    Good trip for both of you-enjoyed.
    I stopped going to the piers for fishing, and if I were still going I wouldn't here in PCB mid-April through early July. I've seen as many as 25-30 runners abusing everyone else on the pier-and when I had to put one on the deck I said no more. That was a good crowd there, would be an enjoyable outing.
    Appreciate the pointer on the black dorsal fin-hadn't learned that. Caught a huge spanish the other day but I talked myself into maybe it was a juvenile king and I let it swim away. Did have the black so it means I released my PB.

The reels are great, and I have never had a problem. You can even run them up on heavier catches. I also run my 1500 on King Mackeral. Definitely compare those reels to Van Staal's

    Steve I want to thank you for the break down of all your lines and tackle I appreciate that part of your videos. Also I want to tell you the education on how you are cleaning this fish is much appreciated too. I would like to see exactly the proper process to bleed out the fish so it can done right if you would show that at some point that would be greatly appreciated . Quick question before I end. Why are the sharks so protected if their population needs thinned out some? Is it a safety issue for people catching them from the park’s perspective or is it just Alabama law to help conserve the population?

    • @BamaSaltwater
      @BamaSaltwater  2 роки тому +4

      Thanks for the kind comment, Alabama allows shark fishing, it's just the Alabama State Park System that does not. I'm not for sure what their exact reason for preventing it is. (maybe because they're dangerous? but so is a lot of marine life.). No clue!

      @@BamaSaltwater DCNR is really weird about their rules regarding shore based shark fishing. they state that it's unlawful to fish for sharks from shore if it presents a danger to swimmers. which is really up to interpretation for the CEO at that point. and the parks are a popular tourist spot so it probably has something to do with that.
      on the park's side of the story i think they state that they're some kind of shark conservation sanctuary
      some people seem to think that you flat out aren't allowed to shore fish for sharks in AL which doesn't seem to be true. but man i can really see where they think that, i wish the laws regarding it weren't so vague.
