Watching more of the video and you are still messing with the drag,leave it the hell alone.
Why?
Bama Beach Bum --Messing with the drag leaves you for the opportunity of having the line break because too tight or in the other direction just outright losing the Fish because of not enough tension, Put the drag fairly snug then leave it alone , The fish will tire out then You can land it
Your action with the pole is just fine, just not messing with drag.
In cases when your using tackle that is rated higher than the weight of the fish you are catching (example 10lb line for a 2lb fish) your strategy is just fine. However, in light tackle situations when the fish weighs more than the tackle you are equipped with (example 30lb fish 17lb line) it is important to allow that fish to pull line easily in order to not take a hard run and snap your outgunned leader or straighten a smaller hook. Once the fish begins to tire then it’s important to begin to tighten the drag in order to be able to pull the fish towards you and gain line without the weight of the fish just pulling out additional drag. Taking a guess on where to set your drag and then just leaving it alone is a big mistake when using light tackle.
Bama Beach Bum , I don’t agree but that is just me and hundreds of others,I have never , I repeat never seen a person who truly knows what they are doing mess with the drag as much as You,one thing You failed to mention is the drag the salt water has on the line, if the fish is taking out line he is not going to break it , but it will take longer to land the fish and tire him out.
So let me sum your strategy up:
1. Hook fish
2. Set drag
3. Don’t mess with drag
4. Cross fingers I set it right regardless of what the heck is on my line.
Got it.
Nothing gives me more pleasure than seeing a big fish landed and then released.
Man watching you fight these fish is raising my blood pressure. You sure know how to work that drag!!! Awesome video!!!
Be honest with you ? I love it when you releasing the catch, just for the fun.thanks for doing this ,great message.
Love the opening with the camera shots and music!! I see your guide "Fred" was with you as well. OMG....that drag just running off does it for me!! Thank you for helping my addiction!! Awesome fish on the beach for catch and release.
Great video bro. I really appreciate the way you revive and release those monsters.
Enjoyed this video a lot! Thanks BBB for sharing such a good day of fishing. Lets all keep safe just for a little bit longer. Tight lines everybody.
Great video...I can’t wait to get back out there here in Panama City, every time I watch one of your videos! Good stuff, Bama!
That was a monster whiting
Brant love to see you on comments that’s awesome
😂
Finally, We get to know the details! That trailer on your Facebook page had us waiting!👀👀
If you aren't on the beach bums Facebook page, you should change that! Great video!🇺🇸
Thanks Dylan!
Great stuff Bro! Keep them coming!
FYI I always have a rag looped around my belt to wipe off my hands. How far out were you fishing from shore? Great. Thanks. Keep the vids coming. It inspires the rest of us.
You the man, good job , My wife & i have caught a few we do a lot of surf fishing ! ...THAT WAS A GREAT DAY , THANKS !!!!
Will be in the area in March. Can't wait! Love your videos.
Thanks for all your great videos (regardless of the drag controversy) I've learned a lot from them. Next time I go I feel like I'm much better prepared. I first tried surf fishing a few years ago and I made a bunch of NOOB mistakes. It won't be for a while (my next trip) but I'll post to let you know how it goes.
Love the intro. Fish bites are my go too also. Keep up the great video's
Wow! Nice video. I live in Charleston, SC and I grew up fishing and did a lot of surf fishing on Folly Beach and Isle of Palms. But I haven't been surf fishing in years. This makes me want to get some gear together and give it a go again. That mic and go pro work really great! Great video quality. I need to rig up just like you do and catch me some Drum!
Great video Sir. That looked like a bunch of fun!
That is a great day of fun right there. It isn't always about the frying pan, and I would love to have a day like that.
Congrats on the PB, they are a fun to catch. I wish, I had measured my biggest one last year.
You are a remarkable skilled fisherman - very entertaining and educational at the same time your communication is awesome while you maintain your cool at the same time. It's nice to see people enjoying themselves while most of us are on lock down.👍👍
This is my 1st time seeing someone land fish with grace with such control.
There's always a bird standing in the background watching you :D
Epic fishing today! Awesome job!
Awesome!! Love hearing that drag scream!!
