Thank you for taking the time to explain things and sharing your knowledge.
Thanks a boat load for watching and leaving some excellent feedback. I truly appreciate it and your support for the channel. It's my pleasure to share, fishing is meant to be fun. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
Dude..... I've been binge watching your clips. You are SUCCESSFULLY talking me out of off shore fishing. It is a lot of work. A lot of gear. A lot of fuel. A lot of REELING. A lot of chop....I can not THANK YOU enough. Most clips make it look like a beautiful stroll in the park. Your clips show REALITY. I'm going to stick to flipping baits to rocks, docks, grass and mangroves.
Awesome work Capt. Great info here. Keep the boat in gear on hookup = Yes. Keep light-tight, yes, and clicker off!! LOL. Can't believe you were out in 900ft and someone crossed you. Unbelievable how many times that happens to me too. That's the main reason I never fish on the weekends. Thanks for sharing.
Sure
Thanks a million for watching and always being here and sharing some insight. There are the basics that you have to understand in order to be successful and get the meat on the deck. All the other stuff is about fishing, not catching... LOL... yea, he got pretty close, way closer than it looks on film. I saw him running up, and figured he was gonna come by and toss in some lines because I was hooked up, but when he crossed right behind me.... that blew my mind. Then He proceeds to start flat lining out baits and asks me if I'm OK? what do you? Laugh or just shake your head? Funny thing is, is it was a solo schoolie. Anyway, thought I'd share that with you. And yes, weekends can be brutal. Thanks for everything. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great explanations on your part!
Awesome video!
Nice video! I went out and caught some bluegill over the weekend, fish is fish and can’t complain
Good eating and fun to catch. If they got up to 5 pounds they'd be tough to stop.
@@pakde8002 Agreed, the biggest I caught is about a pound and they gave a good fight
Hi Alex, thanks for watching and always being here and sharing your experiences. So, I am the self-proclaimed world's worst fresh water angler, but I have caught blue gill. Not the 1 pound size, the tiny ones on bread balls, then my saltwater fishing pirate side kicks in and I hook it through the back with a big red circle hook and feed it to the LMB waiting. That's pretty much why I stick to the ocean :)))) Always a true pleasure hearing from you and having your support for the channel. And yes, fish is fish, couldn't more accurate. Tight lines & take care ;)
Capt Heath,
I know this is a family friendly youtube channel and trust me I know what you really wanted to say, good job keeping your composure when Mr Googan decided to run all over you. I enjoy watching your videos, hopefully we can get some better days up here in NC to get into the bite. Great job again and tight lines.

Thanks a million for watching and sharing your view. I truly appreciate it. He was a lot closer than it looked on film. Funny thing is, he dropped out flat lines to see if I was on a school, then asked if I was OK? Really??? Anyway, it was a solo schoolie, so he was wasting his time and proving to be an arrogant, selfish, amateur, who is willing to ruin other angler's prospecting for personal gain. I'm sure inexperience had nothing to do with it, as I was 12 miles out... Newbies and renters don't go there, so it was just some inexcusable foolishness. Regardless, it happens, so I just shake it off and keep on, keepin' on. Hope you do get some good weather and fish moving in soon, so you can let the good times roll. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly appreciate it. Couldn't do this without you. Tight lines & take care ;)
Hi Heath, Another great "How To" video. A Mahi and a Tuna is a very good day. Plenty of food for the family. Don't you just love it when you're out in the ocean and some guy in a boat decides to come close to you. There's millions of square miles of open water and they feel the need to get close to you. You had a very successful day and a good time, so all ended well. Say "Hi" to the Fish Slayer and the Fishing Girls for me. Take care and I'll talk to you on Thursday, Mickey
Hi Mickey thanks for watching. Yea, he was a lot closer than it looked on film. Funny thing is he started dropping out lines to see if I was on a school of dolphin, then he asked if I was OK? that kind of irked me. But oh well, it was just a single mahi, so his amateur maneuver made no sense and proved to be useless. I get it, that way offshore, anglers are curious when they see other folks hooked up, but carelessness can put a damper on someone else's good time. regardless , like you said all ended well. Avi says "Hi Mickey, hope you're doing well." Thanks again for always being here and sharing your thoughts. See you on Thursday. Take care :)
Hi Heath, Tell Avi that I'm looking out the living room windows at horses and donkeys in the pasture behind the house. If you want to see where I live, look up 3630 Wilcox Rd. Poplar Bluff, MO 63901, on Google Maps. Glad you're all well. See you Thurs. Take care, Mickey
Thanks Heath, another great video. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some great feedback. Makes all the endless effort and sleepless nights completely worthwhile. It's my pleasure to share. Fishing should be fun and productive for everyone. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great tutorial Heath! I just ordered some of those mini slammers. We have some googans here in NC too.
