I really enjoy your videos. I appreciate how you tell what's going on, what you're catching, the conditions, good to eat or not. You have a no-nonsense way about your presentation, no cussing and no silliness. Looking forward to some more Keys fishing videos.
Fish IDs were Bar Jack, Dog Snapper, and a Sailors Choice “grunt”
Wow I love your videos. No BS, no selling, no heavy metal. Perfect amount of info. That's a lot of action for being in the spot the first time. Love it!
Honestly man seeing you work these lures on these bridges is so refreshing it’s such a different form of fishing from what is normally practiced here and I just really like the video
Super Elias very very habitat 😮 popolato 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟
Elias, you need to link up with Key West Kayak Fishing. That would be a legendary collab. So much knowledge between the two of you lol. Even if y’all just sat down and did a short podcast.
Seeing the Keys has been a dream of mine for a loooong time. I'm loving watching you enjoy that bridge!
that jack was a barjack, and the grunt was a sailors choice grunt. both pretty tasty. that grunt tastes almost exaclty like mangrove.
Thank you for the memories. Born in and lived in Florida most of my adult life. Fished Bahia Honda quite a bit but mostly central Florida. I surely miss my Florida saltwater fishing!
I’ve been watching you for years. I’m just absolutely impressed that you flat out catch em everywhere you go. Love your content one of my fav channels.
Agree…best fishing videos on UA-cam! Have a great time in FL!!
That must be one of the best fishing locations of Earth! Awesome video!
I used to run down to the Keys every winter back in the day. Seeing the bridges and the beautiful green water brings back a lot of good memories. Maybe try Spanish Harbor, it is a little deeper around that bridge. I'm dying to try fresh Yellow Jack!
You seem to amaze me all the time . I really love the buck tale fishing in this video.
Looks like you're having a great time in the Keys. Enjoy, catch a lot of fish, but most importantly, be safe. Happy New Year to you and your family.
@eliasvfishing that snapper was a dog snapper and the jack with a blue line is a barjack. Both edible and great table fare.
Lane snapper
Fishin
we be fishin out here
You are a great teacher and I need to go there. Get some supper! Thanks for what you do.
Great video, happy new year to you and Meg
Thanks!
Such a cool session
Nice variety. Good work as always
I'm loving this excursion! Good fishing
I am going through a tough time right now. Thanks for the great escape via your videos here and on Patreon.
Keeping it real. Another GREAT video.
Love the keys. Best fishing day ever, last month on the Tennessee Reef. More keeper Muttons than you wanted. Also hung and lost my first sail. So many crab trap hazzards.
Awesome Fish. Thank You For Sharing.
I really enjoy watching your videos thank you so much for sharing
lol that last fish took line and left the building, great video
Great fishing 🎣 back-to-back like that. You have a wonderful New Year also EliasV.
Great video as always! I would love to see a catching and cook yellow jack!
Take that Jack and cut it into s into stakes flour it fried real quick and then drop it in some tomato sauce let it cook for a little bit and then put it over white rice
You started getting a different variety towards the end there....that was nice. Great fishing and video as usual!
Great video, Happy New Year!
I’m loving these Florida episodes, being that I’m from Florida haha. Anyways love the videos from wherever you’re fishing
The round fish you were describing were probably Permit. They are in the pompano family and are commonly found around the bridges down there
Exactly what I was going to say. Permit are frequently caught there. Need crabs or live shrimp to catch them.
The Snapper with the yellow tail was a School Master.
Epic day and a beautiful location!
That's my favorite spot in the Keys. We were there in April. I really want to be back there permanently.
Caught 6 cudas beyond there the other day massive fish
Love your video. Keep it coming
Love the variety..
Looks like a Great way to spend the day. Really enjoyed watching you here. I'd add fishing in Fla. Keys to the Bucket list, But got to many things on the list already!
Ty for the great content
Killer video man!! I love it !
serious grunters - love it
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 my instant reaction when you pinched the tail and it was barely short! I knew with your expertise you were bound to come across a black grouper. Truly hope you’d catch a keeper size before the start of 2022! Happy New Years and keep up the amazing videos❤️❤️❤️
Oh, Yellow Jack. Oh man, 1/2" short... You are on the Jacks for sure. May have been a SchoolMaster Snapper. Good to see you down this way having fun. Weather has been great the last few days. Leave me a couple here and there.
I’m in south Jersey looking at my Florida saltwater fishing regs magazine. You were right. Schoolmaster snapper!!
Killed it 💯👍
The bite does slow down when the water slows yet keep fishing the structure. The fish are there waiting the change.
I take my boat from Wilmington to Marathon Fl to fish the 7-mile bridge area also, but I go down there to catch sharks the size of that kayak!
This place is amazing. The fish seem to be coming to the lures like magnet
Great multi specie clip, love it!
The water is so beautiful damn 🔥🙏
I live in Colorado and there’s literally nothing I want more than to just see the ocean and fish it 🙏
Great job !You are a down to earth guy .God bless
Love it my guy
Will be there in a couple days... and will try that bucktail with the plastic shad! And that silver spoon with red teaser! thanks.
African pompano maybe for the fish you saw similar to the spadefish.
African pompano in 10 ft of water lol
Carful around them bridges when releasing fish … great video
Nice fish! Tip...glue a tape measure along your gunnel for easy measuring.
1:45
"I hate this storm."....
I thought he was talking about the weather before I remembered there's a lure company named Storm.