What a day!!! Congrats, man. I need a new vid on how you tie your rigs. Please.
Hell of a day young man!!! well made video!! keep after that PB 40 incher!!
You are slaying the drum! Nice catches!
Absolutely great fish, keep your lines tight and "Drag" on .!!!!! lol love your video's, dont let the JC's (John Campbell's) bug you,
Awesome Matt well done buddy looks like those fish gave you a wiping lol I would love to see a night time video compare to day better???? Keep it up
Great video Bama!
Yea that second drum might be a hybrid I caught one was gold in color I thought for sure it was a bull red until I got my hands on em . Red and black drum hybrid it’s a thing 🤷♂️
Awesome video man! Keep up the great work!
Awesome day bro! Those were some biggy's, nice of you to put out that buffet , the fish seemed to enjoy all the flavors and stations 😅 Aloha and God bless you brother
Good man for returning them to fight another day.
I did mention is an earlier video that I'm new sub from way up in the southern plains of the Panhandle of TX. Really like your channel and the way you present it. Yeah I bank fish but not beach. My wife and I like Fred, your small fish chaser, and saw him in this video. He's a lurker in the background. Nice fish buddy, all of them. Maybe you should drop out one rod and bait. That in itself has you running a lot. Look forward to more vids. Fish on and stay a Bum!!
Kirk n TX.
Awsome job, Mathew.
😁💪🏻👍👍👍👍

Ya got a real workout with these fish. Way to go Matt. Yer " PB " on Black Drum is just around the corner . This will be real cool to see . Tom Daytona Beach, FL.
That black drum with spots was a really unique cool catch! . I havent gotten into black drums yet this year. Love the drum sounds
Near 60k. Good job. 1st fish Foul hooked ,you felt it & would know so ok.. early in the video. I believe you’re working with circle hooks. You handled it just right. Getting those skills honed in better and better each day. Keep it up ...take care
I bought the Penn Spinfisher VI 8500 live liner for the surf after really being impressed with the 4500 model. It makes drag management on spiked rods an absolute breeze. Okuma makes a decent 8000 bait runner, and Shimano too. You might love them.
Excellent fishing tips. Great video.
I haven’t even caught a black drum yet so you’re wayyyy ahead of me
Enjoyed the video! fish bits can catch a variety of fish even monsters!
When fishing for the ponderous beasts of offshore, blue water,drag is constantly adjusted,no reason NOT to use the techniques from the beach. Great job BBB.
Awesome vid man. I have a Battle 2 5000 and love it. I was thinking about getting a 6000 soon as well. It’s just about tarpon time down here in South Florida!
That 38 inch black was really nice 👍 never seen spots like before that’s why i love fishing always some cool and different you just never know continued success and blessings
You caught some fine drum specimens there! 👍😺
Nice man and on the Dagger!!!!!!
Awesome catch!!!
Congrats on the PB Bama!! Stud!
You put them back! That's a feast for many! A cooler full.
Fried drum. Grilled drum. Cajun Broiled drum. Drum tacos. Drum salad. Drum soup......
@@barrykelly2722 You got it right Barry....
The big ones are usually full of worms 🐛
Nice catch and nice release. Great job 👏🏻
What a fantastic day... Thanks for sharing it...Best regards from libyan surfcaster
Worn Out...
Let us all be worn out by catching big fish such as your black drum...
Your happiness of catching big fish transfers to all fishermen...
Thanks Matt!
Now, they were beasts. Well done you.
Sick intro!! Love the edit!!!
Hi there hows your day been hope your safe and well my dear peace be with you always ✌🕊🙏
I caught a 41” black drum once, and my husband kept reaching over and letting out the drag. I think I remember he was hooked on the body near the dorsal fin. Took me over 30 minutes to get him in!!
Awesome catch👍🤙
love your videos,Matt !!!