Thanks a boat load for watching and always being here and sharing your positivity. The turbo slammers are kinda like bacon :)))) There's a shortage happening though, every outlet I use on line and retail don't have them. I'm trying to get about 5 or 6 more before may starts but might have seek an alternate. I would say the fella was inexperienced at boating and maritime courtesy, but I was 12 miles out, newbies don't go there... so that was just a blatant foul. Oh well. Some folks, right? Thanks again for all your support. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great work Heath!!! I mean, what fish doesn’t like a mini turbo slammer!!! Personally, I’ve moved away from conventional reels altogether except for Wahoo fishing. I find myself trolling with light spinning tackle and loving it. Usually a 5000 spinning reel on a 20-30 lb rod. The combo lends itself to light trolling lures like mini turbo slammers and 4in squid skirts. Makes Mahi and Blackfin fishing a blast for the kids!!!! Take care. Jay
Hi jay, thanks a million for watching and sharing. I'm the same way with the light gear. I've beefed it up a little, because the billfish are destroying me. Keep hooking marlin and sailfish. It's confusing how the sails are out in 800 ft, I'm used to seeing them over the reef. The white marlin aren't so bad, it's the blue's I can't control on the spinners. I remember when I first discovered the mini turbo slammers, changed my whole fishing game, always torn between deciding a slammer or a skirt??? Thanks for always being here and supporting the channel. I truly appreciate it. Couldn't do this without you. Tight lines & take care ;)
Thanks for the heads up for this video. I'm 12 hours ahead so got to enjoy the video with my morning Balinese coffee.
On a sad note the Indonesian submarine was found with help from a deep diving camera brought down from Singapore. It apparently broke up into at least three pieces and pretty obvious no chance of survivors. I live about twenty miles from the location where she made her last dive so I won't be going out any time soon. They were a great bunch of young sailors who loved to sing and play guitar to pass time the time. It's a real tragedy. Please take care out on the water guys because the ocean doesn't forgive mistakes and Davy Jones locker always has room for another soul.
Thanks a million for watching and keeping us updated with the facts on the sub. It's a sad situation. I feel horrible for the families of everyone involved. Young heroes putting their lives at risk, gone too soon. you are right, the ocean is very unforgiving, and is a place you must respect or suffer the consequences. Thanks again for your support of the channel, hope better days come to you soon. Take care my friend :)
Rest in place, sailors.
That guy has the whole dam ocean, and still manages to bump into someone lmao just your luck huh hahaha but awesome catches bro, i need to try this one day!! i feel that i can now haha
Nice too see I am not the only one who gets his lines run over, 3 times in the last 2 years in the wide open ocean....just makes no sense. Thank you for the great videos!
Thanks a boat load for watching and sharing. I understand going to see what's cooking with other boats way offshore, they're obviously fishing, but that guy got pretty much right up on me... was actually closer than it looked in the video. Some good old fashioned foolishness. Lucky for him, it was a solo dolphin and he was fishing for water. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly appreciate it, wouldn't be here without you. Tight lines & take care ;)
I learned a lot with your channel, thank you. for all
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some excellent feedback. I truly appreciate it and your support for the channel. Makes all the endless effort and sleepless nights 100% worthwhile. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
I love it I fish in a little boat about 17 ft and it's the same thing every time you hook a fish all the big boats around you and try to push you out
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some great feedback. Yea, a little to close for comfort, not mention directly behind me. He was actually a lot closer than it looks on film. But, I wasn't about ready to let some shenanigans ruin my day. Thanks again for your support of the channel, I truly appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
Gotta love these people, let me come see what you are reeling up while I run over and cut your lines....like these is not enough ocean for everyone. Great video and content as always!
