the most underrated fish only texans like?

[@jimmyjaimes5268]

Awesome Catches Coop. It was great talking to you the other day at Oso . I got another mark off my bucket list . Meet and talk to Coop again , this time don't choke up. Be Safe Brother.

[@bobwatchit9636]

Coop, before 9/11 the trout would go up the ship channel in winter. There is a flat on the east side where the trout would come up on sunny day. We used 52 series Mirrolure and run it slow. Miss those days. I learned downtown there are several drains into bay which would cut small muddy ditches and I caught several 27+ with mud on their belly. In 20+ years I think I saw a 30 incher but she won't hit. It was real cold and in those days we would follow a school of mullet, big trout would stay close but didn't feed all the time. Love winter trout fishing.

[@gradybrowning3976]

I’m a Florida boy who grew up on a river named Trout River , have caught probably a couple thousand specks over the years. One of my favorite to fish for, and flounder.

[@wswsparks4542]

I think he ment drum

[@ChristopherT1]

Thanks for taking me with you Coop!!

[@adamsmith3996]

Looks like Baffin bay. Home of surpulid worm and giant trout ! Nice job out there coop !

[@ChewingToons]

Coops Ive put in the hours this winter trying for a 30". Ive fished every bay/jetty in South Texas and gone offshore too. Had quite a few in late 20"s even a 29" but I cant lie! Needs to be done.

[@jasons9157]

They should lower it permanently. There are just to many fisherman on the water.

[@yc_exploring]

You mention wishin you had a powerpole. Theres a company called boatsticks that makes a manual power pole that you basically just stab into the mud/sand and it holds pretty well. you can use it for poling around too although i wish it was more flexible. It's 8 or 10 feet and breaks down into two pieces which is nice! also u could probably rig up a way to mount it to your kayak. Reach out to the company and I bet they would send you one!

[@CaryKelly11]

How about some "There's a guy!" merch?

[@fitztastico]

5:50 I got such sudden anxiety seeing your phone in hand while hitting waves. Even when I'm kayaking, my phone stays inside a quadruple sealed protector bc I'm so paranoid 😖

[@1stDownFishing]

Happy to have you back full time

[@fesp7728]

Those trout were thick! Love it!

[@earlewilliams4262]

Going to my bass lake tomorrow. I always get geeked by the Thresherfishingman.

[@ThresherFishing]

Good luck

[@jesselugo8050]

The aquarium is full of shrimp! 🤣🤣 Thanks for putting up bad ass videos Thresh 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@marcusaurelias6453]

Coop,every time that I see you wading and holding a bleeding fish,I hear the theme from "Jaws"in my mind.Be safe out there.

[@itdontmatteridontcare5182]

As a southerner that moved to the Midwest I love your videos while hating them. I want to eat all of those.😂😂

[@johnlasley9384]

Thresher Speckled Trout will hang out with Black Drum & Red Drum especially as they come back in from the winter offshore spawn. Don’t be afraid to throw micro lures as well to land some Gator Trout. The Trout are fat because they are feeding like crazy as there getting ready for early spring, April is usually the best month for monster trout in the deep channels & on the edge of flats at night as the water temp reaches 67-71 degrees.

[@MikeTheCarguy]

At minute 5:43 "We're gonna keep fishing this spot." Next shot a few seconds later you're motoring off. 🤣 Nice specks though. 👍🏽

[@brandonh4038]

Love the content man, always nice seeing the upload notification

[@jdguevara4208]

Another Awesome video Coop. Can't wait to get back down to the Coast from N Texas

[@noseyftw]

Specks are some of the best tasting fish!

[@STEPIQUE]

We Floridian loves this trout. Man.. the treble hooks really can help sometime but we are not allowed here LOL

[@stevetoth4765]

Awesome trout Coop, I thought you would keep a couple for dinner. They looked tasty to me. Great video, always good to catch more than a few. Looked like you had a blast! Keep it up brother!

[@skaterboi32792]

Speckled trout is my go to fish and here on the ms gulf coast it's rare to get fatties like that, you had my anxiety going nuts throwing all of em back

[@davidclark2046]

Cool videos brother..we catfisherman here in Chattanooga Tn use the popping corks and spoons to catch the skipjack river herring (catfish candy)...its the #1 cut bait here for big blues and flatheads... good luck and tight lines brother

[@stephenkeefer3436]

When cooking trout, I always use House Autry Medium Hot Breader. Try it Coop. It’s the bomb.

