I gotta say I dont care what people say.....Im a real guy...dad was commercial fisherman and ran Gulf Stream Seafood in MIami and Palm beach in the 80's and 90's.......you are spot on with this video...I live in Naples Florida now and deal with the same shit.....boat trash everywhere....real guys keep it real Captain Jeff!!!!
I swear to God this is the best YT video I've ever seen. If you ever make it to NC I owe you a steak and a fishing trip in our canals. Run That Dawg Capt.
been seeing a few big tarpon hunting in a spot that i fish at. caught a few bull black drums and permits as well as big jacks and other things. fishing from a dock. its in miami or should i say north maimi beach. alot of big blue crab aswell.
Yep, I get the same kind of hassle when I want to set my squirrel traps on Interstate 10, those damn "Recreational Vehicles" and A holes with their 18 wheelers keep running over the traps and scaring away the squirrels. Have they no respect for the heritage of the urban game trappers?
Ya know if they took out all the mega yachts and water taxis the water level would probably drop 10 feet. That would give them more space to build another sky scrapper. RTD Capt Jeff. Sorry about your luck.
Awesome video bro! I feel like I'm watching a new reality series. "The Reelguys of Ft. Lauderdale". We don't have those mega yacht problems to deal with up here in Jax. Can't wait for another opportunity to come down and fish you. Keep fighting the good fight. Run That Dog.
haha i know youre slightly kidding but holy shit i feel for you man, i live close to chicago and people just absolutely litter and ruin every place that holds fish. hope it gets better for you, cheers man
Sumt'n's up brotha ! No big poons showed up for mullet run, caught way less fish this year and worked 4 times as hard for 'em ! Good bite during the run then it shut down- off ! Plenty fish north and south but noth'n in the middle. Then again, Ft. Laud fishery's been declining for years ! Water quality, loss of FPL hot water, boat traffic, and fishing pressure in the ICW... They gone !
Hey Capt Jeff that fishing scene is "Shangadda"!! or Faccabrute!!!! Eh Paesan?? $250 million dollar yacht and he stuffs it on a sandbar. What a mamaluke!
I feel you i have fished that whole intercoastal and it has some big tarpon and big snook but they wont hit i have thrown everything at night and and day light.!The taxis fucked everything up!
Your hilarious! I felt your pain out there man, I use to live down south and I'm glad I'm not there anymore. People are everywhere and only getting worse. What kind of fishing do you do now that the run is over? Sheeps? #RTD
There are so many people on the water nowadays there's no room for the fish anymore. Went to one of my favorite old spots and there are so many new build houses that you can't get through the yards to get to the River. They have no respect for guys who have to make a living from the water.
@@1MegaTuber I don't see how that matters AFTER the billionaires have come in and changed everything. That's like saying "this was a nice park that people frequented LONG before a corporation came and turned it into a strip mall" while attempting to throw a frisby around or have a picnic in the parking lot...
So you're telling me all I have to do to make a good video is go down with my boat to the busiest spot I can find and complain about how many boats have been going through the area every day for the last twenty years? I didn't know it was that easy.
we thought about fishing that waterway but way too many ppl and yachts. It's a nice place for sight seeing but I wouldn't even bother fishing it. Your better off trying towards south near J.U.L park. Even the inlet gets rough traffic not to mention the waves.
"Bow" Thrusters. Its kind of like am jet that pushes the yacht sideways to make it easier to turn. Its rude that they use the Bow Thruster right there in his face.
19:20 Captain Jeff explaining the devastation brought to his fishery by increased boat traffic says "even the urban ospreys are agains me, did you know that the urban ospreys have actually turned off of fish and go after things like chickens, ferrets, small rats now, like a real eagle? That's 'cause there's no fish in Fort Lauderdale. But there's still ospreys." Take it from the man. 22;30 Capt. Jeff says, "You see that Pamer Johnson there. It's missing the 'O' n Johnson. That's white trash mega yacht right there. I was always brought up, you know, thinking that, maybe one day I might get a Palmer Johnson, but if I did get a Palmer Johnson it would for damn sure have the 'O' in Johnson." I believe Capt. Jeff pass his time on the water in a 20' Maritime Skiff with no bilge, no floors?, and no top. He speaks of the Palmer Johnson as a practical man. 27:00 Regarding the water taxi being the worst thing to happen to Broward county he says "The water taxi is no good for nobody. If there is that many people that want to get out on the water in Fort Lauderdale, book a fishing trip, for crying out loud, show some class,"
lol.... If you don't like the boat traffic then go somewhere else. Whining like a little girl wont make the water taxies go away and it wont bring the fish back either!!!!
LMAO....missing the O in Johnson.....sporting it proud. Mega yacht trash.....nothing like capt jeff dialog! Mega yacht drama, bowthrusters....OMG. I haven't been following lately, and what an entertaining video to catch up with. Sporting braid now? wow, I have missed some episodes!!
I wouldn't expect a toadfish back chunder.....City Limits fishing Episode? Can ya ever get on plane anywhere? Can't give up on those Ugly Stik Tiger rods huh? Hmmmmm, sporting "look at me" yellow braid? Fishing/small boat mega wealthy "Cribs & yachts" tours.....I'll go on one. More money than God down there. Yep, looks like a theme park to me. BTW< THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO YOU EVER DID.
Dude you are fishing on basically a highway. Its like hunting deer on the Turnpike. Why so surprised that urban growth fucked it up? I hope you find a more secluded area out of the city.
Blame local Gov!! JAX may not be as pretty as Tampa/miami/dade/Lauderdale, however, up here we have sanctioned areas where no new building is allowed. You can fish, hunt, or drink on a lawn chair and you'll never see some rich buster cruise through. Or a high rise codo.....
I remember a time when you could water ski around this area without worrying about other boats. Nothing you can do man. Other than become a billionaire and hire a private army. Oh, I'm sure you already know this, but if you want to put someone on nice tarpon and snook in the new river go at night. The sea wall lights behind the huge houses up and down the river are still good.
I agree and disagree with a lot of what you said. Your issues are very controversial, but no doubt many of our fisheries are being ruined due to too much traffic and pressure.
Dude the new river isn’t a river for fishing.... it’s a direct line to the shipyards. Way more important than your 14 inch snook and if you want to get technical your not supposed to be fishing in a narrow channel sooooo?
sorry to hear about your fishing spot man. i can relate. here in colorado we're getting tons of cali implants that have no other intentions but to build our state up just like cali. fucking sucks!
What was the river like 20 yrs ago? Also every reel guy like you needs to know about an awesome radio station. I'm talkin 60's-80's b side tracks, and no repeats weeks at a time. Classic rock. APP: search q100 WQON Bow thruster blues music, RTD
At 16 minutes into this video I heard a macaw squawk, I guess you can tell I like Macaws. Use to do performing parrot shows with them around the country before I got old. www.parrot-bill.net
wow that's really neat, poncho your parrot is cool. must've been nice hanging out in key west back then. esp with Jimmy buffer and Captain tony. I rode my motorcycle down there once from maine. I also visited with my ex, it's always great. maybe a little congested now.
hrusa24 We had it at it's best. When I first moved there two story houses on Caroline went for $8,000.00, now they're in the millions. Everyone knew each other by first names and now it is all a blur. Not as personal and close as it use to be, the flavor is gone, but the memories are not.

