- The Spanish Mackerel have officially shown up and with that comes the Googans. Spanish Mackerel are one of my favorite fish to target and spanish mackerel can be great table fare as well. Watch out for the Googans and get out there and smash some Spanish Mackerel while you can!

love your videos teaches me something new every time I watch
Thanks so much buddy. I really do enjoy the explaining side of it.
Another great video buddy! Glad you were able to get on them! I tried yesterday and couldn’t get on any. Maybe next time.
This video was yesterday morning but they shut off really early... I actually got skunked today so it's def. right place, right time.
Good stuff Eric! Will hopefully be right behind ya and out there soon myself if this wind ever chills out! Also screw that guy in the middle lol.
I appreciate you brotha. I’m shocked to see them so early but I’m not complaining.
I got there a little later than I planned, probably during you're last 15 minutes. saw you hook up on someone's line. I can't believe how many boats were out there on a Monday morning. after you left someone came trolling right over the structure, needless to say he snagged 3 lines. glad to see that you had a good morning.
Sorry I couldn’t talk to you buddy. I got so mad about that I had to go…
Hopefully this means that we are going to have a strong year for spanish! Can't wait to pop some gotcha's on the pier.
I’m shocked that they are here like this already. I saw them busting in the surf yesterday so it’s Gotcha time…
I used to load up on Spanish and Blues using 3" piece of McDonald's drink straws with water bubble. I sure miss the coasts. I build rods, for long long casts, inevitably when I'd start hauling them in people on the shore or pier would get as close to me as possible. They still didn't catch much if any, using heavy line no casting distance. They even got mad because I'd catch almost every cast, them 0. Same kind of folks that get right in the middle.
I’d love to see an example of your rig. That’s pretty cool.
Just found your channel, great videos! Keep up the good work. I also fish out of a small boat but have only done inshore fishing around Wilmington. What inlets and weather conditions do you recommend and are there any I should avoid?
Hey dude, I'm happy to have you join along and thank you very much. I just did a podcast with my buddy where we highlight exactly what you need to know. It is kinda long but Lex also fishes locally and you could learn a lot from him as well. ua-cam.com/video/loJsbqVBOGk/v-deo.html
Just found the channel and subbed... cant believe you guys have them this early. I hope we get good run of the up in NJ this year, both are my favorite species to target. And waaaaaay to many boaters now like that last one. They have to stop in the middle of a school being worked, it amazes me how many people don't have common sense and feel so entitled.
Yeah man. We were all working together until he came in and jacked it up. I hope they show up soon for y’all. They are about a month early here…
Also, thanks for the sub buddy.
Wow, that is early for Spanish.. I guess you are a farther south than me, but still early. Good job as always.
I’ve never seen them show up at the same time as the Bonito. It’s wild…
Shit man, I’ve had googan slowly creeping into exactly where I cast and sit right on top of of it. I didn’t say a word and spun the prop extra hard in their direction and they get it.
My little 40 horse would look like a water hose, sending spray across the way 😂
Hey Bud!!.... it has been a while!! Another great video!!
Hey dude. I’ve been busy getting skunked down here 🤣
@@ericwilliamsfishing at least you're getting out on the water. All I'm getting out on is the Deere 🤣
@@JDWynn80 haha. That’s a good point. Aren’t too many Deere’s in Wilmington. Lol.
Are you taking a 16' open skiff out of Masonboro? If so, tip of the hat to ya!
Back in the early 90's, we used to run out to the Liberty Ship in a 13 Whaler and then go diving, leaving the boat unattended, lol.
Yeah man. It's super doable on the right conditions - which you understand yourself. Y'all are brave diving the ship. I have seen a 10-12' shark on that before.
I have the same trouble when i'm striped with Fishing. And it's always the big expensive boats. Guaranteed to mug you every time. People with money don't care about you? Enjoy your video
I try not to take it too personal but when 15 boats are working together, I have to say something to the 1.
Doing work son!! Pretty work! Let’s throw hands!! Boy I’d be in the water like a duck dog!! Coming aboard!! Looks like tons of fun, but boy I’d be fired up!! Just takes one dipstick to ruin it for everyone else. Great video Eric!!
