You’re coming every day this year beautiful!

You’re so cool

😊

100% agree… this was a tournament day so we were only allowed video/photo footage of leader grabs and quick release of the fish. For clients I do my best to grab all faces!

im hoping one day i get one that goes toward the beach so i can get off the boat and get in the water . great footage, thank you@@FishingwithFrankie

@@randomjackson574you’ll get one this year! It has a lot to do with the person driving the boat. You can always wear them out toward the beach and slowly move in as you go for the face grab then revive them to shore… the bigger the fish the harder it is to accomplish this! When you do get one to the beach lmk!!!

it will happen sometime. my guide buddy up in st pete area just let me know he is going scouting pretty quick invited me to go, cant say no to that. no hurry to get a release on the beach, if it happens let it happen organically. im pretty happy with a hookup or two, leader is a bonus, boatside release is something that you cant describe. been fishing my whole life, nothing burns like a poon.@@FishingwithFrankie

@@randomjackson574 facts! Keep me posted! They will be there soon! My season doesn’t start til the end of April, I’m jealous you’re getting on them before me!!

Clients are always stoked to jump in and revive these beautiful fish

Get out there and catch one! I know some people 😂

Got addicted myself, only reason why I even fish for a living 😂

It’s a great spot, at least when there aren’t 20 boats down the line these days

guess you guys messed that spot up@@FishingwithFrankie

@@randomjackson574 you ain’t kidding 😂

Fall and spring when the water temps fall and rise are best. They are always there though year round

Size 2 for both. The bigger for bigger fish but you sacrifice visibility. Whether I’m trolling, inshore or tarpon fishing I always go with the smallest I can get away with. I’d rather get bits and lose fish than not get bites at all. Same holds true ti leader size

Thank you

This was in the spring, early April-ish

J hook bc the bait is moving. Circle hooks are best for still or drifting baits, j hooks are best for trolling especially kings. You’re not trying to hook a king in the corner of the mouth, you want to hook them anywhere on the face. They often “greyhound” baits, any hook (j hook or trebles) you can get in them is a win!

Fishing for a living is a far cry from a weekend warrior, especially someone who guides. Thanks for the comment though

I don’t, I focus my fishing career mostly on tarpon fishing. I have fished many kingfish tournaments though. Speaking of which I haven’t made a video in quite some time. I’m glad these tips are helping people, I appreciate the comment. Most importantly it’s very cool fishing brings you and your family together, that’s awesome!!!

Depends on the rig. 99.99% of the time I used line to line like an fg knot BUT if I’m using a spinner bait, or say anything that spins the line up, I use a swivel to save the braid as it will spin really bad and lose strength and create non stop wind knots

It is

The line to backing connection is so important big game fishing, so us tarpon guides use this knot to make sure the line clears smoothly

I love that! Things were quite different back in the day, miss those days myself

I love it! That’s really cool!

Hahahaha! I appreciate that, my dad loves all of y’all from MN! Thanks for the comment

Pick the right days and you’ll be fine. I always tell offshore guides where I’m at and always have a plb on the boat

Spring

Welcome aboard! I appreciate it

Thank you!

I need to get back in this

Thank you!!!

Will do! Thank you!

Definitely need to! Thank you for the support

Matty Gonzalez is always the star!!!