at 13:10 looks like a water safety meeting going on. always stay safe while fishing.
Only in ft lauderdale does your snook spot get bow thrusterd! Man that is RTD poetry
Your the man..Im down in Clearwater area I couldn't believe having to deal with that...Keep your head up and keep posting
it would actually be really great if you saw someone trying to fish from a megayacht. but they are probably not cool enough to try that
i love when the taxi reverses then slams on it blowing you out
+David Campione Taxis think this is Times Square. There is no reason for them to drive like that
capn Jeff needs a reality show
i saw at least 8 dogs no limit on the number of dogs at ur house
People are idiots. This is the best video on youtube.
Best video in awhile keep them coming RTD.
I was taking you seriously at first. now I am laughing with you. great stuff! say bow thruster again
been seeing a few big tarpon hunting in a spot that i fish at. caught a few bull black drums and permits as well as big jacks and other things. fishing from a dock. its in miami or should i say north maimi beach. alot of big blue crab aswell.
How do you keep your line from twisting up when you're slow trolling mullet ?
Is that a blunt at 21:15?

Put some respek on my snook spot
Ok I subbed.
Best comment ever
come over to Naples. I got some snook holes in the wealthy dock areas
Ya know if they took out all the mega yachts and water taxis the water level would probably drop 10 feet. That would give them more space to build another sky scrapper. RTD Capt Jeff. Sorry about your luck.
Feeling this episode in my bones bro.
I don't wear grundens,but I'm from here also.
The river, is the saddest
This video is amazing. It’s still funny like years later.

How can i buy one of your shirts and book a trip with you
Was that a J I saw at 13:09. RTD....
+Vic No
+themulletrun had to take care of business to put up with the bow thrusters
It's not a j it's a blunt
Vic 😂😂i rewinded to double check..love capn jeff tho
My dad would've been throwing mullet and sinkers all over the place. He used to those sinkers and shrimp at people crossing over our lines.
haha i know youre slightly kidding but holy shit i feel for you man, i live close to chicago and people just absolutely litter and ruin every place that holds fish. hope it gets better for you, cheers man
Where did the fish go?

thank you for proving it's habitat that fish ,animals need more than anything
I feel you i have fished that whole intercoastal and it has some big tarpon and big snook but they wont hit i have thrown everything at night and and day light.!The taxis fucked everything up!
I feel your pain, not much we can do about it to much $$$ out there that doesn't care.