Thanks buddy. Yeah, the guy did end up moving but I was over it shortly after. I hope I never have to throw hands over a fish 🤣
@@ericwilliamsfishing me either!
Nice drag screaming video 👍 Pro Tip...if your gonna catch big ol fish your gonna have to step up your cooler game 😜#bigcooler
It’s been so tough for me lately I didn’t even think about taking out the little cooler 🤣
Nice video, man. Do you think it's possible to still get on those fish without electronics?
Thank you. You would have to be lucky and catch them around the Jetty. Spanish for sure but Bonito would be tough.
Good seeing you out there today - we made our youtube debut at 1:39 on here trolling by. We were both rubbernecking so hard to see what you had on, I remember saying to my buddy "Gonna go ahead and say thats not a blue" haha. Total zoo out there today though man, glad you got some!
Haha. I’m gonna go back and watch for your boat. Lol.
@@ericwilliamsfishing 😂 you came over and chatted with us for a bit right before heading back to the jetty. We should have followed you in then ha
@@thebert010 I got you. Now I can put a name to a face. Haha. Glad I got a chance to see you in person and next time - I need to get closer because these eyes ain't what they use to be.
@@thebert010 I've been Jonfished.
@@ericwilliamsfishing 😂😂😂
Is it the right time of year to find Spanish at any inlet? Anniversary is coming up 4/20-24 I’ll be down at the coast with my boat hope to get the wife on some for her first time
It’s early compared to most years so I’m not sure how this will play out in two weeks.
Great video, Im curious what you do with the bonita. Do you eat them or use for bait? I tried to eat one once and it was pretty bloody and not to tasty. They are lots of fun to catch though!
These are actually Atlantic Bonito and a different fish than “Bonita”, which is what most people think we are catching. Bonito with an O are very good to eat and similar to Tuna.
@@ericwilliamsfishing Thanks Eric, I did not know that. Thought they were all Little Tunny,s. Learn something everyday. I googled them to see the difference and its crazy how similar they look but totally different.
@@skingrafix9549 yeah man. We only get them about a month a year since they are highly migratory.
What lure did you use ?? And where were you fishing like state or inlet because I'm from Virginia and wondering where they are at
This is southern NC, 1oz pink Gotcha Jigfish. I’m not familiar with catching them in VA.
Nice work! The last couple times I’ve been out there, it’s been a complete madhouse and almost had people run right into my boat a few times.. i need to try the jigging action, looks pretty fun. Since I don’t have a trolling motor, is it easy enough to anchor there if I beat the crowd? Just don’t want to mess anyone else up if there’s an anchor line in the mix of that parking lot
You can anchor but expect to lose a few with the amount of stuff on the bottom. I don't think your anchor line with mess anyone else up and I wouldn't be concerned with that aspect. Yeah, it is and the window is really short on when you can catch fish before there is too much pressure.
@@ericwilliamsfishing you got that right, I thought I was doing good getting there 15 minutes before sunrise Monday morning but already had a crowd there. Probably would’ve helped if I anchored and jigged but I tried trolling instead and got skunked. First year going after AB
@@KiLlermidet yeah man. Unfortunately the calm days are pretty much shot out there.
I thought combat fishing only happened on the bank...lol
Not with all these fancy boats around. Haha.
That is just what the dr ordered!
Thanks so much brotha.
Looks like fun! Just found your channel. How big is that boat you are on?
Still not as crowded as the Columbia river while salmon season is happening. Lol
Hey dude. I’m on a 16’ skiff so I’m the little guy. Haha. I feel for you in salmon season…
@@ericwilliamsfishing it can be a nightmare for sure. That's a small boat for what you are doing isnt it? I have a 18' welded aluminum boat I use here. It does just about everything I ask it to. What part of the state are you in? I used to live I Beaufort, when I was stationed at cherry point, and I'm planning to move back in the next couple years.
@@BoringFisherman yes it’s very small for the ocean but it’s kinda my budget for now. I’d ideally like a 23’ish for the future. I’m in Wilmington.
