Tossed a LIVE! Shrimp under this BRIDGE and Caught THIS... [Gulf of Mexico]

Let's see what's lurking under this huge saltwater bridge! Perdido Pass Bridge connects Florida to Alabama and spans over a very deep and fast moving channel! The tide water rushing by the bridge pylons create eddies for predator fish to sit and wait for bait to come by them. Barnacles and Oysters grow on the bridge pylons and this can be a very productive place to fish!

Awesome video! The other day we went on a dolphin cruise down at the caribe marina and it was real fun. When we were boarding there was someone bottom fishing off the marina. Next to him were 4 or 5 huge sheepshead all in a pile. He then told me how it was a little slow down there but I was in shock because up in Virginia where I live, 5 nice sized fish are unheard of in saltwater fishing. Happy New Year!

[@JH-pk6em]

First view and comment. Thanks for all you do. Love the videos. Happy New Year from Oklahoma!

Hi Steven always a good day when you post

Hey, your videos really reignite my passion for fishing! The quality is top-notch, and they're genuinely enjoyable to watch. Your infectious enthusiasm and positive attitude make them a joy. The drone shots are a fantastic touch. Thanks a bunch for the hard work you pour into creating these videos! 👍😁👍

Thank you!

Hello i love your videos you were the reason why i started fishing

[@firestorm8471]

Do the planet a favor and ask Richard Gene to come fishing with you,, that would be a fun video..

[@BamaSaltwater]

Maybe one day for Crappie!! :)

[@andrewn6271]

He does saltwater fish too!

[@PaintedTurtle001]

Sweet action! 👍

[@joeyw4442]

Beautiful day. Nice fish. Thanks for taking us along.

[@FlecnFLOsho]

Another win! What do you think about including information about how to hold the fish or what to look out for?

[@bbeeson4]

Love the braid trick of threading the flouro loop in the hook! Genius

[@BamaSaltwater]

It definitely helps with those small Hook eyes for sure!

[@davidstolarski741]

Another excellent, fun to watch video. Thanks for taking us fishing...

[@stevenmcadams6621]

Yep, as always another great video bro! Awesome drone footage too. The water looks good right now. 👍🏻🤙🏻

[@Jacobsfishing2122]

Love your videos. Keep up the good work. ❤

[@rossscaggs]

Love the tip at the end to use the drop to secure the rig... Used that set up for a long time and it can make a mess. great idea!

[@skipwood3835]

take a trip to Matagorda Bay in Texas a little bit underneath Texas City. Great flounder , bull redfish and Speckle trout they’re my biggest bull red was off jetty 46 1/2 inch on 20 pound test Abu Garcia with ugly stick... Very good videos

[@philliphatcher548]

Great Video! We just spent the first 3 days this week in your area! We did ok....The weather was not this nice and you couldn't find a Fiddler Crab in 20 miles. We also had some luck off Fort Morgan Wednesday at the rigs. This is the best channel for learning to saltwater fish. Lost Bay Tackle and Hooked Up were very helpful and provided some good information to us rookies. We'll be back soon. Keep making good wholesome family videos.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Awesome to hear!!! It can be tough this time of year depending on the weather!! Thank you! Happy New Year and God Bless!

[@FishingtheThinBlueLine]

Great video, Steven! Love the “Tackle Tips” portion! I love that you cover your setup and bait! Have a Happy New Year and Stay Safe, Blessed and Healthy!

[@ianschwartz1222]

If you’ve never made smoked bluefish dip, I’d highly recommend it. The bigger blues around 10-20 pounds start to not taste quite as good though

[@SouthBamaSalt]

Love your videos. I'll be moving down your way in June from PA.

[@scottcooner-fr9el]

Awesome can’t wait to get back there

[@johnvanduren4806]

Another totally enjoyable video, but I am wondering why you don't employ fenders when you launch the boat.

[@BamaSaltwater]

My rub rail works just as good!! Thank ya !

[@jsullivan5823]

Papa and I would always fish in his little 8 foot bass buster and anything over a few pounds absolutely spun the boat lol Thanks again man!!

[@mikebennett3432]

Thanks Bama! 😎👍

love your content man you are so positive! God bless man merry Christmas.

[@SlackTidesFishing]

Nice video big dawg!

[@jamescanady3442]

Another epic video, man! I'm so happy that you got yourself a drone as well; the footage is killer. I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not, but over here in Florida (especially around Sebastian Inlet), a lure called a 'Thumper Shrimp' is absolutely killing it. The 3" version is smacking multi-species left and right. I'd love to see you give it a try over in your waters. It's a silly looking bait, but super effective. Happy new year brother!

[@cross9494]

Another good video!!

[@jackiebishop9574]

Another fishing tackle question. When to use pyramid sinkers, wedge or bank sinkers? Just curious of what you think? PS you said come join you on the fishing trip, I immediately jump up, ran down to the dock and it was empty.....I miss another fishing trip .......... Love your video!!!!!