Thanks a million for watching and saying it so I don't have too. I would say it's inexperience, but I was 12 miles out where newbies and renters don't dare go. Which only leaves carelessness to blame. Regardless, all ended on a good note. Won't be the last time it happens. Thanks again for your support of the channel. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great job! Very informative!
Way to keep your calm. Some people are clueless.
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some great feedback. Yea, I'm not gonna ruin my day because of someone else's foolishness. Just shook my head and moved on. It was solo dolphin anyway, so he was wasting time. Thanks again for your support of the channel. Tight lines & take care ;)
I am gonna start posting on my channel soon and it's gonna be alot of fishing and alot of other stuff, I've never been deep sea fishing but I would love to go it looks like a good time 💯
I was genuinely looking forward to this video From your preview post. Keep it up. Loved it.
Thanks a boat load for watching and leaving some excellent feedback. I truly appreciate it and your support for the channel. Couldn't do this without you. thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great video Heath way to get it done!
Thanks a million for watching and always being here and sharing some positivity. I truly appreciate it and can't thank you enough. Sincerely. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great video! I really have great success with mini turbos too. Have you ever tried spreader bar rigs? I also have had great results with these rigs too.
Thanks a million for watching, sharing and asking a great question. When I used to fish from bigger boats I would fish with the spreader bar, used it as a teaser tool to draw in Marlin. But on my 17 footer, I shy away from it. It is a great tool of the trade though. I say, if you've got the capacity for it, then definitely. They also worked great for night trolling, with glow sticks inserted in squid heads. They would get demolished... Wow, you brought me down memory lane with this one. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly appreciate it. Couldn't do it without you. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great vid
Another great one, Heath 👍
Thanks a boat load for watching and always being here and sharing your positivity. Makes this adventure completely worthwhile. I can't thank you enough, and I couldn't get this done without you. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
Parabéns. Ótima pescaria.
Obrigado por assistir. Eu realmente aprecio seu apoio tarnslated ;)
Do you ever catch Spanish mackerel if so could you do a how to
Thanks a million for watching and asking a great question. I most certainly do catch them, and yes I will put it on my 'to do' list and develop a "How To" episode. Thanks for the idea and your support for the channel. I truly appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
Thank you for making a real there’s nothing fake about you you are the real thing James is asking me when are you going to do a video about Off short Lane snapper’s
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some excellent feedback. I truly appreciate it and the compliment. Snapper fishing over the reef will be coming up soon, as they get ready feed more aggressively before the annual spawn. Probably within the next 2 months, so be on the look-out for it. Thanks again for your support of the channel. I truly appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
Another great video Heath. Love those mini billys but its been hard finding the good colors in boca...are you getting them at Rays?
You were a lot nicer to that idiot than i would have been. Why do they have to be up ur a@# when theres so much blue water!!
These boaters drive me crazy and since the covid boating explosion every idiot who can afford a boat is out there playing captain....i only go on weekdays now. Weekends are a mess!! Anyway i digress...great content Heath..say hello to the Fish Slayer!!!
Thanks a million for watching and sharing. I concur, the weekends can be out of control. I would've said inexperience played a role, but I was 12 miles out. Newbies and renters don't go there. So my best guess is it was just sheer arrogance. He was a lot closer than it looked on film. Funny thing is, as he was dropping out flat lines, he asked me if I was OK... really??? It was a solo schoolie, so the shenanigans were all in vain. The turbo slammers... I'm running into the same problem. I got the last 2 from West Marine a few weeks back. On line is tough also, try looking up Boone turbo hammer blue/silver. They are the same thing. Problem is price, I'm not paying 12 bucks for a lure that should cost 5 or 6. When I figure this mess out I'll let you know. But, Ray's has never carried them. Thanks again for always being here and supporting the channel. I truly appreciate it. Avi says "Hello there Aquaman, are you doing well?" Thanks again. See you out on the edge. Tight lines & take care ;)
Heath, I get the biggest kick out of your videos! The best teacher on the Tube. I am just an old country boy that an’t fancy. Your doing great! Just just don’t start wearing a bikini like most of the “Showdogs’ trying to have a fishing channel. LOL! Keep up the good work. Love it!