Take the guy to a nice place to fish the mangroves.Looks like your fishing at Walt Disney in one of their water taxi ways.
+sam mich Yea no kidding. Complains that he's getting mega-yahted when he's fishing in a yaht port/channel just next to a Hilton...
@@Supernova71288 People were fishing there LONG before it became Disney On Water, morons

why do you hook the fish by the mouth
So you're telling me all I have to do to make a good video is go down with my boat to the busiest spot I can find and complain about how many boats have been going through the area every day for the last twenty years? I didn't know it was that easy.
ya dude it so easy to get youtube views anyone can do it
The obstacle is the way.
"bowthrusting the piss outta this place!!"-LOL!
we thought about fishing that waterway but way too many ppl and yachts. It's a nice place for sight seeing but I wouldn't even bother fishing it. Your better off trying towards south near J.U.L park. Even the inlet gets rough traffic not to mention the waves.
The kids are cool, the Jungle Queen gets a hall pass, the rest suck! haha
I'm not a boat guy, but what is "ball thruster"
"Bow" Thrusters. Its kind of like am jet that pushes the yacht sideways to make it easier to turn. Its rude that they use the Bow Thruster right there in his face.
+Mobile Fishing Videos oh, so doing that pushes them off coarse or pushes the fish away? Thanks lol
p.s. cookieman is obvisouly not a reel guy

Same problem in Minnesota the yachts and rich people steal all of the great fishing spots.
Get up earlier.
I'm from Minnesota too our rivers pretty great for fishing tho saint cro gets busy as shit tho
Reminds me of the movie The Warriors. " You see what you get Warriors.... You see what you get when you mess with the Orphans! lol
Awesome great videos mate. from Gold Coast Australia got out yesterday arvo local nerang river got some nice baits followed with a bull shark and a gt
+theblueboy20 Thanks for checking in mate, run that dog.
That must be the only spot on earth to fish at. Better blame commercialism for destroying it.
lol.... If you don't like the boat traffic then go somewhere else. Whining like a little girl wont make the water taxies go away and it wont bring the fish back either!!!!
maybe it will help another community from making the same mistake

34+min and no hits. Tragic.... Where is Peter Miller and the PBR shirt when you need him..
Hey looks like you're boat is part of the traffic just smaller looks like a good time LOL😃
Oh yeah I forgot. The new rods look nice. And I always laugh when I see you go by the crazy dog house. What are there like 10 dogs that live there?
+jwilson2536 At least and its been like that for 20 years
Try the storm sewers. I hear it's all the rage in Thailand.
Dude you are fishing on basically a highway. Its like hunting deer on the Turnpike. Why so surprised that urban growth fucked it up? I hope you find a more secluded area out of the city.
Capt. you are just like the lorax, except you speak for the seas.
The Kanye West of Fishing.
thanks!
Jason Jarvi, good one. True.
Blame local Gov!! JAX may not be as pretty as Tampa/miami/dade/Lauderdale, however, up here we have sanctioned areas where no new building is allowed. You can fish, hunt, or drink on a lawn chair and you'll never see some rich buster cruise through. Or a high rise codo.....
stuck like chuck!!! could not get any better
your the only one in the world who gets that worked up. it's there water too !!? enjoy it!!!
+Trophy 205 "you're", "their", and no he's not.
Kinda feel bad for captian jeff. Maybe its time to move up north.
Those ships kill more fish than you catch with a license.
*yacht goes by*"gotten any bites??!?!?!"
It's those PANTS chasing the fish away....
I remember a time when you could water ski around this area without worrying about other boats. Nothing you can do man. Other than become a billionaire and hire a private army. Oh, I'm sure you already know this, but if you want to put someone on nice tarpon and snook in the new river go at night. The sea wall lights behind the huge houses up and down the river are still good.
Overpopulation and pollution man. I heard that they used to catch redfish out in dania beach (inlet) like 30-40 years ago
Sigh. I guess you'll have to find another place to fish. What a waste of a good waterway.
I don't blame you at all they piss me off just looking at this
LOL..-Wallace never said a word....
grady vago yet he communicated alot with that grin lol.
I agree and disagree with a lot of what you said. Your issues are very controversial, but no doubt many of our fisheries are being ruined due to too much traffic and pressure.
Get me that mans address. I would love to send him a new O for his mega. That would burn him up so bad he might just move his mega to a new state LOL.
Dude the new river isn’t a river for fishing.... it’s a direct line to the shipyards. Way more important than your 14 inch snook and if you want to get technical your not supposed to be fishing in a narrow channel sooooo?
The mega yachts do that on purpose just to fuck with you? They know its your favorite fishing spot and bow thruster juist it to fuck with you?
sorry to hear about your fishing spot man. i can relate. here in colorado we're getting tons of cali implants that have no other intentions but to build our state up just like cali. fucking sucks!
What shame it is. We have to deal w/ the poachers and hillbillies up here in Central FL. Good luck this winter. RTD.

Boca is holding fish.
add a few PWC.. and youll know high blood pressure
Urban fishing is tough too many dam humanoids
+CaptainSolo Its getting bad
This guy honestly forgot to change his tampon.
Let's be real here. There are 100 billion good places to fish down around there. You can catch good shit in drainage ditches. I've done it!
if its so bsd why go and fish there?
Looks like you got dogged on you're Lunker fish I love fishing on my lake no one around its so nice.
