Almost Got Spooled. Shark hit like a freight train. surf fishing Padre Island National Seashore.
Переглядів 1,5 тис.4 місяці тому
Had this shark on for 30 minutes. I managed to get him close to shore before the shock leader knot separated at the main line. The knot had a large amount of seaweed stuck on it i wonder if that caused the knot to fail. Comment if anyone has had that experience. The shark was not really that big i believe it was foul hooked that's why it fought so hard. Thanks for watching Louie

The excitement of catching Jack Crevalle from the beach. Mr Jack can rip your tackle to shreds if you are not prepared. Nothing like watching Jacks rushing bait up onto the beach.

Thanks! Louie I'll go in at 5 and up too 10, You won't miss my 13 fters and holders ! Hope the bite is on !
Sounds Great
Can't wait too drop a line or two come Dec ,Jan, and Feb.
Sounds like a plan. I can't wait for the winter months. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Yep, drone footage is great. Thanks much sir. Really enjoy your videos. I’ve been struggling to catch good size whiting lately. Both at mustang and on PINS. Not sure what’s up because it’s kind of unusual to not at least catch a few decent sized whiting as a fallback species. They are tasty though so not sure why I call them a fallback species. 😂😂
Thanks I plan on using it on our gold prospecting trips out west. Thanks Louie
hell yeah bro the drone is a major necessity
Cool right
Work
Cool
Great video!!! Loved how the drone kept you centered. Keep up the good
Thanks 👍
Darn hardheads
a lot better filming with a drone and the camera in the surf
Thanks Brother
Nice shark! Thanks for showing how to get the hook off of the fish!
Thanks glad you enjoyed it
I know right I learn so much from him hes so cool
I was very impressed by the drone footage, so professional!! As someone who hasn't done much fishing in their life, i find your videos very interesting and funny lol. Keep up the great work my man! love how private the beach is also lol.
Thanks I'm glad you enjoy them. I don't always catch alot of fish but always enjoy being out in nature. Thanks for the comment.
Thanks I'm glad you enjoy them. I don't always catch alot of fish but it's great being out in nature thanks for the comment.
Love the drone footage!
Thank you
At least you're giving it hell Louis 🎣🏝️
Thanks Louis. I went out for a while in the surf north of fish pass yesterday nothing but stingrays and hardheaded 🙁
You can make shark caldo.
Shark Caldo sounds tasty! Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment.
Lately, I get so dizzy fishing on the surf. I don't know why I have to be clear out of the water more than 5 feet to fish.
Yep you have to watch out for those sharks 😃 Tight lines. Louie
You used the cut whiting, I'm curious why you didn't cut up the lady fish/skip jack aka redfish candy.
Good question I've always had better luck on cut whiting but maybe the reason I haven't tried cut skip jack that much. I'll give it a try next time. Thanks for the suggestion and the comment. See ya on the sand Louie
Looks like you are getting good with the cast net
Thanks
Love your fly fishing segments. Thanks sir. On your long rods, which gut can you reach? Thinking about purchasing. I know Nick can reach the Yucatán(minor exaggeration but you get the point) but he’s had a life time of practice. Oh well, just curious. Thanks again.
A little bit past the second gut or so . I enjoy the fly fishing also. Thanks for the comment . Tight lines Louie

South Texas in the USA. Thanks for watching thanks for the comment.
@@louisraatz5049 hope one day you will invite me for fishing adventures?
Hello watching you from Dubai UAE I love fishing too❤❤❤

@@louisraatz5049 mullet,milk fish,kruper, snarpers,barracuda, seebrim,and others
@@armstrongtawiah1370 That sounds like fun!
Nice production on the opening shot!
Thanks I appreciate you noticing. Just woke up at 3 am thinking about catching Jack Cravelle on the fly rod and can’t go back to sleep. I must be hooked. Pun intended Louie.
Nice screen grab of the wreck!
Thanks Bud
Nice video, I like shoulder mount
Thanks for the comment