You’re fishing my hometown...I’m from Mobile. I grew up off of the DIP not too far from the Loop. Glad I found your channel.
dang those are some big fish!!! awesome session beach bum :)
Awesomeness bro! 👍🏽🔥
Awesome catch!
so frustrating wen the fish plays dirty trying to get ur line in a mess and after all that hard work only to lose it. gr8 catches off the beach
Good video, but always remember to put as much drag as you can onto the fish without breaking the line....reminds me of the first Black Drum I ever cought....it was on a 7 foot ugly stick,(I believe it was a medium heavy action rod), and a Mitchell 300 spooled with 20 ib spiderwire, as soon as I hooked him,(which was in the eye) I locked the drag down, (which was about 15-20 IBS) and it took about 10 minutes to get him to the pier....but I understand where your coming from when it comes to light tackle....
I tell you what, I will make a bet with you...don't worry, its a simple bet. Me and you in a surf fishing competition, whoever catches the most of a certain species of fish wins, to make it an even match we would use the same rig, hooks, and bait....You can name anything on your part of the bet.....but if I win, you have to let me take you fishing with me when the jacks, Tarpon, and reds are running at the end of the pier, and of course teach you some of my secrets in catching some of the big boys 🐟🐟🐟...... Do we or do we not have a deal?🐟 🎣
Great work brother!
Love that intro!
Nice fish, Awesome job man.. 🤙🤙🤙
I can't believe those lil fish bites work like that, wow! I would be using some Big live bait, or topwater early, but I'm a hillbilly from WV.
Keep fighting the fish the way you want.... it seems to work fine! In Hawai'i where I'm from, the serious shore anglers are trying for Ulua (giant Trevally). They adjust the drag just like you to avoid having the line break... Aloha.
New subscriber, and I am digging your channel. I haven't seen spots on a Black Drum either! Very cool.
Great Videos makes me want to head down that way
great video and however you did it you DID it. so great work all around
That was awesome, those things were tanks. Great video
Mark Walberg fishing 🎣😂
Great video bro!!!👍🙏🎣
Nice catch!!!
Nice fish!! By the sound of the fight I thought it was a ray!
Really awesome Video! I can see how they wore you out! PB!!!
What a fun day! Heading your way in first part of April, hope to see you on the beach somewhere. Been watching all your surf fishing videos, can’t wait to get down there. During the first part of April what is usually hanging around?
Good catch bro!
Awesome catches!!!!
Im from phillipines you are very cool ..more fish to catch bro .
I love fishing :)
Do you recommend large surf fishing rods even when fishing close? I live a little further north so I typically just bring my 7'6" MH with fast action and haven't had many issues. I have been wondering about the 10'+ rods.
Tremendous fishing and video 👍👍
Muito top esse peixe.. parabéns
Going thru bad times, been to fort Morgan many times, your a true inspiration, can't get motivated, to fish anymore, but you keep dream alive, my dream is to fish with Peyton Manning, Tim tebow, uncle Lou, and you of course, trying my best to get sober, need to get back to be fishing, and the exact spot where your fishing, you really are a blessing at 3 in the morning, trying to detox, keep making videos
Hope you get better Glen
Nice catch
Great catch
Love your content! Wanted to know what size hooks your using? Still using around a 1/0 like you do for whiting/Pompano or something bigger? Going surf fishing in the outer banks this May and want to be prepared. Thanks! Keep up the great work man!
Oh I am so excited good video guys especially let them go thank you
He was slap-a-da-bass man. 🤣😂🤣😂
Lol I played bass for over 10 years at church and in a few bands. This is always funny to me.
Based on this ridiculous fine show I pulled the trigger on a 11' Ninja Tackle Dagger. Thanks too for the discount code. I've never fished the surf. and now I can. I have an old, but in great shape, Penn 550SS which should be good on this pole. A bit heavy but I'll leave the 50lb braid on it for now.
I'll be checking your videos out regular now. Great freakin, fruckin video. Peace!!!
Congratulations on the PB even if it wasn't over 40. Remember it's not always about the size of the fish, but the size of the fight in the fish. Fun times!
Congrats on the donkeys!!!! Great video!
Love this stuff...
A pescaria e um momento de lazer gosto muito pesco varoa peixe eu moro no Brasil aqui Érico em termo de peixes 🎣 parabéns pra vcs
Man that was awesome 👍
Starting to work on them producing skills, huh? (nice intro) Definitely added something to this video.
Respect for your fishing