What a fun way to get em at the bridges. Great job. Looks like a lotta fun. Great assortment on artificials. Back in 2002 I was fishing with my buddy who’s a charter fisherman out of north Miami. I would go with him when I had off from work just to help him make money. One day I caught a 29lb yelllw Jack. For shots snd giggles, I checked the record book that night snd found out that I broke the record by 10 lbs. I called him immediately to ask where the fish went. He assured me that it was “sushi” by that point. Lol oh well, at least I have pictures of it. Keep up the great work.
That’s jacked up!!
Boy, the wind really is the big variable for so many outdoor pursuits.
Golleeee that water's pretty
All the fish down there have beautiful colors and markings. Everything up here have dull colors mostly
Bro when he smacks the fish!😂😂😂
those blue spots and the pale white triangle under his eye tells me thats a dog snapper over a schoolmaster but FWC says there almost the same fish XD
Those Yellow Jack's are excellent eating. No limits. Awesome Shashimi.
theres alot of gear on your boat bro. you boys looooooove your toys. heheheh...coool
I really need to get down there and fish that bridge. Always wanted to
I always throw a little ProCure on my jigs or paddletails or whatever I am using around 7 mile bridge. It seems to make a big difference especially on larger fish…….justa little tip for the future!😎
Amazing video
Watching you from the beginning but for some reason I thought I was a subscriber. Absolutely the best ocean kayak fishing content on the tube. I will never have the opportunity to fish in the ocean, so I will stick to my freshwater kayak. I thank Elias for bringing this amazing content so I can enjoy what it may be like to fish in the ocean.
White grunt and a really nice size one, also really good eating 7 on a scale of 1-10
Nice vid
Just one time before my life ends I wanna do a trip like this
The big round ones sound like Permit.
Those are yellow jacks good eating
Love your videos. You're living the dream! Am I right guys? Does anybody want to retire and do the kayak bridge fishing thing full time???????
Schoolmaster. Right in the money! Beautiful snapper and somewhat a rare catch! We used to have a spot off Key Largo where you could go and catch several keepers before they got wise. 🎣😀👍
*on.
Wrong. That's a dog snapper
Ah! By wrong you must mean (W)ould (R)ecommend (O)gling (N)ear-the-eye (G)ilding. Gotcha Erin and right you are!! It’s a dog snapper. I did not notice the light marking under the eye. Looks like you are the schoolmaster! 👍😀🐠
Another great video Elias, I have really enjoyed watching your channel over the years! I’m actually from your neck of the woods in New Bern NC. Just got my first Hobie outback and can’t wait to get out and use it. What are the water shoes you were and do you have any recommendations on safety close, like a wet suit? I plan on fishing all over including the surf.
Good old new Bern. Use to live by the high school whole stationed at cherry point
man
grove snapper are tasty eatings. Back in 2005 when the hurricanes hit there, I was doing disaster restoration helping to rebuild homes. I ate a LOT of mangove snapper just hooked off dead shrimp I bought at publix lol Southern tip Florida is SOOOO much fucking fun for fishing.
Pretty sure the fish at 10:19 is a Sailors Choice Grunt
I believe that was Jill chasing all those Jacks...
Yellow jack also known as bar jack. They are good eating eating
Happy new year to you as well. Hey if you do get a grouper large enough let us know how it taste. It looks like a bass… so…
10:40 Dog Snapper
Wow cool,the lure you use is very killer,hopefully there Will be more streaks,greetings from one hobby from indonesia
i just throw vudu shrimps around the pilings
EliasFishaholic
02:42 almost looks like a Scamp... Pretty close. But think Scamp has more of a uneven tail fin.
Elias, pretty sure that was a dog snapper. Great video. Keep em coming.
Yellowjack is one of my favorite fish for ceviche
That’s was a school master snapper for sure. Good eats imo
I believe it was a schoolmaster snapper and a bar jack, great video.
8:00 lol at that release
those yellow Jacks that you are throwing back are great food fish ! We dont throw them
That one jack you called a blue runner is actually a Barjack if I'm not mistaken or it might just be a nickname. (9:00) They're pretty rare, with exceptional eyesight and are very cautious to even eat live bait. That was a nice catch on lure.
I caught one when I was a kid and it had a knarly parasite crawl out of mouth that looked like a sandflea (mole crab) from hell. I haven't targeted them since.
I know they like sardines, not nearly as fond of pilchards, will eat crustaceans with the right presentation... And love structure like pilings. They use the pilings to forage by quickly zipping around them and catching baits off guard.
It's pretty interesting when you see them because they are almost always in pairs or triples. They are excellent at using each other to corner baits and that's why I believe they're so weary towards fisherman but I know they're eyesight is nothing less than incredible.
At first I thought this could have been a rainbow runner but I remember correctly a rainbow runner has longer, more bullet shaped appearance. But they do start out kind of shaped like that so if I'm wrong stand me corrected.
The parasite you saw that looked like a sand flea from hell (😂) sounds exactly like a parasite I read about recently. I don’t remember the proper name, but they attach to a fish’s gill plate and a mature female will migrate to the fish’s tongue where it gets nourishment by tapping into the blood vessels in the tongue. The tongue eventually dies off from lack of circulation and parasite attaches to the remaining “tongue stump”, effectively replacing the fish’s tongue! It then gets nourishment orally from whatever the fish eats. Fish can live out their lives mostly unaffected (aside from scaring the crap out of a few fishermen here and there). Look up “fish tongue parasite” for some gnarly pics.
@@flyfishizationjones4940 THATS EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS AND WHERE IT WAS. It looked like a "Predator" or "alien" version of a male sandflea.
Good choice soft lure bro... nice... say hi from Indonesia
You need to get out to the channel by the old Bahia Honda bridge. It's around 25 - 30 feet there.
Dangerous with that current though in the yak. It ripssss there
The yellow tailed snapper was a Dog snapper
