Simple Rig to Catch Spanish Mackerel Off ANY Fishing Pier

[@tommyjoestallings855]

Great video, learned alot, tried it out in Jacksonville Florida and caught 17 Mackerel.😊

[@DavidMoore12345]

Hey just wondering, is that long of a leader really necessary? What’s the advantage to it?

[@SeeYaDude]

Awesome video dude, love when the mackerel are chewing! Also Happy Birthday!

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Thanks Brent! They are a fun fish to catch, pretty good eating too, when you cooked right. Thanks for the birthday wish!

[@stephanietaylor7928]

You must have been out there all day. This is a great rig to use, thank you for all the valuable content.

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Not allllll day, but many be most of the day... heheh! Thanks for watching!

[@George_Dermody]

What’s a good fishing pole for pier fishing? Just started to get into fishing

[@davescheer5038]

Wow it’s like 1year to the day since my last comment on this video ! First of all “ Happy Birthday bro !” Went out to the South pier on the skyway and it was windy as hell , but I managed to get 3 big mac’s a big pompano and cut off 1/2 dozen times , lost a bridge monster couldn’t get him up to light of tackle , it was a fun day ! 🎂🍰🎉. Tight lines bro !

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Thanks for watching Dave! Did you go out there today? We were out there on Tuesday searching for King Fishing. Video drops Sunday

[@davescheer5038]

@@CaptChrisCanning yep was out there but was fighting the wind on casting, soaked a treadfins for awhile and got broke off , switched over to a sabki rig with the big flies and had to use a 5/8 oz bell sinker to fight the waves and current , got 3 mackerel and cut off 3 times I’m going to make my own “ HD sabki rig using fine wire and 30lb “ and I’ll tie up some bigger flash flies , wow saw josh’s video on his New Okuma set up that’s a killer rig , is that a new sponsor ? 👍🏼

[@jforo3281948]

[@ericcabral5972]

Have u tried the over and under rig,single hook with plastic glitter squids with weight attached to swivel?!Just cast & retrieve...Did it lot cosst fishing in the Azores👌Fun fight they give

[@ericcabral5972]

When they get finicky, throw some chopped bait

[@ericcabral5972]

[@jeffcarlisle4614]

can you focus more on the different retrieves an when to change up?

Same way brother, nice over hand cast. Maybe go a bit lighter on the weight

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Maybe with a smaller weight at bait. Now, depending on where you fish it might work in general.

[@megamio11]

What kind of rod or fishing pole are you using

[@eastcoastconcealed5290]

any time ...date.. current etc you would think?

[@dinoharrison5138]

Hi Chris, you did a pretty good days fishing there. That big un was exceptionally pretty. (as fish go) lol I hear they are good eating too!! Nice Video and instructional as how you assemble and work the lure. What is your next point of attack? Should be fun. Take Care and Be Well my Friend. 🎣👍👍

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Hmmmm I’m not sure what my next point of attack will be. I hope you’re safe out there Dino with all this crazy virus stuff going on

[@Murusashi]

Any advice on how to figure out where on the pier the macs are? Guessing it’s best to fish during the day for macs

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Days they can see the lures better. If I’m being honest, they have been hit or miss out there lately. Sometimes they are thick and other times they are nowhere to be found

[@jasonsmith8210]

I catch them around noon. They love to bite fast moving bait on the way down to the bottom.

[@jessicatyler6387]

I’m going to try this to catch my BP mackerel!

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Jessica Tyler you can do it!

[@soulfly4076]

use gotcha with 60lb fluorocarbon leader , way easier and fun for the kiddies as well

[@heshamerfan9611]

Good tips man .. do you mind if let me know in which pier you fishing at ?? Thanks 😀

[@CaptChrisCanning]

This was the south pier

[@mfrank3518]

I saw the Asians doing this with the larger size sabiki rigs with a few hooks tipped with small greenbacks. They were bringing in blue runners and mackerel. One woman brought in four fish on one cast

[@robbiejohnson3698]

I catch Spanish mackerel on 1/2 green back rattle traps

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Those will catch them too. Mackerel loveeeee em some greenbacks

[@brucker1016]

Nice fish man! I think the gotcha lure would catch a little more than the spoon though 😜 happy birthday too bro have a great day!

[@CaptChrisCanning]

Blaze Rucker thanks broski! The gotcha lure tears some fish up. That’s is for sure

[@khondkerjamil39]

Can you catch pompano from Skyway Pier? If you do, when is the best time of the year? Thanks.

Yes! Now would be a good time if this virus would go away!

Why so much leader

[@AlexRodriguez-xr9cu]

Mackerel has very good eye sight, and learn to stay away from fishing rigs. He's trying to make the spoon look as natural as possible.

[@robbiejohnson3698]

So the skyway is open

Happy late birthday Chris! My son’s birthday is March 22nd also lol. As for the spoons, I had a lot of luck on a gold spoon for Spanish mackerel. For some reason they would tear it up. They would hit the silver but not as much as gold.

[@CaptChrisCanning]

David, sorry I missed your comment brother! That definitely isn't like me. Thanks for the HBD. Gold is a great color too, both catch a lot of fish. I think water color plays a big role.
