    The pier was closed for almost 9 months (265 days) between the refit and post hurricane repairs. Yes, I counted (and cried) every one of them ;-) lol

    Here in South africa we call them Crackers or cracker shrimps, scientific name Calianasa krausii. Excuse spelling... We normally bunch them about 3 or 4 at a time so little peckers dont completely eat them before bigger fish get to them

    Those ghost shrimp are called yabbies or pink nippers here in Oz (it changes from one to the other depending on which state you're in) and they're an excellent bait. Sometimes you can find someone who sells them but 99% of the time people pump their own at low tide. Anyone who fishes saltwater regularly has a bait pump for them. We use the same basic rig you are using but the hook is usually a long shank worm hook or an Aberdeen hook you'd know it as. Aberdeen hooks are also very good for dead prawns (shrimp). Feed the point of the hook in from the tail to the head just as you did with the ghost shrimp. If you get a larger prawn you turn the hook as the point comes out between the front legs and turn it back into the body then hald hitch a loop around the tail and it lays out nice and flat like it's alive. This is a rig just about every Queenslander learns as a child and it produces just about anything you might want to eat.

  • @ncoutdooradventures6148
    @ncoutdooradventures6148 3 роки тому

    One of the reasons I subscribed to your channel was because you primarily surf fish,, with the occasional boat/kayak trip, or jetty,, or pier. I'm just the opposite. I primarily pier fish (mostly because I work there), with the occasional surf trip, or fishing the sound from the shore (I don't have a boat,, yet!). Our season is closed right now,, all our fish are down south for the winter, or in the creeks that flow into the sound, and we don't really expect to see anything until around the kiddo for March, then we start seeing some kingfish (aka - sea mullet, whiting, Virginia mullet, roundhead), then as the water warms up, we'll start to see some blues, spanish mackerel, king mackerel, red drum, black drum, sheepshead, trout, flounder, puffers, pompano, and a few other fish.
    You really need to come up here to Topsail Island, and get in on some of the action!

    I recommend a knocker rig for the sheepshead, can’t feel the bite on a Carolina too well. With a tight line and knocker you can feel the subtle tap much better. Also try chumming with oysters or crab parts that’ll fire em up a bit. I also rig a raw oyster for bait and it never fails.
