Absolutely great tutorial, Steve. You are so good about sharing the stuff we as novices can use to help us catch, clean, and cook more fish. Otherwise, it would take us years to learn on our own. Thanks from the bottom of our tackle-box hearts. Your grateful neighbor in the Keys, Denver

[@josefloridaflatsfishing2478]

Pilchards = guaranteed good fishing. Great tips like always Steve.

[@LAWCROW]

[@calonge86]

Hey Steve, any pointers on catching the bigger pilchards? Finding a tom of smaller ones, cant seem to find the 3-4" ones. Fishing the Largo sound area.

[@jamesreichert1793]

Ohhhhh shit Steve 😩

[@poresa1]

I'm almost the first Steve

[@iamremy-kl3xm]

Nice

[@jmcimba]

What size (squares / holes) do you recommend, and how many pounds of lead per foot? My current neet doesn't seem to sink fast enough and I miss a lot of bait. Thanks

[@ReelbiteTv]

Daily dose of the Florida keys

[@louisl4221]

in Tampa we have a baitfish we call a 'greenback' looks a lot like that sandy pilchard. is that the same fish? just a local name maybe ?

[@aquaticpears3183]

Look at all that baaaaaait! It's like striking gold. Tasty to eat fried?

[@kingdavey90]

Yummy to my tummy

[@cvrlosll2854]

what weight do you use or do you always use a jighead?

[@chriswade3424]