@@ericwilliamsfishing nice! I'll need a fishing buddy whenever I move back. Can take my boat lol
@@BoringFisherman that’s really nice of you to offer but it’s a struggle balancing everything I’m already doing. UA-cam is going to slow down in the coming months due to this recession.
Unfortunately that's in shore fishing for you the jetties are the biggest problem there's too many boats and not enough water what burns me up as when I go 20 miles offshore and somebody pulls right up on top of you
I don’t have a boat to get out there yet but that’s the plan. Slowly work my way out to avoid people.
Crushed it Eric!!
Thanks, Jacob. I appreciate you.
What bait is that? I’ve seen it before but can’t place it in my head
Gotcha Jigfish 1oz.
Where you fishin at?
Wrightsville Beach NC
What made you pick this spot?
It’s a massive piece of high relief structure.
Where were you fishing?
Inlet, wreck, other?
AR Wrecks.
GREEN BRUH 😎
That’s what they were using. Haha.
Agree... don't be that guy. Never understood why folks do stuff like that. And it could be an accident, right... just didn't realize what he was doing... but once you do realize, then man up and move outside the circle.
Sadly, word gets out a lot faster these days when the fish show up, so everybody shows up at the same time. I'm glad you and some of the other folks are doing your channels and the social media reports, and I really do enjoy them... but man, it has made it harder to get in on early action, especially in well-known places.
I’d say it was an accident if he wasn’t taking the boat in and out of gear to stay in the circle. I let it go for a few minutes before it got too frustrating for me. The fish are here and constantly moving so it’s not as simple as go catch. I got skunked on Bonito today with no boat pressure. Thanks for watching man. It means a lot.
@@ericwilliamsfishing I enjoy the vids, amigo, and yeah... sometimes I give benefit of the doubt even when it's not deserved.
Anyway, at least you're getting out there. More than I can say right now... this adulting stuff is for the birds!
@@Elwing1 I adult just enough to get by. Haha.
Where are you fishing out of
Wilmington North Carolina.
@@ericwilliamsfishing nice awesome catch bro!
@@christministrysquadjohnthe9259 thank you buddy.
I can't stand people that do that..... But hey, at least the Spanish are here!
Yeah man. It was pretty inconsiderate but yeah dude - they are here.
Where is this?
Southeast North Carolina.
@@ericwilliamsfishing nice, very nice, thanks
Yes sir.
Yep, I thought I would get away from Muppets when I got my boat, NOPE... Grabbed a pedal drive kayak and can finally get away from 95% of them while inshore fishing (Florida flats)...it's unfortunate but down here you need to look stone faced and nasty the minute they see you otherwise they'll anchor 2 feet from your spot ..
I can’t imagine the amount of pressure y’all get down there. I’m really jealous because of the different types of fish that you can target but I do bet y’all see a lot more people doing it.
It can get crazy here sometimes , it's only annoying because we have so much water to fish for 12 months a year and people still manage to cast over your head... Endless coastline, jetties, inshore flats , neverending mangroves, we basically live IN water....you can forget fishing from land in a tourist area, set rigs as far as the eye can see just soaking in the best spots for hours trying to catch Spanish mack... Every once and a while I'll blow their mind and wing a spoon over their head, flip a 40in mack over the rail and walk away....
@@theloosemoose8200 that’s while that they use a set rig for Spanish. I’ve never heard of that.
@@ericwilliamsfishing nobody has...haha.. that's tourist for ya.... I've seen people throwing top water plugs at schools of pompano, you have zero chance of landing a pomp like that but they'll keep trying...down here you'll know all the good land fisherman instantly, they dont smile and will never make eye contact unless they know you ...it's survival of the fittest...
@@theloosemoose8200 I’m so jealous of y’all’s fishery. Haha.
😡😡😡😡😡not stoked about that. Thinking I’ll stay away from the crowds even if it means less fishing more scouting.
You will learn a ton by doing that.
@@ericwilliamsfishing lord knows I’ve got a lot to learn out there.
