@@user-dc9bq1nn9n harbor town marina in Ft. Lauderdale, it’s $20 per night to leave your truck and trailer - 24/7 security guards

@@ReelFamTV i meant where do you usually sail from? I saw the deep drop tile fish video previously, You mentioned you where up near cape Canaveral I think.

@@icarussisyphus5201 thank you so much!!

Hello Eric, shimano makes a deep drop rod called the Talavera. It has great feel and the rod tip is light enough to see the bites but has enough back bone to help winch them up!

That means a lot! Thank you 🙏🏼 💪🏼

Rod - fish.shimano.com/content/fish/northamerica/us/en/homepage/Shimano_Product_Page.P-TALAVERA_BLUEWATER_DEEP_DROP_A.html#product_image_3 Roughly $330 Reel - fish.shimano.com/en-US/product/reels/specialized/electric/a075f00003dsyk1qap.html Roughly $1500

I also have caught them without using a light… however I’ve had better luck using a light, so that’s why I use them. However I think someone that has had better luck without using a light would argue that not using a light IS better. It’s like I always say, there are a million ways to catch a fish, every way is right if it works 💪🏼 tight lines!

It is a Beastmaster

Hey Adam! I purchased the yeti bucket through @yeti - and the weight holder insert is from boat outfitters - Here is the link for it. www.boatoutfitters.com/deep-drop-weight-bucket-storage-insert

@@ReelFamTV thanks mate for quick response 👌👍 From down under Cheers Adam 👌

Hey Stan, they have a battery and last about 300 hours depending on how you take care of them. After fishing, I will rinse them with my fresh water wash down on the boat, dry them off very well, then put them back in the tackle box. After they are dry, they stop blinking. Tight lines 💪🏼

Hey Daniel, yes I do. I feel safe, but anything can happen on the water. It’s always best to have a buddy on the boat in case of any emergencies.

Hello George! Best thing I've found when getting snagged on the bottom is to quickly back the drag off all the way, then tighten it down and try to reel. This typically saves my rigs about 80% of the time. A secondary option is to put your boat in gear and head the direction you were drifting from and hopefully it was just snagged on a ledge, this will free it. I hope that helps!

Definitely different techniques out there for sure! 💪🏼

For deep dropping I use 65lb braid, no top shot, the end is tied in a Bimini twist to a ball bearing swivel with a clip.

Thanks Kevin! I use a GoPro and it has a special setting that helps with rocking. I also use the GoPro “JAWS”, I clip it to the T top tubing for hands free use!

@@ReelFamTV Make sure you leash the camera! I have one sitting on a wreck in 100' of water because I didn't. Now all 4 of mine are always attached by cord leashes. 🙂

Awesome man, I really appreciate it! If you ever need help let me know - I do consult trips. 🤙🏼

Awesome, thank you!!

Thanks Scott! It is a Gemlux bluewater HD 360deg swivel rod holder, it’s 15 degrees. If you don’t have a swivel rod holder, an old school trick is to take an 8oz egg sinker with about 1 ft of mono tied on it, drop it in the rod holder with the tag hanging out (so you can get it back out), it will act as a makeshift swivel with your butt end. Let me know if you need anything else, good luck and tight lines 🤙🏼

Hey Jason! The product is from boat outfitters, called the “deep drop weight bucket storage insert”. Here is the link www.boatoutfitters.com/deep-drop-weight-bucket-storage-insert?gclid=Cj0KCQjw2_OWBhDqARIsAAUNTTHpJmw9TmibXicHVxfaCdfxdJk8hAgK8bxCQHOpbImka7yWOJ9-vc0aAmKxEALw_wcB#216=1213 If you google deep drop weight holder, you will find tons of options and price points!

Hey Matthew, thanks for the question (and great question)! I go braid directly to the ball bearing snap swivel. The knot I use is a “cats paw”. If you’d like a tutorial let me know and I’ll add one! I am sure people have different preferences, but mine is no top shot. Reason for me is that sometimes I am dropping in excess of 900’ and I would think adding mono top shot would increase the line scope. Remember, you want your line to cut through the water so you aren’t paying out thousands of feet of line. Hope this helps!

@@ReelFamTV Thanks, do you make your own deep drop rigs, if so can you maybe do a video on a how to and what size slide swivels you need for 150 lb mono.

Great idea! I’ll add it to my list for sure!

I’d be more than happy to contact you to help, shoot me an email with your phone number - capt_herndo@saltirefishing.com

Thanks!!

Great info!!

Hello Mar Dim, thanks for that! Using the drag to lower the line down gives me more control so there is no snap back in the line. I use to put my thumb on the spool and use the free spool knob, however even shimano recommends not to put your fingers near the spool when in free spool mode. Sometimes we have fish in excess of 8-10lb of lead where we live (Florida east coast). Every area around the world differs based on current.

How are you going to say the man is wrong when every situation is different. You could pull up to a spot one day with 1 knot of current… day later 5 knots. There are currents forever changing offshore. Iv Ben grouper fishing with 3knots of current, moved the boat 300 yards hand had slack tide almost no current. So think before you speak next time bud

Thanks!🤙

if we are grouper fishing I will do a three way but I use a 20oz bank sinker on the bottom swivel and my bait line on the side swivel - that's another video we will be coming out with soon. For deep dropping (300ft +) I typically just use 6lb lead sticks on the chicken rig style set up with my electric reels.

Thank you so much! Make sure you subscribe and keep on the lookout for part 2 in the next few days!
