Dude. Seriously. The quality of production and content of yer vids makes me feel more like i'm watching a cable channel episode instead of KZbin vid. Thanks for quality content! Especially since you spend so much time filming Googan content. Yer a beast. And oh yeah...you slay the fish!!! and how about Camera man/fish expert u brought. Props to his solid knowledge!! yes more episodes!! Thx!!!

John it's about time you come my way and do our kinda fishing.. 👍👍👍

[@retroj3533]

It's so cool to see somebody that I've grown up watching, fish in a place that I've grown up fishing. Great video, Jon!

[@noahstoll977]

Go fishing with thrasher fishing on the jetties and catch bull reds.

[@brennanmahoney9591]

Couple redfish tips. Don’t be afraid to slow way down and let your bait just sit on the bottom. Notice their mouth is in the bottom of their face they want to eat things off the bottom (crabs, shrimp, etc). Letting them find it will be the best case scenario. In the winter the fish slow way down and get spooked easily so working that bait fast around those shallow fish will scare them. A lot of the techniques will be similiar to what you through for small mouth a lot of finesse swimbaits. But don’t have to swim them, dragging and bouncing are very effective. Lastly don’t be afraid to use lit tackle. The go to is a 2500 reel with 10-15lb braid to a Fluor leader on a 7’ rod in the 6-12lb range. These a lot to learn but that should give you a good starting point. If you have any questions on saltwater fishing let me know.

[@alana.8593]

So when you see them chasing and they're not biting we go slow? Cause I've had very frustrating days seeing reds eat right in front of me but they don't bite, once I went through my whole tackle box and they didn't bite any lure, but I didnt think about slowing down and bouncing it off the bottom, I'll try that next

[@brennanmahoney9591]

@@alana.8593 Yes especially when the waters cold they will get very finicky and will spook easy. There have predators and are not at the top of the food chain unlike most LGM bass so they are not always as aggressive. A lot of guys will use z man baits because they float so when you stop your bait and let it sit it doesn't lay flat on the bottom, the tail will float up like a shrimp or crab making it easier for the redfish to find and eat. But I can't stress it enough you can't fish too slow for redfish, and if you see them out it in front of them and just let them find it (AND WHEN THEY ARE NOSING DOWN ON IT DON'T MOVE IT). A good way to think of fishing with artificails is when you are fishing fast you are covering a lot of water and a lot of fish are seeing your bait but a lower % are eating it. When you fish slow you are covering less water so less fish see your bait but your presentation should be that much better resulting in a higher % of fish eating your bait. There is so much to learn about red fishing but this touches the surface on some mistakes a lot of people make. P.S. another secret a lot of guys are starting to use is ned rigs for redfish/trout. The way they stand up on the bottom with the bait pointed up is perfect. I like to use a heavy wire ned head with a 3.75" z man streakz.

[@alana.1195]

@@brennanmahoney9591 thank you so much for this info, i forgot that reds/trout aren't at the top of the food chain, i always thought that if i reel it fast they would just react to it and eat it like a bass would, definitely changed my whole perspective on inshore fishing. btw i fish on the southern end of the laguna madre (SPI to be exact) if you would like to link up and wet a line sometime. Again thank you so much for this, i will try the ned rig next time i go.

[@shutupmanful]

Yooo! I used to watch all of you guys years ago when y'all only had 50k subscribers or so. Quit watching a good bit of y'all due b/c I mainly saltwater fish. But I have stayed subscribed to you, Lunkers, and LakeFork due to kinds of videos y'all post whether more saltwater fishing or hunting related. Love this video! Hope more inshore vids are to come

[@MattsSaltwaterFishing]

Fishing my home waters, welcome to Corpus! Hope you enjoyed your stay.

[@adrickvelasco570]

About damn time you made it to Texas's coastline. Now you just need to learn to find them properly in ankle deep water... time to buy a shallow sport haha

[@toddhammer9351]

Awesome to see you fishing Texas salt. I grew up fishing the lower Laguna Madre. Looking forward to more from this send.

[@BigBoiJordan]

Love to see KZbinrs that I’ve been watching for a while go to my local fisheries and catch good fish that people don’t get to see keep it up Jon 👍🤠

[@biggiecheese5135]

Bro today's so weird, my other fave youtube fisherman, Lawson Lindsay, usually does saltwater fishing (So do I mostly), except he decided to go Bass fishing on today's video. And you, who generally does Bass stuff, going fishing in the salt for Reds. Maybe I should go fishing in a swimming pool next lol

[@chrisortiz8746]

You should check out some tackle shops down in McAllen and Harlingen

[@tylerwyant7103]

Hey Jon I love that you're down in Texas on the coast fishing! I used to fish and cast net in Galveston. I recommend visiting that place and doing a solid video. I had a great time there myself growing up

[@bassnbucks3238]

You can tell when Jon holds the camera and when Alex holds the camera A1 quality!

About time you made it to the coast. You have been missing out on half of the great fishing Texas has to offer.

[@craziecaleb8862]

I love to see you fish where I grew up fishing, keep it up man

[@travisbrewer3561]

Laguna Madre is an awesome place. I've fished there with my brother-in-law a few times. We always Target Reds and speckled trout. We always have a blast. There is a fish camp / Hotel in Flour Bluff with a marina and a restaurant that we have stayed at. You should check that place out. Makes it very convenient when you're from out of town

Finally came down to the valley 👌🏽👌🏽 there is good fishing in the Brownsville area too Arroyo city for gar and lobos for all species

[@txbassbux]

Need to consider wading during late Jan-March and the surf during the summer for trout. Sight casting tripletail in the summer is hard to beat as well.

[@byronhamlin7500]

Glad to see something a little different from the usual bass vids. More Texas saltwater action please. Do your research and you'll find Texas Snook, Tarpon, even crazy Sailfish in super shallow...check Bob Hall Pier, Sailfish, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel...untapped potential. And yes you should hit up ThresherFishing for a good south Texas collaboration. 30MilesOut, Ty and Teresa are good people too. AddictiveFishing did an episode on Texas Snook...good reference for location. Love your vids Jon, keep finding new content.

Make sure you wash all that salt out of your carpet and motor. Check all electrical connections for corrosion. Use liquid electrical tape on connections under dash and elsewhere if your gonna continue to fish the coast. Would love to see you do a matagorda/Colorado river redfish trip!

[@michaelmoua2541]

When you fish reds in shallow flats like that and their tails at breaking surface usually mean there eating crabs or shrimps. Should try DOA/artificial shrimp

[@timothymartin6198]

Green gulp and DOA best to use

[@theokupper7179]

Where did you dock in? And while there did you fish holly beach? First place in my life I placed a decent red fish. After living In Tampa Florida and then McAllen Tx and fishing a lot of SPI.
