

[@KORR]

do ribbon fish have tiny scales like mackerel?

[@Bass59]

Hi Brandon you know out here in New York I wish there were ribbon fish here I'd be having a ball catching them things

[@Auggeeee93535]

Love all your fishing Vids !! But Dude! Props to the music, it's tight!! what song is that playing at the 8.45 minute mark to about 9:45 min. mark ??

[@craigvizzini1630]

The salt you were using on the ribbon fish bait strips, was that regular table salt or sea salt?

[@arcbb]

Going to fish Kure Beach and pier in NC October 15-20. Do you ever get up that way? Hoping the fall runs will be starting. Also hop the fish are biting enough to use your tips. Thanks for the videos!

[@smmyers5956]

Keep some to eat!! I saw that those taste good!

[@suddenlyfishing]

wow very nice video

[@HeySkipper]

Thanks so much!

Hey. Ship, I'm from Trinidad and Tobago and we call those fish cutlash fish it grows over 6' feet long one off the most tastyist fish in the sea.

[@robertwade1951]

34:00 fish soup, fish head soup, or try lemon cooking 👍

[@HeySkipper]

Maybe next time, thanks for suggestion!

Grilled with some chili crisps added to the marinade will add another depth of deliciousness

[@bman_2024]

Do have instructions for tieing the double tribble?

[@johnsundar8867]

We in India make coconut milk curries, and also fry them spicy!!!Very tasty fish 😊

I hit jax pier all the time, hope to run into you one day. Nice vid bro

Thanks!

Oh I'm not picky it when I go fishing at least with the ribbon fish you don't got to worry about scaling hopefully when I get my vacation I'll be going to Florida to see my sister or my cousin who lives in Tampa I might try going for ribbon fish if I find a good fishing area

Have fun guys ! What the name of this fishing pier? I want to try someday , please thanks

[@trysin4704]

Is it that the beltfish are delicate or is it cause it's entire body is a fin making them a lot stronger puller and more resistant to being pulled around in the water, or both?

[@maorimana]

My experience with eel was spare fishing at the river "fresh water eel" caught a couple of good size ones 😊 friend cut them up and battered them they were so nice 👍 and you get so much meat actually a good feed for a party of people 😋

[@HeySkipper]

Wow, must have been good!

[@rcracingzone1]

Do you put your salted bait into the fridge? Have you salt mackerel for bait?

[@andrewfishingadventure2626]

Use hairtail tracker lights

[@davidtorres1416]

Do you sell the rig you used?? Just out of curiosity

[@dankimoutdoor750]

What pier is this?

[@coastalcustomlure]

Right church, wrong pew. Kingfish fishermen have been using ribbon fish as bait with treble hooks and surflon steel leaders forever. Check out a few videos. There are easier ways to do this like using a jig head and treble teaser.

[@dj_babamoodley7760]

Dude I've been trying to purchase ur salty baits but I'm afraid it's not available in south Africa... Any idea how to hook me up?

[@AverageJoeGamer22]

Are the ribbon fish also found in the gulf?

Yes!

[@christianschultz2972]

It's illegal in Fllorida to use treble hooks in conjuction with live or dead bait

[@martelvonc]

Ha! If I can catch it, I'll eat it. 😀 I save my fish heads in some salt for crabbing.

[@HeySkipper]

Haha

[@silentstorm2563]

Natures silver spoon (smell included)

[@dannymcevoy9363]

Go and watch pike angler's using treble hooks and creating rigs ... There's loads of them but UK, Poland , Sweden and Ireland.... Sorry but it's a bad way of tying a treble hook rig. Easy to come lose and you don't want that treble hook in a fish mouth or down it's throat. Love your show

[@carlmowers2197]

Brandon, may I suggest you never have more than three eyes of your rod over the top of your railing. That way the fish can bairl lift the rod to pull it over. With the pole that way the cantilever action can't lift the rod to pull it over. I have hooked 4- and 5- pound croakers on our pier here in California and have never had the pole even come off the ground.

[@HeySkipper]

Haha good lookin out man!

[@yakitiyyakkayaks4323]

You think ribbons taste good the under dog fish that taste awesome is puffer fish

You need a little pair of pliers. It will save getting bit and hooks going into your fingers.

[@ZippytheHappyChimp]

Ignoring the fact that ANY meat cooked on the bone is so much more flavorful, filleting fish that small seems like a waste of time. Cooking times for whole/de-deheaded are just a hair longer, and dealing with bones when you KNOW they're there is so much easier than when you get a random one in a "boneless" fillet. Also, properly cooked fish almost always pull away from the bones super easy. -This has been your "old man yelling at clouds" moment.

[@AlextaziEntertainment_E.H.R]

Americans picky? Israelis even worse.. if it's not kosher they don't even look at it and if they don't know immediately they get disgusted. My friends here the disgusted at me that I'm eating crabs, shrimps and squids
