[@inletreg4844]

Everytime I go to the Skyway I get scared of the dolphins chasing my fish. Lol awesome channel man!

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Thanks, yeah those dolphins are a pain!!!

[@doc2936]

Love the dolphin hunting your fish haha. Just subscibed. Looking at the background and trying to see if its on the marked havens. Mcdill afb has a decent map of the havens. Assuming that might be bahia haven

[@markpauley6219]

Another awesome video todd , I look forward to watching your educational videos as it gets me so pumped up for fishing and to try your methods, thanks a million from all us novice anglers!

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Thanks!

[@jimdrechsel3611]

New subscriber. Like the way you provided real tips and pointed out the screen. Can you tell me what jigs those are when to use the different type of jigs?

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Hi Jim, you can find all the tackle we use here. www.tampabayfishingchannel.com/shop-fishing-tackle We use different sizes of jigs depending on the current flow. But the one that we go to most often is any jig in the 1oz area for fishing inside Tampa Bay for grouper and snapper.

[@messengerp9293]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Great video.

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Thanks for watching.

[@BradDeverall]

Could you do a video/review on your boat? I like the new sea pros would be curious how it’s treating you so far.

[@alecrego5240]

Where would you suggest to start looking for spots to a new angler. Love the tips thank you.

[@RadReelingFishing]

Good tips on the fish finder. As time goes on... when self filming generally a higher standard develops for not including sub par footage. I think it's important to ask my self if I'd enjoy watching what I'm publishing. It sounds like you are fishing the shipping channel. Keep bringing the videos!

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Thanks Rad Reeling. Yes we are fishing the shipping channel.

[@richardcallahan3756]

Great video I’m in Daytona looking to come that way in the next few weeks thanks

[@ckrico9588]

[@blakeherrick]

such great tips! waiting out the tap tap tap for a bigger bite!

[@timothyjordan5942]

[@buckeyenation7247]

Dudes just SLAYIN. My goodness!!

[@deivysmarrero305]

hey sir i live here in tampa and can only go fishing to the bay since my boat is not that big can you please tell me where that fishing spot is ?

[@laurazavatkay2782]

Wow! You read my, and alot of other people's mind, as it turns out. Great content for a video! I get that you saw structure on your machines, however, I did not get the sense that your sonar was showing the presence of fish. Do you fish the new spot to test for fish even though it appears there are none there...or am I missing something? Thanks Todd.

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

I actually never look for fish. Just the structure. When we find some we drop down a bait to see if anyone is home!

[@biggiebruce72]

Thanks for the vid! I have a garmin and would love for you to do a video about reading structure on my boat with it one day. I will cover all cost!

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Thanks Bruce I appreciate that. Unfortunately I only get to typically fish one time a week so it is Saturdays with my fishing partner. Keep watching as we will be getting more in depth. If you have any questions please let me know and I will answer them to the best of my ability.

[@davespiegel8236]

Great video. It’s going to help me find the fish. Going to purchase a new sonar

[@scottyfrav8083]

Ok, so lay in on em after the tap tap? Or the tap tap tap? Or was it the tap tap tappity tap? Or the bippity bop tappity tap epoo? Either way I think I got it :-) great info guys keep it up!

Thank you Andrew we appreciate it.

[@SarasotaMurph]

Love your videos. Would you use a Shimano stradic 4000 for grouper?

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

We are using Quantum Boca 40's and thank you.

[@randygreen1882]

Thanks Todd for the video question you said you start to chum when tide slows down do you chum when the tide is moving as well or do you try to fish during sonar times major/minor where your are at the slack tides

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

No we do not chum when the tide is really moving simply because the chum will flow quite a ways from the boat and chum in an area that we will not be fishing. I had a boat about a half mile away from me on this day and they were chumming and their chum was actually going by my boat because the tide was moving too much.

[@Thesteveb333]

how far away from your spot do you spot lock, or do you keep moving closer to your spot as the tide slows down- Great info

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

If the tide is moving I will go up current from the spot and feed line back and if the tide is slack I will set up right on top of the spot.

Man do you mind giving out some numbers for mangrove snapper fishing, i been out with my dad and can't find any good bite on the bay

[@devfish7672]

try this. find ship channel and drift it with shrimp. when you get bites mark it on your fish finder. soon you'll have nice pattern. really fun in winter when sheepshead around. best at low flow tides.

[@robwright2339]

Hi guys...any tips on how to target pinfish vs whitebait? Im in downtown St. Pete, and catching whitebait fine, but sporadic on pins....ty...

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Have you been using chum to try to catch the pinfish? Look over really grassy areas and start chumming. There are pinfish on almost all the flats but with the water temp starting to drop the will be working their way off the flats.

[@D0nKilluminati]

What way do you use to find feeding times?

[@dirtychina5964]

When a hot bite suddenly shuts down usually means that somebody with bigger teeth just showed up . Thats what ive learned diving the same spots I fish. I fish the spot first to get the area chummed up then get in the water with spearguns.

[@TampaBayFishingChannel]

Well that is true for sure but every spot we went too was shutdown. Had something to do with the high pressure that was over us. But we have had many encounters with the sharks, dolphins and goliath groupers shutting down a spot.

[@dirtychina5964]

It's a good thing you and Chad throw back most of your fish, the bay be empty 🤣 .... and that grunting the grouper do is code to alert the others your boat bottom has arrived ! They know that hull n they run n hide. I don't have fish that grunt,they laugh n take me bait !