Those boards are crazy sticking up like that!
Thanks for watching 👍
Thats actually a 311 - lotta folks say its for migrants
Thanks for the comment thanks for watching. That seems logical. I've seen a fair amount of migrants on the beach over the years. Tight lines Louie.
Doing good... Loved the camera angles
Thank you Brother I appreciate the comments. Tight lines Louie
Heading down there this weekend I hope the weather holds up
Hopefully it will. I plan on fishing Saturday with my daughter. At least that's the plan. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Why do you work your thumb side to side when reeling in?? Doesn't it wind up correctly by itself?
The reels I have don't have a levelwind that's why I have to use my thumb. The levelwind mechanism can affect casting distance. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
I was out there Friday and Saturday around 15MM the seaweed was horrible! Looks like it’s cleared out.
@@billulu5602same here last Thursday. Marker 15. Was a battle but caught some whiting. Well earned whiting for sure.
Pure Zen. Thanks for a great video sir.
@@billulu5602 it was not bad. there was some but definitely very fishable at the spots stopped. I did not fish north of about 28 on the ride north. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Loved the view of the beach at 4:21! Makes me want to be relaxing there!
Thank you
Great video Louie 🙌👏. ThT looks like a great time with the fly rod and a lot of fun. You got pretty good at it. Way to go man 😊
Thanks. It’s kind of addicting. Hope you are doing well. Louie
good evening Louie!!! Love fishing PINS. 😊
Yep it's a magical place. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Just subscribed! Love PINS
Thanks for subscribing. Tight lines Brother.
Loved the video! Thanks for showing different types of ways to catch fish! Fly fishing seems like there is more action since your always moving instead of waiting!
Thanks
Your videos keep getting better and better!
Thanks
Your fly. Size? My wife and I love fly fishing in freshwater and that looks like something we’d love to try. Something completely zen about fly fishing. Have you ever gotten into the Spanish with your fly rod?
Haven't caught any Spanish yet maybe in the this fall. On my bucket list is to catch a Jack Cravelle over 40 inches on the fly. I had an opportunity in the spring but did not have the fly rods with me. Now I carry them from the spring until the start of winter so I'll be ready. As far as fly size from size 8 to 1/0 hook size. I'm a rank amateur fly fisherman but learning all the time. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Hello I have been meaning to show a pic of the flies i have been using. if you check out the community on my youtube channel you can see a few. the ones at the top are ones i tied and they work just as well as the pretty store bought ones
@@louisraatz5049 thank you
Thanks a bunch for sharing the info on that Garmin device. That’s a GREAT insurance policy. Worth every penny.
Yes it's great to have a reliable way to communicate with little or no cell service. It keeps my wife happy to know I'm ok. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Are the jetty's the end of PINS?
Yes 60 miles south of the end of the pavement. Thanks for the comment. Louie
Hey Louie, how far isa it from the entrance to Liitle Shell/Big Shell?
Little shell starts at 13 miles down ending around 17 miles. Big shell starts around 17 and ends around 27 or so. The big shell area is also known as the high banks. These areas change slightly from year to year due to slight current and tidal variations. Thanks for the question. Louie
Thanks Louie, appreciate you and really enjoy your videos..Tight lines brother, aloha!
Which country are you doing this nice video? Do you know I thought is only some part of Africa that we have rabish in our beaches
This in the USA . South Texas. Google padre island national seashore. Thanks for the comment.
Me. Louie. Are The jetties you’re referring to. Are they the port Mansfield channel jetties?
Yes the Port Mansfield Jetties. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
Great video Louie. Looks like a great time out there and you got a nice red for dinner. Great stuff 👏 👍 👌
Thanks. hopefully the water will clear out soon and the fishing will improve. It's always good to be at the beach.
Keep the videos coming!!
You got it love making them.
Looks like nice driving and a great way to enjoy life
Thanks for the comment. Very relaxing down there.
How was the drive to get to 55?
Easy driving. A little soft in the high banks but not bad. Thanks for the comment. Tight lines Louie
@@louisraatz5049 keep up the good work
Definitely need the generator and Ac if you plan on camping..
For sure. Thanks for the comment. Have a great day Louie.