LOL, thanks a million for watching and making me laugh. Can't thank you enough for your support of the channel. Honestly, I try not to watch too much youtube, that way I can keep my ideas and production value as independently creative and original as possible. Thanks again for all you're doing to keep the channel up and running. Tight lines & take care ;)
In south florida they're like leeches offshore if they see you stopped. I was 10 miles offshore, not even catching anything on 1 of a million little paddys and a guy pulled up so close that i pitched a jig about 2 ft from his boat to get the point across.
Couldn't have said it better myself 🤣🤣🤣
13:05 When you park in the very back of the parking lot where no cars are around, and someone comes and parks right next to you.....
Correct LOL 🤣🤣🤣
Great Video.. Thanks for sharing
Thanks a million for watching and always being here. I truly appreciate it and your support for the channel. Couldn't do this without you. Thanks again for everything. Tight lines & take care ;)
thank you
No. Thank you :))))
Hi Heath, another great video, thank you ! I just went on Amazon and looked ut the Billy bait mini turbo slammer but except for the colors are they all the same ? Or is there a specific one to order ? Thank you Heath and keep up the great work !
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some great feedback. I truly appreciate it and your support for the channel. I peronally like the pearl blue ones. They seem to produce the most strikes. You can either look up Billy Bait mini turbo slammer Pearl Blue, or the other company is Boone turbo hammer Blue/silver. They should be about 5 to 8 bucks each. Don't pay more unless they are offering free shipping. Hope this helps. Thanks again. Tight lines & take care ;)
Thanks Heath another really good video!! If that googan didn't get you pissed and I know I would have said some un youtube approved words myself...lol, would you have left that mahi about 20' off the rail to see if he had friends with him? And would you have tossed your 1/2 to 1oz spro at them? Or did you have another setup to get his friends? Thank you!!
Thanks a million for watching and leaving some excellent feedback, and asking the most important question of Mahi fishing... Does it have any friends? Yes, I would have probably given it a couple of more seconds in the water, but I didn't see any others following, so I yanked him in, regardless of the other boater's shenanigans. It was a solo mahi, so "Mr. To-Close-For-Comfort" was wasting his time. And of course I have the spro ready at all times.... If a school comes around, that's how I nab the second one and really draw them in fresh and start baiting them. Thanks again for your support of the channel. Couldn't do this without you. Tight lines & take care ;)
Nice video cap,only bad,some people not respect space in South Florida.
That's pretty much the case anywhere but at least in a boat you can move away. What really sucks is when you're on the jetty and the fish are stacked up in front of you and some googan pulls up in a boat. Always keep some 100 gram metal spoons in the tackle box for just such occasions LoL.
LOL... tossing heavy weights at boats that are too close for comfort :)))))
Thanks a million for watching and always being here to support the channel. I truly appreciate it. Yea, he a bit to close and right behind me. Not really an idea maneuver, but I just shook my head moved on. It was a single dolphin, so it was a waste of his time. would've been better off trolling by me. But oh well. Thanks again for everything. Tight lines & take care ;)
Great video how far out were you Sir.
3 to 5 miles
Thank you, Teacher. You are the Best!!!. Teacher, How do you Tie the rods the Boat? What do you use? Thank You!!!
Thanks a million for watching and always being here. I truly appreciate your support for the channel. My tethers are a nylon rope with a heavy duty aluminum snap clip on one end. I use a surgeon's knot to make a loop to wrap around the cleat with a girth hitch and 3 half hitches around the snap clip. Hope this helps. Thanks again for everything, couldn't do this without you. Tight liens & take care ;)
@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Thank You, My Teacher. I appreciate all your recommendation!!!!
Great videos as always,
How far from shore did you go?
Thanks a million for watching and asking a great question. Got the tuna about 5 miles out, got the Mahi about 10 miles out... Hope this helps. Thanks again for your support of the channel, I truly appreciate it. Tight lines & take care ;)
where is a good place to launch for mahi mahi in May?
From where... south florida?
@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing yeah. i’d like to make a trip down, and never fished the area, except for a charter once
Googans are not only relegated to New England
Thanks a boat load for watching and always making me laugh with your worldly insight on how everything is applicable everywhere. Inexperience can be brutal to deal with sometimes. But I just shake my head and move on. I'm not gonna let some foolishness ruin my day. But, thanks for saying it, so I didn't have too. Tight lines & take care ;)