[@BamaSaltwater]

I like pyramid sinkers mainly for surf fishing in sandy bottom, bank sinkers for rocky and vertical fishing over structure. ! Tight lines, God Bless, and Happy New Year!

[@jackiebishop9574]

Happy New to you and you and your mom. Thank you for the reply.@@BamaSaltwater

[@ReelGZ]

Nice fishing, Bama. Which Daiwa are you using? Keep up the good work. I especially love when mom comes along and outfits you lol.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks!! I own the Daiwa BG MQ. It's excellent for the money

[@johnmoe7851]

Nice video!

[@justiceberle9743]

Love your videos. I’m moving to North Carolina from California. Switching from fresh water to salt water. Wanted to know what rod and reel to get for surf fishing

Great video! All best for 2024!

[@davidwilliams26]

Happy new year😂

[@Southalabamaoutdoors]

Steven looks like it's time to clean the bottom of the boat..looks dirty..love the content..where's the hunting video at?

[@BamaSaltwater]

IKR lol. I clean it very often and use instant hole cleaner but sometimes those backwoods creeks behind farms leave it nastay ! lol

[@alan_whoneedstiedye]

Enjoyed.

[@Adam-yb2ei]

Great vid man. Saw drone footage in the beginning. Are you allowed to use drones to fish? Sorry if that’s a novice question lol.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks and im sure you could but I don't find it as challenging or appealing to use the drone for finding fish. I like challenging myself and what ive learned. It gives an ethical and honest approach. But the drone does make for excellent footage!

[@kayakflyfishingschool]

Another great video!!

[@jamesdempsey8811]

Like your videos and launching from boggy Point was wondering if you fish in the bay there

[@ricks2907]

Killin it bro. Thanks buddy cheers Ricky 👩🏻‍🦼💦🎣🐠🐈‍⬛🕺💃🎸🙏💦

[@braydenvazquez]

What rod and reel do you use?

[@richardward9111]

Enjoyed your vids as always. Was wondering how much your boat weighs? Happy Holidays from Bama born in Texas.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks , and about 3K lbs or so

[@zxkilla6428]

What fishing reel is that ?

[@eddieoutdoors120]

W day when bama uploads

You talk about the freshwater sheeps sometimes. Come here to the Tennessee River and do a taste test.

perdido pass jetty?

[@wendellgamstead4933]

Looks like you got out on the last nice day before the cold hit.

[@BamaSaltwater]

Definitely , it was blowing hard and cold that day. I was suffering not wearing a jacket but the fishing was too good .

[@wendellgamstead4933]

@@BamaSaltwater Good job ! I couldn't buy a sheepie all week or a redfish either. Hung up is all I could get at thebridge. Lol

M addicted to fishing, ima go this spring

[@terryluck3]

I love these videos

[@terryluck3]

Do you do guided fishing trips?

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thank you watching !!!! I do not currently run charters but I do have a few friends that run charter trips I can recommend: 1) Southern Sun Fishing Charters [phone] Capt. Charlie 2) Great Southern Fishing Charters [phone] Capt. Ben 3) Liquid Force Fishing Charters [phone] Capt. Colton They are all excellent Captains. Best to call and find out availability. Be sure to mention Bama Saltwater sent ya!

[@HaiguhChannel]

that was awesome fishing 👍

[@iamquockie]

How do you like that boat winch thing? Thinking about getting one myself but scared the polyurethane pad will scratch the hull or mark it

[@BamaSaltwater]

Thanks!! It can Marr the finish sometimes but it's only superficial. A little bit of wax on the hull and you'll be solid

[@iamquockie]

@@BamaSaltwater thanks bud, I'll be ordering it soon. Makes launching by yourself easier it seems

[@Zachman229]

I got new fishing gear for Christmas so ima check it out and play with it or wutev and c if I learn a few things or so

[@richthomas8758]

I enjoy Gulf Coast fishing. Have you ever thought about doing a meat and great I think a lot of us would like to shake your hand. You have a very nice way about you.

Soon ! I gotta edit the footage!

Do you ever fish chunks of grunt.

A lot for big reds and blues!

[@Sea_Angel05]

Thank you for the info! I was able to tie a dropper rig with your setup, which means I can now tie a double drop rig for my surf fishing! What size circle hook are you using 1/0, 2/0, or bigger? What lb braid are you using?

[@BamaSaltwater]

I like 1/0 and 2/0 circle hooks for surf fishing and 15lb - 20lb braid mainly

[@presidentsniper4462]

Hey Bamma what kind/size hooks are you using here?

[@BamaSaltwater]

My favorite hook (not reef fishing) of all time. Owner 2/0 SSW Cutting Point Hook!

[@presidentsniper4462]

@BamaSaltwater can you possibly do a hook video when you have time? I think it'd be awesome as usual you're biggest fan from Barbados 🇧🇧

[@deegee6477]

How did you solo launch. I hit rewind a few times and can’t seem to see how your boat didn’t float away

I use a quick release mount made by Drotto

Are there bullshark issues like they do in florida?