[@danl.909]

Great trout trip!

[@hookedonbarbecue]

Damn coop, you were tearing them up.

[@wormway_69]

[@goodman4773]

@@ChewingToons Just telling you what is in the record books. If I'm wrong they are wrong.

[@FishermanATX]

That was awesome man. Love how these trout were fat. Keep them coming 👍

Great setup. Looks like you have everything needed. Ct. Fishing no bueno

[@prestonvolkmann3980]

Always the best fishing vids on KZbin!! just wish I could catch fish like you can it’s like you can talk to them lol

[@ThresherFishing]

Haha yeah sometimes...

Because of you I bought my first set of Korkers CastTrax overshoes for fishibg Packery Channel

Good video Coop!

[@FatGuyinaLittleBoat]

Yes man, get after it!

[@zachrappaport9920]

When are the clean and cooks coming back

[@CrazyCranker]

So you had the Rover for awhile, I think your the only KZbinr that still has it. Can you do a review on it? Likes, dislikes, any quality build concerns? Thanks!

[@pmhum]

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.

[@ronlackey2689]

Looks like the trout are bouncing back nicely from the big fish freeze/kill. Good to know. PS Those were some FATTIES

[@PeaceIsBetter]

Great stuff and damn are those trout eating well!

[@dyrdek]

so relaxed dropping a perfectly good rod in the water lol

[@tanunnallee]

Going to be moving to south Corpus this summer. Hope to run into you sometime coop!

[@DogDudeDrone]

Hey dude if you ever come to San Diego we have a fish called a corvina, very similar as a texas trout. You can target them with spooks

[@teecee211]

so you lost an entire rod and reel into the drink? if so, you are very calm as same thing happened to me last year and I still cant get over it!

[@jasminepina9058]

I would be upset too and I didn't pay 200 for a rod and reel like the pros do.

[@nozrep]

holy crap is that a Sublime song that I’ve never heard before? Dang, great song. I don’t think it is Sublime, but his voice sounds kind of similar. Slightly Stoopid? Rebelution? ahh dang I wanna knowwwww why did Thresher stop citing all his songs like he used to?!

[@handyhands2451]

Sometimes a crankbait like a dd22 by Norman will work good for getting rods out of the water. Use that method in lakes and salt too. Just to let you know man

[@auvu8738]

Hi coop. Good fishing videos

[@joeyquintanilla6567]

It’s crazy how that industrial plant in the distance is polluting the air which eventually has to come back down you can see how all that pollution in the air makes the sky look like dirt

[@rburnett6266]

Nice video, Coop! Thanks...

[@Carlosboatingadventures20007]

I lost my rod like that too one day. It hurts so I feel your pain.

[@pakde8002]

I know Texans think they're special but I can attest that trout is a happily caught species in North Carolina (both on our beautiful coast and magnificent mountains).

[@FatGuyinaLittleBoat]

Get a tiny drift anchor. I’ll send you one if you like.

[@jasonmoore6419]

Do you think they hella thick from the deadly freeze last year killing off alot of preds creating more baitfish for fewer preds that survived?

[@Nintendoguy19]

Why do you live bait fish with a treble hook? I have had much better luck staying connected to fish with a circle or J hook. So I’m just curious on the advantages you find.

[@adrianhickman4981]

Love the vid. Anyone know song name?

[@jimmypadilla1170]

Fishing in the land of giants!!!

[@texasredfishoutdoors1857]

I love the vids good job 👍

Speckled trout or more properly spotted weakfish.

[@homiedeehomiedee9963]

Nooooooooooooo !

[@charlesab]

Standing in 3 feet of water with a bleeding fish on a stringer in the middle of nowhere by yourself, that looks like fun.

[@Jrhnhemp]

Keep that stringer long (Never use a short string when wadefisjing!) with the needle end pushed down into the wade belt slot designed into it. If a shark hits your stringer, just pull the needle up and let it go. Your stringer will already be down current so releasing it will take it away from you. That’s advice I’ve followed for my entire wadefishing life and I’ve never had a stringer hit. BUT… better safe than sorry. There nothing like watching the sunrise standing hip deep in Copano Bay watching tailing reds within casting distance in front of you. You know it’s gonna be a memorable day that replaces all those days you got skunked.

[@jrodrodriguez1805]

First comment!!

[@brianpierson7708]

Are you crazy or what is wrong with you southeast Louisiana we have been hammering specks for so long even have food most people would kill for that’s been created around the specked trout
